PROMINENT FARMER AND
GOOD CITIZEN GONE

It was with sincere sorrow we
heard Of the passing of our lifelong
friend, Will Bird. Although we had
known the seriousness Of his illness
we could not think the end SO near.
His death occurred last Thursday
morning about s O'Clock, following
a long illness with heart trouble and
complications.
John William, son of John and
Elizabeth McGonagle Bird, was born
in the old house only a few yards
from where his death occurred Born
March 16, 1871; died March 13,
1941, thus lacking only three days
of attaining the three score and
ten. He was Of family of six chill

to Ruhama Hamilton. Rev. David
R. Moore, officiating To this union
were born two children, j. Howard,
of the home, and Hope, twin sister
of Howard, who died at the age Of
two years. Quiet, unassuming, his
life was devoted to his family, his
work, his community. He was slow
in deciding important questions
then he was firm in his conviction.
While member of the Mt. Zion
Methodist church all his life, his
acts of kindness. his deeds of love,
his true honesty. always went out
and beyond his profession. "a good
neighbor'-no one ever lived be-
side better neighbor, were express
sions oft spoken by those who knew
him best.

with short services at the home at
/ o'clock, with further services at

Game club are Offering to
shoot crows, where they con-
gregate. Crows go from place

who can locate where they are
roosting for the night, should
notify some member OF the
local fish and game club, and
they will muster force, go to
the roosting places, and give
the black rascals mess Of
lead.
Joe Aber and Walter Law
renee, both of this place, who
are members of the club, are
easy to contact at any time

tell them where the crows are
roosting, and they will do the
rest, and at no cost.

QUAIL IN DANGER-
ACT QUICKLY

We have it on what seems
to be good authority that the
Ohio legislature will vote next
Wednesday, March 26, on the
proposition to put Bob White
on the game bird list. If it
passes we all know what that
means-the slaughtering of
this beautiful song bird. The
northern part Of the state
which has the most votes in
the general assembly, is said
to be lining up solidly to re-
move quail from the song bird
list; and the League of Ohio
Sportsnen are for it also, SO
it looks like the quail is
doomed.
Those interested in saving
Bob White should get busy at
once-the time is very short
less than a week.
