Simple Rites Mark
Friends Farewell 10
Humorist George AIDE
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BROOK. Ind. May 20.-Beloved
George Ade, who had a unique
genius for showing people how funny
they are. was buried yesterday, but
it wasn't funeral in the ordinary
sense because the author had no
proclivity for pomp or solemnity.
Signs in closed stores in this small
Indiana town read: Gone to the
funeral" but out at Hazeldon Farms
where Mr.. Ade had lived and en-
tertained for 40 years. one of his old
friends squinted at the sky and re-
marked:
George always did have nice
weather for his parties.
His last one wasn't funereal but
still the people he grew up with and
come home to. after his peculiar
vein of literary humor had made
him famous, knew very closely what
had gone from them"
He was the most wonderful man
who ever lived" Miss Katie Krue
said. and everybody said Katie
should know because she was Mr..
AIDES housekeeper for II years.
Sometimes he'd want breakfast at
3 or o'clock in the morning, but
didn't care"
The last rites were simple and
touching, the way Mr.. AIDES Pa
bles in Slang" and the little stories
on "Artie" and DOC Horne" we're
honest and simple. Three of the
friends he made in his 78 years
talked to the crowd of neighbors
who stood on the front lawn at
Hazeldon. Each said it differently
but each said the same thing-they
were sorry George was gone.
Those who spoke were DR.. Ed
ward C. Elliott, president of Pur-
due University. Baseball Commits
sioner Kenesaw Mountain Lands
and Cartoonist John T. McCutcheon
of Chicago.
Then the Rev. Voris B. Services,
pastor of the Methodist Church in
Mr.. AIDES native Kentland, offered
a short prayer. and the casket was
carried from the house to Kentland
and the family burial plot. Mr..
Ade died Tuesday night.
There was no music to speak Of
just hundreds of birds singing In
the trees around the big English
style house and Mr. Ade would have
said that was music enough.
