ago, August 2S. 1916:
There's a lonely grave not very far
from here
Lies the husband and father, we all

And underneath in his bed of sod,
with face upturned toward his God.
He sleeps in peace, a soul divine
His memory will live till the end of
our time
He has gone to rest his troubles are
DER
He is free from all sorrow and pain
The, trials of life, he so patiently
bore
Shall never disturb him again.
Sleep on, dear husband and father.
Your image wen hold in our hearts

When never more Wen part.

In loving memory of our dear mo-
ther' Mrs Alonzo H. Evans, Sr., nee
Emma Evans, who departed this life
on August so, 1947:
Today brings sad memories
or the day you went to rest,
But you'll always be remembered
BY those who loved you best.
It's lonesome here without YOU,
And sad the weary way
For life is not the same to us
Since you were called away.
The blow was sudden, the shock Sc
we're
We little thought the end so near.
And only those who'Ve lost can tell
The pain of parting without farewell.
More and more each day we miss you
Friends may think the wound is heal
ed,
But they little know the sorrow
That lies within our hearts concealed
Dearly loved and sadly missed by
her daughters, Sallie Calhoun and
Elva Bennett. 1t

Experiences
Billy Bicket, program chair

some extent of his experiences
during the Hitler regime.
His father owned and ran a
department store in a city near
Munich and had sent him to
Paris to study the operations Of
other large stores. On his re-
turn to Bavaria he was seized
by Hitler's forces and sent to
the Dachau concentration
camp. He narrated some of
the treatment he and others
experienced and told of his es-
cape from Dachau through an
Influential friend.
He finally reached Hamburg
but had to leave all money in
Germany except for $500.
With this he landed in New
York and was assisted by a
group of friends to reach Chi
cago.
Here he was given the Zion
Industries name for possible
employment, but because he
