Local Stores To
Feature Product

An entirely new and highly
practical packaging for crackers
made its first appearance in
Caldwell this week when the
Felber Biscuit Company of Co.
lumbus introduced their new A.
Pack pound box of Zesta
crackers.
Highly successful in other
markets the ZeSta 4-Pack is de-
signed to protect flavor and pre-
serve freshness long after the
box is opened. In every pound
box there are four individual
quarter-pound units, each wrap
ped in moisture-proof cello
phane. The 4-Pack allows the
homemaker to use one pack at
time and the others stay tight
ly sealed until needed.
In an effort to offer greater
cracker economy, the Zesta 4
Pack was adopted to eliminate
waste and the need to discard
weather limp crackers.

OBITUARY

William Ode DeVoll, son of
Levi and Margaret Weekley De-
Voll was born May %, 1882 on a
farm near Caldwell. His unex-
pected call from life occurred
Jan. %, 1850. During this period,
forty years were spent as a de-
voted member of the Free Meth
odist church.
Ode as he was fa1niliarly called
by all who knew him, was a
farmer and school bus contractor.
Although these are mentioned as
his livlihood, his greater interest
was the welfare of his loving
wife and family and in being a
friend with all whose path he
crossed. No words can describe
the grief which is felt by those
who no longer can receive his
friendly greetings.
Members of the immediate
family who survive are his wife,
Bellzora Wescott DeVoll; daugh-
ters, Opal Davis, Cambridge: Lois
Trace, Columbus; Ferne Fergu-
son, Akron, and one son, William
Ode DeVoll, Jr., Hamilton.
One other son who preceded
his father to his heavenly rest
was Aubrey DeVoll who died in
infancy.
Grandchildren are Dale Davis
Thomas Trace, Diane and Marcia
Ferguson; Jonathan, Marianne
and David DeVoll.
One brother, Wilbur DeVoll
Belle Valley, and two sisters
Martha Moore, Caldwell, and Ivy
Oliver, GAINESVILLE, also survive.

to the local group by HerZIe
Garrett, Marion towns h p
farmer. In his report, Mr.. Gar
rett emphasized the theme of
the Columbus meeting, Con
servation is Use Without Waste
Noble countians who were
among the two hundred super
visors and interested persons at
tending the Columbus meeting
were Herzle Garrett, Dale
Lothes and James Steiner. Mr..
Steiner is head of the local farm
conservation office.
Mr.. Garrett told the group that
no farmer should underestimate
the Importance of soil conserva-
ton. He voiced his appeal in
the following words:
Every Noble county citizen
should be aware of the import
ance of conservation education
Conservation is a patriotic duty
for without it our democratic
way will vanish. Picture a graph
with two lines draWn-one line
representing the growth in pop
ulation. This line rises continu-
ously with each succeeding year
across the graph. The other line
descends across the graph with
each additional year. It repre-
sents the loss Of productive acres
through erosion and other faulty
agricultural practices.
Each day brings us nearer to
the time when these lines will
cross-this point being when we
no longer have two acres of ara
bic land per person. Since our
nutrition experts estimate that
the products Of two acres OF
more are required to maintain {
person in health per year-the
critical crossing Of the lines or
our graph means that some are
to perish.
when that period arrives, We
shall no longer look to our lane
as the basis of security as it has
| been from the time of the found.
ing of this republic Remember
. the Land of the Free. Today
our security rests in the fertile
soil, but when there is NJ
longer enough land, security
rests in the government Those
who stand in favor with the gov
erning officials and secure ra
ton points, the licenses, tho
special permits, may eat.
when we look to our govern
ment officials, instead of to ou
land, for our security, that is to
talitarianism it is Commun
| ism. The most effective means o
combating Communism in
hungry world is conservation
with its methods of increasin
the food supply. The future o
our nation is a race betwee1
conservation and increasing pop
ulatiOns."

OBITUARY

Sarah Emma, the daughter of
Benjamin and Eliza Jane HALEY
Drake, was born in Buffalo
township, Noble county, Ohio, on
August %, 1882 and departed
this life November 81, 1949, at
the age of 81 years, two months
and 90 days.
She was united in marriage by
Rev H. A. Richardson with r.
vim R. Davis in 1908 and to this
union were born two children,
Verrill Richard, who died at the
age of four months, and Roy, of
the home. She leaves to mourn
her loss, her husband, one son,
Roy and two grandchildren, Mel
vim and Gene Davis. She also
| leaves a foster son and daugh-
ter, Junior Smithberger and
Doris Smithberger, for whom she
made a home.
I She also leaves one brother,
Charles; three sisters, Mrs. Es-
tella Danford, Mrs. Mary Cor
win and Mrs. Oracle Wheeler
Four brothers, Eathan, Elisha
Joseph and Wilbur and one sis
ter, Mrs. Lilly Danford, preceded
her in death.
Before her marriage she had
taught school in Noble county.
At an early age, she was united
with the Mt. Zion Evangelical
Lutheran church and her exam
pie of Christian faith has been
an example of service to her
Savior through the church. She
was a member of the Ladies Aid
Society of the church and had
served as president Of the society
for many years. Through her
vision, by faith and love, she
led this organization to accomp-
lish the work assigned for a
more fruitful work, furnishing a
necessary aid to the work of the
church. She was also a member
of the Keil Missionary Society
which had recently honored her
with a life membership in the
Women's Missionary Society.
For many years she served as
a teacher in various classes of
the Sunday school and had
taught the women's class the
Sunday previous to being taken
i'll. Truly, she had labored on in
carrying on the work of the
church. Her life of unselfish and
devoted service to her home, her
family, her church and commun-
ity will ever live on.
She was also a member Of the
| Daughters Of Union Veterans,
Jane Bell Tent of Sarahsville.
Taken i'll on October 25, 1949,
she was called to her reward of
eternal life with her Savior on
November q. The home, the
church and the community
mourn their loss, but with a
knowledge that it is Gods will.

WHOOPING COUGH

The past winter has been rela-
lively bad year for whooping cough
and it is still rather prevalent this
spring 1t has cycles just as other
contagious diseases. so that there
are good and bad years.
It is a very serious disease in the
infant as it is the cause of most in
FAINT deaths between one and six
months of age However, after six
months of age most children re-
cover even though they may have
had a severe case.
The recognition of whooping cough
is not always easy The disease
usually lasts about six weeks but the
typical "whoop" does not occur at
the beginning nor at the end At the
beginning. the child may act as
though he has a chest and head
cough This persists and gradually
the whooping develops, associated
with hard spells of coughing and
vomiting.
These are trying times for the
