OBITUARY ’ Charles William, son of John and Ida Everhart, was born in Monroe, Ind’ana. Oct. 16. ISB7. He had an as-

faction t>hat prevented a normal j mental development. He had only, the mind of a child. But childhood I innocence and sincerity, have received such a commendation from our Savior as to give us comfort and as- 1 surance as to his future. For Jesus said “Except ye be converted and become as little children ye can in no' wise enter the kingdom of heaven ” But in spite of his handicap Charley was kindly dispositioned. He loved everybody and hated to see anyone mistreated. His attachment for his mother who was his constant companion always remaned childlike and sincere. He was also greatly attached to his dog, which was also a constant playmate The dog was thus so attached to him that evidence indicates he died of a broken heart the next day after he d'scovered the loss of his master.

One of Charley's favorite play things was the American flag which he loved with a true childlike patriotism. and so far as could be observed with all his playing with the flag, he was true to the soldier spirit and never allowed one to touch the ground. He passed away at the home of his parents in Monroe, after a brief illness on Oct. 18. 1924, at the age cf 37 years and 2 days. He seemingly became conscious of the fact

But they need not mourn as those that have no hope. The dear Lord's Iwst interpreters Are humble, human souls.
