Ind . Mar. 20.—(United Press) —Health authorities in Evans ville, cooperating with school officials during the recent epidemic of scarlet fever there, are commended by the state board of health iu the monthly bulletin, made public k.day. The buletin points out that a new method of combatting any communicable disease was used by the school and health ofFials. In every instance where a chf'd was absent from classes for more than one day. a health eertifioate was required before the child was re-admitted. The bulletin says: “Sixty cs -:es of scarlet fever were found by this plan that very probably otherwise would net have been discovered and placed under control." Officials of the health board recommend, the bulletin points cut. that this plan bo used in every county where any commttnkable disease is prevalent. “This plan," the bulletin says, "is recommended to health officers and school authorities everywhere as a reacncble and rational plan t > be adopted in ccnnoction with any communicable disease effecting children. The plan undcbutedly would be just as effective if carried out in factories, stores or office buildings, and would serve as a most powerful purpose in diseae control and in protection of the public in any outbreak." o— — Few Revolvers Sold i In Batholomew County t ( Columbus, Ind., Mar. 20. — (United Preet) —The people of Birtholomew county ar every law abiding, at lea.rt judging from the sale of revolvers.

OBITUARY George Henry Miller, son of Mr. and Mr» Marl Miller, was born in Preble. Preble township, Indiana, February 27, 1900. He was baptized as an infant on May «. 1900. by the Rev E W Kruse. After being instructed in the duties of our Holy Religion he was received into the membership of the local Zlou Reformed church through the rite of Confirmation, on April 5, 1914, by the Rev. L. C Hesmert. On August 25, 1919. he was united In marriage to Miss Mary Erhart. to which unton one child was b>rn. Marjor’e Joyce. Mr. Miller passed to the Realm* c.f the Great Beyond last Tuesday, March 9, 1926, -after only a few days illness of melnlngltis. He was rushed to the Adams County Memorial Hoipltal on Tuesday morning in the hope that an operation would prpve suoreesful. but before an operation could be performed the Spirit took its flight. Mr. Miller passed away in the prime of his life, having only reached the age of 26 years ami 10 days. He leaves to mourn his untimely death, his devoted wife. Mary, one daughter. Marjorie Joyce; his parent-t. Mr. and Mrs. Mart Miller; h’s parents in-law. Mr. and Mrs. J. Erhart; two brothers. Ed., of Decatur ami Elmer, of Pert Wayne; one sister, Mrs. Wa - ter Deftsch, of Celina. Ohio. One brother. Ralph, who served duing the World War. preceded him in death .a few years ago. in October. 1918. He also leaves an exceptionally large host of friends and relatives. Through the death of George Miller this community loses one of its most industrious and hopeful young men. He had a keen Insight for progressive business. He was always active in business .and was the owner of a thriving grocery store on West Monroe street He was thoroughly interested in the betterment of his heme community and solution of city problems. He was elected councilman-at-large last November by one of the large t majorities received toy any candidate iu the city election, and he was also the youngest man ever elected councilman in Decatur. At the youthful age of 26. Mr. Miller had found his plact in the busineos world and 4n the life of this 'community. We have all the reasons to believe that if death would not have intervened, he would have become one of the m, st useful anil outstanding men that this community ever produced. But the secrets of life were with God. Above all. Mr. Miller was in ideal and devoted hutband and father, having, within the last year, arranged his residence into one of the finest residences iu the city. He had plannedi to live a useful life of service together with his family and far his community, but God chose otherwise. But more than that, the departed gave evidence of the faith that was witbiu him—faith in his Lord and Savior. Jesus Christ. He was a faithful attendant at the worship services in the sanctuary and a loyal member jf the Phoebe Bible Class. He was a member of the Elks. Moose ami Knights of Pythias lodges, which orders hive assembled here to pay due respect to a friend and brother. Mr. Miller was well liked by al! those with whom ha came in contact and the community as a whole, mourn; the lose of a useful citizen, a public official, a kind neighbor and friend. The church mourns the loss of a faithful and Icyal member; the family m-iiftia the loss of .1 dear devoted son. husband, father and brother. But wo mourn not as those that have no hope. Our loss ‘is his gain. He has been promoted to a higher and more glorious service—Blessed are the dead which die in the lord, Yea, saith the Spirit, .that they may rest from their labors and their werks do follow’ them. The works of thi- useful servant will follow h:m in the lives of yiose that remain Gently, I.arti, O gently lead us. Thro, this lonely vale of tears. Thro’ the changes Thou decreed us. Till air last great changa appears. « When temptation's darts assail us. When in devious path* we stray, let thy goodness never fai lus. Lead us in thy perfect way. I In th© hour of pain and anguish. In the hour when death draws near Stjffer not our hearts to languish Suffer not our aouls to fear. , And when mortal life is ended Bid us on thy bosom rest, Till by angel band- attended IWe awake nu ing the bk t. Father, O hear me now. Father, O bear uie now, Father divine; Thou only. Thou canst see the heart’s deep agony; Help me to say to Thee, “Thy will, not j mine." O G:>d. lie thou my stay, O God, be thou my stay la this derk hear; Kindly each sorrow

I hear, Hush every troubled fear, Then lot me (till revere. t St'll own thy power; „ , t In Thee alone I trust, In Thee alone I trust. I Thou Holy One; Humbly to Thee 1 . priy That through each troubled day i Os life I still may say, "Thy will ** ’ done." —... , -o i Keel Os First Giant Electric Passenger Ship Is Laid At Newport News Newport News, Mar. 20, —Before a crowd of 20.000 persons, the keel of the first giant electric passenger ship ' wes laid here this afternoon at the plant of the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. The . vessel, which will be the largest commercial craft built in the I nited States. : will l>e the first of three sister ships. \ which will c it approximately $21,000,000. She will enter the New j orkCalfonia pos'enger trade in 1927. | The new liner will be 601 feet and ’ three inches long, 80 feet beam mid have a speed of 17 knots. 1)11 burners will furnish steam to two 9.000 horse- ' power General Electric turbine generators. which in turn will furnish the electricity tor driving the motors connected to two propellers. The elec- ' trical equipment is now being manufactured at the Schenectady works of the General Electric company. I All of the staterooms will be outside. a feature whicluwill prove popular with travelers, due to the warm ' latitudes through which the liner will pa i on her intercoasial voyages. ' It was planned at first to have only one smoke stack, but it was finally decided to have two. The added stack. 1 a dummy, will be used nly for ventil- ' ration. It also will enhance the ap- ■ pearance of the ship. Other changes in the original plans include the en1 largement of the proposed garage ' space and the side ports Passengers' ’ will be able to drive their automobile-'. onto the ship, thereby avoiding crat- 1 II I OVER 70 YEARS OF SUCCESS
