He spent his entire life in this community and was known by all who ever had any relationship with the community. When about 18 years of age he began teaching school in Blue Creek township and taught for 21 years in the same township. A great host of folks owe a part of their education to his faithful instruction. On March 6th 1898 he married Victoria Riley and very soon moved to the farm, where he spent the remainder of his life as a farmer and teacher. in to this home came G children, 5 .< Ows-a*-.

His father, Mother, one sister Rosa Krugh and one son Don have proceeded him to the land of eternity. When 18 years of age during ' revival meeting held by W. B. Free _.d at Salem, William made a definite surrender to his heavenly Father and took up active Christianity. He joined the Salem M. E. Church. Will was raised up in a Christian home and never knew anything else but to do right. 1 am sure that the first time he went to church he did not remember, for he was carried by his mother. In a testimony he once told how he had been i brought up in the church, for his father and mother were active members of the Church, but that there came a time when he made a full surrender and I was converted. Brother Will was as I active as possible in his religious life.' He was always willing to do all he could. He was a many talant man and therefore very valuable. He has been Sunday School Superintendent, a large Part of the time in the past years and has filled the place weil. He has been treasurer ot the church much of the time and was very effective. Every-) body had confidence in him. He loved the ( hurch and was among the first to work or testify for his Master. It is useless to say that he will be misse<i. Ihe question is “How will we ever Set along without him.?" On March 29th he met with an accident that cost him his life. How uncertain is life here below, but we are sure that Will was ready to meet his ■°d at any hour ot the day or night an <l that he was ready when he fell.

STOUT WOMEN — Now Wear Same Styles As Slender Ones —— By lledda Hoyt (United Press Fashion Editor) New York —(United Press)—There ' are no longer certain styles for the stout woman. Perhaps it’s because there are rio longer stout women. At any rate, the over-developed figure now wears exactly the same type of frocks ihut her splndled-legged slater wears. The only difference being the ■dze and the leaving off of certain trimming details. Now that rounded neck lines are ousted in favor of square necks and V-shaped necks, the stout woi.tan can wear almost any of the modern dressses. Rounded neck lines were positively a bugbear fqr her while she is her best in V-shapes or square necklines. In mentioning necklines, its advisable for tho person with a short neck to avot.i the popular shoulder corsage. Where the huge-petaled flower is becoming on the slender person it is decidedly unornament".! on a larger person. Unless the hips are exceedingly out of proportion, the stout figure looks betted in gowns with a low-placed waist line for these break the figure If the hips are over-large the lines of the bodice should be cut a little full so that the upper portion of the gown will balance with the skirt portion. A softly bloused wastelinew HI often .-often the curves at the back of the body. Where the bust is broad, the bodice should always be broken in outline. Thus rever jabots, deep Vshaped from closings, vestces etc., make one appear smaller. The average plump figure can stand a snug hip

Sleeves for the plump arm should neither bo conspid msly snug not full. The h"ppv medium sleeve,-!, suggested. Long sleeves, you know, .to much toward adding an appearance of slenderness. Skirt lengths for the plump person should never be consph lously short. On the other hand, (hey should be short enough to conform with fashion without s|ioutlug antiqul'y. 1 would suggest youthful lines fir (tout women rather than matrmly lines. The more matronly we dress. It seems, the larger we look. While deesres are youthful today the’re seldom tediculotisly childish. Any figure can wear them. o : .*■ ' : ■ -ptcr Royal Arch Masons this evening April sth. All members requested to be present. L. C. Helm H. P.
