In times of peace, it is a , great agency of relief, with au , B r- to I . I every great appeal for relief and to prevent the suffering and death i lof those afflicted through the I visitations ot sudden disasters. > All Americans can belong to' I [ this great organization of mercy.

Chicago Reporter Is Expelled From Italy; Tenth In One Year Rome. Nov. 22. — (U.K) — Frank 1 Smothers, Rome correspondent of the Chicago Daily News, was ord- i ered today to leave Italy before i the end of the omnth. i Smothers was informed by the ( ministry of propaganda that he must leave the country because of i the “unfriendly tones of his dispatches, particularly the one of Nov. 16 concerning the ratification of the Anglo-Italian pact.” The American embassy intervened for Smothers with the foreign office. American charge d'affaires Edward Reed was informed that the order was Irrevocable. Smothers came to Rome after service in the Far East. He will leave soon for Paris to await a new assignment. He will be the 10th foreign correspondent expelled by Italy this year. ■ o IN MEMORY of FRED T. SCHURGER Once more death has called aud removed from our Association anI other member. How unbelievable and seemingly : impossible were the words: “Fred Schurger is dead" as they came to lus last Wednesday evening, for he had been at his office all that day and mingled with his friends ’ in apparently good health and in his usual Jovial manner. Fred T. Schurger was born on a farm oue mile west of Decatur, Indiana, on March 25, 1883, and I died on Wednesday evening, NoI vember 9, 1938. After completing his education he was engaged for a number of years as a salesman; I later he entered the law and abstract office of his father, the late John Schurger. as a clerk. On I September 4, 1917, he was admitted to practice law by the Adams Circuit Court, and then formed a jiartnership with his father under I the firm name of John Schurger and Son and engaged in the practice of law and abstract work. After the death of his father he continued the work for a time by ; himself, and then in 1926 he form- ' ed a partnership with E. Burt Lenhart and Henry B. Heller, under 1 the firm name of Leuhart. Heller and Schurger. Upon the death of Mr. Lenhart on January 5, 1938, ; the business was continued under j the name of Heller and Schurger. As a man and citizen Mr. Schurgier was pure in morals and pur- : pose; he was honest, pleasaut, : companionable, kind and good; his j business life was of strict integrity I and his private character was withI out blot or stain; as a lawyer he was just, careful, painstaking and a safe counselor. His love for nature and his love for his home were outstanding I characteristics of his life. He loved to roam through the woods and fields and along the streams, and as a true sportsman i to fish and hunt, and he viewed i with delight the beauties and glory of the great outdoors. | His love for his home cannot be surpassed. The house in which j ;he was born remained his home I .throughout his entire lift. Hej never married, and upon the pass-1 ing away of his father and mother, | I be and his sister, Miss Christena ' Schurger, who survives him, continued to make the old homestead their home. They not only made it their own home, but made it the home for many. From time to time they took in various chil-i , dren and gave those children the , I benefit, enjoyment and training of j ; a true Christian home. For many years this home has been unequaled for hospitality, and guests and friends aud even strangers, from far aud near, were at all times welcomed. Today, as his associates, his neighbors, and his friends assem- | ble to pay him a last honor, and . review the many splendid acts of kindness performed by him, may we be reminded that the true i meaning of life is not wealth, nor i fame, nor glory, but is summed up in the words of the Master, I “Thou shall love thy neighbor as thyself." This is the commandi ment Mr. Schurger endeavored to follow and obey, and is most clear- ■ ly exemplified by his life. With us his name shall live Through long succeeding years Embalmed with all our hearts can give Our praises and our tears. Therefore be it resolved by the Adams County Bar Association that this memorial be adopted as our tribute to the memory of Mr. Schurger; that a copy of the same be delivered to the family, and a copy be entered Tn the Order Book of our court. Respectfully submitted, Arthur E. Voglewede. John L. DeVoss, Henry B. Heller, Committee. o t TODAY'S COMMON ERROR ; Do not say. “I will try and see I | you tomorrow;” say. “try to j see you ” | • —4
