Mr. Gant's promotion will mean the advancement, of G. G. Mullendore, of Monticello to the second position in the state. He will move to Greenfield during the spring.

Greenfield. The later four years of his life were spent in Ogden, Ind., where he was the respected and accommodating agent of the T. H. I. & E. station, known by many and loved .by all for his true worth. He will be greatly missed. While his last sickness was one of great suffering, he patiently bore it all, and cheered those about him with kind and loving words. After all that gentle, willing hands could do the summons came, January 22, 1912. Without fear, he calmly gave up this life, age 78 years. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."

Miss Mayme Bockman, of this city, left this morning for Danville, where she will be united in marriage to J. E. Nelson, a prominent business mail of that city.

Your Business vs. Your Boy. Any business man would be horrified at the suggestion that he would ruin his boy by neglect that his absorption in business would result in the undoing of his own son. But it is the easiest thing in the world to forfeit a boy's confidence. It will take only a little snubbing, a little scolding, a little unkind criticism, a little nagging and unreasonableness to shut off forever any intimacy between you* and your boy.

Obituary.

On Friday night, January 5, 1912, the death angel called from the home of Clinton A. and Cora Presnall, their baby son. Chandler Adonis. who came to live with them April 4, 1911, being nine months and one day old.

Little Chandler was loved by us all for his sweet disposition and loving ways. He was placed as a beautiful bud in this home, but today he blooms as a flower in Heaven. His sufferings were intense, but that sweet disposition reigned supreme, and he bore his sufferings without a murmur.

Baby Chandler was taken from this once happy home, and we knowhe cannot return to us, yet he is not dead, just away.

He leaves a father, mother, three little sisters, and many other relatives and friends to mourn his departure.

"Farewell, Chandler, we shall miss thee Fare-thee-well for a little while, Soon in Heaven we shall meet thee

And see thy sweet and gentle smile."

Card of Thanks.

We wish to express our thanks and appreciation to our neighbors and friends who were so kind, helpful and sympathizing during the illness and at the death of our wife and mother. v-
