•%1N MEMORIAM

Samuel B. Souder, son of Solomon and Mary Jane, Souder, was born January 5, 1852. Died August 10, 1912, at the,age of 60 years, 7 months and 5 days. He was converted and joined the Methodist Episcopal church at Ball's Chapel, Rush county, Ind., when he was 16 years of age, and lived a consistent Christian life until called away by death.

He was a maji of few words, but he lived a life that spoke louder than words, for every day his life was a sermon. He was respected by all who knew about him, and loved by all who really knew him.

He was united in marriage to Laura F. Powell, "February 1, 1877, at the home of the bride by Rev. Sisson. To this union no children were born, but their niece, Marie Leisure, has made her home with them since the death of her mother twelve years ago. .Besides the wife and niece, he leaves one sister, Mrs. Martha Leisure, of Rush county, and three brothers, John W., of Kennard Noah M., of Knightstown, and James H., of near Greenfield, and a host of other relatives and friends to mourn his departure.

The Revelator surely had reference to such as Bro. Souder when he said: "Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord yea saith the Spirit from henceforth, for they rest from their labors, and their works do follow them."

May our own faith be like his, and may we so live that we, too, will not be frightened by the chill of death.

Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me] And may there be no moaning at the bar

When I put out to sea. _-,r ,iV But such a tide as moving seems asleep,

Too full for sound or foam, When that which drew from out the boundless deep,

Turns again .home.

Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark, And may there be no sadness of •a farewell,

When I embark.

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place, The flood may bear me far, I hope to see my Pilot face to face

When I have crossed the bar." d-w

It Sometimes Rains

The only monkey barbers in the world are coming to Greenfield on Tuesday, August 27th, when Gentry Brothers' All New Feature shows will give two performances in this city. These monkeys are trained to enact scenes common in a barber shop. The comical situations which develop as a result of monkey nature are indeed laughable.

When the barber shop opens an "old gentleman" monkey, in all dignity, walks in. He takes his seat in a chair and tells the monkey barber he wants a shave. After placing the towel at his throat the barber decides he needs a hair cut. In the difference of opinion which follows, the monkey barber gets angry. He fills the patron's mouth full of soap suds. Then he catches up an enormous pair of shears, and the damage he w6uld do is checked by the timely arrival of a trainer. -This monkey barber shop scene is a most amusing presentation of animal nature. It is, however, only one of scores of unique displays, which Gentry Brothers all new feature shows offer this season. For this day only admission is reduced to 25 and 35 cents.

IT is easy sailing in fair weather. With a fair income anyone can get along for the present happy-go-lucky, letting tomorrow take care of itself. But the day may come when the income stops, or sickness or de.ath absorbs it. What then? Then there's old age. Are you smart enough to overcome that? Isn't it up to you to stop and think about the "rainy day?" Sometimes it rains, sometimes it pours. The time will come when you will need an umbrella. You can't always get in out of the wet. Right then your best umbrella will consist of a stiff upper lip and a bank account. Better Start Now!
