THE FAB GOT HISJIIIK THERE Didn't Have Time to Hitch Dobbin, so Got in the Shafts Himself. (Special to The Times.) Griffith, Intl., Dec. 2. "Get theie." is the motto of Mr. Uerens a farmer who hauls his milk to tho Elliot station, south of here, and last Saturday he showed his neighbors that he lives up to hts motto. He drove to the milk stand with one horse hitched to the rear of his milk wagon, while he steered the vehicle with the shafts. As a rule Mr. Bercna comes to the milk stand in tho manner of all farmers, with the horse hitchen properly, but he had to make an exception to the rule on Saturday. A"" neighbor with whom Mr. Berens had made arrangements - to take his milk to the station failed to show up In time, and Mr. Berens had to do some "tall hustling" when he heard the train whistle In the distance. His hired men and his horses were in the field, only one animal remaining In the yard. A harness was thrown on this in a Jiffy and without taking time to put It into the shaft, it was hitched to the rear axle. The horse had made the trip to the milk stand so often that no reins Avere needed to guide It. Mr. Berens got into the shaft and guided the wagon. Thanks to his presence of mind. andThe practical adherence to his motto to "get there," he reached the station on time, GARY. Miss Emily Martin spent Sunday with friends at Indiana Harbor. John D.

(Spoclal to The Times.) . Whiting, Ind.. Dec 2. The funeral of I Edward Frankowski, one of Whiting's j most popular young men and a senior ( student in the Whiting high school, took place on last Saturday morning, it ; being the largest funeral for a young : person ever held In Whiting. j Short serA-lces were held at the home by Father Skryzplnskl and two assist- ! ants, after which a procession was ! formed marching to the church, the line of march being north Oak avenue to 119th street, on White i west on 119th street to Indiana bou.evard, then south on Indiana boulevard to St. Adalbert's Polish Catholic church, where the services were held.

after which were the members of the high school in a body. They preceded a long line of carriages, being twentyfour In number, and several automomlles all carrying the mourners and friends. The line of march ended at the church, where solemn requiem high mass was celebrated at 10 o'clock, Re a. Julian Skrzynskl acted as celebrant. Rev. Felix Serocxynskl as deacon, and Rev. F. Podgorsek sub-dea-con. The sermon was preached by Re Skrzyplnski in Polish and Rev. Felix Seroczynskl in English, the latter dwelling at length on the merits of the deceased both as a student and as a faithful member of his church. Many were the tears that were shed as the j rererend gentlemen concluded their ; remarks, and with bowed heads all wended their way to the last resting place. Holy Cross cemetery, in Hammond. Edward Frankowski was the oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. K. Frankowski of 601 White Oak avenue, being the fourth Child of the family who have been called Into the great beyond. Before entering the local high school he was a student at St. Francis' college at Milwaukee, Wis. His illness, which proved to be pneumonia, deA-eloped only a week ago and was the cause of great alarm among the parents and . T

'SF friends of the young man. During ' this time two regular physicians and I a trained nurse were In attendance and in addition to Chicago specialists were called in consultation, but it was be- j yond the power of human skil lto pro- . long the young man's life, as his ysteam was still In a weakened condl- 1 tion owing to a very serious attack of typhoid fever Just one year ago. Hopes of recovery were given up on Wednes- ; day, the day of the young man's eighteentli birthday, when a celebration had ' been planned in his honor and on which i day he was to have been best man at the wedding of his cousin. He lingered, j however, until 4 a. m. Thursday mornj Ing. and Then leu tipon tne nouse a Buaaen i gloom, ' A shadow on those features fair and thin; i And softly from that huBhed and darkened room, Two angels issued, where but one went In." I The sudden taking away of the ' young man not only has cast a gloom I over the Frankowski household ami orchestra. Having also possessed great oratorical ability, he won second place In the annual preliminary contest last year. He was therefore expected to be the trongest" contender j for the honors again this ytar, and with this able representative AVhlting ; was already banking on once more i carrying off the honors. In addition to being survived by his parents the deceased leaves a brother ' and a sister to mourn his death. The family have the sympathy of the community in their bereavement. TOLLESTOW.
