Glover sang "One Sweetly Solemn Thought" and "Abide With Me." The remains were laid away in a crypt in the Parry mausoleum in the Oron-n Point cemetery and preceding the interment a touching final service was said by Mr. Pinches. The pall bearers were Mayor E. F. Krost. Claude AUman. B. F. Hayes. Anton Korst. G. Bartholomew and M. J. Brown. The decedent was born in Aforewen, Wales,, near Ha warden Cnstle. May 17, IS 19. Had he lived until next Thursday he would have been 6S years of age. He could trace his ancentry in a clear line to the Welsh Druids a thousand years ago and was a blood relative of Sir Kdward Parry, the Arctic explorer and navigator. He was a man ef remarkable constitution and energy, due to his hardy Welsh anc.ntry. When a young man he moved to Cletheroe, Lancashire, Kngland, where he married Miss Annie Gornall who still survives him. Six children are left behind also: Percy A.. Gwendoline. Howell V.. Roy G., Vernon, and Leslie. Two daughters, Edith and Almee, preceded htm Above. Five grandchildren also bear his name. In 1S81 the family moved to Chicago and later that year to Crown Point where it has lived ever since. In England Mr. Parry became an expert worker' in stone, marble and granite and later a building contractor. Many noble edifices in Lancashire endure as testimonials of his skill. When he moved to Crown Point he engaged In the monumental business and founded the Pioneer Monumental Works which, through his tireless energy, became the leading industry of its kind In this part of the state. During the past few years he has put up many buildings in Lake county. He built the Carnegie Library in Crown Point which with many fine concrete bridges and buildings will long remain as monuments of his Industry. He had a particularly wide acquaintance all over Lake county as the attendance at his- funeral yesterday attested to and was greatly respected by all those with whom he came in contact. He was beloved by his workmen whom he treated as a fellow rather than a superior and gave privately to many charities wKich he refused to make known. He was a deep student, a lover of nature and books and as pastor of the congregation of Believers and among a

large circle of citizens will be sadly missed.

OARDAGTS

(By 1 lilted Prv-aa.) CHICAGO. May 14. Following the action of the Chicago board of trade in setting a mlximum price for July and September wheat, prices crumbled today in the pit. July- at noon was off 20 cents from Saturday's closing the maximum at $2.55, and September was off 18 cents at J2--8. . (By United Pre.) CHICAGO, May 14. All trading In wheat futures was barred for a period of two days by the Chicago board of

trade today. Existing contracts will be

permitted to be liquidated at Saturday's closing prices. The board likewise barred all trading in May corn and oats for the entire month. John P. Griffin, president of the board, in announcing this action, said it waa taken after consultation with federal agents and representatives of the allied governments. No announcement was made, as to what will conspire after the expiration of the two day period.

No matter how small the town, 'even bo diminutive from a standpoint of population that has been left off the printed maps and no matter what its dally or weekly newspaper is. whether It Is printed on a Jour-deck cylinder or a creaky and antiquated Washington liatd press, it still is the proud possessor of a traveling correspondent who is in all parts of the world- He keeps In touch with -his home town' newspaper, not through thrilling stories or events, that are making history, but more specifically with the little items of Interest that are Just what the folks at 1-ome want to read when the carrier leaves the daily paper at the door or Uncle Sam's post leaves the weekly at the R. F. I. box by the road-side. The sailor of today Is always In touch with his home town paper. He may be blissfully unconscious of the fact that he Is a travelling correspondent but he Is Just the same; for the navy department, through Its publicity bureau, has made "Jack" a gatherer and a chronicler of news that goes back to the boys In the old town like a letter to an old pal. Every ahlp of the navy carries blanks that are already to be filed up with the little items of Interest that are so much of an event In the life of a navy man and to those In the town back behind the hills. He may have excelled In some particular study or work of the ship arjd been commended; he may have made a fine showing at target practice and he may. as a firing pointer, have won the coveted navy "E". which means a whole lot to "the man behind the gun. When this does hap

pen a blank with his name, his next of kin and his home town Is filled out with an accompanying memorandum.

something like this: "This roan was the firing pointed on j No. 4 3-Inch gun of this ship which

made the highest score this year In the navy; four shots; four hits in 19 H seconds. This man was awarded the first

priie and will be awarded the navy j "R" which is a dftcoratton given only j to gunpolnters making a score of' 7:78 j hits per gun per minute. His score) was 12 35." If the proud sailor man has a poto-

graph, and It is ten to one that be has, ft Is sent along. Then as the days go by the memorandum gets to the navy publicity bureau in New York City

and from there it is sent out In a news- j

paper style to all the papers In his j

hame town and vicinity, and when he comes home he ftndes out that publlc--ty has suddenly thrown him right Into tho middle of fame. The publicity bureau has another idea in mind while getting the news from there first line of defense men Into print. The more that is printed of, the boys and of what they are doing, and of thlr triumphs In peace or their loyalty aid service In war, the more Young America is attracted to the life of a sailor and the more-qulck-ly is he made to realize his duty in responding to his country's call. The publicity bureau of the navy not only disseminates news of the service but St operates one of the largest and best equipped printing offices in New York where all Its poster and literature are printed.

DEATH OF MRS. LAUERMAN Mrs. Anthony Lauerman. 40 years old, 226 E. State street, died early this morning of a complication of diseases. She had been ill for several months.
