on the floor and the outcome ot the game was never in doubt despite the valiant and frant.c effoils of the Crawfordsville players to overtake the locals. Shonkwiler, veteran Greencastle guard, led the Cub offensive with 5 buckets before he l left the fray via the personal 1 foul route. Tuesday s victory marked the 4th straight ga.ne won by the I Cubs and was also the fifth win ! in the last seven encounters. I Fr.day night. Fechtman and his proteges invade Greenfield in ! what promises to be a ted hot affair. Anderson downed Greenfield by only two or three points recently and the Indians are always considered one of the better teams in Indiana basketball, so Greencastle has a job ahead

The Crawfordsville reserves defeated the Greencastle B team in a very ragged contest by the
score of 19 to 13.

Later he became identi-

Tnest buildings.
After a few yeam ..^ ieii this work to become the assistant care-taker of Forest Hill Cemetery under the supervision of the late C. F. Mathes and later Milton Klebusch. Here he spent some eighteen years of his life making many friends and winning the respect of all who knew him. He took great pleasure in trimming the grass, caring lor the flowers and making the cemetary a place of beauty. “Bill,” as he became known fur and wide, took his work and : esponsibility seriously, walked humbly with his God. , In March 1920. he accepted Christ as his savior during the Daisy Douglas Barr. Tabernacle Meetings and with his wife and faithful companion, joined the College Avenue M. E. Church which later became a part of Gobin Memorial Church, where his membership still remains. About three years ago his health began to fail and he retired from active duty. For the past two years Mr. Parrish has become interested in the work r.t “The Greencastle Bible Center,’’which is being carried on by l he Rev. Paul Robinson.
And why do our tears i-oll down And our hearts be sorely riven, For another gem in the Saviour’s
crown,
Another soul in heaven?” And as Edward Arnold on thi<l«ath of Tennyson, says: "No moaning of the bar; musical drifting, Of time’s waves, turning to the eternal sea, Death’s soft wind all thy gallant canvas lifting. And Christ thy pilot to the peace to be.” CARD OF THANKS We want to thank the friend, and neighbors for their sympathy and kindness during the | illness and death of my husband, j Especially I want to thank the: nurses and doptor at the hospit-) cl. the cemetery board for thei: thoughtfulness, Dr. McClure for his consoling words, Rev. and Mrs. Paul Robinson for their sweet songs and any others who | in any way helped to ease the
sorrow.

btcn consuming it this year. They will, however, be able to have mole meat than they aver-’ uged in the late thirties. During 1944 meat consumption in this country averaged an estimated 140 to 145 pounds for each civilian. This is a high figure com-1 pared to the average of 126' pounds per capita during the 1 i years '35 to '39. Of the three meats consumed in largest quantities beef, pom and veal, each civiljan in 1944 l.as averaged 54 pounds of beef, 74 pounds of polk, and 12 pounds of veal. Next year’s supply will allow him a larger portion of beef, considerably less pork, and about the same proportion of - veal. Beef supplies on markets j ni^t year will include more better-grade beef than they have !
tills year.
The much smaller supplies of poik predicted for next year refect the short supplies of corn and the feed prices a year ag). Farmers raise hogs according to the supply and the price of feed. In the last few months of 1945 pork will be more plentiful ou markets but still not up to supplies of recent years.
