Lester Shearer. In loving remembrance of my dear, darling Lester, who had to be taken from us so young for the cause of his country in this awful war. It makes our hearts so sad to give up a good boy like Lester, but we know our loss is God's gain. He was very faithful about his writing; he wrote every day to me if his duties permitted him to do so, and also to his dear wife and dear little boy and to his sisters. Not every mother can say that.

Home is where he hoped to come to when this awful war is over, and he looked forward so much to that day. Words cannot express how it makes our hearts so heavy, but we hope to clasp his dear hand in a better world where there is no war. I'm glad to know he had the name oi being a good soldier, and we know he was for his God, too. Here in his homes his place is vacant and it never can be filled. How we hoped for that day when he could come home to us and we could take him in our arms again.

Now we will have to wait to meet him in a better world where there will be no more tears or parting. Dearest Lester, you have left us. And so far away over seas; Our home is so dark without you, But you are always with us, You have just gone away. Dear Lester, you will never be forgotten, And will always be my dear boy, And for you our hearts are breaking. How we miss your smiling face and your home coming is more than any one can tell.

We can't understand why it had to be you, dear Lester, but we know God in Heaven knows all things best. Mother. New Bloomfield, May 2, 1945. TOWN AND COUNTY. Wentzels' Markets Wheat, corn, western oats, $1.03.

APPEAL FOR CLOTHING. A second nation-wide appeal for clothing, sponsored by the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, is being extended into every community in the United States. A survey taken by UNRRA reveals that more than 125 millions people, 30 millions of the them child ren, in war torn areas, are in dire need of clothing of every description Clean, usable, second-hand clothing from the closets of American homes is the only hope, since projected manufacture of new clothing to meet the needs is delayed because of heavy requirements of the armed forces and the normal civilian needs and de mands at home. In each community the people are asked to bring clothing to a desig nated place. In New Bloomfield this place is your own church on Sunday or at Wesley Center the Metho dist church at any time during the week.

No independant appeal will be made by individual church groups, this is a community project and cer tainly worthy of your help. Look again in your closet and see if you cannot find something more for these most unfortunate people. In New Bloomfield the work is under the chairmanship of Mrs. William Baldwin, assisted by individuals appointed in each church. Bring your clothing now.

The last date will be May 6th. Letting of School Contracts. The contracts for furnishing wood and cleaning the school grounds of the schools of N. E. Madison township will be awarded at a meeting of the School Board at the home of Mr.
