The years added a beauty and loveliness to her personality such as Is rarely seen and when her mortal vision failed, her great soul seemed to shine forth with a light eternal. When a young girl she came with her parents and friends from Michigan and located at Geneva where they started the town and where her father was postmaster until his death years after. And at Geneva near the old stone Congregational church she had helped to build and In which die had been a worshipper for years her funeral rites were held in the hall recently erected. After her marriage she lived for a time on a farm south of Geneva and later she moved to the farm which was her home ever afterward, near Colony, and which she helped to beautify with her busy and willing hands. For a short time she lived in Iola.

A large number of Triends assembled to pay tribute to the little mother who so faithfully, willingly and Joyfully had served her day and generation. The Rev. Millikan and Rev. E. N.

Phillips of Colony close personal friends, conducted her funeral ritfes Sunday afternoon. They spoke words of comfort to her loved ones and of her thoughtfulness of others, her helpfulness and her great Christian spirit, which permeated her thoughts and actions always. Her obituary written by herself, was read. A song of her selection by her pastor, The Old Rugged Cross, was sung by two young ladies from Colony, Misses Smith and Dickerson. The pallbearers were of her choosing, personal friends and sons of pioneer residents she had known.

They were, Elijah Banta, Perry Heath, Len Curtis, Miller. The body was taken to Geneva cemetery, followed by a cortege extending from the hall to its final resting place by the side of her husband and son. Sympathy goes out to her five sons who were so devoted to her and who cared for her every need so lovingly during the long years of her widowhood, and to her widowed sister who was unable to attend her obsequies. Length of days and honor and love was given her. The golden sunset of her life here ushered In the sunrise In glory awaiting her.

The writer as well as many others feels a personal loss In the passing A new curb on anto speeders that promises startling results Is shown In operation here the Massachusetts State College highway speed meter. As a car passes the first of the two light 'source poles shown across the road. It starts the meter and as It -passes the second, 18 Inches distant, the recording instruments operation Is stopped, giving the speed within the fraction of a mile at 30 and within two miles an hour at 60. while In service overseas, has been very ill. Mrs.

Gordon went twice last week to visit him. He was reported as unimproved. In other columns of the Register we note the passing of Mrs. Mel-cona H. Grimm at her home southeast of Neosho Falls.

After several years of falling health the end came to her life In a peaceful sleep In which she passed to the great beyond. Owing to her advanced age of 86 years her death was not unexpected. She was an Incessant toller, always busy with heart and hand and lived to enjoy the fruits of her labors on the farm which she helped to make, and the beautiful home in which she lived for so many years. She was a quiet home body, content with the services she could render to her family and neighbors. She passed her life busily in loving service to her Master.

She was a devout member of the German Lutheran church which she attended when her health would permit. Her life so graciously lived will remain with those of us who knew her, loved her and honored her righteous example, although her face we see no more. A number of friends assembled at her home for the funeral rites which were conducted by her pastor, the Rev. P. C.

Kraus of Humboldt, Friday, after which her body was placed by the side of her husband and daughter in the family lot In the Geneva cemetery. She leaves of her Immediate family two sons, Daniel, of the home, whose constant care and devotion to her lessened the sorrow of her widowhood, and Henry and Mr. Lena Bennett who live on adjoining farms. Sympathy goes out to her loved ones and genuine sorrow Is felt for the loss of one so dear and of so much help to the world In which we are now living, where faith, patience and helpfulness are so much needed. She fought a good fight, she finished her course, she kept the faith so the reward of the faithful no doubt Is her portion in the land where the sunlight never fades.

Many of the Register readers have been privileged to know Mrs. Cena Dickerson during their entire lives and ter enjoy her companionship oft-times and to us an Inexpressible feeling of. sadness and loneliness came when Saturday news came that she had passed from our sight here, and entered the beautiful life beyond. Her busy life of 88 years was so busy and happy being the center from which radiated a charm to those about her at home where she reigned as queen or wherever she happened to be.

10 EVENTS Tonight Ellis vs. Ford. Wednesday Bacon vs. Brigham. Franklin Masterson, who broke up a seven inning game with his bat about ten days ago, had the honor of ending another overtime contest last night when he singled In the last half of the sixth round to give the Bacons a 3-2 victory over the Fords and send the Truckers into a first place Twilight league tie with the Ellis Motors.

Now that they have elevated the Bacons into a first place tie the Fords can complete the Job tonight by winning over the Ellis lads and blasting the Motors out of their share of the lead. Ed Kipps left field foul line double was the beginning of the end to the V-8s and their new pitcher, Kenneth Wight, last night. Kipps hit started the Bacon sixth and there was a general feeling then that the game was near Its end. There was a Ford error next and then Masterson came through with his single to center. Big Bob Koester twirled the victory for the Trucks.

Both pitchers gave up five hits. Wight, a righthander, did a fairly good Job his debut. He walked only one and retired the side In order in three Innings.

I This structure is not of recent origin, but dates back many years to the early days of the telephone. It has lived on because it is right and in the best interest of the public. It has been fundamental in making the Bell System a distinctive American business. In the Bell System, the American Telephone Telegraph Company is the parent company, and operates the long distance lines connecting the 24 regional Bell companies. Bell Laboratories carries on the research work; Western Electric manufactures, purchases, and distributes.

Without this specialized organization back of the men and women of the Southwestern Bell, telephone service might be possible. But it could not be service as uniformly good, as quietly accurate, as far reaching, and as inexpensive as the service you know today. of these two women mentioned, who have done so much for the happiness of others and on whom we could always depend for their love, sympathy and understanding.

Koester ran Into some trouble In the Ford sixth when he hit Fielder and Ab Page singled, but there were two out and Roy Moore filed to center.

The fielding was good. Harold Shinns first basing for the Fords was probably the best defensive Job. Two hard liners were turned Into double plays. Pat Patterson and Koester were the gents who stopped them. Ed Kipp has a mashed finger on his throwing hand and is doing his outfleldlng with one paw.

'The next time White comes into me that way. hell have to fight. asserted the then cocky Werber. Werber also said that he was just warming up when he swiped 40 bases last season, and set his 1935 goal at 60. But the more heated rivalry between Werber and White failed to develop, for the very good reason that a ball player cant steal firse base.

Werber Is hitting only 244, and White was benched In favor of the reformed Gerald Walker when he couldnt lift his batting mark above .204. Clifton Dispels Doubt QWEN was ill this spring and has been In and out of the lineup, giving Flea Clifton an opportunity to prove that the Tigers werent so weak In the way of reserves as everybody imagined. Frey, the youthful Brooklyn shortstop, started out as though he Intended to take his place among the leaders in Just about everything. and the Flatbush flock slumped with him when his batting average fell to .249. Handicapped by Injuries, Higgins Is hitting only .248, and his third year with the AAAAAAAs certainly Is not turning out to be a charm.

Rolfes poor hitting has been screened by the remarkable Yankee pitching. Such a keen jude as Rogers Hornsby believed that he had the makings of a remarkable long range hitter In Clift, but the Oklahoman has failed to live up to expectations.

GYPSY NIGHT NEWS EVENTS pONNIH MACK named Hal Troeky as the most likely sue eessor of Babe Ruth in the manufacture of home runs, but the big Cleveland first baseman is hitting only 350, and some of the critics are commencing to wonder If ho might have been a one-year phenom. Trosky is only one of a number of the newer major league players who showed so much promise, but who have been unable to get go-log this season.

Bill Werber, of the Red Sox; Jo-Jo White and Marvin Owen. the Tigers: Linus Frey, of the Dodgers: Frank Higgins, of the AAAAAAAs. Red Rolfe, of the Yankees; and Hartand Clift, of the Browns, perhaps have been more disappointing to their managements than the others. Ralph Boyle and Frenchy Borda-fiaray, of- the Dodgers; Cookie Lava get to, of the Pirates; Terry Upore, of the Cardinals; Tuck Stalnback and Frank -Demaree, of the Cubs: Alan Strange, now with the Senators; Myrit Hoag, of the Yankees: Pell and At Bejma. of the Browns; and Eld Coleman, transferred from the 9 AAAAAAAs to the Browns, certainly have not looked like major league hitters this season, but none of them played such Important roles In the plans of their clubs as Werber, White, Owen, Frey, Higgins, Rolfe, and Clift.

These seven either had shown so much stuff or so much early promise that they were considered integral parts of their respective machines. Can't Steal First Base TYfERBER and White, for ex- ample, led both big leagues in stolen bases in 1334. They actually were remindful at times of the Immortal Tyrus Raymond Cobb, upsetting rival Infields with daring sprints and slides.

Yet there is an old-fashioned simplicity about the Bell System. This applies to capital structure and financial methods as well as to the nationwide plan of decentralized operation under centralized control. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company has only one class of stock and that stock is not watered. It has 675,000 stockholders living in every comer of the land. Their average holding is twenty-eight shares.

No individual ororganization owns as much as one per cent of the stock. There are no secret reserves or hidden assets. I THURSDAY ONLY! BACK AGAIN!
