IN MEMORIAM BERWAGNER In lovine remembrance of our dear husband and father, Clinton Ber- wager, who departed this life two years ago today, February 13, 1948. There Is someone who misses you sadly And finds the time long since you went, Peacefully sleepine. restine at last. The world's, weary troubles and trials are past. In silence he suffered.

In patience he bore. Till God called him home to suffer no more. He suffered hours, yes hours of pain, To wait for cure but all in vain. Till God alone knew what was best And called him home and gave him rest. By HIS WltE and CHILDREN.

64-fl3-lt EINSIG. In memory of our dear hus band and father, Albert Einsig, passed away two years ago, February 13, 1948. Sad and sudden was the call Of one so dearly loved by all. A bitter grief, a shock severe. It was to part with one so dear.

We often sit and think of you. And speak of how you died. To think you could not say goodby Before you closed your eyes. For all oi us you did your best. Oh, God grant you eternal rest.

Sadly missed by His Wife, MARY, and Children. CARMEN WILBUR. 64-fl3-lt MARKLE. In loving remembrance of our father, Willis Markle, who passed away five years ago, Feb. 13, 1945.
