WINDOW BOX CONTEST Civic Committee of Woman's Club Offers Usual Frizes Prizes of five dollars each will be awarded during the coming summer to the residents of this city who have the best back yards, the beet window or porch box or the most Improved vacant lot. This contest will be held by the civic committee of the woman's club of York and the Judging will take place next August. The civic committee offers the following suggestions to persons who want to enter the contest. For the person who through lack of space or time cannot enter the backyard contest, the window or porch box contest offers a very delightful and easy field, A few hours of work the box, the purchase of four or five packets of seeds, or of email plants and enough watering throughout the sum mcr to keep the plants in good condition.

Is all that is necessary. This is not very much effort to put forth when in return one has a constant succession of bloom, and a trimming to the bouse which attracts many admiring glances. An attractive window or porch box sets a house off and distinguishes it from its neighbors quite distinctly as a beautiful costume does a woman. "The boxes are very simple to make. There are only tvo things to remember.

Paint the boards first to make them water tight and make holes in the bottom to allow for drainage. An inch ef roun material, broken crockery, broken bricks or other coarse material on the bottom of the box will aid drainage. The box should bs filled "with cood rich loam mixed with a little sand and to each bucket of earth put a piut of bone meal, thoroughly mixed."

WIFE OF WORLD'S RICHEST MAN AN INVALID FOR MANY MONTHS New York. March 12. Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, wife of the richest man In the world.

Is dead. Shew passed away suddenly today at the Rockefeller home at Pocantlco Hills after an Illness of several months at 10:20 o'clock. Mrs. Rockefeller had been In poor health for many years. She was seventy-five years old last September.

Neither John D. Rockefeller nor bis son, John D. were home when Mrs. Rockefeller died. They are now en route back to New York from Miami, Fla.

Her only daughter, Mrs. Harold F. McCoimlclc. of Chicago, Is now in Switzerland. At the time Mrs.

Mc-Cormick went abroad, there was no suspicion that Mrs. Rockefeller's illness would terminate fatally. It was stated that the Immediate cause of death was "general exhaustion," attributed to pernicious an-aemea. She had been 111 for mors than a year. Those at her bedside when death came were her sister.

Miss Lucy pel man and Mrs. E. Parmalee Prentice. John D. Rockefeller waa notified by wire at once and a message from him said that he and his son were tailing a special train at once.

They are expected to reach Pocantlco Hills tomorrow night. Meantime all funeral arrangements will be held In abeyance. Was III Last Summer Mrs. Rockefeller was precariously ill for a time last summer of the, same trouble, and It waa on this account. In a targe measure, that Rockefeller moved from his Cleveland home to hi New Tork estate.

The Rockefellers were married In 1864. News of Mrs. Rockefeller death was kept secret for a short time, In fear of the effect that It would have on the stock market because of its Influence upon the health of her husband through grief over the death of his life companion. Rumors erf the death of Mrs. Rockefeller were circulated here during the morning4, however, and at 11 o'clock they were confirmed at the Standard OH company.

This statement was Issued: -The report that Mrs. Rockefeller, Is dead is true, but we have no Information to give at preenL' Mrs- Rockefeller led the quiet, retired life of many another American wom-n. Her health has never been to her a matter of great moment. She has kept herself so much outside the puhllc view that a photograph of her was not taken. It has been said, for 50 years, until 1914, when she posed for one at the request cf her children.

Was Miss Spsiman She was Laura Celestia Speiman ne- fore her marriage, and ber home was In Cleveland, where her father. H. R. Spclman. was a merchant.

She and her hustiand were classmates at the Central High school, In Cleveland. More than 19 years ago Mrs. Rockefeller gave a reception for all the members of that class that could be gathered together. Among them were three senators Hanna, Wolcott and John P. Jones.

Mrs. Rockefeller never lost her Interest In Cleveland and she always, called It home. She spent most of her time there, for the climate In Pocantlco Hltis was not suited to her. She was a member of the Plymouth Congregational church before marriage, but she adopted her husband's denomination and Joined the EucIH Avenue Baptist church In Cleveland. Even at the time when she stayed in Pocantlco Hills she was seen Infrequently by those who live in the nlghiborhood.

She was a great lover of driving, but the automobile had little attraction for her. Her life was bound up In domestic and religious affairs and the chanties In which she was Interested were unostentatious. She confined her ministries, so far as Is known, to the sick and poor of whom she knew person- ally, itlthough many persons unac- qualnted with her have received helj at her hands. I Her family consisted of four childrenone son and three daughters. They are John D.

Rockefeller, who married a daughter of Senator Aldrich; Mrs. Charles Strong. Mrs. Alta Prentice Parmelee. of Chicago, and Mrs.

Edith Mccormick.

Mr. Bickel spoke on the theme, "The Compassion of Jesus," basing his remarks on the text, "and when he saw the muitltuoe, he was moved with compaasion upon them," Matthew ix.3t. "What we notice most of all In the life, ef Jesus," said the Rev. Mr. Biek-el, "was his tenderheartedness.

Jesus condemned many of the sins of the flesh, but he, more than any other reformer that ever lived, trusted human nature. When he saw people me beiore him in crowds, follow l.rn to the mountains and seashore, tus looked over tnem with compassion.

The Red Cross society is the result of the aenswivs-EfsM of men hearts. The church must be interested In visum- the sxk.

'The Christian who would have true rornpuasion. as Jesus had, must l- humanity as Jesus saw it with its physical neKi aud with its needs for helping people in the midst of their p.i.n and sorrow and saving them from the 'if destruction that sin brings upon them. fclie therefore practices charily, mercy and redemption." The OfYeratory solo, "My Kong Shall be of Mercy, by Huhn, was sung effectively by Mrs.

Walter Gilbert. An organ recital by Miss Lillian Jane Mer preceded the service. The two played ere: "Prelude to Lohengrin' by Wagner and "LoCyrn" by Saint Saens. DUKE STREET M. E.
