The reference made to Mr. Young's career which was particularly pleasing was that delivered by Mr. Fager, who said: a solemn duty, yet I deem it privilege to be here to-night to say a few words in memory of my friend, Mr. John W. Young.

Although many ot us knew that his physical condition was in every way unfavorable, and that he seemed unconsciously to be slowly slipping away, yet how few expected the end to come so soon to this honest and faithful man. Accustomed as we have been to see his familiar face on all occasions, in which we were brought together, and knowing how faithfully and honestly he endeavored to follow out duty among us, can we realize that his voice is hushed forever and that he has gone out never to return? Honesty in its widest sense was one of his greatest characteristics. It broadened his intelligence to grasp the questions constantly brought before him, and enabled him to dispose of the vexatious routine of his office with a calmness which placed him far above the majority. The same patience with which he bore his sufferings helped him to lessen the severity of the trials and disappointments of life which come to us all. He loved, the schools and all their interests.

spent many years of his life and much labor in their behalf. He will ever be held in kindest remembrance by the teachers for his cheerful willingness to hear and encourage all who sought his counsel, and even the children will remember his kind word and smile of recognition. His kindness of heart made us all his friends and we know so well his remarkable power in adjusting differences among us, and those adjustwere always in a direction leading to what was best. He made a good director, for he was considerate of the feelings of both parent and teacher, never allowing narrow prejudice to interfere with intelligent and just judgment. As president of the board he filled the office most honorably, and as secretary he was all that could be desired.

We extend our sincerest sy m- pathy to his family. Although we know nothing we can do can mitigate their sorrow, yet his life here gives them all the assurance that the saving grace of the Saviour, in whom he put his trust, was sufficient for him." The board decided to attend funeral in a body and met at the room at 4 o'clook sharp. All the flags at all the school houses were lowered to half mast during to-day.
