Death of Walter Engel We are sorry to chronicle the death of a fine young man in the prime of life, Mr.

Walter Engel, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Engel of Hickory Wood neighborhood, who passed away in a St. Louis hospital from kidney disease. Mr.

Engel was only 32 years of age, was successful in business, a Mason and member of the Christian Church here from early manhood. He leaves a sorrowing wife, to whom he had been married a year; his parents; two sisters in Colorado, one, Mrs. Ruhwe of St. Louis, one of Jonesburg community, Mrs. Foster Harmon; the following brothers, Tony, Henry, Reinhold, Diedrich, Johnny of Jonesburg and St.

Louis, many other relatives and friends, a number of whom with his parents, brothers and sisters atended his funeral services in St. Louis Wednesday. Three daughters of Mr. Engel have lost their husbands within a short time and now the less of their son is another great blow and irreparable loss and they have the sympathy of a host of neighbors and friends in their trouble. Accident Near High Hill A bad accident occurred at the Niemeyer place near High Hill early Monday morning when two young men, one from Chicago, whose name we have been unable to learn and who was the driver of the car, and W.

E. Broach of University City, turned the car, a Pontiac 8, 1933 model, over several times, making a bad wreck of the machine and injuring Mr. Broach, who suffered a back injury and cuts about the head. Passing motorists from South Dakota brought the men into town, where the injured one was given first aid at Dr. Ball's office and later was taken to St.

Louis by parties who drove out for him. All particulars indicate it was seemingly an avoidable accident. It might have been a lot worse. A look at the wrecked car makes one wonder that either young man escaped serious injury or death. Basket Ball Notes Our basket ball teams have been doing some good playing this season and will probably do better playing as the season advances.

In two games played with New Florence recently Jonesburg won both games. In the Boy's High School game the score was 24 to 12 in favor of our team and in the town team game the score favored Jonesburg, 22 to 16. In a contest with Wright City High School team on Wednesday night of last week the Jonesburg boys lost by a score of 9 to 12. It was a close, exciting game. Advertising in the Banner pays.
