With the Savior he adored.
Dearest Walter, how we miss you
And our loss we deeply feel
But 'tis God who hath bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Farewell Walter, but not forever
There will be a glorious morn
Tho on this earth I can see you no

I’ll see you on the resurrection
morn.
Though I cannot see you in person
I’ve seen your soul laid bare,
I’ll call to that faraway valley,
For I know that you are there.

THE TOWN TATTLfcR
The two hombres who are
“swearing off” the fairer sex for
the year 1934 won’t cause us to
lose muoh slumber, for they have
formed the habit of doing just
that thing every time they see
their favorite fern dated with an
other guy. So girls don’t feel
downcast for New Year’s resolu
tions such as those are made to be
broken—and with pleasure . . .
The actions of oue of our popular
gas station operators toward two
fair young ladies who stopped to
“gas” with him carried us back to
the middle ages when gallant
knights rode charging white steeds
and fought duels for their fair
lady’s hand. We expected at any
moment to see him shed his coat
and lay it across a muddy place
so as to prevent her dainty feet
from coming in contact with the
lowly earth . . . Another scene
taking place in front of one of our
meat markets showed several of
our “gallat knights” fighting for
the right to talk to a "fair lady”
who was seated in a “Model A”
and seemed to enjoy the entire
procedure much to the discomfort
of the young butcher. Oh well,
some one has said that history re
peats itself and if this be true we
believe that it won’t be long before
knighthood will begin to blossom
again ... Its very interesting to
see the things that one young gent
gathered in the back of his car
while motoring around over the
country; its everything from girls
to drinking glasses.. . . One hand
some gent seems to be rushing
all the ferns from the looks of
things at church—and we wonder
who the nice, little gjirl he showed
so much interest in at the ball
game could be?
