Qb *e. 20, 1924 the Death Aa
gel vis4ed or Hoik Circle and took
M Fsrther and Grandfather,
Elmfca L. Dent.
0k! kw he in missed; it is so sad
te lw we will never go t*o Grand
pa’s aayniare; having lived in the
hoase with him eight or ten years,
w f#l the lViss more deeply; hr
was always kind and good to u.
in the time I spent with him I never
heard him say harm of anyone am
if he kad any enemies it is more
than I knew of. Every night he
would ask the I,#rd to Bless him and
the whde community.
He bore his sufferings so bravely,
telling us that if he should die, not
to grieve for him, that he was going
to rest; the latter part of his illness
he seemed to realize that he couldn’t
get well and woald call us to his
bedside, just to have us near him
and hold his hand wh'-n he didn’t
#e>l able to talk.
He was a member of the Metho
dist church and has been a Mason
longer than we can remember and
never missed a meeting of his Lodge
when he was able to go.
He was laid to rest December 21
1024, by members of the Lodge h
loved so well, to await tie dawning
of the day when God will call hi
children Home.
May we all meet him there.

A New Year
Mortal man is annually inspired with the advent of a New Year.
It is human nature —and it is good. For many it has marked aturn
ing point for better times.
A little keen study of such lives soon discloses the secret
of success. It is energy, plus will-to-achieve, plus moderation in
daily living, plus a saving of part of that acquired.
In this civilization, mono; 7 is our method of exchange. The
man with a bank account is a belter workman because his mind is
free to achieve and enjoy better things.
You know the truth of these statements. Why don't you re
solve now to make 1925 a more sue cessful y ur? This Institution is
willing and anxious to assist and serve v u.
