Principal question-mark in the sit
uation is the degree of improvement
to a wrenched knee suffered in the
Ada game by Star orward Neil
Schmidt, if the showing of the team
against Arlington following the in
jury to Schmidt is any criterion as
to how it will perform when he is
out of the lineup.
MANY thanks to our customers for
your steady support during the
past year, and sincere wishes of the
season to all.

In Memoriam
In loving memory of our mother,
Mrs. Mary Catherine DeVier, who
departed from us three years ago,
December 28, 1943:
As we loved her so we miss her
In memory she is near
Loved, remembered, longed for
always
Brings us many a silent tear.
Sadly missed by the children
Mrs. Daisy Adams

Ernest E. DeVier
In Memoriam
In loving memory of our darling
Joyce, who passed away two years
ago, Jan. 2nd, 1945.
“Twixt you and us, beloved dear
Death’s hung a mystic screen,
Through which they say no human
eye
Hath ever, ever seen.
And yet we hear your loving voice
In every wind that blows
We see your eyes in morning skies,
Your face in every rose.
And when at twilight time we walk
Within our garden fair,
We’re not alone—ah, no, beloved—
We know your spirit’s there.
We feel your kiss upon our cheek,
The pressure of your hand,
But only those who’ve loved as we,
These things can understand.”
Sadly missed by parents and sister,
Mr. and Mrs. S. F. Nonnamaker
Mrs. R. E. Mumma
