The many friends who crowded about his casket at his funeral and the beautiful gifts last Wednesday were a testi- mony of the high esteem held ty the people for this young lad. Jack was born on July 6, 1913, in Spring- dale, Wash., and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Dalton Braddy who con- duct a grocer store at 1146 Yellowstone. Jack was playing with a football and had run into the street after the ball as an auto was passing. The driver tried his best to prevent the accident, and stopped his car within a few feet, but the boy was crushed by the rear whibel of the auto and lived only a few hours. He died on Tues- day and his funeral was held Wednesday and was conducted by Rev. L. E. Carter of the Methodist Episcopal church.

A capacity house {s expected. The church will not seat over 300 and it is expected that before the bell an- nounces the hour for the debate to begin the church will be packed to the doors. The members of the city council and the county officials are es- pecially invited. Legion Chief Guest Today of President WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.—John R.

No one can attend an Elks Memorial service without becoming a better man or woman because of that experience.
