Mrs. Ahl was formerly Miss Maude Ellen Ingram, daughter of the late Frank Ingram, one of Cass county's earliest pioneer families. She was born at Louisville August 2, 1S84, where she spent her life. She was 42 Scottsbluff Citizens Gas company ' years, 4 months and 27 days old. She with tn AieuioaiBt .episcopal as Louisville September 22, 1901, and continued in the faith un til the end. She was united in marriage to Ernest N. Ahl, son of Mr. aud Mrs. Henry Ahl, another early pioneer family of Cass county, on December 12, 1906. They spent the years of their married life 011 the farm and were industrious and progressive and were prospering and were blessed with a family of four fine boys when ill health came to the wife and moth er which gradually sapped her strength and vitality until at last she succumbed. She made a brave fight for her life and was aided and en couraged in every way, but death was the victor. However, the word? of the minister's text exemplifies her life. She was a gentle Christian woman, a loving wife and mother, a splendid neighbor and a true friend. Her sweet example and her tender counsel will abide with her family through all the coming years and the memory of her devotion will linger to bless them many times in their dark hours of lonliness. She was loved and re spected in the community and there was much sadness and sorrow felt when the word was passed around that she had deaetrpd this life. Besides her husband and four boys, Harold, IS; Clyde, 15; Wayne, 12; and Harry, 7, she leaves four sisters. They are Mrs. Myrtle Carter, Jopin, Mo.; Mrs. Eunice Johnson, Omaha; Mrs. Blanche Stevenson, Salt Lake City, Utah; and Mrs. Cora Barnette, Boulder, Colorado.

Declaring that banks generally are making loans on the soldier bonus certifi cates, Secretary Mellon said today he saw no need for the government going into the business of making the loans direct. The problem confronting the banks in obtaining proper identifica tion of the certificate holders would be a greater problem for the govern ment. Mr. Mellon believes, in the event of approval by congress of th; proposal before it that the treasury make direct loans. FOR SALE One hundred cordtj dry Red Oak in pole-lengths.
