Mrs. Vallery's inspiring personality will be greatly missed by all who knew her and Plattsmouth. has 'been greatly bless ed by such citizenship as she gave to it. It singeth low in every heart. We hear it each and all A song of those who answer not However we may call; They throng the silence of the breast. We see them as of yore The kind, the grave, the true, the sweet. Who walk with us no more. Tis hard to take the burden up When these have laid it down; They brighten all the joy of life. They soften every frown; But, oh. 'tis good to think of them When we are troubled sore: Thanks be to God that such have been Although they are no more. More homelike seems the vast un known, Since they are entered there; To follow them were not so hard, Wherever they may fare; They cannot be where God is not, On any sea or shore; Whate'er betides. Thy love abides, Our-God, forever more. " LARGELY ATTENDED ELKS' CARD PARTY INCOME TAXES 6 INTEREST INCREASING IN WEEK LY SOCIAL FUNCTION FOR LODGE MEMBERS. !l From Saturday's la!1v.
