Lev. A. V. Hunter as Part cf His
Discourse. Uses an Original
Poem of Much Worth.
From Monday's Daily.
Rev. A. V. Hunter Fpoke yesterday
morning at the Methodist church on
the text, "Create in Me a Clean
Heart, Oh God
Spirit Within
verse from the
and Renew a Right
Me." This familiar
51st Psalm was most
effectively interpretat ed to the audi
ence in a sermon of more than usual
strength and inspiration. The theme
announced bv the pastor for the
morning service was "The Trail of a
Lost Ideal." In closing his sermon.
Rev. Hunter emphasized the theme
by the recitation of an original poem
which follows:
vThe Trail of a Lost Ideal
Ships leave a track in the ocean.
Wheels leave a track in the sand;
Man leaves a trail where he travels,
Whether i.t be on sea. or on land.

A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray.
A tree that ma' in summer wear.
A nest of robins in her hair.
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who ultimately lives with rain.

Last Sunday Rev. W. A. Taylor
was called upon to minister at the
funeral of Mrs. Charles Klitner, of
Nehawka. and had to notify the con
gregation at Wabash of his inability
to be with them.
Mrs. Klitner was born in the east
July ID, ISalt, and departed this life
on December 1919, at her late
home at Nehawka. She is well kuown
in lodge circles in this part of the
being an organizer of the
Koyal Neighbors. She had made her
home in Nehawka for a number of
years, having lived there nearly a
quarter of a century. Previous to
that the couple made their home in
Plattsmout h for a number of years.!
Mrs. Klitner was. a most estimable
woman and gave her life for the ser
vice of others. Hers was the fra
ternal spirit and at all times did she
exemplify this by her unselfish work'
for those of her sex in her ministra
tions. The community has lost a noble
woman and the husband a most ador
able wife and companion. The fun
