Obituary
John W. Barr was born at Platts
mouth, December 1, 1SC7, and died
at Whittier, Calif, June 21, 1930.
He was the son of John Wesley
Barr and Elizabeth Ann Barr from
pioneer families of Plattsmouth, and
prominent in the early days organi
zation of the Methodist Episcopal
church and Sunday school organiza
tion in eastern Nebraska. When John
was a small boy his parents estab
lished their home at Greenwood,
where he grew to manhood under
the kindly influence and teachings
of a loving Christian mother who
moulded a character of right living
and high ideals that remained with
him through life. At the age of 21
years John engaged in business with
his father for a number of years and
later engaged in ranching at Green
wood, Cass county. Neb., where he
was married in the year 1896 to
Effie J. Ewitt. Three children were
born to them, all living, who will
always have pleasant and lasting
memories of the kind and tender love
of a loving father.
Later in life he resided with his
family at University Place, Neb.,
where the family lived until going
to California in 1919.
It has been said of him, he was a
true fiend and a man loved by all
who knew him. His poise and never
complaining disposition, ever
thoughtful of others and a spirit of
enduring faith was exemplified dur
ing the last months of his life.
Those nearest to him left to mourn
their loss are his devoted wife, Effie
J. Barr, a son, Almon Barr, two
daughters, Mrs. Blanche Stoll and
Mrs. Shirley Crundall, two brothers,
Walter E. Barr and Roy A. Barr, all
of Whittier; two sisters, Mrs. R. F.

Has Good Wheat Yield.
Early last week J. C. Lemon and
son-in-law. Harry Schroeter harvest
ed their wheat crop via the combine
route and found their crop was a very
satisfactory yield and had the price
been what it seems they should have
received they were well satisfied.
However the wheat which was in
three pieces yielded respectively 32,
35 and 40 bushels. With the prices
of other things it looks like it should
have been better.
