OBITUARY
Robert Seliuletcr. son of Henry
and Martha Schuleter was born near
Murdock, Nebr., Sept. 23, 1914, and
died April 2S, 1937 at home at the
age of 2i' years, 7 months and 5
CilVo,
He accepted Christ in his early
boyhood and became a member of
the Callahan church in which faith
and loyalty he continued to live and
dit d. He was the president of the
Young People's society, also treasurer
of the Sunday school. He was a I
member of the choir and the boy's
quartet and always was in his place,
loving to sing and work forthe ex
tension of God's Kingdom. His ser
vices have been greatly appreciated
by the entire church. He always
took his responsibilities seriously
and gave his best to them, realizing
he was not doing it unto himself but
in the promotion of God's work.
Never once did he refuse to accept
his work delegated to him by his
pastor, and always ready to discuss
life's problems.
Robert we will miss you. But we
pledge our allegiance now in a new
consecration to the unfinished task
because your life has been a beau
tiful example to us all.
He leaves to mourn his untimely
death his parents, sister Elsie and
many relatives and friends. )
His journey in this life is ended
and in the next it has begun. What
a joy it is as we lay our loved ones
away that wc unow of a city whose
maker and builder is God, where we
shrll meet our loved ones again.
Funeral services were held Sunday
afternoon at the Callahan church
conducted by Rev. F. C. Weber. The
entire church including the base
ment was crowded to its fullest
capacity. Interment was made in
the cemetery by the church.
See the goods you tuy. Catalog
descriptions are alluring enough,
but how about the goods when
you get them?

It is carried
out just like a regular radio broad-

and two radio speakers just like the j
ones Ui:ed in regular radios
The

ically recite Twinkle, Twinkle, Little
Star.
Buck Benny doesn't ride in this,
but Little Nell, the hitchhiker's
daughter, is again pursued by the
villain, Dirty Dan. Alice Woster is
the heroine, Carl Keil is her father,
the hitchhiker, Dick Biack as Little
Georgie, rescues Little Nell from the
clutches of. Dirty Dan. Hilt Martini
is Diamond Lil, the barmaid, and1
Dick Edwards the bartender in the;
village saloon. O. C. Hudson per
