H Wakefield Died Very Suddenly Seldom does any community receive a more severe shock than did the citizens of White Cloud when the word was given out that Mrs C. H, Waketield was dead. She was usually rather a strong person though for the few months past has been ailing much ot the time. However the illness which caused her deatli was of short duration. She had been suffering with a severe cold which developed into pneumonia last week Wednesday and re. suited in her death on l’alm Sunday, April 1th. Mrs. Waketield was the daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. .T. F. Mauck and was born in White Cloud, March 23, 1632. She received her education in the White Cloud public school and was when a young woman, for quite a num ber ot years an active member of the Methodist church choir and is said to have possessed an exceptionally sweet high sopra no voice. She was united in marriage to C. II. Waketield, | Sept. 26, 1662. To this union six children were born, liveot whom with her husband survive her, the youngest of which is about 18 months old. Mrs. Waketield was a woman of beautiful character who de voted her whole life to her hus band and family and was much loved by all who learned to know her. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon from the Methodist church. Rev. Hedden the pas tor, delivered a short address and paid the deceased many beautiful tributes. TheRebekak lodge of which she was a mem her escorted by the members oi the I. O. < >. F. lodge, and the members of the White Cloud band of which Mr. Waketield is leader, attended in a body. The church was tilled to its utmost with sympathising friends. The tioral offerings were both beau tiful and many. White Cloud G lobe. The deceased was a cousin of Mrs. S. L. Marts of this city and a sister of Mrs.Will Fowler formerly of this place. Workmen Entertain Friends Thursday evening the A. O. I'. W. lodge of this place enter tained the degree ot honor and several friends after a short ses sion of lodge. W. A. Greenwald and B. F. Foster each gave short addresses, j Miss Agnew sang two beautiful solos, while the high school Girl's Glee Club and the Junior orches tra added much in making the evening’s program the grand suc cess that it was. A nice lunch was served. Easter Sunday The various churches of the city observed Easter with appro priate exercises, as special sermons were delivered and elaborate pre parations were made in many in stances for the musical numbers. The churches were beautifully decorated with cut dower'9 and potted plauts and large crowds gathered at each place of worship The da y was very disagreeable, being very windy and dusty.which kept many of the older people at home. IMPRESSIVE SERVICES Beautiful Easter Service at St. Thomas Church The services at St. Thomas church on Faster day will long be remembered by the large con gregation that completely tilled the church last Sunday. At the | early celebration of the Holy 1 Eucharist at least two-thirds of 1 the members were present- The church looked beautiful with the many potted plants and cut Ilowers together with alter lights [and white and gold hangings. At 10:-I5 the great seryice of the day began. With the fir A '•trains of that ancient hymn, "Come Ye Faithful, from the rgan the long procession of the white robed choir filed in preceed • d bv the Crucifer vested in red and white. The entire service ■ was rendered with that reverence and dignity which is a feature of the Episcopal church- The Te Deum after the first lesson, was sung so well that one present said “it was as line as I ever heard in a large church in a city.” Mrs. Xeide, Miss Nickerbocker and Dr. Miner here showed their! careful rehearsing by their fine solo work. The duet by Miss | Knickerbocker and Miss Mary Paxton was beautiful. Naturally all effort had been made with the communion ser vice and it was in this part of the service that the choir displayed their long, careful training, for part of it was very difficult. The Gloria Tibi went off with a snap that was delightful. Then came the stately, reverential “Sanctue” from -Staines, the organ sottlv breathing a n accompaniment, with Mr. Frank Werner playing the violin obligato. It was grand, full of worship and devotion. Miss Jessie Paxton's singing of the “Agnue Dei," will long he re membered as well as her singing of the offertory solo- “I Am the Resurection.” The offering was beyond the expectation of the rector and ves terv as no effort had been made to make it large. St. Thomas church should feel proud of its large, well trained choir and its ability to present as good and helpful music as you will hear in the large churches in the city. ** Ladies Auxiliary Met Monday The Ladies Auxiliary to the Cemetery Association, held their annual meeting Monday afternoon at the home of Mr;..
