In the death of this splendid citizen the community has lost a true friend, a man of sterling worth, one who had spent more than three score years among the people of this county. First, as a child of two, as a youth, as a young man, a husband and father, and always as a man who did his best without pomp or show. Mr. Morris had been in falling health for a long time, death ending his suffering at the Milford hospital Sunday, November 25th. The remains were brought here to the home for burial beside his wife, who died four years ago last March. Funeral services for Mr. Morris were held In the Ward Chapel Tuesday at two o'clock, a blinding snow storm adding to the gloom of the sad occasion. A profusion of beautiful flowers bespoke the love and esteem In which he was held. Counselor Mark Woolsey conducted the services and a male quartet composed of Frank Smith, Milo Baker, Kent Morgan and Chase Murdock, furnished the singing. Mae C. White was at the piano. The opening song was "O, My Father." Prqyer was offered by President T. W. Gunn. The quartet sang "Tho Deepening Trials Throng Your Way." SHAVER JUBILEE SINGERS npHE SHAVER JUBILEE SINGERS have been a most popular plat-for- m attraction for the past ten years. When the radio came Into popularity a few years ago, the work of the organization attracted the attention of the management of Station WLS (Chicago), and this group of singers was asked to appear at that station. So immediate was their success that they were engaged by the broadcasting com- -' concert, which has been given for some pany for a years now. The organization will feature the old plantation melodlei and negro folk songs and spirituals. . P It O C. R A M 1.

White, who had been a childhood playmate of the deceased. He spoke feelingly of the many good traits of character possessed by Mr. Morris, and said that while he was ot a retiring nature yet was possessed of a full faith in the gospel. "God is wat-- " ching over our careers here and we will be rewarded for the good we do." "I'm A Pilgrim," was beautifully sung by Mrs. Thelma Barton. Bishop T. L. Griffiths felt it was a privilege to have the opportunity of saying a few words. He remembered well when he was a bishop of the EasJ Ward how readily the departed had always responded to any call made of him. Although he was backward it seemed to be a pleasure for him to do a thing when asked. Bishop Griffiths spoke of the Kindness to his family and called him a true friend, than which there Is nothing dearer.. The beautiful lines of "There Is No Dead," were read by President J. F. Tolton. He said that in this dispensation the Lord has revealed, to His servants, a thought similar tq that expressed in the lines. Death Is but a transition a rest for a time when they shall rise In magnificent splendor. Thoughts of this kind, promises that are made, help us to live through the sorrow of losing our loved ones. Death Is but passing to Immortality which we have inherited. The law Is Is inevitable when the time comes we must obey. Job In ages past, propounded a question that has been handed down through the ages: "If a man die shall he live again?" When the curtain of night falls and we cease to exist, is that the end of man? An All-wiProvidence has given us assurance, a spirit prompting, that this is not the end. It we had a then surely there is something beyond this life.
