Prominent Farmer
Claimed By Death
William Wiedmayer of Saline Township Passed Away Wednesday,
January 24.
It was with deep sorrow that the
many friends of William Wiedmayer
learned of his passing on Wednesday, TTanuary 24, after an illness of
only two weeks. His genial personality -and* kindly nature had won hitfl
many friends," and his willingness to
■render help! whenever called upon to
do 90 marked him a§ a good neighbor.  " ■■    ;   "•"*■
He was born February 3, 1875, in
Lodi township, the son of Peter arid
Dorothy TKTaercher Wiedmayer, both
of whom- died in 1-9-38. The greater
part of his life TThad been spent in the
neighborhood where he lived at the
time of his death, his home having
been the family homestead.
On March 7, 1901, he was united in
marriage with Miss Christine Hart-
mann, and to this union eight children were born. The eldest, Elsa,
(Mrs. Otto Bredernitz) passed away
twelve years ago. Almost all his life
he had been connected with St.
James' church, having been cohfirni-
ed there Palm Sunday, 18S8, andT
since then he had rendered many
services and untiring support to the
church, serving on the%hurch board
at yairious.. intervals. 7Efe; had also
served at times* 7on tbie Benton District school board.
TEPe leaves to mourn his departure,
the widow, Christine;* five sons, CTar-
ence, Edwin, iTPaul, Arthur and TRay-"
mond, and two daughters, TE^ipa,
fMrs. Arthur Alber) "and JTiorothy;
.four grandehildern; "three "brothers,.
John, Aa»qn and Alfred,* 'and..|bwH>isIsf
ters, Lydia (Mrs. Ernest Lamiparter)
and Tema. ,   _^„,  ,...'"-«   .*>
Funeral' services" were held iorThiri)
Saturday afternoon, at the residence
at 1:45 and at St. James' church at
2 o'clocTk^. Because o.f illness of the
pastor, Rev. Otto Papsdorf, the ser-"
vices were conducted by Rev, W. G-.
Mauch of Rogers Crrners, and werej
largely attended. Interment took
place in St. James' cemetery.

or did..she not?    At last we we are!    - »- :
awake tpv the cause. We saw our boys
get a troun,cing ;two weeks ago and
we still gave them a grand ol' support.
' Saline played a wonderful .game.
I'd wager ^that playing as they did
Jast week,*\we._could walk bv'eir any.
team in the state.
JIariph was by far high point man.
I lost track of the count, Nthe baskets came 'so fast. Carl Seeger was
■second, TTbelieve. All the boys played'*^ game that well deserves a compliment.    -   -      	
Tomorrow night we're ■ going to
talie Chelsea just as we did Belleville. If you want a real thrill come
and see our boys perform tomorrow
night.
Will iwe see you there? (TEf yo;u
purchase your ticket in the afternoon,^ before the game, you get a

price;) '• * "   '
As you know, the Senior play was
postponed' until a week from tomorrow. Again -I say, if you amiss
this splendid farce you're cheating
yourself.
I was requested, some time ago, to
make a.plea to the young men of Sa-
linfe. .Not knowing quite how to ap-
praeh the matter I have been unable
to make the said plea. I have more
of an understanding in the matter
"now so I am prepared to "commence"
On the topic.    It goes like this:
Tliere is a certain high school girl,
very pretty and lovely, who hasn't
had a good night's sleep in many a
moon.
Our boys just don't TSeem to be
able to resist the luscious fudge her
"little white hands?' make. For
this reason, her parents and myself
think daylight saving time should be
installed in Saline. Then many a
wandering' boy would be home an
hour earlier, thereby permitting the
said young lady a little needed rest.
Although a hankering for fudge is
much more respectable than a longing for beer or other harmful beverages, it sometimes results in trying
embarrassments. You know,
much fudge, and that green-apple,
stomachache?   Of course, that would
