IN MEMORY OF JOHN CAMACK Just a few lines in memory of the late Mr. John Camack as, having lived near him for a goodly number of years, we learned some of his good qualities of citizenship. He was an obliging neighbor, never known to do harm to any of his neigh, bors and when asked to help, when help was needed, responded willingly, as so did his daughter. Miss Edith. Mr. Camack lived to a ripe old age. but, as we all know, we cannot live forever in this beautiful world. Yes, beautiful world. I often wonder just how many of us ever stop to think of God's kindness and goodness, to us, in giving us so many nice things the flowers, the birds', and everything man could wish 'or. What dependent creatures we are? Let God withhold just for one year, our bounteous crops and where would we be? Every breath we breathe comes from God. We should try and remember all this. Mr. Camack was very honest and was proven in our dealings with him. Cont.
