not been real well. About three
weeks ago he suffered an attack of
illness that alarmed his relatives and
friends, but from this attack he
seemed to recover to well nigh his
usual strength. But his recovery
proved to be more apparent than
real.'
Friday afternoon, July 31, he suf-
fered a paralytic stroke that left him
unconscious to the end, two days later.
John M. Huse was bom in Hede-
marken, Norway, May 16, 1869. He
thus reached the age of 77 years, two
months and sixteen days. When an
infant he was brought into the Chris-
tian fold through the sacrament of
baptism and later after receiving in'
struction in the elements of Christian
truth, he was confirmed in the church
of his native parish at the age of
about 15 years.
In 1881 Mr. Huse left his native
land for America and landing in New
York, he proceeded at once to Bos-
que County, Texas. In 1884 he was
united in marriage to Miss Olive
Aasgaard. The two settled west of
Norse at the present home of Mr. and
Mrs. Glenn Ringness. After two years
they moved to Waco, but after one
year returned to the Norse commun-
ity and settled on the farm in the
Neill’s Creek valleyi where he con-
tinued to reside until a short time
ago.
Mrs. Huse died in 1926. This was a
great loss to the man now along in
years. His good and efficient help and
counselor had been removed and no
one could take her place. Up to that
time Mr. Huse had been active in the
affairs of the community and the
church, but since then he more and
more held back and was seldom seen
away from home. He was kind, con-
siderate and generous and will long
be missed by those who knew him
best. ,
He leaves only one daughter, Mrs.
Chas. Gustafson, and three grandsons
and one great grandchild.
Funeral services were held Monday
morning at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. Cameron Gustafson and at the
Norse Lutheran Church with inter-
ment in the Norse cemetery. Rev. P.
E. Thorson assisted by Rev. E. R.
Larson officiated. Appropriate hymns
were sung by the church choir and
“Heaven is My Home” was beauti-
fully rendered by Miss Hannah Hoff.
Pallbearers were: Medo Johnson,
Chas. Smith, M. S. Hoel, Will John-
son, Alfred Huse, J. M. Huse.

ELIMINATE THE HITCH-HIKER
Denison Herald: According to a re-
port issued by the National highway
users conference, one-third of the
States have taken measures to keep
hitch-hikers off the highways. Four-
teen States and the District of Colum-
bia have provisions which prohibit
roadside solicitation of rides in motor
vehicles. Several States have also en-
acted laws limiting motorists’ liabil-
ity for the safety of those who be-
come their “guests” through manipu-
lation of the thumb. Five States
adopted such laws in 1935.
The hitch-hiker has not only be-
come a nuisance but he is fast be-
coming a social menace. Hardly a day
passes that we fail to read of some-
i being robbed or murdered by
some hitch-hiker to whom he has giv-
en a ride. No less than a dozen Gray-
son county people have been hijacked
by hitch-hikers during the past year.
It happens almost every week. More
than a dozen Texans have been mur-
dered by these road rats during the
past year.
Motorists ought to know better
than to give rides to hitch-hikers. But
there are always kindhearted motor-
ists who will take a chance and pick
up a fellow if he looks worthy. It is
to protect such good-natured motor-
ists that Texas needs a law against
hitch-hiking. It ought to be a law
with teeth in it. The thumb wiggler
should be driven from the highways.

WHERE CAN YOUNG PEOPLE
LOCATE?
Grayville (111.) Mercury-Independ-
ent: An editorial writer for an Illi-
nois weekly newspaper discussed re-
cently the continuance for those high
school students who are graduated in
small towns this spring.
The young folks, themselves, he con-
cluded, should be the ones to deter-
mine their future course. Those who
could financially afford it were urged
to attend college as a farther prepa-
ration for earning their way in life.
Another problem that rises at this
time of year, every year, but of more
concern during the recent depression
year, is where the graduates from a
small town is finishing either high
school or college and is ready to be-
gin work will find opportunity for
earning a livelihood.
This is not only a personal concern
of the young people but it is of deep
interest to those people who have
enough public spirit to want to see
their community progress.
In the past years, there have been
too few opportunities for the young
people in the small cities and this lack
of opportunity has sent too many high
school and college graduates who were
reared in the rural communities and
towns into the big cities.
Private initiative has not solved
this problem in the past. Since the
Government has become mor’ con-
cerned within the last few years in a
planned society and has announced
an interest in the small communities,
here is a place to start. Young peo-
ple who are ready to settle into a job
and to siart a ho ns ars a real asse:
to any small community, and most
communities need more of them.
LOSING CANDIDATES
TO CONSOLE SELVES
WITH BANQUET PLATE
McKinney* Aug. 1.—Defeated can-
didates will console themselves at a
Collin county “losers” banquet here
Monday.
“It is for the Salt Creek boys,”
explained R. R. Parker, originator of
the idea. He was unsuccessful in the
race for representative from the coun-
ty.
"We intend to show the world that
the losers are a game bunch of fel-
lows, good sports and real old-fash-
ioned, true-blue democrats,” Parker
added.
“The banquet will be strictly dutch,
with each attendant bringing along
four-bits to pay for his meal.”
