Rex Dale Graff, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Graff was born at Farnam, Nebraska, June 20, 1922, and died, July 4, 1933 at Omaha, Nebraska at the age of eleven years. Rex had been afflicted with heart trouble for some time. On the 24th of May, he went to Omaha to be with his aunt, Mrs. Grouseman, where he received medical attention. He was a patient and cheerful lad in all his suffering, and will be greatly missed in the home and community.

Rex is survived by his parents, five sisters, two brothers, a grandmother, other relatives and many friends.

When they shall tell you I am gone,
Bow not with grief, dear heart
I shall comeback before each dawn,
As the last stars depart.

Then you shall hear my voice, be kissed
Softly as flowers caress,
And you shall think wind and mist—
Child of my happiness!

This which was granted when the drum
Called, and I went away;
Children of the shagreen eyes, I come
Between the dawn and the day!

Funeral services were held from the Orafino Evangelical church, Thursday afternoon of last week, and the body laid to rest in the Marlin Cemetery. Rev. M F. Lempke was the officiating minister. May God's grace comfort the sorrowing family.

Our most heartfelt thanks to all our friends and neighbors for their kind expressions of sympathy as well as the beautiful floral offerings tended us in the time of sadness and bereavement in the loss of our dear little son and brother.

Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Graff, and Family
