Obituary. Charles Oscar Tallman was born March 11, 1848 in Chautauqua county, New York, and died at his home in Centralia, Kansas, April 29, 1916. He came to Kansas in 1869 and settled north of Centralia. He was united in marriage to Mary Jane Howard in 1871, and he and his family moved to Wichita sometime afterward and resided there for 30 years. They returned to Centralia when Mrs.

Tallman's mother died that they might make a home for her father whom they kindly cared for until his stay on earth was ended. Mr. Tallman was the father of ten children, seven of whom still leave and were present at the funeral, excepting the two oldest boys, one of which had just gone home a week before the father died. The children reside at the following places: Edward and Robert at Wichita, Leonard and Beatrice at Centralia, Mrs. Myrtle McFerran at Coffeyville, all in Kansas: Mrs.

Joe Compton and Ursie Tallman at Kangas City, Mo. Mr. Tallman was well known in Centralia as a good citizen, and a kind, honest man in all his dealings. He was a constant Bible reader at his home. While he was not a regular attendant at church services he always made it possible for his wife and children to engage in church work, and he encouraged them to do so.

He was a devoted husband and father. The funeral services were conducted at the home Sunday by Rev. E. 0. Raymond and Rev.

Geo. W. Browning. His body was laid to rest in the Centralia cemetery, and the community extend their sympathy to Sister Tallman and her children. Card of Thanks.

We had only a few out to Sunday School. Mr. Hazen's class has the banner for faithfulness. He had the only class of grown ups. Estey Domer, our secretary, was there as usual.

Perhaps it did not rain as hard and was not as muddy out toward Domers. The funeral of Mr. Tallman was made more sad and dreary because of the dark, dismal rainy day, but perhaps somewhere the sun was shining and they did not appreciate it. There was no Union meeting of the young people and it was all our fault. We met at 4 o'clock to complete the program, and it was still raining and we concluded that we were in for an all night rain, and decided to call it off', and then it cleared up a little later on and some were disappointed.

Very sorry, indeed. But go ahead with the Monthly Union Meetings, perhaps conditions be more favorable next time. We hope so. Our subject for next Sunday evening is "A Tight Wad 111 Hell." Better come out and hear about him. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

On account of the circus we had no high school notes last week. The Juniors took their final examination in history Wednesday. Fred reports a good time for the boys while the rest were out on the hill practicing for the May day festival. The Seniors are all busy writing their orations this week. At four o'clock last Thursday evening the Seniors and Juniors, having made all necessary preparations, called at the school house and asked Miss Hatch and Miss Followell to take a ride.

They were driven south of town several miles until a pleasant, inviting spot was found where a picnic supper was prepared. No mysterious bundles were seen until supper time, when each was asked to go to the cars and bring out whatever package he might find. If it had not been for the solid earth on which the banquet was spread we would have feared for the fate of the hungry guests. The evening was enjoyed by everyone, even if some complexions were darker than usual after their dusty ride. In returning the plants from the Congregotional church after Easter Sunday, a geranium was brought to the Journal office which does not belong here.

If you are looking for it, let us know. "Today's the first of May, May, May, today's the first of May," sang all the birds and children Monday, when the sun came out brightly after the two days rain and dried the hill until it was in good condition for the May day festivities of the The grass was green, the trees bursting into bloom, everything was bright and sweet and the children were happy. The school program was held out of doors, and began with a grand march, the children carrying May baskets filled with flowers. Then the May queen rode in in her coach, with a dear little herald on the back announcing her arrival by blasts from the horn. The coach was composed of high school girls carrying the chairs in which the childran sat, and the wheels of the coach were red and white parasols.

There were several pretty folk dances, and each room but the High school wound the the May pole, each room using 8 different dance and winding a different pattern. The exercises were very pretty and were the result of much work on the part of the teachers. At the close of the program the visitors were invited into the building to see the display of the work of the pupils. The displays were all good, some of them exceptionally fine, and the parents and friends spent an interesting hour or two looking over the work in the different rooms. May Day Festival.
