HALE'S BODY TO ARRIVE TONIGHT; RITES THURSDAY
----------
Wife Accompanies Body From Arizona.

Accompanied by Mrs. Hale and her mother, Mrs. J. C. Allen, the body of William G. Hale, associate managing editor of The Register and Tribune, is expected to arrive here from Tucson, Ariz. tonight.

Funeral services for the late editor will be held Thursday, according to information received yesterday by relatives, probably at Dunn's funeral establishment, where the body will be taken after arrival.

Mrs. H. H. Teachout, Mrs. Hale's sister, will leave this morning to meet Mrs. Hale and their mother in Kansas City. She will return with them to Des Moines tonight.

Complete arrangements for the funeral will not be announced until Mrs. Hale arrives. It was thought by relatives last night, but the Rev. Elmer Nelson Owen of St. Paul's Episcopal church was expected to preach the funeral sermon.

Mr. Hale died Saturday at Tucson, where he had gone to repair his broken health. He had been ill for ten months.
