Bower Babe Died Sunday

Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Bower are sorrowing in the death of their infant son Paul LaVerne Bower who died Friday afternoon at their home in Washington after only five brief weeks of life on earth. The babe had been sick with whooping cough and his frail strength was only sufficient to hold off the disease for two weeks altho he had not been considered seriously ill until the last day.

Besides the parents and grandparents, a three-year-old brother Dale also survives. Another brother (sister) died only a few months ago.

The funeral services were held at the home at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon in charge of Rev. M.R. Regan after which burial was made at Grace Hill.
