LUTHER OVER THE TOP
IN THE SEAL SALE
The following letter from R. E.
Luhn, Jr., executive secretary of
Oklahoma City, to Mrs. Ashton was
received last week, in regard to the
seal sale at Luther:
“Your community did better than
any other in the county. Edmond
sold a few dollars worth more of
seals but came up to nothing like the
amount you raised, proportion con-
sidered. Had all communities done
as well as yours we b weeeivleMTA
as well as yours we believe we would
have gotten the $1,000 which we
thought was reasonable from the
35,000 people living outside of Ok-
lahoma City.
Yours very truly,
R. E. LUHN, Jr.

Mrs. Kathleen Randall was born in

departed this life on Sunday, Jan. 8,
1922. She was united in marriage to
Howard C. Randall on July 24, 1921.
The marriage was performed in Okla-
homa City.
Mrs. Randall was in training at the
M. E. hospital at Guthrie for a while,
going from there to the Baptist hos-
pital in Oklahoma City, and since
that that institution is no longer an
accredited school she went to the
Shawnee hospital to complete her
work. She had passed the state
Board Examination and would have
been one of the May graduates.
She was a very dependable and
capable nurse and won hundreds of
friends among Drs., nurses and pa-
tients. Mr. Randall was in Oklaho-
City in school. Mrs. Randall passed
away at the home of h<s sister, Mrs.
Frank Tracy, 1314 W. 10th st.. after
a brief illness of 3 days. They had
four of the best doctors in the city
and two trained nurses and every-
thing possible was done to save her
life but God knew best and she passed
away at 1 p. m., Sunday.
Mrs. Randall was the adopted
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George IT ♦-
sell, formerly of Luther and was quite
well known here. Those surviving
besides her husband are her moth' r,
Mrs. Elizabeth Hutsell, two s:stors,
Mrs. Grover Vorel and Mrs. Wm. H.
Hamilton, fpur brothers, Ira, Charles,

held in Oklahoma City, Tuesday at 2
o’clock p. m., conducted by Rev. Far-
ney Hutchinson of the St. Lukes M.
E. church. The singers were also
from that church and they sang
“Abide With Me’’, “Beautiful Isle of
Somewhere” and “Some Sweet Day”,
all selected by Mrs. Randall. She
also requested these texts be used,
Mark 5-36, Matt 20-16. Thu flora!
offerings were numerous and beauti-
ful. The pall bearers were—Dr. F.
A. DeMond, Dr. Tom Lowery, Dr.
Nelson Berry, Dr. Dick Lowery, Nel-
son Brown of the Liberty National
Bank, and M. L. Isom of the Physi-
cians Exchange. Honorary pall-
bearers were the following nurses:
Miss Hite and Miss Merritt of the
Shawnee hospital and Mrs. Young.

Elizabeth Hutsell, Mrs. Wm. H.
Hamilton and daughter of Copan,
Okla., Grover Vorel and family, Mr.
