WELL-KNOWN MAX. ACTIVES IN CHl'RCH WORK. DIES AT r;p OLD AGE. FT "I 3 i It x George Wallace. George Wallace, who died In Portland January 4. was a native of Kentucky and was 84 years 6 months and 3 days old. Mr. Wallace was born at Hunter's Bottom, Ky., July 4. 1832. and at an early age removed with his parents to Volga, Ind., where he passed the greater part of his life. On October 18. 1860, he was .married to Miss Lizzie S. Tibbets, and recently passed the 56th milestone in their wedded life. He was a lifelong member of the Advent Christian Church, and gave the site for one of the first churches of this denomination In Southern Indiana. He is sur vived by his ' wife and three daughters. Mrs. A. H. Dean of Rex. Or.; Miss Penelope M. Wal lace and Mrs. Frank W Parity of this city, and a brother. Walker Wallace, of Madison. Ind. Inter ment was made in Rose City Park Cemetery. She was released to appear for trial. but did not return. On the day set for trial, however, appeared Mrs. Pearl Daniels, a mission worker, wife of Charles W. Daniels, and informed the court that she was interested in the case because the de fendant had repeatedly represented herself to be the wife of Charles W, Daniels. It was alleged that Daniels had met the woman in Seattle; that er real name was Mrs. Charles Japhet, and that he had lived witn ner ror number of years, though not divorced from his wife. Mrs. Pearl Daniels, the true wife. made these representations to the court, and declared that her only desire was to prevent further misuse of her name. She is a mission worker, widely and favorably known in Portland, it ia said. At the failure of the bogus Mrs. Dan iels to appear, a bench warrant was is sued for her and she was again rested. Ball was fixed at $50, and was urnished by William Hedeiman. Again he failed to apsear in court. Her third arrest occurred Friday night, when she was located by Patrolmen Burkhardt and Spaugh. From the first the testimony of the efendant, and that of Andrew and William Hederman astounded the pros ecutor. Deputy City Attorney Stadter, the court and the arresting officers, For the defendant declared that she ever had been known as Lulu Daniels that she never had been arrested vagrant, and that she was not the woman sought. The Hederman brothers swore that the defendant was not the person named in the complaint and vowed that she was being unjustly tried. William Hederman denied that she was the per son for whom he had furnished bail. At the first arrest a postcard photo graph, showing the three, the defend ant and her two witnesses, in one group, had been found by Patrolman Burkhardt. This was produced. Though the likeness of all was excellent, the defendant and her witnesses testified that the woman in the picture was not the defendant. Repeatedly Judge Langgutb. warned the trio against the serious nature of perjury. "You are lying," he charged. Tell the truth while you have the chance." Mrs. Pearl Daniels, the real wife, and her sister, testified that the defendant was none other than the woman who had posed as Mrs. Lulu Daniels, who had first been arrested for vagrancy and who appeared in the picture. It was shown by the testimony of the defense, and by the finding of their mar riage certificate, that Andrew Heder man and the woman had been married in Vancouver, Wash., on December 2. As the case drew to a close, William Hederman sulkily admitted that the photo was that of the woman sought on the vagrancy charge. The three were then taken to cells, while complaints charging each with perjury were drawn by Deputy City Attorney Stad ter. They are held on perjury charges. bail in each case being fixed at $300. Business, it is said, finally resolves itself into a matter of dealing with friends. " From the first, the affairs of this Company have been conducted on that principle. We sought to obtain friendship by deserving it. . By building into our product downright wortih fertile ground for confidence and respect, the very seeds of friendship. Wc won friends to Goodyear won them in prodi gious numbers. But our purpose continued unchanged, for holding friends is as important as winning them. If you will look at a Goodyear tire, a Goodyear tube, or any of the Goodyear accessories, and learn what they mean in quality, in value, in service, you will readily understand why the friends who came to us in the early days are with us still. If you will try a Goodyear tire on your car, you will understand why these friends were joined by other friends month after month, year upon year, until the Goodyear clientele became the largest single group of tire-buyers in the world. If you will consider the growth of this business, you will realize the stupendous power of the good word spoken man to man, of the enthusiastic comment, of friendliness. And you realize, too, why we spend upon our prod uct so much of effort and of money to encourage the good word, to foster such friendliness. - "a matter of dealing, with friends." 1 Tire-buying will become that to you after your first Goodyear purchase. Whether you buy a Goodyear Fabric tire, a Good year Cord, a Heavy Tourist tube, or minor items. Each harbors the source of your greater satisfaction and our better relation Goodyear quality.
