eight years old, of Mr. and Mrs.
Bert Bennett. He was struck by a
car as he was crossing the highway
at his home Monday. The car was
driven by C. H. Ludberg Jr. of Spo
kane. Funeral services for Jesse Ben
nett were held Sunday afternoon
at 2:30 at the church with Rev. Mr.
Miller in charge. A choir sang sev
eral selections. Pallbearers were
Marvin Ransier, Vernon Root, Dei
bert Wetherell and Kenneth Dug
Ban. Interment was made in the
Boardman cemetery. Jesse was born
March, 1921, at Willow creek and
died Monday, Sept 2, 1929, when j
struck by a car driven by C. H.
Ludberg Jr. of Spokane, as he start
ed across the highway from his
home at Messner. The lad had
waited for one of the big auto
stages to pass but failed to see the
car which struck him in spite of the
efforts of Mr. Ludberg to swerve
and avoid striking him. The little
body was carried some distance be
fore the driver was able to stop.
Jesse is survived by his parents,
his grandparents, H. C. Ellis and

living at Messner and child-like
they do run back and forth across

the highway in spite of the many
warnings. It was at practically the
same spot that little Jack Clark was
killed when struck by a car driven
by N. W. Broome three years ago.

A farmer near Schuylerville, N. Y., has found a new and good use for
old automobile license plates. In the case of ugly or unruly cattle that
often go on rampages, the plate is fastened through the animal's lips
and horns, across his eyes. Loss of sight seems to take much of their
ambition away and they become peaceable.
