Leta's book is really some what of a memorial to her parents as it contains various clippings about them, includ-' ing both their obituaries. Mrs. Humphreys died in 1932 and Mr. Humphreys lived until Sept. 1947. He was a very important prt of life in Mor row County for the 49 years he was the proprietor of Hum phreys Drug Co. After his death Leta took ovir the drug store. Leta's lovely album should be a treasure which must be carefully guarded in the Mor row County Museum and should be enjoyed by those who view it for many years to come. Everyone who has known her and her family surely expresses sincere thanks for her work in pre serving and mounting this unusual collection of pictures, clippings and momntos.
