In yesterday's Daily News it
was stated that plans' dnd ar
rangements were being made

to take place next week in
honor of ex-Congressman John
H. Small.
Mr. Small has served this dis

he has served it' well. There
fore, it is only fitting, and
proper that his home town
should turn out and give him
due recognition of his services
It is desired to make the oc
casion a memorable one, to
which Mr. Small can always
look back with pleasure. For
this reason it is hoped that as
many persons from the coun
try, as can possibly do so, will
be here on next Tuesday night
to join with the people of
Washington in paying honor to
Mr. Small.
When a prominent man dies,
it is the custom to eulogize him
and pay tribute to his memory.
