NECK BROKEN IN AUTO ACCIDENT

____________________________
On March 29, 1915, at Kiowa, Kansas, there was born to Mr. and Mrs. H. G. Jansen, a little girl whom they christened Mildred Doris. In 1916, Mr. and Mrs. Jansen, with their family moved to Texas county, Oklahoma, where they have lived near Guymon ever since. After Mildred Doris had reached school age, with her sister, Lucille and brother, Lawrence, she enrolled in the public schools of Guymon, where she attended until she had finished her Junior year in the Guymon High School.
Mildred was held in the highest esteem of her school mates, having won her way into their hearts by her kind and considerate life. Not only was she a favorite among her school mates, but was greatly loved and admired by her instructors, on account of her dependability and her unfaltering efforts to complete the task laid out for her to do.
At the age of about thirteen years, under the teaching and preaching of Rev. Walter Austin, she obeyed the dictates of her conscience and was led to the Throne of Grace where God forgave her sins and wrote her name in the Lamb's Book of Life after which she joined the Methodist Church at Guymon.
In the evening of May, 11th, Mildred was driving with her sister and friends in the country when an accident occurred in which she was mortally injured. She was taken to Epworth Hospital in Liberal where she lingered until about 5:15 o'clock Sunday evening, May 15, when God relieved her suffering and took her home.
Sad funeral rites were held for Mildred last Tuesday afternoon at two thirty o'clock, at her church home, the Methodist Episcopal church. A large procession of sorrowing relatives and friends followed the remains to the Guymon cemetery where burial was made at the close of a brief service.
