BEALS, ORLIE A.—Orlie Alvin Beals was born near Polk city, Ia., March 25, 1867, and died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. George Ball at Kansas City, Mo., at 10:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 29, 1919, aged 52 years, 4 months, and 4 days.

Mr. Beals moved to Nebraska with his parents in 1869, and spent most of his life in Geneva until nine years ago when he removed to Oklahoma. Four years ago he moved to Excelsior Springs, Mo., hoping to benefit his health, and lived there until his death.

He was married to Ethelyn Spear of Geneva June 10, 1896. To this union were born three children, Frances, wife of George Ball; and Alvin and Joseph McDonald. His wife and children, mother, four sisters, and one brother are left to mourn his departure. All but one sister and his brother were present at his bedside. His father and one brother preceded him in death.

Mr. Beals was converted in Excelsior Springs, and united with the Methodist Episcopal church south two years ago.
The body was brought to Geneva Thursday evening and taken to the E.L. Cumberland home, where the funeral service was held Saturday morning at 10 a.m., conducted by Rev. R.H. Thompson of the Geneva Methodist church. Interment was in the Geneva cemetery. Among those who were here to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Houchin of Omaha, Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Chambers of Blair, Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Atkins of Kearney, Frank Beals of Mooreland, Ok., Mrs. William Carson of Edgar, Mrs. Tom Patton of Fairmont and Mrs. Daisy Cottle of Lincoln.

For many years Mr. Beals was in the barber business in Geneva, and had a friend n everyone who knew him. His disposition was sunny, and he was always spreading happiness along his way. He was for a number of years captain of Company G of the National Guard and served as chief commissary on Colonel Colby's staff. He trained the company of young women known as the Forby Guards, which took a prominent part in welcoming company G on its return from Manila.
