On hand ‘to greet them were the missionary’s parents, Rev. and Mrs. Roland C. Updyke, sister, Beverly Updyke, and aunts, Mrs. Ralph Frantz, Shavertown and Mrs, Walter Tworek, Sweet Valley. The Updyke family have com- pleted a second term of service in Ghana and are home for a year of furlough after working with’ the Wala people. In their study of the Wali language they have recently completed a grammer and a trans- lation of portions of the Gospel of Mark. Rev. Updyke has worked in several villages, two of which have seen church buildings erected dur- ing his ministry. One other noteworthy advance- ment was the Baptist Bible Insti- tute located at Wa, in the North- ern Region. Mr. Updyke taught two different classes last school year, Personal Evangelism and Doc- trine. Rev. and Mrs. Updyke served as houseparents for eleven missionary children, attending a small school, taught by Amelia Ridall, sent out for that ministry by ‘the Bible Protestant Church of Shickshinny. The Updykes with their three children, Amy, Beth, and Bruce, are spending a month with Rev. and Mrs. Rolamd C. TUpdyke, Sweet Valley. Early in August, they will make their home in Johnson City, N.Y, CARD OF THANKS The family of the late Mrs. Ot- telia Titus wishes to thank all those who sent cards and flowers and who offered services in a variety of ways during the recent bereave- ment. Their concern was deeply appreciated. Death brought a merciful end to. suffering and loneliness for Mrs. Elsa Schneider, 94, early Monday morning at Valley Crest. But the cruel fate which had pur- sued her for many years continued, as county officials refused to pro- vide funds for burial. A few friends sought and found a sympathetic Wilkes Barre under- taker to provide her with inter- ment, and Mr. Shepherd of Fern Knoll donated a grave as he had done for her husband. Taken to Laurytown five years ‘ago with her husband when both were unable to care for them- | selves properly, she was left with- out any survivors when her hugs- band died at Retreat a year later. Transferred to Valley Crest when the handsome structure was opened, Mrs. Schneider was happy to be I back in Wyoming Valley but longed for her old home,” still independent and indomitable as in the past. Few ever visited her but she was grateful for even an occasional caller. Poor circulation, growing steadily worse since a broken hip prevented walking, resulted in gangrene. When Mrs. Schneider was sent to General Hospital for treatment, at- tendants were amazed when she | was returned to the institution with | | nothing done to alleviate the condi- tion. i Antibiotics, tranquilizers and opiates failed to bring relief to the suffering woman, and her lucid mind faltered under the powerful dosage, Born im Germany, the daughter of a ship builder and his well born wife, the former Elsa Paderatz | grew up in culture and comfort. | The fortunes of war then sweep- lids the country resulted in the Council Of Churches Asks Help For Migrant Workers Arriving Council of Churches is asking for assistance with the Migramt Work- ers program, urging residents to contribute. materials and workers. Mrs. John Henninger, Druid Hills Road, will be hostess next Friday morning August 1 at 10:30 to women who are willing to help. She asks that they bring their own sandwiches. Dessert and beverage will be served. Things that are needed are: toys for pre-school children; materials for scrapbooks; clothing, that little girls can play dress-up in; model- ling clay, crafts materials suitable for very young children; first-aid and sewing kits. In addition the centers for migrant workers need quilts and blankets. Over 1,000 migrant workers are expected this season in the three- county area covered by Wyoming Valley Council of Churches. Many workers arrive with no idea of the chill of nights in August, and with- out sufficient bedding to combat it. Give Mrs. Henninger a call at 674-7306, and ask her what is needed, and how you can help. These migrants are the strangers within your gates, Car Lost In Fire Rev. and Mrs. Wardan Updyke, Sr., narrowly escaped injury and burns, when, returning home to Endicott, their automobile caught fire and was completely destroyed.

Coming to the United States in 1910 to care for an ailing nephew, Miss Paderatz after several years was left without a home and rela- tives when he too, died.
