SCHOOL BOY INSTANTLY KILLED BY CAR

Thomas, Okla. — Funeral services were held here on Nov. 11 for Paul Yoder, eight year old son of Henry Yoders, who was instantly killed when struck by a car while walking home from school with his brothers.

It was reported that the group of boys, including Ivan and Roman Yoder and Menno Mast, saw a car coming at a high rate of speed and stepped to the side of the road. However, for some reason Paul started for the opposite side and walked in front of the oncoming car.
