The Twenty-Third Psalm

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures.
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul;
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil for thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies.
Thou anointest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days of my life
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
for ever.

Kyle Price Scholl

B: November 8, 1881

D: January 1972, Wellsville, Montgomery Co., MO

The 1900 Federal Census shows Kyle as single (age 19) and living with his parents in Salt River, Audrain Co., Missouri.

The 1910 Federal Census shows Kyle as single (age 29) and living alone in Wilson, Audrain Co., Missouri.

Kyle’s 1918 World War I Draft Registration Card lists his brother Frank as his nearest relative. Kyle is listed as medium height and medium build with light blue eyes and dark brown hair.

The 1920 Federal Census shows Kyle as single (age 39) and living with his brother, Frank, in Egg Creek, McHenry Co., ND.

The 1930 Federal Census appears to show our Kyle Scholl as married (age 47) and living in Wilson, Audrain Co., Missouri, with spouse, Effie, and four step-children, Susie, Russel, Ruby, and Irine. Is this the same Kyle Price? The age is off by 2 years and the actual census clearly shows 47 rather than a 49. However, based on where Kyle is living it seems reasonable to think this is the same Kyle Scholl.

The 1910 Federal Census shows Effie married to Clarence R. Cox and living in Salt River, Audrain Co., Missouri.

The 1920 Federal Census shows Effie married to Clarence R. Cox and living in Jackson, Callaway Co., MO

There is then a Darlene Francis Scholl who is supposedly a daughter of Kyle’s, Darlene was born in December of 1932 which would fit in with Kyle and Efife being newly married somewhere before 1930. Darlene married a Morris and died in Cass Co., Missouri in 2004.

Helping homeless veterans Carroll student Seth Larimore, right, had a grocery drive to help homeless veterans. The collection was for a project called Operation Heartland. He and his friend, Kevin Knaus, pictured left, delivered the items to Indianapolis. Photo provided

A Carroll Jr.-Sr. High School student conducted a food drive to help with a winning project in the WRTV 6/"Oprah's Big Give Indiana" contest.

The winning project (one of two in Indiana) was Operation Heartland, submitted by Indianapolis residents and Air Force veterans, Scott and Katie Taylor. The Taylors submitted the proposal to help the organization, HVAF (Helping Homeless Veterans and Families) of Indiana Inc.

HVAF, the only organization of its kind in the state, has helped thousands of veterans break the cycle of homelessness. The Taylors learned that HVAF had acquired a 40-unit apartment building for homeless veterans of Indiana, but needed additional resources to furnish and stock the apartments.

Besides nominating the project in hopes of winning the monetary prize, the Taylors contacted their friend, Seth, of Flora, to see if he could help by organizing a food drive in his community.

Seth, who will be a senior at Carroll, collected non-perishable items at his school and at his church, Flora First Christian. Over a two-week period, 22 sacks of groceries and paper products and 10 flats of canned goods and dry cereals were donated.

Eventually, Operation Heartland won $5,000 in the contest.

Seth had become acquainted with the Taylors in connection with his plans to pursue a career in the Air Force.

"The food that I collected went to supply the kitchens of an apartment building that is used to help homeless veterans make the transition back into living on their own," Seth said. "My friend, Kevin Knaus, and I delivered the food to the Taylors in Indianapolis and from there, HVAF sent a truck to pick up the food and take it directly to the apartment building. This was a very worthy cause to help those who have served our country unselfishly. Thanks to all of the students and members of the Flora community who donated to the effort."

Seth is the son of Randy and Teri Larimore, and Kevin is the son of Merl and Janice Knaus of Flora.

HVAF helps veterans of any age when they are displaced for various reasons. For more information, visit www.HVAF.org.

Obituary

The cold icy hand of death has again visited this vicinity and the pleasant home of our neighbor, Shelton Armstrong, and borne him to the tomb to await the final resurrection. The deceased took the measles, from which he contracted cold and developed into that dreaded disease, pneumonia, from which he never rallied.

In the sudden demise of Mr. Armstrong the community loses a good citizen who will be greatly missed. The deceased was the oldest of seven children, 2 sons and 5 daughters; born to John and Virginia Armstrong. This family circle has formerly been broken by the death of two daughters, Laura and Mary; the latter's death preceded the subject of this sketch to the grave a few days.

Mr. Shelton was married to Miss Maggie Scholl on August 3, 1881. He was born September 30, 1856 and died February 10, 1895. Of this union there were three children born:Milton, aged 13 years; Johnie, 10 years; and little Willie, aged 19 months.

He was a kind father, a loving husband and a most excellent neighbor. He united with the Christian Church in the year 1888 under the able preaching of Elder T.J. Marlon. He died as he lived, trusting in the Lord. Before he died he was heard to utter the beautiful words, "The Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord."

The remains were interred at Liberty church by the Masonic order, and many dropped a silent tear over the demise of a good man. Peace be to his dust. A friend.
