On Jupe 4, 1908, at St. Joseph, Mich., Mr. W%£ner was united in marriage to Alice Shotliff, also of Spring Grove. The newly married couple chose to remain among the les of northern Illinois and they their life's work of public service a* endeavor with enthusiasm. Mr. Wagner served the community for almost fifty years. His interests were many and diversified: He completed two terms as mayor of Spring Grove; in recent years he acted as township clerk and township school treasurer; he represented Burton township as Republican precinct committeeman for more than twenty years; he was an interested and active member of the Burton- Richmond Fire Protection District in the capacity of treasurer and trustee; he was associated with many banking organizations in this area, and at his death, was a director of the Arlington Heights National Bank; he owned and operated a bitrber shop in Spring Grove for many years. The deceased was an .inspiring and imposing figure in the community life of Burton township. He was well qualified to administrate and arbitrate the affairs of his townsmen. The humble mannerisms exhibited in his routine contacts tended to conceal his humanistic idealism and philosophy. He was extremely sensitive to the flexible demands of the community which he chose to serve. His kindliness Mid generosity were surpassed only by his discreetness and his trustworthiness. His honesty and integrity were never doubted. His devotion to family and community were immeasurable. His love for the good things in life knew no limitations. His loss is shared equally by the youth of the community who have, down through the years, recognised in him all the characteristics of an ideal personality. Ho was possessed with the desire to bo constantly afcreast of the psriad fa whkh he lived; he was successful in Ms goal to understand and to Judge events of local, national and world significance.
