Funeral services were held at 2:00 o’clock Tuesday, March 3, from St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Green Grove with Rev. Jerome Wohfeil reading the final rites.

Phillip Clarence Laube was born September 30, 1894, in Germany. During World War I he served two years with the Navy and later became a charter member of the American Legion Post at Wheaton, Minn. In that community he worked for several years as a carpenter before coming to Owen where he was employed as a carpenter and maintenance man with the John S. Owen Lumber Company. With the passing of the lumber era here he continued his carpentry trade for some time and then took over the management of a Cities Service Station for several years previous to moving to his present day farm in the Town of Green Grove.

On April 18, 1936, he was united in marriage to the former Elsa Bauer of Medford who mourns his sudden passing as do two brothers, Karl of Colby, and Henry of Owen, and two sisters, Mrs. William (Theresa) Firkel, Milton, Ill., and Mrs. Adolphe (Marie) Meyer, Port Angeles, Washington.
