Mr. Loucks apparently was feeling at usual when he retired Tuesday night, but had been dead for sev- eral hours when discovered by Mrs. Loucks this morning, death having occurred in his sleep. Mr. Lpucks was born at Fonda May 14, 1874. a son of Alexander land Elmlra Johnson Loucks, and lived in that village until a young man. He started to learn the bak- er's trade at an early age, and be- came a full fledged baker when he was 16 years old. After conducting his own bake shop in the county seat for a few years, Mr. Loucks came to Amsterdam, where he has served the public for a period of 50 years, the last 25 of which were spent in the present location at 129. Market Street. Mr. Loucks' accomplishments were not confined to his baking, for he possessed an excellent bass- baritone voice, and until recent years had been actively identified with local musical circles. He sang with the Liberty Bond Vocal Club until It disbanded, and was a mem- ber of the Arion Singing Society, taking part as soloist in several musical comedy productions staged by amateur talent under the direc- tion of Edgar Belmont Smith. He was a member of Amsterdam Lodge, 101. B. P. O. E. His jovial disposition and genial, manner made Mr. Loucks popular with all who knew him, and he had a wide circle of friends. His \wife, the former Lena Haight, Fonda, -survives, together with one daughter, Mrs. Lewis W. Snyder, and one son, Donald D. Loucks, both of Amsterdam; one sister. Mrs. William T. Farrell, New Haven, Conn.; one brother, William G. Loucks, Thomas ton, Me.; a niece, Miss Florence Lubard, Mc- Graw, N. Y.; nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren.

Then... read every word of this I For Sci- ence has found there is a "vitaliz- ing" substance always necessary for a pretty young skin. Naturally, as this substance decreases, skins'start to dry, and look "older." But now the Endocrcme laboratories have found a counterpart of Nature's secret...called AcnvoL*...thae replaces this substance so needed by skin. ACTIVOL? brought to you only by Endocrcme, often works wonders! Many skins which were "dry" due to lack of this natural "Life-Substance" take on a new look of "bloom," appear "younger" again!

Through his efforts, a boy and girl drum corps was formed, and later reor­ganized as an all-girl corps of 54 members, which was sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary of Johnstown and won laurels as the largest and one of the finest all-girl organizations in New York State.
