Read More	Paul Gerhardt Baumgartner, son of the late Rev. S. S. Baumgartner and Mary (Vogt) Baumgartner, was born in Garden township, Harvey county, Kansas, Jan. 13, 1894. Here he lived until 14 years of age, when he moved with his parents to Salem, Oregon. After one year at Willamette University, Salem, he returned to Kansas to enter Bethel College, from which he graduated in 1923. On Aug. 12, 1918 he was united in marriage to Anna Marie Miller of Hanston, Kansas, also a student of the same college at that time. The Bethel College campus has been their home for the past 28 years where both he and his devoted wife have endeared themselves to the hearts of the people of this locality, the Bethel College church and City of Newton. A musician of ability, he conducted a men's chorus for a number of years, which served the churches in this area. He was the promoter of the annual Mennonite Song Festival, which has already became [sic] a tradition in this community. His service as a piano tuner and organ technician was constantly in demand. For 23 years he has been a valued member of the teaching staff of the Newton city schools in the Industrial Arts Department. He not only touches the lives of scores of youth in his daily classes at school, but also shared with them his any and varied hobbies. He was an archer of repute in the state. He is known for his interest and work in astronomy, having constructed a mirror lens telescope by which he and his friends, young and old enjoy the beauty of the ever-changing heavens. Recognizing his civic administrative ability the citizens of North Newton vested in him the responsibility of mayor. Due to his untiring efforts North Newton has become one of the beauty spots of central Kansas. On Sunday morning, Dec. 16, at the early age of 51 years and 11 months this active and effective life was terminated by a coronary attack. It is with difficulty that his co-workers assume the heavy and varied responsities [sic] he has had to lay down. He will be missed most in his home by his devoted and bereaved wife, Anna, also by his mother and a sister, Mrs. Frank Penner, both of Portland, Oregon. His influence and memory will carry on indefinitely in the hearts and lives of the host of admires [sic] and friends in this community of which he has been so vital a part. Funeral services were held in Bethel College Memorial Hall, Dec. 20, at 2:30 P.M. Clergymen officiating were his pastor, Rev. Lester Hostetler, and a life-long friend, D. E. G. Kaufman. Interment was made in Greenwood cemetery under the direction of Moody's Funeral Home. obit provided by Adalbert Goertz
