Article Seven of this Will is hereby authorized and empowered to

thereof in such minor. During the minority of any such
beneficiary, 'the Trustee .may accumulate all or any part of the
net income from such beneficiary's share or pay so much thereof,
together with such amounts of the principal of such beneficiary's
share, as the Trustee in his sole discretion shall deem necessary
or advisable -for such beneficiary's health, support, maintenance
and complete education. In' the event that any such beneficiary
should die during -his minority, the Trustee is authorized, in his
sole discretion, to pay part or all of such beneficiary's funeral
expenses, and the remaining principal of such beneficiary's share
