At present corn is being husked and
housed. Vely few CT the present genera
ton of young men and women ever saw
a real corn-husking party, as they used
to be held. To be sure, they have corn
husking parties now, but they are not
what they used to be. In the remem-
trance of our fathers and mothers, on the
cold, moonlight nights of October and
November, some twenty loads of corn
would be hauled and dumped on the barn
floor. At an early hour in the evening
this huge pile would tie attacked by a
score o. mole of the lads and lasses cfall
the country around, and by 10 O'Clock a
pile of yellow eels would gli:ttn and the
huge mass of husks, in great armfulls,
would be thrown over one anothers heads
by the boistrous youth. The labor of dis
robing the yellow ears was not of t1e
pleasantest kind, especially the breaking

sturdy young fellows had to render as
sistance to the girls. When red ear
was encountered, which was not rare
circumstance, the finder wss entitled to a
kiss from chosen sweetheart. When all
was ended and the company had been Civ
en- time to fix up little, the refreshments
were in order, and it is needless to say
that it did not consist of ice cream, cake,
strawberries, oysters, etc., but on the con-
trary they were generally nothing less
than gocd, substantial supper. Aftersup-
per the dancing came. An expert on the
fiddle could usually be found, and the
coed cid country dances were given with
vim. Then the evening wound up with
the common finale of seeing the girls
home. The good old times, it is said, were
very popular some thirty or forty years
ago.

chains, and the air for miles around vi
brated with the sound of high carnival
being held on our streets. AS the even
ing twilight blended into night, the streets
began to be- filed with people, some to
see and hear, and many to be seen and
heard. Throughout the day the skilled
hands of burlesqre artists had been busy
preparing mcttoes and t,ansparencies for
the occasion, others busted themselves
during the day in collecting and arrapg-
ing instrU merits of noise if not of music.
Shortly after 6 O'Clock a huge bonfire
was lighted in front Of the Court house;
this was the signal for the commencement
CT festivities. The procession, headed by
the Napoleon Band, was formed on Wash
ton street. Amcng the ludicrous attartt.
ions in the procession was a boat mounted
on wagon, on the boats canvass was
the following inscription "This craft
for Salt River. For passage apply to L..
G. Randall, for State rooms apply to Sam
Powell. No return tickets accepted"
and on the opposite eide of the canvass
the words slower decks exclusively for
bulldog tangie-fcot clubs" and the pain
fully significant Ito Repob blicsrs) Initials
"R. R. R." met the eye. Among the
transparencies, which were numerous,
one of the most noticeable was an imi-
tation of a tombstone, with the ollowiDg
inscription, "Here lies (he always lie ~
| Jas. g. Blaine, died Nov. 4, 1884. r. r. R."
On the opposite side of this family monu-
ment were the words: "The &. o. p, bora
1860, died in disgrace in 1884" There were
many other notices, but we have not space
to devote to their publication. Reside nc
es and business houses along the line of
mar;h were brilliantly illumi mated. The
pyrotechnic display along the whole line
lent sublime grandure to the scene. The
cold weather detracted more CT less fro IN
the pleasures of the occasion, but all in all
it was jolly night.
After the parade the Hon. w. D. Hill
delivered very appropriate speech in the
Cour. house..

A Birthday Dinner.

The neighbors and quite a number of
relatives of John Davis, who resides in
Harrison township, visited his home, on
Nov. 18th, this being his s9th birthday.
The f.iends and neig hbors came with well
filled baskets and in due time bountiful
repast was served to some forty, or more,
guests.
Mr.. Davis said that his father settled in
Napoleon township, this county, when he
was six years old, hence he has lived in
the county 33 years. The friends remain
ed at his home until late in the afternoon.
All enjoyed themselves, and Mr.. Davis
was happy and cheerful: and seemed to
take great pleasure in waiting upon the
company present. Presents were given
to Mr.. Davis by relatives and others.
