For OLD FoLKs.-This paper has
printed many items of wonderful
feats of old people, but this from the
Warren, Ohio, paper beats them all.
In an account of the closing exer-
cises at a country school, this fact is
stated: Saturday evening, Feb. 27,
in the Logan district there was a
fine exhibition, which was a credit
to both teacher and pupils. An
unusual feature of the program rem
dered was recitation by "Aunt'
Patty st. John, who will be SO next
June. Eighty years ago she at
tended school in log school house
in the south pa,ssSQf town, taught
by Esther Bidwell. .S'Attending the
same school was "Joe" Higle, who
on rhetorical days, becoming quite
interested in the subject at hand,
would crate in stentorian accents a
certain piece, By hearing this sew
eral times, Mrs. st. John remem-
bered it, and on the above evening,
though somewhat feeble, rode three
quarters of mile and recited the
same for the entertainment of the
school. Among Mrs. st. Johns
schoolmates attending the same
term, is Mrs. Buel Barnes, of town,
who undoubtedly remembers the
circumstance"
