The ground is very dry. No rain for
over two weeks.
Ripe peaches are getting plentier.
am Informed that in some parts of
the county the peaches are drying up
on the trees and becoming worthless. |
have not noticed any peaches drying up
in this valley yet, but it is getting very
dry here. Nectarines have ripened and
are harvested.
On Monday Misses Meta and Carrie
Warren took some peaches to Attica.
Melons are very plentiful this year
and of good size and quality.
Brother Watts preached at the U. Is.
church on Sunday evening. Quite a
number of people of theEnon neIghbor-
MOOD were In attendance. Brother
Watts discourse was interesting.
at the Christian church Elder, Hop
wood preached good discourse last
Sunday evening from Joshua last chap
ter, 14th and 18th verses. His reason
ing was clear and convincing. The
singing was splendid. The bass WAS
sung by j. o. Hahn and Melvin New
land; Miss Myrtle Huffaker played on
the organ and led the singing, ably as
sisted by the Misses Emma and Carrie
Warren and others. | noticed three
old soldiers, William Garrison, James

pleasant.
On Sunday afternoon large number
OF young people met at the residence of
AS, Huff, and practiced singing to pre-
pare for the picnic.
The Baptists have not decided as to
how soon they will hold a protracted
meeting, but it will probably be soon
because the evenings are very pleasant
and the nights are rapidly getting long
