On last Monday ~forty.one years ago,
the editor u this Great Family Weekly
first saw the light Of day, back yonder
in Ohio, on the banks Of old Lake Erie,
in an humble cottage, on the farm. a
few miles EAST OF Cleveland, where he
lived until twelve years of age, when he
commenced the printing business in
that famous college town Of Oberlin, D.,
and has been IN that business continual.
ly since that period. We are proud to
say that We have had a birthday once
in every twelve months since that mem.
orable day that We were Ushered into
this great world. Some Of these aniver.
saries have been passed with little
thought while others have been pleas
antly remembered. in fact we do not feel
that we have missed anything by having
seen the light OF day in that old and
long to be remembered home, where VI
spent our childhood days on the farm.
"The old oaken bucket, little chickens
In the garden, the n horse shay. the
brindle COW, and in fact all Of those
charming joys OF childhood, swarm
upon our mind thick and fast as time
swiftly glides into the great unknown,
and there is not anything that brings
back those days 80 quickly as the flight
Of time from childhood's gentle estate
until age begins to creep upon you apsce.
Last Monday we again arrived ut anoth
or mile stone in our short life, marked
in plain figures Al" Our better half in
order to make the world seem brighter,
invited a goodly number Of the young
people Of Red Cloud to participate in the
forty.f first birthday anniversary. They
came. and the evening was most ~ioyously
spent in various ways, IA only young
people can, and while time passes swift.
iy ove our heads, the pleasant associa.
ton Of friends helps to tighten tho bur
dens and make one feel that it is pleas
ant to have their friends come in and
assist In celebrating a day that is always
an important event in ones life.

Come let us reason together. Some
things are necessary for comfort, health

to do without many Of the necessities
and all luxuries Of life but we intend
to have what is absolutely necessary
this year to sustain life and keep in
health to aid us in our battle Of the
year. Our wives and children must at
least have food to eat and shoes to wear.
The latter will not cost you much, but
will help to preserve their health and
comfort.
w have made arrangements with J.
B. Lewis & Co. Of Wear Resister fame to
supply us with a medium priced line Of
boots and shoes that will meet with
your approval. and come in reach Of
your pocket book.
1t is our wish to supply every family

and mailing soles and repairing at actual

with us and will wish you mad II you dc

The dinner and supper given by the
ladies Of Red Cloud for the firemen OF
this city last Saturday furnishes ample
illustration Of what our ladies in co-ope.

success from every point Of view.
One night the ladies met to consider
the advisibility Of giving the fire boys q

just what was going to happen. Accor.

dened with substantial food, and long
before the noon hour arrived the tables

yet delightful to be waited upon by the
society damsels Of every faction, and to
see the people SO unusually harmonious,
but it all went to swell the Rremen's ex-
chequer, and all were happy as q clam
in high tide. As q result Of their efforts
1856 people took dinner, and after the
supper was over tho drawer showed the
munifcient sum Of Sl0l.8O.
There was an immense throng at the
supper, mostly town people and most Of
them stayed to the entertainment, which
lasted over an hour. Every feature on
the program was good. The quartz,
singing was very interesting. and the
r~ecitations and solos were all right. The
singing by little Boyd Smith and little
Mile Boyd was especially entertaining
and elected great applause. A comic
dialogue closed the entertainment. II

they had been sent to confer with Kop.

to build a sugar beet factory at this
place. The result Of the conference ia
not enthusiastically favorable to the
erection Of a factory here soon, inasmuch
as that company would not submit to
the requirements of the Red Cloud gen.
tlemsn. They were willing to cut the
bonds to $4,000 but required the people
here to furnish at least 10000 tons OF
beets. This amount is excessive and
the task Of raising that many beets the
first two years is too enormous to con-
template. The Mayor and council have
instructed Chairman Miner to forward
another proposition, and it's fair to say
the matter 10 by no can discouraged
yet. Favorable legislation would great
ly enhance IL not insure our prospects
for q sugar factory.

Death of Rev. Nathan Calender.

He died in Scranton, April 2lst,
1895. His ancestry came to Amer
lea about 100 and noted for their
patriotism during the Revolutionary
war. His grandfather was member
of General Washington's staff. His
fathers family we're among the irst
settlers of Lackawanna Valley, in
Blakely township. When young
man he made profession of religion
and united with the Scott Valley
church of which he was pastor at the
time of his death.
Soon after making a profession OF
religion he became very active in
christian work, and being a man of
remarkable persuasive force his ins
Auence for good became Il great
power for good through the church
and the membership at once recog>
nized his fitness to enter the work
of the Gospel Minestry, and after
but short preparation he was ordain.
ed by the Minestry connected with
the Abingdon Association. His first
pastorate was at New Milford Sus>
quelanna county, commencing in
lS47, where his labors were abund-
antly blessed. He received the ap-
pointment as general missionary for
Sullivan county from the Baptist
State Convention in 1858, and came
upon the field the year following;
residing at Laporte. AT that time
there were two small Baptist chur-
ches within the bounds ofthe coun-
ty, known as the Loyalsock and
Cherry churches. The Loyalsock
church which was constructed at
the forks OF the Loyalsock in 1922,
havirg rs its constituent members,
the Bird and Rogers families and
small scattering membership ex-
tending along the Loyalsock from
Forksville to BARRIERS Mills with an
important station at Rogers woolen

are unmerciful in their work. We

that the time is ripe for those OF

to call and settle the same. To thi-
