Assignee's sale of w. H. Ulsh last
Thursday brought together a good
many people from distance. Fair

Since war it is amusing to hear of
the many complaints to which a
good many of our men are subject
.... 1T looks as if our West enders
are slow, as Weyler has been hung
in effigy already more than six
months ago. Last Saturday
Mrs. Gust Romig was buried at the
St. johns church, large concourse
of people were present to mourn her

and vicinity showed their patriotism,
on last Saturday by erecting fifty
foot pole, and swinging old glory
to the breeze. While the boys were
fastening the pole, there were some
shots fired in the direction of Spain

Weyler, the butcher. He was
brought to town and quickly
saturated with coal oil and hung to
a pole, the match applied and every
thing passed off to the satisfaction OF
the cr'wd that had gathered for the
occasion, thanks to the parties that
assisted toward defraying the 'ex-
pences Of old glory.

Records Should be Carefully Kept.

At the recent meeting of the Sny-
der Comfy Historical Society a re-
solution was adopted to appoint a
committee to draitrules for the guild
ance of pastors in keepingthe church
records properly. This committee,
we presume, will attend toits duty.
Rev. S. f. Ochsenford ofSelinsgrove
is the chairman of this committee.
The ministers of the gospel have an
opportunity to get great deal of
information. AS usual each minis
ter keeps sarecord ofbaptisms, births,
marriages and funerals at which he
ofiiciates, but as a rule, ministers
stay for acomparatively briefperiod
and the record goes with them.
When the minister dies, his records
fall into the hands of individuals
and information that is exceedingly
valuable never reaches the public.
When the German settlers poured
into the southeastern part of the
state early in 100, they required
their pastors to keep record of all
births, baptisms and marriages in
their various charges and file them
away as the property ofthe church.
The sexton Of the burial ground was
required to keep a book and in it
note down the date ofbirth and death
Of every one buried in his cemetery.
Where these records were thus kept,
it now becomes an easy matter to
traceup TIE pioneer families. Where
this has not been done, the task be-
comes a most difliult one. In 1915
when the second church at Salem,
this county, was completed, the
church council passed a resolution
that both the Lutheran and the Re-
formed pastors should write up the
history of the church to that period
and each was to note the births,
baptisms, marriages and deaths OF
all connected with the congregation
and a list made of all those who
would commune and put these in q
box specially prepared for that pur.
pose at the pulpit. This was done
for great many years, how long We
cannot say. AT present we are safe
in saying that very few do it and
hence the information of the people
who lived in Snyder county for the
past rs years, is very meagre. We
are glad to note, however, that for
the last 20 years Mr.. Kriegbapm,
the sexton of the Fremont cemetery,
has kept a careful record Of every
person buried there. This is the
