Reached the Limit.

Bussey Banner: When o. K. No.
5, of Bussey, began regular operations
last summer Supt. Powers offered
the men present of $40, to be paid
as soon as the output of the mine
reached total of 500 tons of coal
for one days hoist. On Tuesday of
this week the mark was reached for
the first time, $40 tons being brought
up out of the dark hole and that in
the face of the fact that over a half
hours time was lost, in which 80 tons
more could have been added to the
record.

How Are You Fixed

Are you able to buy farm in Iowa
or Illinois?
How do you ever expect to own a
home?
Are you leaving your children as
good or a better chance to gain a
home than you have had?
Are you not becoming tired of the
rigors of northern winter, followed
by the mud and slush of the spring
months?
Has not your past experience prov
en- to you that the crops in these old
er states are sometimes disagreeably
uncertain?
You think this is none of my BUSH
ness but think these are questions
that should interest you.
Don't you think you would like to
farm in country where the climate
is mild and equable, the soil rich and
easily titled, the water supply con-
slant and sufficient and where what
ever is planted brings forth an hum
dred fold?
Don't you think you would like to
live in a healthy, pleasant climate
where the resources of nature, sup
plemented by mans skill and genius
makes crop failure AN IMPOSSIBLE
ITY?
This is part of MY business and
SHOULD BE part of YOURS, as
the lands can be sold on terms that
leave no reasons why you should live

On Thanksgiving morning at . o'clock
at the home of the brides parents, Mr..

marriage of their daughter, Miss Msude,
to Mr.. John NJ. Clark of Forestville.
The bride looked very beautiful in q
gown of white swiss over pink with lace
trimming, carrying American Beauty
roses.
The groom looked his best wearing
the conventional black. They were I'M
attended. The wedding was a very
quiet one, only the immediate family of
the bride being present. The home
WAS beautifully decorated with csrna-
tions and smilax. The bride needs nc
words of commentator as she has lived
in and around Lamont nearly all bel
life.

that united the destinies of the younI

Lebbens Chapman Dudley.

A/SpoCho SdopbAoA DuulCy Wab Uokh
In Bridgeport, Conn, Feb. IA, 1927, and
ut the age Of two years he moved with
his parents to Columbia Co., N Y,
where they resided until the year 1850
when they moved to Oswego Co, where
he first became acquainted with Miss
Sarah A. EdmuDds, to whom, on July
II, 1859 he was Joined In marriage.
In May, 1856, they came to Delaware
Co, and settled on the old homestead
farm at Spring Branch, where they
dwelt In peace and prosperity, sur
rounded by kind friends and neighbors
In those pioneer days, and where their
interesting family of eleven children
were all born and reared, excepting one,
and where they shared many of life's
joys and blessings together, and aleo
tasted together their bitter In the cup of
life, and through their devotion to each
other had the courage to meet their sor
rows and disappointments patiently.
ur. Dudley WAS very quiet man but
never spared any pains to give pleasure
to those whom he loved, 80 in the dear
familiar old farm homo on sunny
Spring Branch they lived and loved and
thrived, for prosperity crowned their
efforts though it was by hardships and
incessant labor that he won.
About IA years ago, on account of
declining health. owing to those pioneer
days, he rented the old home to his eld-
est son, jay, and came with his family
to this city, where he has since lived in
peace and plenty, notwithstanding the
weary hours Of pain from rheumatism
which he has endured at various sea
soDs.
Mr.. Dudley was one of eight children,
having been next to the oldest of the
family and was the first to break the
family circle of children. William Dud-
ley of this place and Calvin of Calhoun
county, brothers Of the deceased, were
present at the obsequies, which were
held at the home Sunday afternoon
at two O'Clock, conducted by Rev
ii. w. futile of the Congregational
church.
On July II of the summer Just passed
occurred the fiftieth anniversary of their
marriage.
He leaves wife, the dear companion
of his choice, who is nearly hesrtbroken
at the separation butbesrs up bravely at
her loss. OF the II children born to them
seven are now living. viz. :>Mrs. Mary
Milligsn, Mrs. Hubert Pierce, Mrs. Har-
old Hadley, jay Dudley (who now owns
the old hone), Frank, Fred and VIII all
of this vicinity, and all were gathered
around him at the closing scene ready
and willing to administer to his every
want, or to 60 down close to the valley
Of the shadow with him. He often ex-
pressed his willingness to go from hence
and be at rest, and manifested his graf
ltude for being cared for by his own
family circle which was always his wish
and we hope and pray that their meet
ing place shall be:

BEHIND THE FOOTL1GHTS
HARVARD AS A STEPPING STONE TO THE
STAGE-MUSICAL COMEDY SUCCESS
ON BRoADWAY-THE FUSIL-
IADE OF MISS FISCHER.

There is a tradition that actors like poets, are
born and not made. (To be sure, Mr. Burgess
variation that Poets born, not maids
will not apply to the STACEY But tradition does
not compel poets to begin blotting white paper
with black ink at the tender age Of ten 1t
does on the other hand, stoutly affirm that 10
be a good actor one must begin young 1t ad-
,nits no early training for the stage but the
stage itself. Rightly wrongly, the opinion
has long been held that an actors schooling
should he In the theatre. Many actors nave
drifted on the stage without this youthful
training TO be sure but few have ever de-
liberately set about fitting for stage career by
entering college instead of a dramatic COM
pany.
It is on account of this tradition that the case
of Stanton Elliot now entering his second sea-
son as an actor at the head of THE Christian
COMPANY which Liebler & Co.. are sending out.
is worthy of attention. In the fall of 1890
Elliot entered Harvard College with his mind
made I'D to become a professional actor. He
chose to fit for his life work at Harvard be-
cause he could not be persuaded that the stage
WAS anv less commendable occupation than
business or medicine or law, and SO he could
not see why he should not have as broad and
liberal training in preparation for his work
as his friends who chose other pursuits his
