paper that Mr. Cooke read before the
FIrelauds Historical Society Of Ohio re-
Gently ne told how his father once cap
tured two dozen wild turkeys without
firing gun This whole country
then, be said, was full Of game and
fish Of All kinds, . perfect paradise for
hunters ana fishermen. My father never
was a hunter. but on one occasion he
beat us all in pTowess. He had a l00-
acre field of corn out on the prairie.
and had built a spacious corn house in
the center. One day. riding over this
field after harvest. he noticed a win
dow was open and, approaching and
looking ia. he discovered q large Iock OF
wild turkeys within feasting on his corn.
He closed the window and ca9tured the
whole flock. thus providing feast for
the good old Thanksgiving Day then

IAN Easter Carol" "

"The bulbs that were hidden in the darkness
Through the winter time and the snow.
Have felt the thrill OF the sunlight,
Their hour to bloom they know:
Purple and gold and scarlet
And white as the robes OF king,
To the glory OF love at Easter.
Their beautiful wealth they bring.
The grass that was brown and withered
And cold on the sodden plain.
Has been kissed by the tender sunshine,
Caressed by the crystal rain:
And It's bright green lances culver.
Lo! twice ten million strong.
And the bird with her nest among them,
Flies up with sudden song"

On last Monday morning McCaslins
twentieth century store celebrated
it's inaugural opening in Grenada.
Having been in business here only
since last August, the showing made
by this firm has been wonderful. The
place was throngcd all day with crowds
of delightful visitors, and from
2 O'Clock until 6, souvenirs were pre-
sented to all the ladies. The decora-
tions were elaborate and artistic, the
scheme being development of the
Easter colors, which together with
the floral attractions, only serves to
re-establish the reputation of this
firm for handling nothing but the
best.
