Neighbors of W. D. Armstrong
and daughter, Mrs. Bowersox, ex-
hibited the proper spirit after the
recent death of Mr.. Armstrong. At
the time Of the latter's fatal acci.
dent there remained 20 acres of the
farm to- be seeded, five of which
had not been plowed. The resi-
dents Of the neighborhood at once
set to WORK, plowed the five acres
and finished seeding the entire 20
acres, without any charge whatever.
One Of the main guys in the ten
der1oin contingent Of the Sunday
excursion was a big fellow with a
big mouth and a big red nose. He
led the push up to the front of"Our
House." Then he hammered fnri-
Eously on the doors and began sing-
ing popular song, the opening
lines of which are: "Open that
door and let me in; I'm standing
here freezing-wet to the skin. !"
The proceeding was highly edifying
to his associates.
