Just now it shows for. just a little

in view of the fact that usually

the family Golfers were lost in the

disgraced this city Thanksgiving
and which hadn't shame enough
to hide behind drawn blinds. Men
fingered at the games, fascinated
by the fever of gambling, who
would have been home sober had
it not been for this temptation.
Truly Sistersville presented a
sorry aspect on the day set apart
as a religious festival. Drunken
ness and carousing on Wells

the rule rather than the excep-
ton, and all evil traceable direct
