The Program
The exercises consisted of songs and
recitations and were presented under
the shade of the large oak tree before
the school house, under the direction
of Miss Richmond, and were very cred

Some Speeches Made.
Mr.. Patton presented the flag to the
district and made his usual historical
remarks on the national colors. He
told of the making of the first flag
: by Betsy Ross, of which George Wash
iugton made the design, and how pris
oners in Libby prison made flag out
of their shirts. ''Put up the flag on
fine days." said he, "when the school
meets in the morning. and take il
down at night when school closes, and
/ then the children at home will see II
flying and will know that school is In
session and will want to come to school
and so the flag increases the attend
anees at the public school"
Miss Richmond accepted the flag on
behalf of the district in a neat, Off
hand speech, and she certainly has
great natural talent in that line. The
gift of public speech is a rare one and
should be cultivated by this young
lady.
/ II is the intention of Patton Bros
to erect a flag over every public school
County Superintendent MoOres de-
, livered an eloquent address In honor
of the flag. Education and patriot
ism should be linked together by the
flag. Better education In the founda'
tion principle of good government
would prevent bad legislation and the
pernicious work of demagogues would
never over throw our country. He
closed with a beautiful tribute to the
flag and our country.

Hill has quite history. Ex-Governor
T. T. Geer gave 800 to help build it,
and men prominent in county affairs
have attended school here. When first
built the oak tree in front of the door
was not so large. The old seats built
in sections so that the turbulent, tow.
headed boys could not throw them out
of the window, are still on the grounds
and served to seat part of the large as

Changes Going On.

In seventeen years there have been
many changes taken place. Attend
anee at the school has decreased, but
there are more houses and better roads.
Large farms are slowly being cut into
smaller holdings. Rail fences are be
ing displaced by wire, woven-wire fence
almost no new barbed wire being
used-except for a top wire. There
has been constant road improvement
but roads are still too much laid on
land lines, when they should follow
grades.
Seventeen years ago there we're only
two houses where Fruitland now stands.
The road running north from the top
of the Gcer Hill has seven houses,
where there was but one then. The

Harry Walker

On Saturday evening 18th inst Harry

after an illness covering a period of
several months Surrounded by his
family and intimate friends he quitely
and fearlesly entered in the great be-
yon assuring those who stood beside
him that all was we'll
Harry Walker, was the son of the
A R and Mrs Catharine Walker and
was born and reared at Verona From
early childhood he formed the friend
ship Of every one with whom he was as
ISOLATED by his open and manly way
of conducting himself as he grew to
manhood he held the confidence and
esteem of the entire community. In
his association with his fellow man he
was at all times considerate and in his
every day life he took as his guide the
goldenlrule. In his business relations
he was honest, punctual and courteous.
Severafyears ago he connected himself
with the Methodist church at Verona
and was a regular communicate OF that
church. Five years ago he was happi-
w married to Miss Mary Battle and to
this union one little son, Cleon. was
born: AS husband and father he was
kind, affectionate and considerable and
it was his daily prayer that he might
be spared to rear and educate his son,
and be a protector and solace to the
wife Of his bosom: As a son and broth
er he was devoted to each member of
the family and in turn received their
tenderest love. In his last illness all
that loving hands could do was done to
relieve and restore him, but the dread
malady resisted all treatment and his
frail body finally succumbed.
The funeral services were held from
the Methodist church Sunday afternoon
where a large crowd assembled to pay
the last tribute Of respect to their de-
parted friend. Rev. Geddy, the pastor,
spoke in appropriate terms of the life
and character Of the deceased. To the
bereaved mes the deepest sympathy of
everyone is extended in their great sor-
row in which we Join.

that one finds so winsome a woman
gifted with SO fine a talent IS has Mrs.
Senter, who is now teacher Of voice at
the I. /. & C. at Columbus, and for
whom we predict a brilliant future.
Mrs. Senter will probably go abroad to
study this summer with the masters of
Europe.
Mrs. Johnson's paper on st. Patrick
displayed careful and discriminating
preparation, and was most ably read.
Mrs. johnson gives to her literally arti-
cles the stamp of. a studious and cultur-
ed mind, and on this occasion her read
ing was an intellectual treat.
1.-THE Wearing of the Green" played
by Miss Louise Clark, elected warm
applause and was rendered with a dash
and verve that displayed in no small de-
gree her technical skill. Miss Lilly
Goodlett sang ''Three Leaves OF Sham
rock" the pathetic little Irish ballad,
with great tenderness and sweetness
and proved herself capable of much
delicacy of expression and musical in
sight. There was much mirth-over the
Irish Bulls recounted by the guests,
among which those told by Mesdames
Robins, Brown, Clayton and Mitchell
were especially worth mention.
"I'll Take You Home Again Kath-
leen," as sung by Miss Leola Strain in
her inimitable manner, was both beau
tiful and pathetic Miss Strain has a
high, clear soprano, peculiarly sympa-
thetic, with notes that sometimes have
tears in them and tones that vibrate in
the heart for days. She isa student Of
the Washington, D. C. Conservatory
and her singing has that rounded per-
lection of a finely trained voice, keenly
attuned to every emotion of the heart,
with ARE response and under most per-
feet control.
After the rendition of the program
the guests were invited to pass by and
kiss the Barney Stone, on their way to
the dining room. In this room were
again displayed the green and white
decorations which prevailed all through
the house Tea vas poured by Mes
DANES Berkeley and Robert Kinds, and
Shamrock sandwiches tied with green,
olives, and Barney stones of cake with
green icing were handed by Misses
Strain, Clark and Goodlett attired as
Irish peasant girls. The high Irish hat
with green band and full of green bon
bons, surmounted with the green flag
of ERIN go Bragh," completed this
typical repast. From fhe smilax trim
med electroliers were TWISTED ropes of
green tulle, confined at the four n
of the tea table, which was glistening
with it's silver tea service and cut glass
