down at Hamlin, Saturday morning
very suspicious looking flag was ilut-
tering gaily in the October breeze, far
out from the west side of the passen-
ger coach. One OF the bystanders on
the station platform said that it was
division of the Red Cross, on mis-
sion of help and mercy, but a more
observant young fellow quickly shat
tered this conjecture by calling atten-
X ion to the fact that the flag contained
a white cross instead of o red one, and
he surmised it headed q desperate
band OF marauders on a raid Of death
and desolation. Then a third onlook-
er stepped up and said that the flag
was surely The Union Jack inthe van
of British invasion. but when the
train pulled up 10 the station and
squad of Jolly fellows with guns in
their hands leaped out on the platform

or less than the OakHill Gun Club on

Just west of Hamlin Station. The
boys were going out to defend the ban
ner they captured last year. They did
defend it, too, in admirable form. In
spite of the desperate efforts of the
Hamlin, Elk Horn and Kimbaliton
Clubs the Oak Hill boys repeated a
glorious victory and bore the beauti-
full banner triumphantly back home
with them in the evening.
September went off in pout
With tears streaming. down her sweet
face.
October poked in his cold snout
With snort and horrid grimace,
When suddenly, 10. sweet smile
Went ripping all over his features
And he became, just for while,
One of Gods most charming creatures
