A family reunion was held at the resi-
dence of supervisor Levi Smith on Fri

present and an enjoyable time is reported,
Mrs. Cora Coudrey and family, of
Frenchville, are visiting the formers par
ents L. Il. Smith and wife.
Wm. Nelson, Clyde Collins, William
Ray Smith, Selburne Logue and Walter
Logue took in the excursion to Portage
Falls Sunday. All report fine time
Sunday school at the Huntley church
Sunday was we'll attended.
Henry and Thomas Hill were business
callers in town Saturday.
A. w. Smith has sold his truck patch
to G. W. Starr who will replant it with
turnips and winter radishes. He can be
seen almost any evening after working
hours attending to his garden and it is
safe to predict that he will succeed.
Wesley Barr and Charles Taylor, of
Tunnel Hill, are busy men these days
getting their fruits and vegetables ready
for the County Fair. We understand
that they dug three bushels out of eigh-
teen hills and then left the small ones for
the cattle. That looks like going some
on potatoes.
Our old friend Irwin Parks has come
to Tunnel Hill to do few days saving
for D. w. Eastman during the absence OF
the regular sawyer. He is as jolly and
fat as ever and we wish he could remain
longer with us, he has a regular position
with the same firm at CoudeNport.
B. j. Collins is building retaining
wall near his residence in order to save
the water cutting into the bank of the is
land at that point. This proceeding will
eventually increase the size of the island
and make it suitable tor cultivation. "By
the way" we understand that he had quite
an exciting time the other day trying to
capture big eel in the creek but it es-
capped after all. However on the same
day Operator Getchell secured large
one near::the:.bridge and it is now in the
spring. He has promised to present it
to w. H. Smith, T. n, provided he came
back from Portage Falls safely.
Owing to delay in the mailing our cor
respondence from Cameron and Huntley
arrived at the Press office too late to
appear in last weeks issue but as this is
the exception and not the rule we hope
to be excused.
Darius Ives has returned from West
Virginia where he took car load of
horses for Hon. g. W. Huntley. Darius
returned by the way of Cleveland, Ohio,
where he purchased large consignment
of onion seeds for Jordan and Smith.
Irwin Parks paid his old friends fare
well visit Saturday evening and after
some little persuading consented to sing
us the following song accompanied by j..
H, Smith on the violin, entitled, "The
Creates: Game of All.
There's many games which we can play;
Our base ball, it is great,
While foot ball, polo and lacrosse,
Are strictly up-to-date
And though we all enjoy these sports,
For tn our ardor tames;
We must forget them when we play,
The Greatest Game of AL
This game we play from childhood time,
Until we reach the grave;
With some the score runs very high
While some doomed to slave,
To even get the scanty bite,
Their feeble breaths to claim,
Bnt all are striving hard to play
The greatest Game of All.
Some play the game in ease and wealth,
With ne'er thought or care,
For Fortune" lavishes her smiles,
Upon them everywhere;
But others toll from day to day,
In sorrow and in pain,
An endless struggle it's for them.
This Greatest Game of All.
And year by year the game goes on,
Some by the wayside fall,
Some play the game unto the end,
Before the "umpire" calls,
And when on earth the game is closed,
Our standing will be named,
BY Him who knows our every play,
In the Greatest Game of All.
