exercises. The band, led by Prof Del

| The Stark County Pomona Grange
meeting Saturday, at Charles Hamil-
toms and l. B. Bryans, Of New Balti-
more, was a big success. More than
$50 people from Louisville, New Ber-
lin, Lexington, Atwater and Fairmount
! Grange drove through the clouds of
dust to be present. Under a big tent
a great feast was provided by Marl-
boro Grange for the crowds. The f1ve-
piece Rockhill and Flickinger or
chestra played during the dinner hour
at the elegant Hamilton home. The
literary program was given across the
road at Mr.. Bryan's front yard. w.
L. Marsh gave the address of welcome.
Miss Ruth Shrop followed with an
excellent reading. Miss Gladys Reid
niger gave a violin solo, as did Prof.
Delbert Roath, vocal solo with re-
call. Miss Verna Edson of Cleveland,
delighted everyone with a humorous
selection and recall that made sore
sides for her hearers. Gladys Reidin-
ger recited an original poem composed
by her mother, Mrs. George Reidinger.
The orchestra enlivened the program
at frequent intervals. Charles Pom
thus told of the silo and its use, and
discussion followed on silo construc-
ton, wood and hollow tile, which was
very instructive. Everybody was
asked to support the Stark County
Fair. A general history of this fair as
sociation to date was given and dis
cussed, and one county commissioners
actions condemned. 1t Is thought an
effort is being made to get the grounds
for other purposes. Strong resolu-
tions were adopted and others turned
down as too radical. One censuring
brother, Derthick, in his stand on the
taxation amendment, proposed an ap-
peal to all voters to vote No on the
same was adopted, as was one favor
ing the initiative and referendum
couched in strong language. These
resolutions are to be sent to the two
Alliance papers, the two Canton
papers and the Massillon paper for
publication by the secretary Of the
Pomona Grange. A vote of thanks was
extended the Marlboro Grange for
their splendid entertainment.
