About three weeks ago the writer saw

About three weeks ago the writer saw
some SOW thistles growing from a last
fall straw stack. We set the stack on
fire and though it was somewhat damp
it made a hot fire. This week we visit
ed the same place and found that the
stack had been pretty well consumed,
which meant that 1T must have burned
for at least twenty four hours, but there,
smiling in the sun, veritable Phoenix,
was Il new growth of SOW thistle about
four inches high. What are you to do
with weed that you can't burn out.

Mr.. Cooper carried off seven first prizes
besides goodly number of seconds, and
was easily the largest exhibitor repres-
ented. Ever since coming to the state
over % years ago, the genial minister has
been chicken fancier, and a fair with

0. ]. Gamer Arrested at Parkers-
burg.

The Parkersburg papers of FRI

bf o. j. Gamer, of Latonla, upon
the charge of larceny. growing out
of protested check. According TO
the reports, last Summer someone
ordered from T. j. Garntl bunch
Of liquor are mailed n check for
$40. signed 10y o j. Gamer s. Co.,
which check was protested by the
Cashier of the Calhoun County
Bank. Mr.. Gamer claims that tho
check was forgery and that he or
dered it protested. M. Clarity
claims that Gamer gave The check
with the intention to defraud CT
steal that amount of goods. The
trial is set for Feb. 10. 1t is sincere
ly hoped by friends of Mr. Gamer
here that he Will have no trouble in
clearing himself Of the charge.
There is one correction in the Park
ersburg reports, however, that we
wish to correct, and that is the To-
cation of Mr. Gamers residence.
He is not resident of Grantsville
nor of Calhoun County, but of L a.
tonia,. Gilmer county. The Parkers
burg papers, it seems to us, are al
ways too ready to cast some reaec
ton upon the good name of our
town and county. If anyone from
the Little Kanawha Valley gets in
to trouble in Parkersburg. the
chances are ten to one that the pa
pers there will state that the man
was from Calhoun, no matter what
county he might hail from. Conse-
quently, our county has gained
reputation that is far from enuable.

The following comment appears
in an exchange; A Harrison coun-
ty Justice sent man to jail for
violating the compulsory school law
by railing to send his daughter to
school. 1t is seldom this law is en-
forced and from hat fact alone
many boys and girls are permitted
to roam about in ignorance and
grow to manhood and womanhood
without being able to read OF write.
In most instances il will be found
that poverty is not the cause, but
instead greed for tie dollar by the
parents. There sh0uld be strict en-
forcement of the compulsory school
