SHARON BOYS fvfIOUS
Most Any of Them Would Trade
Places With Willie Whitla.

Sharon, Pa, March 24.-About 5000
citizens of Sharon last night paraded
the streets, headed by brass band
and two military companies, to the
Whitla home, where a demonstration
was made in honor of the kidnapped
boys return home.
Willie Whitla does not yet seem to
comprehend what he and his parents
have been through. He was out play
ing with his little friends. He rode a
bicycle, played marbles and assisted
in flying a kite. He is the object of
the childish envy of every boy in
Sharon, any one of whom would be
glad to have had his experiences.

The following account of the an
pual picnic of the Kentuckians at
Clearwater, Fla, taken from the
West Hillsborough Press will be Of
interest in Winchester:
''The third annual picnic of the
Lentucky Association took place on
he Island across the Bay on We'd
nesday, and was in every feature a
delightful success.
The weather IN the early part of
the day was not as promising for a
pleasant outing as many desired; but
the weather man, after causing con-
siderable anxiety on the part of those
who looked forward to the occasion
as one to be greatly enjoyed, assum-
ed a more pacific attitude, and dealt
out to the sons and daughters of the
Blue Grass State a much better sam
pie of picnic weather than they would
probably have had in the land of
their birth.
The wives, daughters and sweet
hearts of the sturdy sons of dear old
Kentuck must have used their best
culinary skill in preparing the great
variety of tempting dishes that grac-
ed the heavily laded tables which had
been specially constructed for the oc
casion, for nothing more palatable,
or more satisfying to the appetite
has, seldom been set before a waiting
company than was presented by the
ladies of the Association.
Several of the gallant sons assist
ed as coffee makers, fish-fryers, and
as walters in serving those who sat
at the tables.
The number and amount of the
tips they received from those whom
they served was not reported, and
will not likely be spread upon the
records of the Association.
When all were seated around the
beautifully laden tables, Rev. DR.. w.
III. Felix offered an invocation of
thanks, at the conclusion of which a
general attack was made by the
guests on the edibles before them
not hurriedly, not boisterously, but in
that pleasant, happy mood that rem
ders such occasions so enjoyable.
AS the feast progressed sociability
increased, and before it was con-
cluded there was no sign of restraint,
but each one was ON easy visiting
terms with his or her immediate sur
roundings, and conversation, story
and repartee became infectious and
brought all within the scope of good
feeling that was socially manifest
ed.
AT the conclusion of the dinner,
DIR. Felix mounted bench, and call
ed those present to order, with few
general remarks, concluding by read
ing the following poem, arranged for
the occasion:

THIRD ANNUAL GATHERING OF
KENTUCK|ANS AT CLEARWATER
Largest Crowd Yet Assembled At Picnic In Florida Many Local
People Present Flow Of Wit And Wisdom

/ haven't been there, stranger, since
two long years ago,
But my heart is full Of Old Ken
lucky.
In the Blue Grass? Played there
many summer afternoon.
Sat and dreamed there, too, on
many night in June.
Looking DER the meadows / could see
the rising moon
Shining white down on dear Old
Kentucky.
Two long years of wandering among
the haunts of men;
Two long years. Pve seen lot of
this old world since then;
But tonight I'd surely like to wander
back again,
Back into the Blue Grass of Ken
lucky.
Sweetest times are the old times like
those we used to know;
Sweetest scenes and sweetest
dreams are those of long ago,
Down there in the Blue Grass where
the meadow daisies grow.
Back at home in fair, dear Old
Kentucky.
Still her spell is on me and her mu-
sizes in my ear;
Still her memory shines to me, al
though it be through tears;
Still my heart goes back to her
across the lapse Of years,
Back into the scenes of Old Ken
lucky.
There's no better State than her upon
Gods rolling earth;
There's no better people got this
side of birth,
OF more real bottom and more hon
esty and worth,
Than the folks who're born in Old
Kentucky.
Boosting am /? Well that's a Blue
Grass failing, but
The home of Clay and Breckenridge
has got a right to strut.
Read the names of soldiers and of
statesmen that we're cut
On the shaft Of fame by Old Ken
lucky.
Mighty glad to see you, stranger; it
does a fellow good;
Fills him with sentiment of kin
and brotherhood;
Makes him feel as if he'd met fell
low of the blood,
When he strikes man from Old
Kentucky.
Sweetest times are the old times; the
days of long ago;
Sweetest scenes, sweetest dreams
are those we used to know,
Down there in the Blue Grass where
the meadow daisies blow,
Ten thousand miles away in Old
Kentucky.

TRAINED FARM BOYS
 IN DEMAND
Increa sing Needs Are Far Greater Than the Supply of Young
 Men With Experience.

The demand for young men who have been reared upon a farm and trained in the science of agriculture is greater at the present time than ever before. The increasing needs for tachers and investigators are far greater than the supply of young men with the proper experience and train ing.
 The type of young man in greatest demand at the present time is the graduate of an agricultural college who has been raised on the farm and has had practical farm experience with high school education before enter ing the agricultural college. Such a young man is able to succeed in teach ing various lines of agriculture and may take up investigational work with reasonable surety of securing val | uable results.
 The demand is for highly trained men who can do things with the assur- ance of good results. The demand for capable farm superintendents, man. agers. stockmen and dairymen is great, CT than the supply. The average young man can usually get place, but the best positions are awaiting those with widest experience and most thorough training

Some inventions of great possible benefit to mankind are often delayed by trivial details.
 You no doubt have heard of smith and Jones. They have been used prlh- cipally for illustrative purposes. But the Smith and Jones referred to here are not fictitious. You see, Elmer Smith was a conductor on trolley car and Homer Jones was motor man on another car. Smith was ln- ventively inclined, and he believes now that the saying that great minds run in the same channel is too vague. He thinks they run on the same troll ley wire. When he got acquainted with Jones he found the latter was also trying some mechanical improve ments, and thereafter they got to- gether at every opportunity to get the benefit of joint ingenuity.
 Smith lived in the middle of a block, and when he saw that rooms were to let on the opposite side of the same block he quickly told Jones, who moved there the next day. Work ingmen, as rule, have no trouble in moving quickly So Smith was happy because he could talk over his back fence with Jones. The diagram of the block below shows the relative To- cation of Smith and Jones on the same blocks:

BILLBOARD AN ANACHRONISM
What the District of Columbia Is Do ing to Abolish the
 Eyesore.

The district commissioners are to in connection with the billboard nui- sance, the Washington Post says. The advanced position taken receives the hearty indorsement of practically all residents of Washington and the abo- lition of the billboard eyesores may be the happy consummation of the not distant future. The decision to carry the matter to the courts is to be wei comed as clearing the ground for ulti- mate action in the case. The ruling of the court in this matter will show in what respects, if any, present laws need to be amended in order that the nuisance can be legally abolished; {; and in order to do this the case, when it goes to the courts for adjudication, should be made to cover every pos sible feature of the controversy. If the present law is not sufficient to vemedy the abuse congress can be de- pended upon to make it broad enough 10 cover every emergency.
 The development of aesthetic ideas in recent years in America, par ticularly in connection with the beauti- fication of cities, has made the bill board an anachronism, as Commis- sioner Marfarland declares. While nearly everything else has felt the up. lift, the billboard keeps fast to its prestine hideousness.
 Not only is the day of the billboard passing in the cities, but there is evil dence that the smaller towns and the countryside are awakening to the necessity of action in the way of either abolition or strict regulation. Rail. roads are refusing permission for the erection of billboards upon their right of way and when the thrifty Jersey farmers are better educated perhaps a trip from Philadelphia to New York will less resemble journey through a tunnel of horrors.

The Concord of Smith and Jones
By Margaret Hathaway
CCopyright, by Daily Story Pub. Coo

Dear Jones: I'll stay in tomorrow niobt and wait for you. Yours, Smith"
 But the letter Smith got next day filled him with dismay. It read:
 Dear Smith: In order to ehect meeting I'll wait for you tomorrow night at my house. Yours, Jones.
 Both letters were dated the same night and referred to the following night. Consequently neither dared to leave his house that night, as each thought the other might do the same thing. And so another day was lost
 They were both rather exasperated, but the inventive genius of Smith got to work. "I'll drop him postal. ne said, and tell him to meet me to-mo9' row night on the northwest corner or this block. Then we'll be sure to come together"
 Jones had arrived at this decision, too. Smith was afraid to come out last night, and so was l." he said.
 Why don't you write him a letter and make a date?" asked Mrs. Jones.
 That's just what have concluded to do," said Jones. 'Tll ask him tc meet me at the southeast corner Of this block tomorrow night. Then I'll be sure to cut across h!s run" The next day Smith and Jones each received in the mail the communica- tions respectively sent by the one to the other.
 Smith read Jones' letter Why he asks me to meet him on the very oppo- site corner of this block. Well. I'll go there
 When Jones read Smiths letter he said pretty nearly the same thing. The diagram below shows where they asked each other to be at the ap. pointed time-halfp past seven:
The log cabin Democrat., 1909-09-24

At 7:30 they were both at the ap- pointed corners, each acting on the others suggestion.
 Smith stood on his corner a minute thinking deeply. Jones is probably around on that other corner waiting or me-" he unused. Then bright idea struck him. "Ha! I'll go around Q his corner and get him"
 The brilliant brains of Jones per ceiyed, too that they had chosen op- oosite corners, and it was only neces- sary to go around to Smiths corner to see his partner. And, like Smith. he started off for the other corner. Now, it was strictly to their disad- vantage that great minds run in the same channel. For Smith and Jones made the mistake-althoug quite na" tural-of both going in the same di- rection with relation to each other. Smith started around the block by going west, while Jones went around the block easterly from his corner. When each got at the other corner. of course nobody was there. Then they both concluded that each had decided that the other, not finding anybody there, would go back to the appointed place. Smith retraced his steps and went back to his corner. and Jones did the same thing. Just then Smith req soned that he had done a bad thing, and the thing now to do was to go all around the block-take in all the four corners and thus surely include Jones. So he reversed bis course and went around the block. Smith had walked around the block four times without seeing Jones, when he caught glimpse of him just turning the corner down the street. Then Smith started off on dead run. It was just as Jones was turning that corner that he made up his mind that his pace was too slow O catch Smith and he let out. Around the block at full speed went Jones and around the block at a great rate went Smith. People saw a man run aing down the stret as if he were chasing trolley car, and little while another one came along flying in the same direction.
 At nine o'clock Smith came home, slammed the door and sat down and wrote:
 Dear Friend Jones: When yod want see me you will find me at my house. You can come whenever you Ike. Yours, Smith"
 And when Smith got home the next night he did not know whether the let .er he received from Jones was a re- Jly to his letter or not. It read:
 Dear Smith: I'm not goins out ights for the next six weeks. You now where ! live Yours, Jones'"
 It is expected that Smith and Jones will meet at an early day BLt this explains why some inventions are re- arded by triling circumstances.

The Bishops Choice.

A celebrated Anglican divine, the late bishop of Rochester, who had been ailing for some time, decided to consult Sir Frederick Treves, the not ed surgeon. After careful examina ton Sir Frederick pronounced his yer dict, and added: Your lordship must go to Algiers or some winter resort on the Riviera"
 Impossible" replied the bishop. "I have too much work to get through
 Well" said the doctor. you mus make your choice. It is either Algier: or heaven"

it. I'll be back in half hour," said Smith.
 In two minutes Smith knocked at Jones' door and Mrs. Jones appeared.
 Good evening"" said Smith, lis MT. Jones in?"
 Why, he has just gone around to your house-left two minutes ago"
 oh, is that so?" said Smith. m go right back. I want to see him."
 Meanwhile Mrs. Smith heard a knock at her door and found Jones there.
 Is Smith in?" he asked.
 No" replied Mrs. Smith, he went around to your house few minutes since. Won't you stay till he comes back?"
 No" said Jones, I'll run back We can talk there just as well. Good night"
 Jones had hardly left when the door opened in the way that Smith usually opened it. and Smith rushed in.
 Where's Jones? Mrs. Jones said he was here"
 Il, but I told him you had gone around to his house, and he went right back"
 Well" said Smith. T suppose I'll have to go around to his house again" 7" and off he went.
 Meanwhile Jones arrived at his own front door and Mrs. Jones informed him that Smith had hurried back to his own house when he was informed that Jones had gone there.
 Then I'll skip back to catch him in" said Jones, and out he rushed.
 It is needless to say that when Smith arrived at Jones door and Jones arrived at Smiths door both found that the other had gone back to the others house. This was actually re peated three times in each case, and when Smith got home the last time he hung up his hat and said: Well, I'll end this chase. I'll stay here now till Jones comes."
 Jones got tired of the runs" too, it seems, and Mrs. Jones suggested that he stay in until Smith come again That's a good idea" he said. Now we'll surely meet
 So they both stayed home and wait ed and waited. Of course, neither showed up.
 "I guess we'll never meet tonight" |" said Smith, looking at the clock. ITO avoid any possible repetition of this kind I'll drop Jones a note" This is what he wrote:
