moved except for such faults as justify

all cases; nor that. in any case calling

of a 35-year romance was reaped by
Georgia A. Noe of Marengo, o., and
Winfred Brown of Morland, Kas., to-
day when they were married at the
home of the brides nephew, F. e.
Short.
Lovers in youth, the two had been
separated by the sense of duty to her
parents that kept Miss Noe by their
side and later by the marriage of her
sweetheart to another girl. When
freedom came to each the interrupted
courtship was resumed The bride is
SO years old and her husband is Sc.
Miss Noe was a leader of the young
people of College Springs, Iowa, when
the romance began. Mr.. Brown at
tended school with her and for several
years they "kept company" At last he
proposed, but was refused because
the parents of Miss Noe were aged
and she was needed to care for them.
Brown married a short time later, his
bride being another girl of the same
town. Then ne moved to Kansas. He
now owns farm of over 1000 acres.

wife of Mr. Brown died and a year
later he began writing to his youthful
sweetheart. The two met at the Short
home for the first time in "a years.

when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-

INTERESTING
Convention Of MartinSburg
Group OF Presbyterian
Churches
(By Ozro r. Newcomb)

The four Presbyterian churches of
the Martinsburg group met for confer
ence Saturday, Oct. 18th. No more de-
lightful day ever greeted the senses
than was given us for our meeting.
The morning program went off with.
out flaw. One hundred Winona
hymn books had heen provided and
the congregational singing was unus-
ually good; but the special music all
through the day was exceptionally en-
joyable.
The new basement, making the
church one of the best equipped coun-
try churches know, was filed by Wis
iting Presbyterians and right royalty
fed by the Millwood ladies.
The afternoon program was anoth-
er treat The home talent of our
churches was at it's best in paper and
address with a climax in the speech
of the Hon. A. p Sandles of Colum-
bus. If Sandles takes everywhere as
he did in Millwood, he is one of the
most popular men in the state. His
address was just what we wanted
witty, informing, inspiring.
! Millwood got the banner for The
best Sunday school record for the
year.
Little John Calvin Baker, born just
400 years after John Calvin of Geneva
and adopted by the conference last
year at Bladensburg, was presented to
the conference but for good reasons
was excused from making a speech.
A perfect moonlight night made the
rather late homeward drivea pleasure
and rounded out profitable and de-
lightful day.
Mt. Pleasant entertains the confer
ence next year.
