Kittie Hannum of Montvlle, and three sons,
James of Montville; George of Liberty and
Charles of Reading, Mass; also nine grand
children and thirteen great grandchildren. The
following poem is published by request.
A VACANT PLACE
There's song whose notes are low and sweet
And the words are sad and tender,
Through my heart it seems to throb and beat
With wave of departed splendor,
There's face that never in mortal ken
Shall smile on the loved left lonely,
And feet that walk not in ways of men,
And q voice that in dreams comes only.
There's a harp that lies with broken string,
And a leaf turned down, of story;
A song on the rack that she used to sing,
Who sings now in the realms of glory.
There's chair left vacant, where mem'ry
shows,
As the twilight round US closes,
A form that lieth in soft repose
And face that is meath the roses.
There's piece of work in the basket dropped
Twas designed as loving token
It lies unfinished, the needle stopped
When the thread of lifew broken;
There's an Angel now on the other side
And on this home left lonely
There's vacant chair by the fireside
And voice that in dreams comes only.

Not a New Parasite

The little white parasite that has
attacked the grasshoppers, ap-
peared here about 20 years ago
when the hoppers were particu-
larly bad and it was then thought
the problem of the grasshopper
would be solved. And perhaps
their comparative scarcity for
number of years can be attributed
in part to this parasite. If SO, it
is to be hoped that they will get in
their good work again.
