earth, was the modest son of an
Illinois farmer. The first machine
to make taoks was the creation of a
Massachusetts farm lad-Thomas
Blanchard and the device that
furnished the world with the mod
ern screw was the work of a poor
Vermont genius-Thomas Harvey
quiet, thoughtful farmers son.
To the resourcefulness of an Ohio
farm boy-Charles +. Brush-who
invented the dynamo, the world is
indebted for its present day great
industrial and power plants that

business methods of the world.
Where service is the only Gre

WAS OBSERVED

While no services were held
either in Genoa or Gardnerville to
commemorate Memorial day, the
spirit of the day was carried out by
individuals in the most effective
way. The dead were not forgotten
and their graves were slrewn with
flowers by relatives and friends.
In numerous instances where the
little mound OF earth marked a
long-forgotten grave, passing
kind hearted person would pause
and drop a spray OF green or a
bunch of flowers upon the sod that
covered the once throbbing breast
of the unknown. This was par
ticularly so in the Genoa cemetery.
In the Gar len cemetery the
graves were buried beaeath beauti-
full flowers. The Ode Fellows
whose pact live beyond the tomb
remembered their honered dead
by strewing their brothers graves
with flowers.
During the past few months,
many improvements have been
made to different plots in the three
cemeteries by adding cement cope
ings and the like.
