LACLEDE FAIR SEPTEMBER is
OF Course You viii Be Here Everybody Comes
The One Big Event Of the Year

At largely attended and enthu-
siastic meeting held in the park
Saturday afternoon it was decided
that the annuaf fair of the Jeffer-
son Township Agricultural socie-
ty will be held this year as usual,
and the date set is Friday, Sep
tember Is. The new officers are
George w. Anderson, president:
J. Paul Jones, vice-president; W.
S. Satage, secretary and 4. w.
Lomax, treasurer.
The new officers are bunch OF
hustlers and will do all in their power
to make the fair a success, but
it will take the cooperation of all to
make it what it should be. More
money than usual will be needed
this year, as the old pens and
tables will have to be replaced
with new ones, so when the solicit
ing committee calls on you it will be
we'll to add a little to what you us
ualIy contribute.
The Laclede fair is always good,
bat let's try a little harder this
year and make it the best ever. "
If you cannot give anything toward
the expenses, or even if you can
and do, try to have something
ready to enter in as many depart
ments as possible. Make it dis
play like we had years ago. 1t
will possibly take a little more
work than usual, but as an adver-
tisement for the township and
county there is nothing that can
come anywhere near a fine agri-
cultural display.

Death Of Mrs. ". b. Glover

Ella Ray Glover, the subject Of
the following notice, died August
s, 1911, after a lingering illness
of several years, aged 81 years, 6
months and 80 days. Mrs. Glover
was born in the neighboring
county of Charlton Jan. 8, 1874,
but nearly all her life was spent in
Linn county. She was married to
w. III. Glover April 20, 1898. To
this union four children we're born,
who, with the husband, survive.
Three sisters and two brothers
also remain to mourn her loss.
Previous to her marriage she
united with the Presbyterian
church of Laclede and during her
long sickness remained the patient
and hopeful christian that she was.
The funeral services were held
Wednesday afternoon in the home,
conducted by her former pastor,
W. Sissons, assisted by Rev.
Powell of the M. E. church. and
was largely attended by sympathet-
ic friends. Burial was in Laclede
cemetery.
Rarely has the writer seen such
care and devotion as the husband
and children exhibited toward the
mother during her long years OF
pain and suffering. 1t has been
a most unusual case of brave en-
durance, matched by heroic de-
votion.

The great event in every Young
man IS life is his awakening. There
comes a time when he is aroused
from the dreamy carelessness OF
boyhood by the opening possibilities
of life. Ifhe drops into Indifference
and begins life in an easy, shiftless
way, he fritters away his chances.

arrives early at the highest rank
