boys, he goes to Sunday school.
On a Sunday morning recently,
as he was on his way to Sunday
school, his eye caught sight of
something shining in the leaves
by the sidewalk in front of the
Fulton House, and upon picking
it up, found that he had in his
hand a splendid gold watch. He
kept a lookout for the owner.
When the FULTON COUNTY News
came out the following week, it
contained an advertisement in the
Lost and Found column, stating
that a watch had been lost, and
gave directions for its return.
Clifford promptly sent the watch
to its owner, who happened to be
an automobile tourist, and was
rewarded by receiving a crisp
fve-dollar bill,

Foot and Mouth Disease Here.

Foot and mouth disease has be
come epidemic in many states
and State and Federal authorities
are calling on all cattle owners tt
work together to stamp it out.
No cattle may be shipped into,
or out of the state. The disease
has appeared to an alarming ex-
tent in Franklin, Lancaster, York
Allegheny, Chester, Montgom-
cry, Northumberland, Snyder,
Lebanon and Bucks counties.
State authorities ask that as soon
as an animal is suspected of hav-
ing this dreaded disease, it be
separated far from others, or kill
ed and that others be kept from
drinking from the same stream,
passing over the same grounds,
or in any manner whatever, be-
ing exposed to the disease. Re-
port all cases at once to the State
Agricultural Department at Har-.
risburg. Also, see to it that your
neighbors obey the request to
stop the spread of the trouble.
Keep it out of Fulton county by
all means.
