USEFUL LIFE OF GREEN
v. BEARD ENDS
Dies At The Age Of Eighty.Six At
His Home In Hardinsburg.
Important Man OF Business,
Political, Social, And ReIig-
ious Life. Born In Wr-
ginia


Hardlnsburg, April %. (Special)-
Green w. Beard was born in Franklin
county, Va. Dec. 27, 1925 and died at
his home in Hardinsburg April Is, 1919.
He was Sc years old.
While he was yet a small COY his
parents moved to Kentucky and settled
near Freedom church, this county. At
the age of twelve he was left an orphan
and was brought to Hardinsburg for
the purpose of being an apprentice.
In the court room he was told to select
some man present with whom he would
like to live. After scanning the faces
and reading them as only a shrewd
child can read he took his stand be-
side Elijah r. Eskridge, father of the
late Morris Eskridge, land said: 81 want
TO live with this man." 1t was wise
selection. He was taught the trade of
a cabinet workman and reared with
that care that developes industry, hon.
esty, and the nobler traits that meas
ure the real man. He was a good
workman: in fact, it was said he did
only the best of work. Thorougbness
was characteristic of the young man,
and to the close of his life, industry
was one of his prominent traits. For
years he was in the mercantile bust
ness, being a member Ct the firm of
Beard and Hensley. At subsequent
period ? sold goods himself after his
Withdrawal from the firm.
Throughout his long life he was
closely Unidentified with the history of
Hardinsburg, his adopted town, and the
welfare of his county was ever near his
heart. One of the original temperance
advocates in the county, he gave his
time and means to combat the evil Of
strong drink. With what help he
could secure he waged the fights, even
furnishing the entire expense in some
of the earlier temperance campaigns.
He was sheriff of the county through a
part of the Civil War period, and at a
later date was elected to represent the
county in State legislature. Too, no
work more than the church work claim
ed his attention. Until failing strength
within the last two years began to Keep
him away, HIS 'lacs at the Sunday
school, pray err -eeting, as class leader,
or as listenae al the pew, was always
allied at thu Methodist Episcopal Church
South. Year after year he was the
delegate to the annual conference. He
omitted no church duty and faithfully
lived to his vows; an exemplary Christ
ian, useful man whose life was a
great moral and Christian force, whose
going leaves a vacancy that the years
may scarcely fill.
A happy marriage on Easter Sunday
in 1850 gave him as helpmate Miss

Big Crowd at Enron to Meet
The Kentucky Agricultural Train
Cold April Wind Does Not Keep Farmers at Home-Five
4 Numbered Come to Hear Lectures From the Roll
ING School House-Commssione of Agriculture J. w.
Newman Delighted See the Crowd

The largest crowd it encountered
met the Agricultural train at Enron
Thursday afternoon. The rolling
SCHOOL house was scheduled to arrive
there at 2:15 but 1t was about thirty
minutes late. When it pulled on the
switch it was overtaken by not less
than five hundred people, most of them
farmers from Garrett, Sorocco, Pay
nesville, Ekron and other places in
Meade county.
The Home Economic Car was crowd
ed by women who heard a splendid
lecture by Miss Murphy. Mrs. Chas. p.
Weaver also made short address to
the women. She was greatly gratified
at the interest manifested.
Of particular interest to many was
the dairy, poultry and stock car in
charge of Prof. Hooper, Of State Uni
versity.
Enron was certainly delighted with
the train-even her colored people
came out to get glimpse of her
states educational enterprise. Ekron
felt that the visit of the Agricultural
train was great compliment to the
thriving little town and they welcomed
it heartily.
Mrs. Chas. p. Weaver, of Louisville,
gave an interesting and inspiring talk
in the "Home Economics" car and
started the ball rolling to organize a
"Home Economics Club" in Enron
The name of Mrs. Zack Cox was sug
gested for president and Mrs. Fry
mire's name for secretary. After
personal talk with Mrs. George May
mes and her sister, Miss Julia Medley,
Mrs. Weaver got them interested in
promoting the club at once. They took
hold of the work and will assist in
pushing it. This club will make Enron
grow, just like sunshine does flower
and great results are expected from it.
Miss Zula Cox and Maetta Drake
have been appointed correspondents at
Enron for The Breckenridge News
They are bright energetic young girls
and Ekron now will be given "All the

watch and two suits of nice clothes
for raising the best corn in Meade
county, was in to see the train. He
raised SAN bushels of corn last year
on one-half acre. His age is twelve
years and he is not much taller yet

will lose a good teacher, however, this

Hager Speaks For Primary
Judge S. w. Hager, of Greensboro,
addressed the committee, urging that
a preferential primary be called to Sc
lect the delegates to the state conven-
ton if one could be so arranged to be
held without too much expense being
attached to the candidates. Judge
Hager said he had asked the managers
of the other presidential candidates
to join him in urging the primary. He
said he was prepared to say that the
friends of Gov. Wilson would furnish
an election officer for each precinct,
who would agree to serve without COM
pensation, which would bring the cost
down.
