public that we are still on strike at the
Old Homestead Bakery for a living
wage and recognition. The drivers of
the Old Homestead Bakery are telling
that everything ID 4ettled and the Old
Homestead Bakery fair. We ask our
Ir1enuS anu the Puvuc not 10 DeueVe IL,
until such time az qElr label appears on
the bread That Is fhe only evidence of a
settlement. The Old Homestead Bakery
was placed on The funfair list by the
Bakers Union and all Central Labor
bodies. Do you be1teve in justice and a

bakers by asking and insisting that you
have our label on jan bread. 1t also
insures you that the bread was baked
by healthful bakers in sanitary bake
shops, and will cost no more.
The Old Homestead Bakery has most
ly boys working ami refuses to recog-

save one member, knew any thing of
the approaching wedding until a few
minutes before it happened, neither
was such a thing suspected in the
neighborhood.
The young couple had been SO quiet
In their courtShip that no one thought
OF any special intimacy developing in
TO even a fondness for each other. So
they are entitled to the prize for the
greatest surprise wedding of any pre-
vious one in all this country. They
are splendid young people, and have
the best wishes of all the people in
the community.

Talking of Going West.

We would be glad to see every young
man in Columbia in some profitable
employment, but the business is not
here to accommodate them all, hence
quite a number have no regular en-
gagement., Those who have reached
their majority, and who are out Of
employment because the business is
not here, are dissatisfied, and will
eventually go elsewhere, though they
dislike very much to leave their old
home. There are places for them in
the West, always are, for well-quali-
fed m9n, and those who want to
build up bank account, in their best
years, could not be censured for going
to more thriving country. Ifany of
our young men should contract the
Western fever, leaving the parental
roof for more thriving country, we
trust that when they pile up riches.
they will return to the old stamping
ground to spend their money.

Eioped to Tennessee.

Last Friday afternoon Mr.. Press
Miller and Miss Ruth Ingram eloped
for Tennessee and were married some
time during the day Saturday, re-
turning to this place the first of this
week.
1t will be remembered that the
couple attempted TO get married in
JefferSonville several weeks ago, but
were foiled by the young lady'S ia
ther.
1t seems that they were determined
in their intentions, and their associ-
ateS knew that it was only question
of time when they would again leave
home for the purpose of becoming
one, hence Fridays elopement was
not altogether surprise.
The bride is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. w. L. Ingram. Mr.. Ingram being
prominent merchand of Columbia,
who was opposed to the marriage.
The groom is young business man,
who conducts grocery store on the
square, and is son of DR.. and Mrs.

The News extends its best wishes to
the young couple, that happiness and
prosperity may attend them through
life.

A Long and Useful Life Ended.

Sarah Rebecca Thomas, of the
Egypt neighborhood, died April 18th,
1913, at the home of her Son-in-law.
Jerome Hardwick. Mrs. Thomas was
born Oct. 9Th, 1927. Her maiden name
was Evans, daughtar of Benjamine
Evans, and is the last of six children.
She was married to Nelson Thomas in
1S47 and settled at the home where
they lived together at the same place
48 years at which time Mr.. Thomas
died. She continued to reside at the
same place until few years before
her death. She suffered two strokes
of paralysis, the first one about seven
years ago from which she rallied, later
she had second stroke from which
she partially recovered, but she has
been on the decline for several years.
Twelve children were born to this
union, ten of whom survive her, six
sons and four daughters. Seven of the
children attended the funeral.
Three of her sons reside in the West.
She surrendered her young life to God
in her youthful days and united with
the Christian Church at Mt. Pleasant
with her husband shortly after her
marriage and fought good fight and
kept the faith until the end came and
was ready to go. Her ten living chill
dren are all Christians and are all
prosperous and good citizens. AS a
companion she was indeed helpmate,
and did her part we'll in the making
of the new home, which was then sur
sounded with an unbroken forest. AS
a mother she trained her children to
industry and obedience and in the fear
of the Lord.
She leaves behind her a splendid
heritage in her sons and daughters as
citizens, good neighbors and Christ
ianS.
The funeral services were held at
the old home and was attended by a
large number of old neighbors, rela-
tiveS and friends.
She leaves besides her ten children
46 grandchildren and 2S great grand
children and one great, great grand
child. Will say to the children grieve
not for mother, but think of her death
as victory and coronation.

1t is Where Things and Men Grow.

Charles L. Moore, a writer on the
Louisville Times, started out Friday
of last week, as was published in that
paper, to find the location of Columbia
KY. He visited many market places,
observing the good things on sale, and
an impression was created in his mind
that they came from this place. He
asked number of hucksterS to locate
the town, but received no definite an
Swer, and believing that he is anxious
for the information, we will proceed.to
tell him.
Columbia is located in the South
Central portion of the State and is
surrounded by some of the best farm
ing lands in the Commonwealth. 1t is
here where from fifteen to twenty
barrels of corn are grown to the acre;
where the stately Oak and Poplar nod
to the traveller as he passes along the
highways; where every thing to refresh
the inner man grows in abundance
and where peace reigns supreme. 1t
is here where the crystal waters of
Green river and Russell creek flow
through the county of Adair, game
fish in great abundance being in the
same; where the city chap is often
seen angling for the perch and bass.
1t is a fresh air country where the
women and girls are rosy, and where
the men have strength sufficient to
knock down a steer.
1t is here where nearly every family
keep Jersey cows, the products of same
being shipped to Louisville. in order
that the city folk may see and taste
real butter. Oleomargerlne is not
wanted here. .
Fruits of every variety are grown
here, the luscious strawberries, peach
es, and appricots being the favorites.
The town of Columbia is an educa-
tional point. For more than a half
century good schools have been main
tained. young men and young women
from all parts of the State being in
attendance.
Tie town has furnished this State
with Governor in the person of Thos.
E. Bramlett, Lieutenant Governor,
j. r. Hindman, three Congressman,
and one Attorney General, in the per-
son of James Garnett. p. W. Hardin,
who served the State twelve years as
Attorney General, was born and reared
here. This town furnished the Cir
cult Judges in the district to which
Adair has belonged for more than forty
years, and if all signs do not fail it will
furnish the next Appellate Judge for
the Third district In the person of Hon.
Rollin Hurt.
Mr.. Moore will probably conclude
that Columbia is on the map; that its
surroundings and the town are places
where good things and men grow.
1t is place where the merchants
keep well selected stocks; where every
boy who has reached the age of seven
years can swim, and where the twelve
year old lad can take his 80 rife, go to
the woods: returning with a string of
1t is town where all law
white citizens are on equality,
and where but one man has been killed
in difficulty since the civil war.
If Mr.. Moore will come to Columbia
we will guarantee that he will spend
the time pleasantly and be pleased
with the best inland town in Ken
tucky. He would have an opportuni-
ty of walking on concrete from the
rising of the sun to the setting there
of, and at meal time furnished with
all the fish and fried chicken his ap-
petite would crave.
