A Worthy Act

Friends and neighbors, includ-
ing members of the Woodmen of
the World lodge who were the
prime movers in the affair, met
at the home of j. d. Blakely,
west of town, Thursday morning,
and with their teams and farm
implements proceeded to put in
his crop of small grain.
Twenty-seven teams, composed
OF two, three and four-horse out
fits, were at work during the day
and at the close of operations in
the evening they had plowed
thirty acres, seeded fifty, har-
rowed the entire fifty acres once
and all but about twelve acres
over the second time.
Mr.. Blakely has been sick for
a couple of years and unable to
do any work and all that had
been done this spring towards
putting in crop was performed
by his two daughters, Misses
Beulah and Pearl.
While they all done a hard days
work there was not one but was
conscious of the fact that he had
followed out the teachings of the
Golden Rule in assisting worthy
neighbor and brother, and felt
better down deep in his heart for
SO doing.
1t is just such acts of human
kindness as this that cements the
bonds of friendship between man
and man and makes life worth
the living.
The family provided a most ex-
cellent and bountiful dinner to
which all did justice.
The following assisted in the
work:
Alex. Brazelton, Jos. Brazel-
ton, Geo. Blakely, Jesse Grouse,
| A. G. Cornforth, Ben Cook, Fred
and Walter Dittemore, Chas.
