GLENDALE

II was with many heartaches and much
giief that the many friends and neighbor'
of David LoAand heard of his death or
last Wednesday, at the age of siXty-tWC
years. A more friendly and true gentle
man, with heartful of love for his fellow
men and reverence for his Master, was
not to be found. His ambition seemed
to be the comfort and pleasure of his
family, indulge them with the luxury and
comforts Oflife, to which end he exhausted
his recourses. He was a practical farmer
and great student, and an able authority
on all agricultural subjects. He leaves
wife, three daughters, Mrs. VIM. Jester,
Mrs. VIM. Donovan and Miss Lofland,
and one son to grieve over the loss of a
true and faithful husband and a devoted
father. The largest funeral that was
ever seen in this community followed
the body TO Old New Market, where it is
said one thousand persons gathered to
pay homage to an honored and faithful
friend.
Maud Clendaniel the only child of
ten years of age, died Tuesday morning
after a sickness of several weeks with a
peculiar malady that baffeled the skill
of the physicians. Maud was a great
favorite with all who knew her, and her
pleasant smile and sweet gentle voice
will be missed by all Funeral services
were held at the house on Thursday, and
interment at Red Men Cemetery.

ENGLAND GUARDING
AGAINST ENEMIES

L e.
LONDON, Sept. .. - The British
government is adopting stringent
regulations in order to keep out of
England alien enemies. who hereto
fore have been permitted TO land Nh
der the guise of Americans, whose
citizenship was attestcd by consular
certificates granted on the conti-
nent. After September IA, consular
certificates will not be accepted as
proof of the American citizenship of
those arriving from the continent.
These persons will not be permitted
to land unless they are provided
with passports.
This measure has been urged by
the American relief committee,
which frequently has been victimiL-
ed by fraudulent claimants of Amer
lean citizenship. The committee
says, however, that it is DESTROYS
both of protecting its own funds
from imposters and of preventing
suspicion that the United States is
assisting the enemies of Great Brit
ain.
These consular certificates. 1t is
alleged, have been issued wholesale
in some of the continental cities,
without anything approaching an
adequate investigation to determine
whether the applicants for them
really were Americans or entitled to
American citizenship.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES
(By Courtney Horton }

The City High School baseball
team, following Mayor Oldham's
Cleanup proclamation, adj
ministered severe drubbing to
the Winchester High School
team at the Fair Grounds Friday
afternoon by the score of 5 to 1.
Owings, pitching for the visitors,
was in fine form, striking out ii
men, but he gave way to a fussi-
lade of hits in the fifth inning.
Coleman on the mound for the
locals, was backed up by good
support and had the opposing
team we'll in hand all the way.
Last Tuesday morning, April
arst, DIR. Leon ard w. Snyder, OF
Philadelphia, known ds the
Boys Minister" addressed the
student body in ChapeI on the
subject Education and Our Flu
ture.' His address was a most
enjoyable one and was appre-
ciated very much by all who
were present.
Apparently not satisfied with
defeating Winchester Friday,
twelve City School students ac-
companied by Prof. Jetton
boarded the $50 train Saturday
morning and went to Cynthiana,
where they took part' in an in
terscholastic contest. The re-
suit was that they were victor
ious in three of the four contests
in which they were entered. The
athletic events were to be held
in the afternoon but Jupiter
Pluvius interferred. However,
they will be run off in our city at
the Fair Grounds next Monday
afternoon. Our boys will have
entries in the 100, 22O and 40
yard dashcs; half-mile; relay ;
running high jump; running
broad jump, and shot put. In
addition to this there will be a
baseball game between the Mt.
Sterling High School and Gym
thiana High School teams. Gym
thiana has one of the strongest
High School teams in the State.
This year they have defeated
Richmond, Lexington and Mil
lersburg and as yet have not
been overcome by an opponent.
While on the other hand our
boys record is untarnished by
defeat and they are going to do
