WILL HOLD REUNION

WASHINGTON, Ang. IA reunion
of the Union Light Guard, which was
the bodyguard Of President Lincoln
for two years during the Civil war, is
planned in Washington during the
encampment of the Grand Army of the
Republic.
While conversing with Secretary Of
War Stanton in 1868, the governor Of
Ohio offered to obtain a body guard
for President Lincoln. The governor
asked for a picked man from each
county in Ohio. Each man thought he
was going to the front to lead a "for-
lorn hope" and he gave his life when
he enlisted. When the soldiers ar
rived in Washington they were inform
ed they were to be the bodyguard Of
the president.
They were quartered on the ellipse
south of the treasury, and some Of
them were on guard every hour. There
we're 1O8 men in company. and nearly
every county was represented.

Prices and Total Value

The prosperity of farmers depends
not SO much upon the amount of
production as upon the total amount
of money received for what they
produce. Thus, this years cotton
crop is the largest ever produced,
but it's value to the farmers is much
less than the value of any crop of
recent years. On the other hand,
the corn crop, in total production,
is only a moderate one, having
been exceeded four times in the
past 10 years; but the high prices
prevailing make it the most valuable
corn, crop ever produced. In fact
this years corn is the most valuable
of any one crop ever produced in
this country, and undoubtedly, in any
country.
The producers of wheat have
benefited by a combination of very
large production and high prices,
caused by the war and moderate
production in foreign countries.

Extend it

Ii is pointed out that the rural
free delivery service costs
$40, 900. 900 per year more than it
brings in. Well, suppose it does!
The rural free delivery service is do
ing more good to the country than
half dozen projects like the Panama
canal. 1t has made life on the farm
less isolated and more agreeable and
does it's share to stop the cityward
tide. Farm values for last year are
put at forty billions of dollars. This
year the products of the farm were
worth about ten billions--not quite
but nearly. That is business worth
catering to. The rural service
should be extended, not curtailed.

Took a Hike
(By Scout Secretary

(By Scout Secretary
The boy Scouts" left town on
Saturday morning at 10 a. m.
bound on a hike into the country.
They were accompanied by Mr..
A. P. Fraser and headed by
Scout master Rev. O. w. Smith.
They were going to visit the A.
j. Fraser farm, north of town,
upon invitation. A cracking
fire was built upon arrival,
around which to keep warm,
while waiting for a few
;tragglers.
When the stragglers arrived
they entered the house. They
were soon set to work; for work
it was to dispose Of the abund-
ance of fresh apples, baked
apples, sandwiches, dough nuts,
pumpkin pie and chocolate. 1t
didn't take long to see that there
was expansion some where, con-
sidering how rapidly the re-
freshments diminished. One
member was known to have dis
posed of five sandwiches, three
pieces of pie and gracious knows
how many dough nuts, endeavor-
ing to find out what was wrong
with them, but he didn't find out
unless it was about 1 a. m. that
night.
From the bounteous repast the
program ran to story telling.
Many were the things contribut-
