drinking an ounce of posion in a
field near her home. She mark
ed the location of her body by
hanging a wooden bucket with a
white rag on it in a tree. She

read upon war news like men
did. She had a second grade
certificate. She had taught

SCAFFOLD TAKEN DOWN

The big scaffold erected at the
west side of the Teter building
about two months ago for the
purpose of holding bricks, NOR
tar, concrete bars, ETC., while
the workmen took down and re-
laid the fire walls and coping,
has been taken away. Geo. Ed
mund and Milroy Taylor had the
job, and they were only few
days at it. This scaffold filled
the place for which it was in
tended, and saved several dol
lars in keeping characterization
being handled from the TOP
down and from the ground up
again, which would have been
done had Mr.. Teter not erected
this gigantic scaffold.
There will be several changes
on the inside of the building
when the finishing begins. The
old dilapidated front, will be re-
placed by new copper and glass
front extending all the way out,
with one main entrance in the
center front. The building will
be equipped with its own light
ing and power system.

WEST VIRGINIA FREED
FROM QUARANTINE

WASHINGTON, D. c., July
29.-The entire State of West
Virginia is now freed from
quarantine for foot-and-mouth
disease, the order taking effect
July &c. The States of Kansas
and Connecticut are freed by
the same order, which also re-
leases five counties in New York,
four in Pennsylvania, and ore
in Illinois. Changes in the
quarantine in Kentucky, Mary
land, and Virginia, leave the
stock yards at Louisville, Balti-
more and Richmond the only
quarantined areas in these
states. The yards are limited
to handling live stock for imme-
date slaughter. With these
changes there is now very little
territory remaining quarantined
for foot-and-mouth disease in
the United States. With the ex-
ception of a few stock yards,
the quarantine is now confined
to three counties in New York,
two in Pennsylvania, four in
Illinois, and a part of one in
New Jersey.
