In Memeriam.

On April Ia, 1915, Mr. :, Delaney Rob-
inson passed over to- another world.
He was familiarly known as 'Uncle
Hooter Robinson. >" He was born July
II 1887, and so would have been 10
years old at his next birthday. He
obeyed the gospel in 1866 under the
preaching of Isaac T. Renneau, of
Clinton county. He was a plain un-
assuming man, good citizen, honest
and industrious, and true to his fam
lily. He was twice married, first to
Miss Hendrickson, and second to Miss
Harriet Ingram. His widow and elev-
en- children and numerous relatives
survive him. The family hereby ex-
press their gratitude and thanks for
the attention and kindness shown by
his neighbors during his long illness.
The Giver of all good will not forget
them.

Needed Improvement.

The street leading from Mr. J. S.
Breeding's front corner of his yard to
the Graded School building has been
greatly improved; About sixty feet
of Miss Eliza Todd lot was purchased,
and the acquiring OF this piece of land
enabled the ,townito run a straight
stretch from said Breeding corner to
the school building. This change i'm
proves the appearance OF the various
residences located on The street. The
old road bed was sold to Mr.. J. S.
Breeding which will enable him to
straighten his lot. This improve
nent was brought about by Mr.. L. C..
Winfrey, who has been working for
two years to accomplish it. The
change makes the property on the
street more valuable and greatly en-
hances the appearance of that part of
town.

Swat the Fly.

This is the time of year to swat the
fly, better known as the common house
fly. The flies that survive the winter
produce the millions which in the next
August crawl through manure piles
and through heaps of filth, over the
butter, tickle your bald spots, and fin
ally are drowned in the baby's milk.
From filthy open privies which exist
in every locality, they may take ty-

The Georgetown Tigers have launch
ed out on the baseball sea, running
over Lexington to 5, and also scor-
ing a great victory over Ohio Univer-
sity. That which makes this of es-
pecial interest to this county and
community, is the fact that Mr.. R.
D. Judd is manager and coach of this
team, which is the highest honor to
be gained on the athletic field. The
following is taken from the George
town News:
HE is worthy of his predecessor in
that he is clean, honest and square.
Coach Hinton has always been known
for such qualities and the college
prides itself on being able to fill his
place in this respect with such a man
as Mr.. Judd. Then too professor
Judd has had considerable experience
coaching base ball. Besides being an
able coach he is ''corking good play
er" himself. Furthermore he is ev-
en-tempered and naturally qualified
to direct and control men,"
Mr.. Judd is also President of the
Georgetown Y. NJ. C. A, and was Sc
lected from the large number of dele
gates to make the opening address Of
the State Y. M. G. A. meeting at

A CARD.

Jamestown, KY, April 81, 1915.
To the Republicans of the Twenty
Ninth judicial District:
It seems fitting now that 1 should
make some public announcement con-
corning my position relative to the
Circuit Judgeship In this District 1
have received so many letters asking
nae to become q candidate for the
nomination, and so many inquiries
fiaye been made as to my intentions,
that it would be unfair longer to keep
silent.
This is not exactly an announce
ment of my candidacy. That will
come later, If I am convinced that
such an announcement ought to be
made. However, may say that 1
had planned for myself an entirely
different course. I have no partic-
ular love for the turmoil and the petty
jealousies of politics. l shall try to
keep aloof from any thing that would
engender these; but it will be with
genuine regret that turn away from
the pleasures of private life and the
plans I have fondly hoped to carry
out.
1t is generally taught and believed
that in this country no one has the
right. without strong reasons, to dis
regard the call of his constituents to
public positions Sometimes men are
mistaken about being called, and
whether they are or not can be deter
mited sometimes only by an election.
I only know that have received many
times more solicitations to become a
candidate this time than 1 ever did
before in my life, and the demand has
been SO insistent and strong that /
have been surprised no little.
If the demand should continue. and
should prove to be not merely tenn
porary wave but, on the other hand,
the settled conviction of large body
of thoughtful Republicans, I should
feel impelled to forego my own plans
and give up what seems to me the
most agreeable course, in order ia
| comply with the wishes of my fellow
citizens.
| I'll shall become a candidate, so fai
as am concerned, the campaign will
be conducted with absolute freedom
from personalities. 1 shall avoid even
criticism of the po'"'eal OF cfficial
records of my opponei.-- Iii mere.
ly state to the people what course
expect to pursue in Office, if elected,
and submit the question to them
! This course can not injure our party
and it will injure no living man. III
AS to the final result, I shall be
quite as well satisfied one way as the
other. If shall fail to receive a ma.
jority of the votes, L shall have escap.
ed onerous duties. If 1 shall receive
a majority, I shall feel it a high honor
and call to give my entire time and
such abilities as have to the service
of this District for six years
