In Automobile Accident.

Sunday afternoon, June 4th,
R. j. Funkhouser and family
were returning to their home in
Hagerstown, having driven out
to Big Pool in their Mitchell tour
ing car. AS they were passing
the Charlton road a few miles
east of Hagerstown, car driv-
en- by VIM. A. Gehr, also of
Hagerstown, dropped out sud-
denly from the Charlton road
and in an instant the two cars
were into each other. The Gehr
car was a Buick Six, and both
cars were badly damaged. Mr..
Funkhouser sustained a badly
bruised leg, and his small child
was seriously injured. The Gehr
party escaped with minor injur-
les. Mr.. Funkhouser was re-
moved to the Washington county
Hospital, but it was found that
no bones had been broken.

FOrtY.One Years 400.

Last Sunday, Rev. w. M. Cline
assisted Rev. Edward Jackson at
the communion. services in the
M. E. church, McConnellsburg.
At the close of services, Rev.
Cline stated that while he had at
tended prayermeetings down
stai RS, it was the first time in
forty-one years that he had been
in the upstairs room Of tn e
church. On the last occasion,
April Z, 1875, he united in mar
riage, in that room, ''one of Nc
Connellsburg's best young men
to one of its very best young la
dies, namely, George B. Shoemak
er, and Miss Blanche Baldwin. "
Mr.. Cline said that there were
but two in the audience last Sun
day that were present on that oc-
casion-A. u. Mace and George
w. Hays.

BOOth-..Knauff.

A beautiful wedding ceremony
was performed Wednesday even
ing, June ID, 1916, at s O'Clock,
at the home of Mr.. William Hull,
East Lincoln Way, McConnells-
burg, when Mr.. Emory Booth,
of Altoona, and Miss Nettie Alice
Knauff, of McConnellsburg were
united in marriage by the Rev. L.
F. Zinkhan, a cousin of the bride.
The parlors were decorated in
all the glories of a June day in
the forests. A pretty Ii title
brides bower had been arranged
in the large bay-window under
which the happy groom met his
bride and in the presence of about
eighty guests, they repeated the
vows Until Death do US part. :"
to the strains of the wedding
march by Miss Olive Pittman.
The brides gown was a white
Georgette crepe over white satin.
She carried Brides Roses and
Lilies of the Valley. Two nieces
of the bride, Mary Knauff and
Katharine Hull, were dainty lit
tie flower girls. Mr.. Harry Heet
er, of Altoona, was best man,
and the matron of honor was
Mrs. Martha McIntire. In all,
it was one of the prettiest
weddings ever held in McCon-
nellsburg. Mrs. L. F. Zinkhan,
wife of the officiating clergyman
of Washington, D. c., deserves
credit for her part in the arrange
ments.
A wedding supper was served
after the ceremony, and amidst
a'shower of rice, congratulations
and good wishes, Mr.. and Mrs.
Booth entered waiting auto and
were whisked to Chambersburg
and took train for Niagara Falls,
Chicago, and other points. In
about two weeks, they expect to
be at home to friends at 4011
Fifth Ave-, Altoona.

Bought HOlsteiuS.

A pure-bred Holstein COW came
to the Brookside Farm this week
from the herd of S. B. Lehman,
Chambersburg. This, with the
start already on hands, gives the
Patterson Brothers a pretty good
foundation to build up a fine herd
in a few years.
Henry Carbaugh also bought a
registered calf at the same time
from the same party. News
readers like to hear of transac-
tions like the foregoing. There
is a rapidly growing disposition
to raise the standard grade
of livestock in Fulton county, and
we take pleasure in recording all
advances.

Stop Occasionally.

We must rest occasionally. God
set the example when he rested
after having completed the work
of creation. He instituted the
Sabbath, making it unlawful for
Man to drive his tired body more
than six days without a day of
rest. He went even farther, de-
claring that the land should rest
every seventh nothing to
be taken from it except what the
cattle gathered. Again he order
ed that after seven sabbath rest
years had been observed, the
forty-ninth and fftieth years
should be sabbaths. (Note that
sabbath" is not spelled with a
capital, for the people of Bible
times it carried a different mean
ing from merely the name of a
day. See Leviticus 25.
Rest does not necessarily mean
cessation from action. Rather,
it means a change for the mind.
In the lower order of animals the
body governs the mind-or what
passes for mind. But in the hu-
man being, the order is - or
should be-reversed. 1t stands
to reason then, that when the
mind becomes weary of monot-
ony, the body fails to perform
the everyday duties of life sue
cessfully. Self-slavery is the
stumbling stone to more failures
than, perhaps, any other obsta-
Gle. Times without number have
we noted men who work by the
light of a lantern at both ends of
the day until their brains almost
stop action while the neighbor
who took time to think and rest
a little seemed to prosper finan-
cially and socially to a degree
the other never hoped to attain.
1t is very plain, therefore, that
we should stop occasionally and
do something out of the ordinary
so as to rest the mind, for the
business of farming is not what
it once was. A certain amount
of reading is as necessary now
as is the use of modern machi-
merry, fertilizer, and all the new
things that no one can learn sole
ly by his own observation.
We believe that the automobile
will save many a weary country
woman from home in an asy-
lum. Be willing to spend a little
money to give her ride that
will take her to new scenes
sights and sounds that will re-
lieve the tension on that weary
mind.

No Name 10 Il.

Last week we received a long
letter from an unknown friend,
in which his neighbors were Chi
ded for the alleged misuse of
certain road features. The wri-
ter did not sign his name to the
article. hence we cannot print it.
We beg to state again that we
cannot undertake to regulate
matters involving personal diff
ferences in a locality, and more
especially when parties of both
sides are unknown to us. This
makes it fair to all of our many
friends.

Last Saturday, Ed Brant load

ber, south of Johnstown, in four
hours. They stopped with their
friends over night and returned
next day in about the same run

Farm Notes.

The National Stockman and
Farmer of a recent date contains
some timely hints, among which
we note that the high price of
farm machinery will in all proba-
bility, continue-or may go high
er, because manufacturers of
steel and iron are refusing to
book orders for material for fu-
ture delivery, even at the high
prices now obtained.
The same paper gives warning
that while the price of prime
long-fed" steers may touch $12
the fair to good" class will sure
ly drop in price, and, further,
This would be a good year to
clean up and cash all trash in our
herds while the cashing is good. "
The silo, like the auto, was a
long time in finding it's place on
the farm. But having found it,
we may very soon expect to see
every barn fitted with a silo, in
proportion as knowledge of its
value soaks in.
Would you invest dollar if
you knew for a certainty that
you3would thereby make $5, $50,
or possibly, $500, within a year?
We have the farmers own state
ment for it that the foregoing
figures are fair samples of re-
turns where counties aided the
State in the payment of the sala-
ry and expenses of a County
Agent. It's about the same as
having the farmers institute on
your farm 965 days in the year.
