Daviess county people will attend the

ensboro to Hartford. Automobiles
may be parked in the grounds. The

Hartford College began its 37th

vorable circumstances. The enroll

town students were among those who
registered. Members of the school
board and a good crowd of patrons

opening exercises. Mr.. Brown, pres
ident of the school, stated Monday
that he was much pleased with the
outlook for the coming year and
predicts one of the most successful
terms in the history of the insti-

Ohio county surely takes the prize
when it comes to freak pig tales
(notice the spelling). Mr.. Joe Rob-
ertson is now out with this one. He
says he has pig that is not only
blind but has no eye balls at all.
Only the usual sunken place marks
the spot where the eyes should be.
The pig was born in this condition
and the other porkers of his imme-
date family so sympathize with him
that they lead him to his feed and
water. When Judge r. e. L. Sim
norman and DIR. A. B. Riley express
ed doubt as to the veracity OF Mr..
Robertson's story they were invited
to inspect the animal. which they
did. simmerman gave the pig a
scientific inspection but is still doubt
full. He admits that II is blind and
gets around wonderfully we'll but
doubts its being a pig. DR.. Riley,
however, is completely converted.
