 The medical testimony addueed at ent condition the claimant was able to do work of an ordinary character which would not require continuous standing on his foot
 condition it is very apparent that the claimant can find work of character which will pay him at least two dol lars a day and upon this earning pow.

 In consideration of the facts brought out at the hearings the commissioner decreed that the respondents pay to the claimant. through his attorney, compensation at the rate of $10 week ly, according to the original award in the case. from the date of the last payment up to the last hearing. viz- Feb. 19, 1917. from which date he shall receive weekly the su moi SITS for partial disability. and in no case shall the weekly payments continue over a period to exceed SIP weeks in the to- tai for disability. it being found that seventy six weeks have already been paid to the claimant.

INTERESTING MEETING
OF AID SOCIETY

At the last meeting of the
Ladies Aid Of the NJ. f.. church
a large attendance at the home
of the Pastor testified 10 much
interest on the part Of the mem
bers. After opening prayer and
roll call the first new matter dis
cussed was the clean up week at
the church grounds. Mesdames
Peters. Peach. and Coleman were
appointed a committe on ways
and means. II is hoped the cit.
liens will follow the good exam
pie set by the Ladies Aid and
clean up where ever possible, as
our village surely needs some
polishing, NOV that the cruel
war is over"
The mater of renting out dish
es belonging to the Aid was de-
cided to include rental to every
church organization in Column
bus. This act is charming as in
dicating the desire Of the ladies
to work in harmony with their
sisters of other church member
ship.
The Courier representative in
vited the association 10 cooper
ate with the Woman's Guild and
the Courier in relief work for
the refugees and extended an in
vitation to meet 10 hear the Red
Cross nurse tell of the conditions
among the babies in camp. Be.
lieving that any work done for
the helpless is in obedience to
the Divine command, "In as
much as ye do il for these, the
least of your brethren. We do Il
for me-" The invitation to help
was unanimously accepted.
Mrs. Stewart was elected to
membership. As there is unus-
ual need for funds to carry on
the good work planned by the
aid II is desired that all members
come forward with dues when
circumstances permit, for il is
mainly these monthly dues that
furnish the society with the nee
essary cash.
Among those present were
the wife and daughter Of the
Pastor, Mrs, Yarbrough, Mrs.
Nelson, Mrs. Peters. Mrs. Her
bert, Mrs, Elliott, Mrs. Taylor.
Mrs. Peach. Mrs. Richie, Mrs.
Thomas. and Mrs. Cloppert as a
