ASSOCIATION


The annual session OF the Bracken
Association of Baptists Of which the
local church is member, was held
Wednesday and Thursday Of this
week with the First baptist church
of Mt. Sterling In their beautiful new
church house.
Probably because OF the fact that
Mt. Sterling Is qupite distance from
the majority of the churches in the
association, the attendance was moi
as good as usual, although the re.
ports of the condition Of the thirty
Baptist churches In this section who
comprise the association showed con.
siderable progress during the pas
year with net increase of more thar
$50 members In the twelve months.
Mr.. C. N. Bolingerf of this city
was honored by being elected Mod
orator of the body for the thirteenth
consecutive year, while Prof. W. J
Caplinger was chosen clerk and Mr.
John Owens, Of Germantown, was re
elected treasurer
The next session of the association
will likely be held at Glen SPRING
Baptist College in Lewis county, how
ever, this was not definitely decided
and was left in the hands of the Exc
cutive Mission Board which will hol
its next session in this city on tn
first Tuesday in September.

GOOD CITY INVESTMENT

Editor Public Ledger:
In the columns Of your colleague
the Public Ledger of Philadelphia,
appears the following on a subject Of
vital interest to Maysville at this
time. viz:
One of Philadelphia's most gifted
and accurate writer's "Girard," -
says:
"The two best and biggest things
Philadelphia ever did for itself was
to purchase Fairmont Park and to
build its filtrationworks. One saves
life by giving thousands good fresh
air. The other saves life by giving
everybody clean water.
"A hundred millions couldn't buy
our park. An equal amount couldn't
buy from us our purified water, pro-
vided We could get no other supply.
Official figures show that last year
only one person died of typhoid fever
where exactly ten died of that dis
ease ten years ago. Keeping 1,100
persons from the grave in year be-
sides preventing ten times that many
cases of illness from typhoid is big
work. But even that is only part of
the sequel to pure water"
Let every thinking citizen take
notice.
Respectfully,
JOHN BARBOUR.

Getting Evidence Against Those
Who Failed TO Register er-First

Posted Next Monday.

Mr.. Sherman Arm, chairman Of the
Mason Exemption Board, was ex-
tremely busy at the County Clerks
ONCE yesterday getting evidence
against those between the ages OF 81
and 81 who failed to register on June
8. With the aid of school census rec
ords, registration books. marriage IL
cense books and other records he has
already discovered quite few who
are thought to be slackers. Most OF
these live In the county. After a
thorough investigation of 'ach case,
II II Is found that the party Is within
the proper age limit, he will be or
dered to report for examination and
will take the place Of some one re-
jected at the top Of the list. 1t Is the
duty of all loyal Americans at this
thine to report any cases where 1t
appears that young men have sought
to evade army service by falling to
register.
While Mr.. Arm was busy at the
Courthouse the two other members OF
the Board were busy at the Govern
ment building finishing the lists Of
those who will have to report for ex-
animation on the first call. The first
list will probably be posted in the
Government building on next Mon
day. This will be composed Of the
first eighty members drawn. At the
same time the numbers are posted
cards will be sent to the young men
to report for examination within five
days. Additional numbers will be
posted and cards sent out every few
days until Mason county's quota OF
120 has been filled.
It was the intention Of the Ex'
emption Board to post the numbers
today but on account Of the fact that
no franked envelopes to be used In
mailing the cards had been received
1t was. thought best to await their ar
rival, 80 that the cards could be sent
