Harold Kidder is doing his bit' on
farm near Huntley. ,r~ as
Little Marion Kotthoff is spending
week and maybe more with her
home on the farm nicely recovered
from her recent illness.
The thunder storm that passed over
this vicinity caused bit of excite
ment on Lawn Grove Farm, A tree
near the barn was struck by bolt,
peeling on one side and tossing piece
the length of the trunk quite dis
tance away. Splinters were thrown
sixty five feet and a string of body
wood was hung on fence twenty-five
or more feet away.
C.. Ballard has recently bought a
new car.
Miss Susan Sibert is nursing her
niece, Mrs. Ben keenan,, during her

At a family reunion of the family
of w. Watts, Sr., Mr.. James F. Watts
was the honor guest. Four brothers
and their families were present. Also
Mrs. Fay Watts and family and Frank
Brooks and wife, who are recently
acquired relatives. The reunion was
held at the home of w. Watts, Jr.,

an attack of the measles, seems to

strong and well again.
Mr.. and Mrs. Joe Kern who re-
moved from here to Madison Lake last

The funeral of Mr.. S. F. keenan, was

his this to say about him. He was a
imam of very strong friendships, if a
imam or woman was in trouble, or was
Ialone, that was enough to attract him,
and his boyhood chums he never for
got. Many times he spoke of different
ones and wished to see them once
lagain. These verses read many years
Iago and they reminded me so of him
that kept them:
Let me live in house by the side of
the road,
| Where the race of men go by.
The men who are good, and the men
who are bad, as good and as

The men who press on with the

Are a part of an infinite plan,

gun the day we took the Java-asked
about dear old David Porter, as he
called him. Then he settled down
more quietly, and very happily, to hear
me tell in an hour the history of fifty
years.
"How l wished it had been some
body who knew something! But l
did as well as could. l told him OF
the English war. told him about Full
ton and the steamboat beginning. l
told him about old Scott and Jackson !;
told him all l could think about the
Mississippi, and New Orleans. and
Texas, and his own old Kentucky.
And do you know he asked who was
in command of the Legion OF the
West? l told him it was very gal
liant officer named Grant. and that by
our last news, he was about to estab~
fish his headquarters at Vicksburg.
Then, Where was Vicksburg! l
worked that out on the map; it was
about a hundred miles, more or less,
above his old Fort Adams; and l
thought Fort Adams must be ruin
now. 1T must be at old Vick's plan

country and its prosperity.
Sand he drank it in, and enjoyed it
as l cannot tell you. He grew more
and more silent, yet l never thought
he was tired or faint. ! gave him q
glass of water, but he just wet his lips,
and told me not to go away. Then he
asked me to bring the Presbyterian
Book of Public Prayer which lay
there, and said, with smile, that it
would open at the right place-and so
It did. There was his double red
mark down the page; / knelt down
and read, and he repeated with me-
For ourselves and our country, y graz
.ious God, we thank thee, that, not
outstanding our manifold transgres-
sions of thy holy laws, thou hast con-
.inued to US thy marvellous kindness
and so to the end of that ttanksgsv-
/ ng. Then he turned to the end OF
the same book, and read the words
more familiar to me: Most heartily
we beseech thee with thy favor to be-
hold and bless thy servant, the presi-1
dent Of the United States, and all
others in authority'-and the rest OF
the Episcopal collect. 'DanfOrth,'
said he, I have repeated those prayers
night and morning. it is now fifty-five
years And then he said he would
go to sleep. He bent me down over
him and kissed me; and he said,
Look in my Bible, Danforth, when I
am gone And I went away.
'But bad no thought 1t was the
end. thought he was tired and
would sleep. knew he was happy,
and l wanted him to be alone.
"But in an hour, when the doctor
went in gently, ne found Nolan had
breathed his life away with smile.
He had something pressed close to
his lips. 1t was his fathers badge OF
the Order of Cincinnati.
1--WE looked in his Bible, and there
was a slip Of paper, at the place
where he had marked the text
"'They desire country, even q
heavenly: wherefore God is not
ashamed to be called their God: for
he hath prepared for them a city,
"On this slip of paper he had writ
ten:
"'Bury me in the sea; it has been
| my home, and love it. But will not
someone set up stone for my mem
DRY at Fort Adams or at Orleans, t-Ar

world than ever was Germany. Its foes would be divided by their failure. Italy, France and Great Britain would be laying the blame for the disaster each on the shoulders of the other; Russia, torn by anarchy, would be Germany's vassal. The war mas cost Germany far less than her opponents, partly because She prepared for it when costs were low, partly because her boundaries have remained prac- tically inviolate; she owes no money except to her own people. The Bri- tish mercantile marine has suffered terrible losses; the new empire of Central Europe, armed with the sub marine, would threaten to control not merely the land but the seas as well. Dominating Europe, always seeking new markets, how long would it be before the triumphant Pan-Germans reached across the Atlantic for the rich and unexploited territories of the Americas? And would they pay more attention to the Monroe Doctrine than they did to their own promise to re- spect Belgian. neutrality?
 ''But if we fail to win this war there win be another; and a worse consequence. For our failure will signify the triumph of brute force as opposed to justice. The authorities which in cold blood commanded the devastation of France and Belgium, the torture of children, the rape of women, the murder of Red Cross nurses. will have gone unpunished.
