special work just at this time in their
abstract department. Mr.. Barnard
and his excellent wife have made
many friends in Grenada and Gre
NADIA county since they anne to Gre
NADIA sever years ago. and while The
Sentinel wishes for Mr.. Barnard that
which will bring him the greatest re-
ward in his profession as 4 lawyer,
yet it INDUCES the hope that some
thing may turn up that promises him
more for the future and that viii
make certain that Grenada shall
continue to claim him as one of hei
citizens. He is not only a good law.

the honor that has been conferred up
on their son, Wilmer, by his recent
appointment to the important post Of
assistant paymaster in the Navy, q
place he won after the very keenest
competition in al examination Of a
class of several hundred. This is in
deed a compliment to Mr.. Thomas for
one of his year and Of his short ex-
%perience in the Navy He reached his
twenty first birthday on independence

out a~uspiciously on his career as a
man. However, his past record war
rants the conclusion that he will meet
any duty which he undertakes in a
most highly satisfactory manner He
only recently graduated from Prince
ton University, where he was made
president Of his class and also presi-
dent of his club, and, when it is con
sidered that these honors came to him
where there are 1000 students, their
significance will be all the better IN

Previous to his being named assist
ant paymaster, Mr.. Thomas was an
Ensign in the Navy and had a class of
more than one hundred under his care
and direction. He has the right mettle
and has had that keenness of intellect
and proper realization Of surround.

THE FARMERS SAY
TOO MUCH RAIN,

The drouth of several weeks was
broken by several good showers more
than a week ago but last Saturday
night it begun to rain and continued
practically all day Sunday and even
through Monday. At times the down
pour was terrific. Naturally the
creeks and branches are full and the
Yalobusha river is rising. So far
there has been no serious damage to
crops but it is feared that if the
rain continues for anything like q
week that the boil weevil will multi
ply and replinish as the sand upon
the sea-shore.

BUSINESS MEN BUY SIGN.
Now Fear They Paid Too Much For
Electrical Invitation to Church.


Special to Times Republican.
Eagle Grove. Jan. S.-Eagle Grove is
"all torn up today over the erection of
an electrical sign. Two or three men
came into the town Friday. secured the
influence Of some of the local minis
tiers, and then went to the business
men and secured signatures to an
agreement to have their names upon
this sign. The sign in question is to
signal to all of the world the good ad-
vice, 60 to Church. and it is also to
bear. in smaller letters. the names of
those who contribute to the mainten-
ance of the sign.
In the midst Of the canvass of our
business men. copy of the Leon Re-
porter came to town to the address of
a regular subscriber, telling of the in
Stallation of a similar sign there. and
then the waters were troubled. OF
course there are two sides to the queS-
ton Of the advertising value of Il sign,
but the question now confronting the
Eagle Grove men who contributed. is
whether or not they are getting their
moneys worth. or whether they arc
paying too much for what they are get
ting. This sign in question, which,
when erected. is hoped to do what the
many church bells have thus far failed
to do Gnduce men to go to ChurCh) is
said to cost each business firm So
totaD for period Of three years. Fiji
teen business firms signed up to con-
tribute, which makes Il total contribu-
on to the firm erecting the illumination
of $50. OF course this is not all profit
for there is some expense for electric
