TO ORGANIZE
HOME GUARDS
Men of City Will Be Given 0ppor-
tunity to Receive Drilling
and Instructions.
Give Your Home County Credit for Your Enlistment

Mt. Sterling will not be without
military protection if the plans of
number Of young men in this
rity materialize. Tt is their inten-
ton to organize a Business Mems
Training Corps. The object is
twofold, to afford military training
to men Who, If needed later, can
enlist to serve their country or will
be available in case the local auth
critics need their services.
No one is under any obligation
to join the regular army or will any
severe restrictions Of any kind be
imposed. 1t is the object of those
who have charge of the movement
to simply get all the men available
to take military training. Sergeant
McQueeney, retired army officer I;
Mr.. Robert Nelson, graduate Of
X. M. l., and Mr.. W. ii. Strossman,
Jr., who has taken special mill
tary' course and, has been training
the High School boys for some time,
will have charge Of the drilling
and instructing of those who join.
A meeting will be held at the Court
house in this city Wednesday night
beginning at 1880 and everybody
is invited to be present. 1t is not
the intention or desire of those in
charge of this movement to inter
fere with the recruiting of the
regular United States Army. Quite
a number of men have already sig
nifcd their intention of joining.

FISCAL COURT PROCEEDINGS

At an adjourned meeting of the
Montgomery Fiscal Court, held Sat-
urday, contract was let to Messrs.
w. r. Upton and G. M. McAlister
for the crushing of stone to be used
in the work on the Paris and Levee
turnpikes, with state-aid, at the
price of ninety-fve cents a ton and
as these gentlemen have but one
crusher outfit, the court ordered
work done on the Levee pike first,
but both pixies are to be improved
this year as far as the state-aid
money will go.
The County Road Engineer, Mr..
w. F. Horton, was ordered to ma
cadamize about $500 feet beyond
Jeffersonville, at what is known as
the Pratt hill, using as far as it will
go, the subscription list filed by cit
liens living in the neighborhOod.
The sum of $500 was appro-
priated on the Hinkston pike and
five cars of crushed stone each al
loted to the Grassy Lick pike, the
Spencer pike and the Prewitt and
Thomson Station pike, the citizens
living on same agreeing to do the
hauling from the cars without cost
to the county; the Improvement of
the Maysville pike from Judy to
the Bath county line was referred
to the County Road Engineer.
The sum of $500 per annum was
appropriated to assist the Health
and Welfare League, in the support
of a resident nurse.

the Cynthiana High School, held
Saturday, Prof. r. l. Cord, the
present Principal, was reelected for
term of three years and his conf
pensation fixed at $2,250.00 a year,
Prof. Cord, though a very young
man, has made rapid strides in his
chosen profession and is now re-
garded as one of the leading edu-
Gators in the State. His many
friends here, where he formerly
lived, will be glad to know of his
success and will watch his career
with interest.

= CHURCH ENTERTAINMENT

The usual Easter program, rem
dered by the Mission Band of the
Christian church last Sunday night
attracted a crowd that filed the
building in spite of the inclement
weather. A short missionary play,
showing some of the objects and
work of the Mission Band was pre-
scented entitled dorothy Indiffer-
ence's Dream" in which each child
took part with great credit. Vocal
solos by Misses Frances Kennedy,
Alma Cox and Elizabeth Strossman
and a violin solo by Evelyn Prewitt
are deserving of special mention,
The church was -attractively deco
rated with flags, ferns and flowers,
and with the bright faces of the
children made a beautiful picture.
Much credit is due Mrs. George r.
Snyder, who is the leader of the
Mission Band, and her capable as
sistants, Miss Eliza Harris and Mrs.
William Oldham, for the success of
the evenings entertainment.
