GRADUATION NIGHT.

The final exercises of Commence
ment week, and the formal closing
of the school year at Hartford Col
lege, we're held at the Methodist
church Friday night. The house was
packed to capacity, and the evening
was full of interest for the big audi
ence.
There were fourteen graduates
seated on the stage, and it was a
bunch of fine young men and women
sitting with pleased expectancy OF
reception of diplomas.
The exercises opened with invo-
cation by Rev. A. d. Litchfield. Oscar
Bennett, class historian, delivered an
address entitled THE Present Day
Aims of the High School," The adj
dress was we'll prepared, and was de-
livered in an instructive and pleasing
manner.
Winnie Dean Mosley, valedictorian
of the class, had chosen for her sub
ject THE Blessings of War" In her
delivery Miss Mosley displayed a
mastery of elocution that made a
deep impression on the big audience
present, and it gave her the closest
attention. The young lady's fine con-
troll of voice and GESTURE indicated
that training and attention might
eventually fit her for work on the
Lyceum platform.
Prof. Henry Leach in neat little
speech presented the scholarship
medals to Misses Mary Lindley and
Ella Henry. The presentation of
two scholarship medals was an I'M
usual event, made necessary by the
fact that the examination papers of
both of the young ladies were perfect
in every detail.
Prof. Bruner reviewed the school
work of the year, and gave the audi
ence an interesting account of the
work accomplished by the pupils.
Prof. Bruner gave a we'll merited
mention to the boys and girls who
had unselfishly devoted much time
to the Red Cross work and to beauti-
flying the school grounds.
]. H. Risley, Superintendent of the
Owensboro City schools, delivered the
Commencement address, and closed
the program.

STAMP YOUR DEEDS.

Greensboro, Ky, May 16.-We
would call special attention to the
fact that all deeds made on or since
December /. 1917, should be stamp
ed for their full value, and not their
consideration. Grantor should stamp
the deeds, and where notes are ex-
ecuted in payment, grantee should
stamp the notes. The law Is very
plain. and is as follows:
That whoever makes, signs OF ac-
cepts or causes to be made, signed or
accepted any instrument. document
or paper of any kind or description
whatsoever, without full amount of
tax thereon being fully paid is guilty
OF a misdemeanor and upon convic-
ton thereof, in Federal Court. shall
pay fine of 500 for each offense."
This Office has no desire to prose-
cute persons who have violated the
Statutes through misunderstanding of
the law. ] will be in Hartford June
], 1918, at the County Court Clerks
office and you are directed to bring
your deed to that alice on the date
indicated in order that IL may be
properly stamped in my presence.
The title to this property is not good
unless it be properly stamped and
unless you have this done at once, IL
will be necessary to take other steps
to see that the law has been properly
complied with. Respectfully,
John T. May.
Deputy Collector.

SUES COUNTY.

Miss Bette Brown, who conducts
a boarding house at Rockport, has
filed suit against the county for 500
damages growing out of the small
pox epidemic of last winter. Miss
Brown claims that on account of one
of her boarders, who had smallpox
at her house, being quarantined by
county health authorities she was
damaged in that sum. Miss Brown
filed a claim with the fiscal court and
was allowed $40, but says the amount
was not adequate to her loss.

SULPHUR SPRINGS.

The continued rains of the past
ten days have gotten the farmers
behind with their crops, and some
anxiety is being felt that a full crop
may not be planted Hill land has
washed badly and will cause much
replanting.
Some tobacco has been set, but on
account of excessive rains much of
the tobacco land has not been prepar-
ed, and plants are spelling on the
beds.
Wheat, oats and grass are growing
fine, and prospects for these crops
were never better at this time of the
season. Pastures are good and stock
putting on flesh, but cattle and hogs
are scarce. Stock hogs are selling
readily at rs cents pound
Much tobacco has recently been
delivered at Greensboro, and sold at
satisfactory prices. Most farmers are
making a big effort for tobacco crop
this season.
Some farmers out on Halls creek
are getting up a muss about drainage
and may get into court. While ! am
not a lawyer, nor the son Of one, ]
am going to take the liberty of saying
they can settle their differences more
satisfactory out Of court than in it,
and very, very much cheaper. IL
they are not careful they will get
into something that may leave a
stencil in the nostrils Of their chill
dren and grandchildren when they
are called upon to pay debt inherit
ed from their forefathers, after this
generation has passed away. Be care
full boys.
Editors note-Shaw, shaw, Albert.
Rub that moss off your back and
join the fellows in draining those
Halls creek swamps. 1t will be the
best investment you ever made in
your life.)
1t was reported that the editor of
the Hartford Republican was seen out
in his old haunts one day last week,
with a pole in one hand and min
now bucket in the other, his trousers
what little there was of them rolled
Up to his knees, and swearing tha.
law or no law he was going to have
a mess of fish.
The Hartford republican. (Hartford, Ky.) 18??-1926, 1918-05-24

One of Ohio county's road troubles
is in the want of proper width. Where
the road is narrow and all vehicles
must use single track the result in
the rainy season is apparent. 1t does
not require a great deal of work to
widen the narrow points in the roads.
It. L. Lloyd, of Narrows, was made
overseer of the Narrows and Dundee
road, a few years ago, and he took
tape line on the road and widened
the high way out to the full thirty
feet. Mr.. Loyd's example should be
followed by the other overseers of the
county.
