ENTERTAINMENT

The first public gathering of peo-
pie here since the CLOSED season"
began, about Dec. 20, was the occas-
ion of the entertainment at the Meth
odist church Wednesday, the pro-
gram having been arranged and par
TALLY prepared for Christmas event
The attendance was good, and the
privilege of meeting again in pub
lie assemblage contributed to the
pleasure of he occasion.
AS to the program, there was moth
ing to indicate that it had suffered
loss by being "salted down" or on
cold storage" for three weeks. The
music and recitations were good,
several of the song numbers being
specially bright and well-rendered.
Mr.. Geo. E. Day, a Y. NJ. c. A.
man, now in the county in the inter-
ests of the Armenian drive, was pres
ent and had place on the program.
After short talk by him, volun-
tary Offering was taken and the hand
some sum of $117.40 was counted
from the plates when the collectors
returned.
Mr. Day spoke more at. length at
the close of the entertainment, pre-
senting in an impressive way the
claims of our suffering fellow chris
tians in the Near East.
Throughout, the occasion was en-
joyable, many of those present going
to the front at the close Of the meet
ing to personally compliment the
young people and congratulate Mrs
Paul Slaven who drilled them and
had charge of the program.

A Grand Reunion

On Dec. 81, the children of the
late Allen Colaw held delightful
reunion at the old home place in
Crabbottom. They had sold the old
home, and were to give possession on
Jan 1, 1919, so they decided to cele-
brate the last day of-191S, and the
last day that they knew they could
ever call it their home, as it once
was. They prepared a nice dinner,
and all met there together and call
ed back the memories of their child
hood days which they loved so much,
and where they could bring to their
mind the very spots they had so oft
en- played on when they were little
tots, in their bare feet, in Springtime
on the green grass, and waded up
and down the little stream of water
that flows so-near the house with
little pant aloons and skirts tucked
up so they could enjoy the fun that
Si4Aoi Gil 2O iicSh 1OFC, etllu "uSiC
they imagined they could see dear
old Father and Mother.
All the children were present ex-
cept two, Mrs. Dolly Winner, of New
York, and Freemout Colaw. There
were several grand children present.
Those who were guests outside the
family were: o. Ps Chew Mr. and Mrs
Walter Newman, e. X. Rexrode, ].
B. Hidy, Robert Winner, Norval High
and his brother James from Beatris
Neb.
About o'clock all were invited
to the dining room and there found
the long table weighted down with
everything that hungry folks would
wish to see. We certainly did
make the nice fat pig, that Mr.. 'Buz'
Colaw had prepared live hard for a
while, and many other good things,
including nice cakes, peaches and
cream pies.
In the evening, before they babe
farewell to their old home, we were
all called to the front of the house
by Miss Kate Hidy,a placed in
position, where she snapped the ko-
dak on us. oae Present

AGED MAN DIES.

The venerable Jacob Winner, a
well-known farmer living near
Forks of Waters died Tuesday morn
ing. He, had been in feeble health
for long time, being partially par
alyzed and almost helpless. His
age is not known-but he was one of
the oldest men of that section and in
his death the border of the two Vir-
ginias loses a veritable landmark.
Little is known to the writer of his
birth or parentage, but he was pro-
badly a native of West Virginia.
Much of his life, however, has been
spent in this county, and he owned
extensive and valuable real estate in
both Pendleton and Highland. He
is survived by his wife and several
children.
Mr.. Winner, while giving close at
tention to farming and stock rails
ing, was alsoE close observer Of
governmental affairs, keeping him
self well informed, and was quick to
condem that which he regarded as
wrong or commend that which he
conceived to be right.

Fl. H. TERRY.

In the death Of Howard II. Terry
Highland lost one Of her substantial
and influential citizens. His friends
and acquaintance who were aware
of his true condition for week or
more were not surprised when death
was announced on Sunday morning,
he having been in. an unconscious
statef or many hours.
AS referred to in the last two is
sues of the Recorder, Mr.. Terry's ill
ness was due to a carbuncle on his
neck and head, which developed
three weeks ago. but death was sup
posed to be due to complications that
arose during the past week or ten
days.
H. H. Terry was the son and only
child of the late James NJ. Terry and
was born 60 years ago on Jackson's
River where he resided during his
entire life. His wife, who was Mrs.
Sallie Swadley, survives him with
seven children: Frank, Julian, Hen
kle and Carl-four sons Misses
Hazel, Elsie, and Edna-three daugh
Tiers. He also has several half
| brothers and sisters.
| Mr.. Terry was a farmer and stock
grower and succeeded well in life.
Left a handsome competence, he ad-
| ded to it year by year, until, by
thrift and energy, he became one of
the largest landowners in the coun-
ty.
In 1910 he received the appoint
ment of ennumerator and took the
census in Monterey district. For a
number of years he was director in
the First National Bank, in-whfch
capacity his business efficiency was
recognized by his fellow officers.
In private life he was known as a
man of strong convictions but one
who was not forgetful or negligent
of the needy who came his way. He
was kind husband and affectionate
father, and showed deep concern for
the welfare and happiness of his
children.
His funeral took place Monday af-
ternoon at o'clock and was largely
attended Among the floral designs
was one from The First National
Bank, and several Of the officers of
the bank were in attendance.
The services were in charge of his
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Fast, of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, assisted by
Revs. J. C. Thrasher, N. A. Parker,
and other resident ministers.
