with music and general conversation.
While an enjoyable time was htfi,,
the occasion was tinged with sorrow
as this was the last meeting Of the

city having been dissolved and its
membership been absorbed into 9th

class was organized in January, 1914,
at the home of Mrs. Smith, and it
was fitting that its last meeting
should be held there. During the
past years it has been the custom
of the class to hold a social and
business meeting each month at the
home of one of its members and
these meetings have been source of
great pleasure and have been eagerly
looked forward to from month to

agent at Hartford, Ky, has the fol-
lowing to say about the unusual rest
room which has been developed for
the farmers wives when they are in
town:
I'VE have at last gotten our much
needed rest room completed. We have
for a regular matron one of the young
ladies' of the town who will welcome
any of the ladies that come in from
the country. The funds for this room
we're secured from the business men
of the town, the ladies and the county
court. As the Red Cross is using the

Under orders of Gov. Goodrich the
