Beautiful Valley

Beautiful, OH beautiful valley
or the clear and swift Marrowbone,
Among thy gifts OF nature
A countess would love to roam.
Up from this beautiful valley
A lofty mountain rises;
Its rugged cliffs and tree-tops
Seeming to meet the skies.>
Its rocks are covered with MOSES.
And from the earth grow ferns
Every traveller in this valley
A lesson of nature learns.
At the foot of this lofty mountain
Is where lonely Selwyn lies;
Huge walls and rough old towers
Seeming to meet the skies.
And so 1t dwelt in this valley
More peaceful year by year.
When suddenly strange protents
or some great dread seemed near.
Even this beautiful scenery
And gifts of nature dear
Never could drive from this very soul
A feeling of awful fear.
Far from her hcme and kindred
A happy maid had fled
To serve in Selwyn. cottage
And toll for daily bread.
She loved the beautiful valley.
Swift water that dashed away.
After in her lonely cottage
Where she busily spent the day.
She served kind and gentle as master,
Nor asked for rest or change;
Her friends to be all new ones.
Their speech seemed to her very
strange.
And sitting at the evening fireside
She listened to stories of old
OF ghosts and haunts of Selwyn
Till the blood within her ran cold.
Before her eyes came visions,
With trembling haste she fled;
In her heart came spookish fear
AS she silently went to bed.
She lies near her little window
And gazes on the moon so dim;
Then swooning away in slumber
She dreams of her home again.

OBITUARY
Queens Ridge. w. Va

Queens Ridge. w. Va.
loving father and a kind husband,
who spent the early part OF his life in
Lawrence county and had many friends
and relatives there, who will be inter-
ested in the following, was Pharmer
Wiley. age 62 years His death came
so suddenly 1t was a great shock to
his many friends. He had lived here
for several years. having moved from
Lawrence county. KY to Wayne
county. w. Va.
Bro. Wiley was loved by all who
knew him. His life was of purity and
that we all should follow. He never
was a wicked man, always seemed to
be ever ready to do what was right
and TO abstain from evil. He was
member OF the Baptist church and had
lived a constant christian for 40 years.
He always met you with smile and
always had kind word for every one.
To meet him was never to forget him
but to love him.
He was married to Emezeta Pack,
daughter OF Sam Pack. and to this
union were born seven children, four
sons. and three daughters. All the
children were present ut the death of
their father except the baby boy Mil
ton AS he was a travelling man they
couldn't get him located. The children
prgsent were Mrs. James Karney. Of
J Queens Ridge. Mrs. Elem Wellman, of
Lookout. KY. Mrs. Jno. Nelson. John
! Wiley, S. +. Wiley and T. b. Wiley of
4 Huntington, w. Va. This family is 30
good and kind TO each other that their
home was almost paradise Of love
and kindness.
1 This dear father was sick eleven
days with heart trouble. Everything
that willing hearts and kind hands
could do was done to save him, but
the end came. God, who does all things
well, called him home to that celestial
city where all the righteous dwell. HIS
dear wife and loving children stood
over him day and night until the end.
He told them in his last hours not to
grieve for him for he was going home
TO glory. He exhorted them all to live
for heaven which he felt sure they were
doing. we who knew. and loved this
dear father do not look en- him as be-
ing dead but only fallen asleep in
sweet Jesus and when the great day OF
deliverance comes we expect to meet
him with the great host OF angels that
Christ will bring with him to claim
his own.
Brother Wiley lived in Mingo county
when he died but he told them before
he died he wanted TO be brought back
I TO Wayne county for burial.
| Our sympathy is with the bereaved
family His body was laid to rest in
the Mountain Home cemetery.

This paper is publishing some
articles on the subject of irrigation
in the upper Snake river valley, as
it Is proposed to conduct it by devel-
oping the great natural reservoir
sites to store the waters that are
now running to waste. It is proposed
to secure number of great govern
ment loans to finance the project of
putting the wasting floods on the
rich arid lands and bring the landless
man to the manless land.
Twenty-one newspapers in the up
per Snake river valley are co-operat-
ing in a campaign of education to
show congress and the public the
possibilities thru development of the
Snake river plains and if each
reader Of all these newspapers will
remail their papers to their friends
after reading and otherwise try as
hard as the editors do to spread the
light and the truth and to unfold
the mysteries Of the great natural
resources and how to combine them,
1t will do more good than all the
other publicity the valley has ever
had. tt.

we were checked off on a sheet of
paper containing all our names, and
the long sheet we carried was marked
as to whether we needed new shoes
or not. The next door we went thru
led us unto an airy long part of the

By Sgt. f. G. Kutnewsky

January IL, 1919.
Here l am still. Been loafing an
other week. Went thru the mill
yesterday and awaiting an order to
board ship any hour. Still there is
nothing more definite about our
future than when last wrote. We
see with great joy that American
men of influence are thinking about
us over here. Every time we read
of those inquiries rung out before the
good old public we feel that we are
being remembered, and that we shall
be gotten home as soon as conditions
permit We hold meetings of graft
fication. One comes by feeling Of
loneliness in these isolation camps
and it seems an easy thing to be en-
tirely forgotten. As l predicted in
my last letter, was paid soon after
and spent the money seeing BOr-
deaux, and now I'm ready for home.
I want to get out of the army and
into the business again.
Yesterday they put us thru the
mill. The first time we were about
to embark" you know we got out
Of going thru the mill because some
of the boys had bought expensive
uniforms, and we were just ignorant
enough to procedure to believe that
we would have to throw away every
thing. But the necessary thing is
to get permission to take barrack
bags and then one can wear any
thing the government desires. We
went thru the mill, and I'll tell you
more about it than I did before. I
only knew in general way what was
done. I now know in a detailed
way, from hot shower bath to bar
Der shop.
First we went to the salvage heap
and threw away our shelter halves,
belts, caps ,leggings, coats, under
wear, pegs, pole, rope, canteen cover
and all such outer equipment.
Then we stopped thru the mud to
the entrance to the mill, after Ileav-
ing our valuables with friends at the
office. We were given long sheets
of paper with list Of equipment on
them, and small red cross bag for
carrying what was in our pockets.
From that moment on we were
herded along like bunch of sheep.
We passed in the first section of the
building row of typists, who made
