Greene County Boy
Receives Citation

Private Samuel X. Broyles, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. |. E. Broyles, of Chuck
ey, received personal citation from
General Pershing for distinguished
and exceptional gallantry. The cita-
ton reads as follows:
"CITATION"-Private Samuel X
Broyles, NJ d., Office Division Sur
geon, 30th Division, for distinguished
and exceptional gallantry at Ypres,
Belgium, on the End and 3rd days Of
September, 1918, in the operations
of the American Expeditionary
Forces. In testimony thereof, and as
an expression of appreciation of his
valor, | award him this citation.
Awarded on the 9th day of
March, 1919.
JOHN j. PERSHING.
Commander-in-C Chief." !"
On the night of the End of Septem-
ber, at the time on duty with the
Sanitary detachment, 119th Infantry,
south of Ypres, Belgium, this soldier
boy went forward in the face of
heavy shell fire and rescued severe
ly wounded soldier, carrying him un-
aided to the Regimental Aid Post,
where he secured squad of stretch
er bearers. Owing to a certain con-
dition this man could not be evacu-
ated to the regular collecting point.
According Private Broyles placed the
wounded man and litter squad in
comparative safety, and himself set
out to secure an ambulance, which he
later returned with and the wounded
man was evacuated. This conducS
throughout was performed under
heavy shell fire and it is well tlesefv-
ing of unusual commentator.

DOG TAX FOR 1920
MUST Be paid soon

Only GO of the dogs of Madison
ciunty have had 1920 tax paid on
them as yet. A total of 3,0l0 dogs
were licensed in the county in
1919, and the owners will have to
begin to get their licenses very
soon.. A dispatch from Frank
fort says that County Tax Com
missioners in 1918 missed 56,38o
dogs, according to the report of
the Department of Agriculture.
The commissioners assessed 49,
'128 dogs, while licenses were paid
on 217,765, another o,30l were
impounded and S.452 killed for
failure of their owners to pay Ii
cense.
Receipts for licenses up to No
vember l, were $2l6,865.S0. Had
the state depended on the Tax
Commissioners reports at 81 a
head, as under the old law, the re-
ceipts, which go for payment OF
sheep killed by dogs, would have
been $179,12S, or $82,63o.S0 Ness
and 5o,3S9 stray dogs would have
been engaged in running up the
the sheep claims against the fund.
The value of the new law, in
preventing dogs running at large,
considering the increased price of
sheep, is shown by the fact that
1918 claims for sheep killed
amounted to $0S,S0l.S3, compared
to $35,1S5.77 for 1919, and $13,-
oOO.4S OF the 1919 fund goes tc
pay 1918 claims. Under the old
system, dog taxes in each county
were prorated among claimants
for sheep killed, and each year
took care of its own claims. I'm
der the new law the claims must
be paid in full, and they stand
against the fund from year to
year until paid.
In consequence the new law
will not have a fair try out until
all old claims arc paid and the
fund for the current year claims
against it. 1t is expected then
that the county school funds will
receive some benefit from it.

MYSTERY WHY RAY
DID NOT SEE train

The Lancaster Record says that
no one can imagine why Mr.. Vim.
Ray, who was killed by "Old
Henry last Monday, did not see
the approaching train, as there is
a good view down the track. No
blame whatever has been attach
ed to the train crew or Engineer
Tom Best, of this city, who runs
"Old Henry. The Record said:
Approaching the railroad as
was Mr.. Ray at the time of the
accident, one can see up the L. &
N. track for distance of one half
mile, and why the incoming
freight was not seen by him will
always remain mystery. The
collision was what might be call
ed head on" the car being a
total wreck, was carried dis
tance of 100 yards down the
track. Mr.. Solon Henry who was
standing in the cemetery at the
time, saw the car approaching the
crossings as the train was whist
ling, and was wondering if the
driver was noticing the onruSfiiing
train. In an instant the crash
came and Mr.. Henry was among
the first to reach the side of Mr..
Ray, who was carried down the
track with the car, and whose
mangled body was found on the
North side of the track. His left
leg was terribly crushed, several
ribs broken and he was bleeding
internally.
Mr.. Rufus Brakeman, of Kinks
vile, was ON the opposite side of
the track when the accident hap
pened, having stopped his ma
chine at the whistle of the train,
but with his eyes fixed on the
train did not see the approaching
car on the opposite side, until the
crash came. He rushed also to
the assistance Of the unfortunate
man and was the first to recog-
nize that it was Mr.. VIM. Ray.

FORMER RICHMOND BOY
WINS MORE: HONORS

Master Joe Lee Davis, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. r. Lee Davis, of
Lexington, and formerly of Rich
mond, continues to win laurels
upon his literary abilities. The
young man is a nephew of Mrs.
L. E. Lane, of Richmond, and
Mrs. Geoge holland of the county,
and many friends here are much
interested in his work. The Lex
ington Leader said the other day :
Master Joe Lee Davis, who
wrote the school garden army
song last year, has been invited
by National Director John l..
Randall, of the U. S. School Gar
den Army, to write another for
this year. In letter to Supt.
M. A. Cassiday, Director Randall
says: "In order that we may en-
liven our step and the welding of
the hoe next summer, it occurred
to me that the genius of your
school system might be willing to
furnish us with another school
garden song or to modify the one
furnished last year to meet pres
cnt-day needs. If Master Joe Lee
can furnish us with the words,
could not some one in your school
system all the music, so that we
might have a complete production
from the Lexington School Gar
den Army?"

WI. BYBEE SELLS
OUT AT ASHLAND

The following from the Ash
land Daily Independent, will be
read with interest by friends Of
Mr.. Bybee in Richmond. 1t says:
"a business deal of consider
able interest was closed last week
when DIR. Parsons bought the By
bee interest in the Bybee- Garden
store. Mr.. Bybee has been man.
aging this store for the past nine
years, and the business has grown
SO very rapidly that extra QUAR-
tiers had to be secured. 1t is
thought he will spend a few
months in California for his
health and it is not known what
he will engage in on his return.
Both he and Mrs. Bybee are held
in high esteem here and their
friends regret that he finds it best
to make the change"

while still another said that he
would have Baker at Brush Greek
All Of the deputies were attract
ed by the reward and seemed to
begin making some effort to land
the murderer.
Detective Herman was waiting
at Brush Creek for the prisoner
but again the Kentucky authori-
ties failed to turn up with the
prisoner and after one more effort
on Saturday he returned to this
city.
Herman said that as far as he
knows the guilty man is in hiding
in the hills near Jackson county
and the sheriff's office is in touch
with him. He stated that he tired
every way possible to get clue
as to where he was in hiding so
that he could go after him but it
was just like looking for a needle
III a hay stack.
81 had to walk most of the time
| was down there" said Herman,
"and you see an automobile about
every other day. / wouldn't give
one foot of this city for the entire
hills of Kentucky"
He further made the statement
that it was Bobtown and not
Bond where Nelson ]. Barger
was arrested. Bobtown is about
7 miles from Berea.
The Hamilton authorities are
very indignant over the actions of
the Kentucky authorities and say
that if there is any way to bring
them to justice they will see that
it is done. Hamilton police off
cials say that the sheriff and his
deputy in Jackson county, KY,
deliberately released from iai
man charged with murder. They
not only released him but requir
no bond.
That the sheriff and deputy are
closely related to Kimber Baker,
was undoubtedly the cause for
this action, but nevertheless their
action was criminal. They aided
and abetted in the escape of ;
criminal and therefore are guilty.

CHURCHES UNITE IN
union VESPER SERVICE

A beautiful Vesper service was
held at the First Christian church
Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock,
with all congregations of the city
uniting in the service. Owing to
the inclement weather the crowd
was small, but those who did at
tend felt well repaid for having
braved the weather. Rev. Tel
ford of the Presbyterian church,
gave a beautiful talk on Retro
spection," and in his remarks said
that the American people had
witnessed many disappointments
in the year that is closing, but
that he believed that the Lord had
a purpose in it all, and, thai the
outlook was bright for the New
Year.
DR.. Homer w. Carpenter spoke
on the "Year in Prospect" and in
his talk stated that he believed
the greatest work before the
American people would be COM
plcted during the year 1920, and
that the churches of the world
would play bigger part in shap-
ing the destiny of the nations
than in its past history.
Miss Josephine Carpenter sang
very beautifully "Face to Face"
and the music helped to make the
Vesper service very impressive
one.
