for all these great monuments to

from the Home Town People and the
Home Town Merchants,
Now. who at home pays the great

Sunday morning I was assigned to in
terview him. 1t was the last inter-
view that any newspaper man had
with the ex-president.
He stood in the parlor of his suite,
with a number Of flags of the country
draped behind him as a background.
He was dressed in the typical frock
coat of the statesman, with a white
tie. He had quarreled with General
Grant. who at that time was president,
and there was great interest to learn
his attitude Z shall never forget the
manner in which he struck a pose in
the traditional attitude of Henry Clay
and said, with his deep, stentorian
voice:

0Dcial paper Of Marshall County.

It is the duty of all property owners,
not only those who live in the country,
butalso those who reside in the towns,
to cut and destroy all noxious weeds
growing on their premises and along
the sides of streets and roads adjoin-
ing their property. There is state
law requiring property owners to cut
all noxious weeds, but apparently many
are not aware of its existence as in
many places weeds are allowed to grow
unchecked, spreading their seed broad
cast and multiplying rapidly. 1t should
not be necessary to suggest the import
ance of complying with the state weed
law, as civic pride should prompt each
individual to keep his property clear
of unsightly weeds. Not only do the
weeds detract from the appearance of
the community, but if left standing by
the roadsides, cause snow drift and
blockade the roads durin9afhe winter
months. Fight the weedSfow.
