LIGHTS AND SHADOWS
ON AN OHIO FARM

From Ohio comes story which
gives an insight into what modern
conveniences have come to mean in
the farm home.
A certain farm house in Mont
gomery County, Ohio, was almost
entirely destroyed by fire short
time ago. The house was of brick,
roomy and substantially built as
most old-fashioned farm houses are.
Thick, stout walls and good work.
manship are probably what saved
the house from being destroyed, but
as it was, nothing much but the
four walls were left standing. The
house is being remodled now with
some engagements and considerable
changes as to interior arrangement.
The owner is seeing to it in this re-
building that the new house will
have all modern conveniences.
Among such conveniences is, OF
course, electric service. The owner
had electricity in the old house, the
electric plant being installed in the
basement. In fire which destroyed
everything inside the walls, the
plant was of course ruined. Forum
ately there was a new garage on
the place a short distance from the
house and the family was forced to
move into this garage temporarily.
The first thing that the farmer did
on the morning after the fire was to
call up the man who had sold him
his electric plant and order another
one. Before night the new plant
was in and the family was enjoying
the convenience of electric light,
despite the fact that they had no
house to live in. The pumping sys-
TEN which supplied the old house
was located outside the house and
little distance from it and was
not destroyed by the fire so that it
was an easy matter to pipe the
water into the garage. This pump
ing system was also operated by
electricity so that as soon as the
plumbing was completed the family
was enjoying running water in the
garage just as they had in the
house.
This experience goes to show the
extent to which the farm family
becomes attached to modern con-
veniences. This particular family
has found that electric light and
running water have made life in
their present rather crowded quar-
tiers much more comfortable and it
is certain that they will make the
fullest possible use Of electricity in
their rev home when it is COM
pleted.

C. A. r. MEMORIAL SERVICES

The G. A. X. Memorial services
were held at Pisgah, four miles south
Of Greeneville. The Sunday school
Mr.. S. A. Bell, and
the soldier boys Of the Twenty-fourth
district, with a generous heart and a
willing mind, came to Greeneville on
the day before and said to the cid
veterans of the Civil War that they
would come in and take us all out to
Pisgah with our wives and friends
and bring us back in the afternoon
free Of charge. On Sunday morning
the boys were here at eight o'clock
with their cars, and went around to
the different homes and picked up
the old veterans, their wives and
friends, and left for Pisgah at eight
thirty. We arrived at Pisgah few
minutes after nine o'clock. The Sun
day school was opened with song
service and prayer by the superin-
tendent, lasting for about forty min
utes, after which the memorial SER
vices began.
The first song on the program was
Nearer, My God to Thee. A prayer
was offered by Rev. Burgess, after
which he also gave lecture to the
veterans on "The Patriotism of Amer
ica." The address was very much
enjoyed by the young folks as vel
as the veterans. A sang service by
the choir, assisted by the Greeneville
quartet was also very much enjoyed
The Superintendent then announced
that dinner would be served at the
springs. This proved to be a feature
of the days program, and was special
Iy enjoyed by those, who on account
of bad health are not privileged tC
attend many such occasions. The
fine spring furnished ample water
to quench the thirst and the out
standing boulders gave resting
place for all.
Our friends then cranked their cars
and we were driven back to our home!
accompanied by the hearty gooc
wishes of the good people of Pisgal
that we might enjoy many more oc
casions such as this.

neer Will Smith of the New York

Engineer Smiths suspicious were
aroused by the actions of three mer

its speed, especially near the bridge
over the Industrial canal. Smith
told the special agent of the road of
his suspicious, and detail of Off
GERS were put on the train.
When the train approached the

Two men were seen to leave the
train and hurry down the Chef Men
teur road.

said that two men had agreed with
him to rob the train at the crossing
of the Industrial canal. Here, he
told the police, they were to throw
off the mail bags and Blackwell was
to hide them and remain hidden un.
til the two men returned when they
would divide the loot
A search is being made for the
two men, who are heavily armed, ac.
cording to the captured youth.
