Modern Greek Language.

The modern Greek language is a
dialect Of the ancient Greeks, and the
literary language of today is con-
,tinuation Of the main literary dialect
Of ancient Greece, the Attic, as modi-
fed by passing through Byzantine.
The modern vernacular is sometimes
called Romaic. AT the present time
there Is tendency among the Greek
authors to return more closely to the
ancient form Of the language.

100000 JEWS YEARLY FOR
PALESTINE

SAN RENO, May 8.-The Allied
Supreme Peace Council, which met
at San Reno, has redeemed the Bal
four pledges made in his declaration
of November, 1917. 1t decreed on
April "a that Palestine shall become
the national home Of the Jews.
The dream of the Jews for almost
two thousand years has thus been
realized at last. For centuries the
Jewish people have prayed that Pal
estine may be restored to Israel.
About twenty-five years ago these
Jewish prayers and hopes were erys-
tallized into a concrete movement
under the brilliant leadership of DIR.
Theodore Herzl.
He became new Moses. He
aroused the national consciousness of
the Jews in exile and worked with in
domitable energy to secure for the
the Chosen People the land of their
fathers.

Abbott Mines to Resume Operation


After lying idle for months the
Abbott Mines resumed operations in
full force Tuesday. These mines are
located in close proximity to Beling-
ton, and the resumption of work
here will mean a renewed business
vigor in this city. These mine, are
in excellent condition and the output
of coal viii probably be increased far
above what it has even been before,
being owned and controlled by people
who are progressive and fair. The
increasing demand for West Va.

velopment of this section of w. Va.
and indications are for long era Of
prosperity.

FREDERICK BOOTH

Frederick Booth was born Aug. 13
1922, in what is now Barbour County,
West Virginia, died May 20, 1920 in
his 98th year; he was raised by his
uncle Frederick Hill and for years
lived in the "Old Stone House" where
his boyhood days were spent; he died
and was laid to rest within sight
of the remains of this old land mark
of history, he was pioneer of this
community, and the old grist mill and
up and down sawmil of water power
type of his younger days still stand on
Hunters Fork, though fast falling
to ruin meath the hand of time-it has
out lived its builder. He was an in
dustrious farmer and accumulated q
farm of over $50 acres. Until just
few months before his death he was
hale and hardy, read without glasses,
though having but one eye, talked
with his Instrumental capacity and
shaved himself with the old fashion
razor, and just contrary of scientific
principles he has been a user of to-
bacco for about 80 years of his life.
He was married to Emily daughter
of Andrew Schumacher to which union
was born, the following children:
Stephen, Andrew, John, William,
jeremiah, Burnett, Catherine, Am
anda, Lee Ida of whom four survives
him.
He was a member of the M. E.
Church, South, man of high christ
ian character, honest industrious
trusty and good neighbor. He was
/ probably Barbour County's oldest
man. His going out is land mark of
history gone and with him much local
and family history which will for
ever lie dormant.
