YOUNG RUPE KILLS
 TWO BIG WILD CATS

Jim Rupe, of Maine, was in town Friday with two big cat skins which his 15-year-old grandson, Raymond who lives with Jim and goes to the Williams school, had shot last week, four miles southwest of the Rupe ranch and near Lou Charlebois' sheep ranch, at the foot of the Sitgreaves mountains.
 Raymond got the first one through the head at 75 yards. The other ran and he shot it in the shoulder; then, while the cat was trying to get to him, he gave it another shot in the neck, laying it out. The larger skin meas ured 6 feet, the other slightly less.
 Mir. Rupe brought the skins in to see whether there is any bounty. There is none, but it is likely the sheepmen, perhaps through their as- sociation, will reward the boy, as these animals likely have done an immense amount of damage and would have done more had they not been killed.
 Young Rupe gets his skill with a rifle partly by heredity, as Grand-dad Jim is a crack shot, and partly from the latter's coaching.

sided. A goodly number were pres

The committee on the revision Of

report was adopted. The principal
changes made in the old constitution
were: the organization is now to be
called "The Community League of
Berea"; and the provision for "Com-
munity Council; and reducing the
number Of vice presidents to one.
The Community Council will be
made up of representatives from the
several organizations of the village,
including the churches, schools, clubs,
etc. This will be purely an advisory
committee, and is expected to recon-
mend the plans for the activities of
the League. A committee headed by
Prof. Dix was appointed to invite
representatives from the several or
CARNATIONS and to instruct them in
the purpose and duties of the coun-
Gil.
A committee was appointed 70

elected. Their nominations will be
made at the next meeting. J. o.

the League.

Tuesday evening of each month at

terested in the welfare and develop
ment Of Berea is eligible to member
ship in the League, ii is urged that
all such be present at this meeting.

THE ENCHANTING HILLS


(Tune: Song Of victory"-0berIin)
The hills stand high in the deep blue
sky
While the suns bright beams are
glowing;
Out In the mountains
Leap forth the fountains,
Down thru the valleys flowing.
The flowers and trees in the gentle
breeze
Sing an anthem sweet and long
While we roam the meadows
And thru the shadowds
OF the Beautiful hills Of Berea.
We wade the rills in the cool green
hills,
And we know no hours Of sad
ness;
Scenes Of our childhood
Loved in the wildwood
Fill all our hearts with gladness
The golden sun when his work Is
done
Floods the sky with golden light,
And heavens splendor
Is soft and tender
On the beautiful hills Of Berea.
