Oh For The Days Of'Thr;teea.

You can live them again through the genius of Booth Tarkington. writer of the most charming stories about kids that have ever been printed. "Thr Oriole" his lates in this line, will start as a serial in the Spectator with the issue of October 10th. In spite of the title it has nOth- ing to do with birds. It is about a couple of boys who acquired a printing press and started a neigeborhood newspaper under the name. You can imagine what followed. especially as the young editors Were under no re- strictions and were passionately devoted to telling all the news without any sOftening effects, The OriOle was a truthful publication too truthful for some residents of the community. This tale will furnish more enjoy ment than any thing you have read in years. Alone. it will be wOrta the price of a years sub- scriptiot of The Spectator.

Little Robie Fulmer Dead

Friends and acquaintances of the Fulmer family were shocked Sunday when the news went out that little Bobie, age six years. was dying. She had been to school only a few days befor her death and at first her illness did not appear to be serious. Though everything that loved ones could do was done for the little sufferer. she passed away about 10 D. m. Sunday night. She was the only child of J. C. Fulmer her mother having died when she was merely baby, her grand parents had cared for her practi- caliy all of her life and their af- lection had beco me deeply inter- twined in her little life an d though the years were of brief duration the ties could not have been stronger.
 Robie was a beautiful and lOv- able child. A favorite at school and with her little play mates everywhere.
 One of her little school friends said of her, She would not dis obey her grandmother at any time"
 Such a vacancy as she leaves never can be filled. Her sunny smiles. her gentle loving ways are forever withdrawn from her loved ones in this life. There is a lasting joy. when we recognize the voice of God speaking peace to the bereaved ones. Funeral services were he Id Monday afer- noon at 4 D. m. at the Methodist Church, Rev. w. J. Faust and J. K. Smith conducting the ser vice. Interment was in the Highland Cemetery.
