BIRTHDAY SURPRISE PARTY

Last Friday evening, Jan. Il, a
( birthday surprise party was given in
honor OF Misses Florence Wolf, Sadie
Anderson Minnie Wright and NJ c..
Leibfarth, at the home Of Mr. and Mrs
a. Wolf The party met at the parson-
age of the Baptist church and from
there went to the Wolf home in body.
The rooms were cleverly decorated
which produced a beautiful effect.
Cakes were made for each of the
honored guests and candles placed on
them to designate their age. Many
interesting games were played during
the evening. One consisted of writing
one verse of some popular songs on a
number of sheets of paper. These
sheets were then cut into four pieces
each guest receiving one piece. 1t
was then the duty of the guests to
find. the persons that held the other
three parts of the particular song
which they had. This of course took
some little time and caused not a little |
fun. The four pieces were put to-
gether and each group of four had to
sing their song. This caused consider
able merriment.
Another game called Egg Football
was played. The contents of an egg
were blown out through tiny holes at
either end and the empty she'll was
used in the game. Two glasses were
placed at each side of the table, to
represent the goals. Sides were chosen
and two people were picked by the
captains to represent their respective
sides. The egg she'll was placed in
he center of the table and each was
o blow his or her hardest in an effort
o reach their goal This was very
good exercise for the lungs and was
,ujoyed by all The side making the
highest score was presented with
,ox of candy, which the captain passed
round to the members of his team.

Plan Improvement
of Mingo Highway
tBy Charles Brooks SMITH

Washington. d. c., Aug. 21.-The
federal government is to give prompt
aid to the construction of a class A
road from Pikeville, KY. to William
son, w. Va. That assurance was given
to Congressman Wells Goodykoontz, Of
West Virginia., and John Langley, of
Kentucky, by the director of the bu-
reau of roads when they called on that
official to discuss the project with him.
He assured them that as soon as the
plans and specifications already COM
pleted by the Kentucky officials are
received by his department he will ex-
pedite action looking to approval by
the federal government, and expressed
the opinion that there was likely to be
no hitch in Washington to delay the
project. With that approval secured,
1t means that the national government
will pay half the cost Of constructing
the road from Pikeville to Williamson,
a distance of 3S miles.
On June 80 last Kentucky had a
credit In the federal-aid- to-roads of
81 ,250.000. Last week the house passed
an additional appropriation for this
fund amounting to s75.000.0 900 which
the senate is confidently expected to
concur In. West Virginia. as well as
all the other states, win get Its pro-
portionate share OF this latest appro-
priation when 1t Is finally made avail
able by the senate's concurrence
