Pennington is
Well Remembered

The Times is reliably informed that
Pennington has been splendidly re-
membered in the will of the late Mrs.
Jennie Bisby, who recently passed to
her eternal reward from her home in
Hamilton, Canada. According to our
information, the Long Memorial Build
ing has been suitably provided for.
Besides this, $4,000 has been donated
to the M. E. Church, South, of this
city; $1,000 to the Presbyterian Or
phanage, and the splendid Long home
has been bequeathed to the city of
Pennington.
Such splendid beneficenccs to the
old home of this most excellent wo-
man will remain as an enduring mon
ument to the gracious soul that
prompted them, and will cause her
many, good deeds to be handed down
from generation to generation with
out ceasing.

Another Big
Sales Day

For the third time Pennington en-
ioyed another very successful Sales
Day occasion last Saturday, under the
auspices of the Farmington CONNER
cial Club. In fact, the latest event
perhaps exceeds both previous occa-
sions Of this kind, both as to the
great crowd that assembled, as well
as the diversified and splendid aruse-
ment and entertainment that had been
prepared.
Six thousand is thought to be
conservative estimate Of the number
who visited Pennington that day, and
that all thoroughly enjoyed them
selves was plainly apparent. The day
was full Of entertainment. In fact.
It was running over, making it inn
possible for anyone to witness all that
was going on in the way Of carefully
prepared entertainment.
The most important Of the days
transaction, and which attracted the
most absorbing interest among those
vitality interested, as well as their
friends, was the display and distri-
button Of the Holstein herd of heif-
ers that had just arrived from Wis
consin, where they had recently been
purchased by a buyer who had been
sent for the purpose Of supplying the
orders from the members Of the Calf
Club Of this community. In the herd
were forty-three head, and every one
was beauty.
The awarding was done by drawing.
so as to eliminate all doubt of the fair
ness Of the transaction, the heifers
bearing numbers corresponding with
those held by their future owners, the
price having previously been fixed for
each heifer. These heifers wers
bought at right figures, SO that every
one who was fortunate enough to have
gotten in an order is to be congratulat-
ed. The parade of these heifers about
the business streets enabled all to in
spect them and pass Judgment, which
was invariably favorable.
Everyone thoroughly enjoyed them
selves, and the merchants were thor
oughly satisfied with what the days
program had cost them, as all enjoyed
splendid trade. Owing to the fact
that the weather began turning cold
soon afternoon, the great crowd began
70 depart for their homes earlier than
they would otherwise have done. But
the occasion was thoroughly enjoyed.
as was frequently attested by ques-
lions such as wonder when the next
Sales Day win be held?" That fact
alone is sufficient to place it in the list
If another success.

This excellent citizen closed his
earthly career at his home in this city
on April 14th, at 4:30 p. M, aged SIS
years, 6 months and days. Tuburc-
ular throat trouble, superinduced by
lagrippe, was the cause Of death. De-
ceased had been resident of this city
for many years. being engaged in the
harness business. from which he but
recently retired owing to poor health.
He was Of a modest, retiring dispo-
sition, though he had the utmost re-
spect Of everyone who knew him. He
is survived by his devoted wife, whose
loving care and ministrations doubt
less made his last days contented and
peaceful. Funeral services were held
in the home Saturday afternoon, con-

Do Not Send An
onym0us Letters

The officers of the law are being
continually sent unsigned letters
which purport to give information re-
garding possession of stills and other
whisky making articles, and also pur-
porting to accuse certain persons with
illegal traffic in intoxicating liquor.
Hereafter, it is sincerely requested,
that all persons sending letters to the
officers will sign their names thereto
SO the officers will know who to quiet
ly and confidentially interview. Letters
written and information given will be
kept sacredly confidential even though
the names are signed thereto, but the
officers must have some one to inter
view in order to get clew to the vio-
lation of the law.
A person who will write an anony-
nous letter indicates cowardly spir-
it and does the law-enforcing machin.
cry absolutely no good. A true
American citizen who is honest in as
sisting the officers will sign his or
her name to any letter written for a
bona fide purpose.
Please, therefore, let us know who
we can interview and don't send un-
signed letters.
Respectfully submitted,
WE. Golfer,
Prosecuting Attorney

Great Occasion
Is Anticipated

Elaborate preparations are being
made by st. Francois Lodge No. 48,
|. o. o. F., of this city, to make the
occasion of the presentation Of two
Veteran Pins next Monday evening,
April 25th, a memorable occasion in
the annals of Oddfellowship in South
east Missouri. On that occasion 800
or 400 visiting Odd Fellows and Re-
bekahs, are expected to be present,
and arrangements will be perfected
for their entertainment.
Z This will really be a noteworthy oc-
casion in the history of that most ex-
cellent order. The fact that two mems
bers Of st. Francois Lodge No. IS will
then confer such mark of favor on
two'of its members, who have for the
past fifty years been continuous meri-
bers of the local lodge. is circum-
stance that has seldom, if ever, been
equaled, even in larger lodges. The
two members who will receive these
signal marks of distinction are Joe
alexander, Of st. Louis, and John Lo-
renze, of Nashville, ILL.,, both Of whom
will be guests of honor.
3. B. Garner. of Springfield, Mo-,
Grand Master of Missouri Odd Eel
ows, will arrive in Pennington on the
noon train Monday to preside at the
and celebration. The cere-
monies will take place in Odd Fellows
,all, where splendid banquet will al
10 be served.

Splendid Effort
Brings Victory

When the good people Of Farming
ton become thoroughly aroused and
determined in any laudable effort
there Is no such thing as restraining
or holding them back. 1t Is then chat
they work as a unit, and 1t has long
since been established that a thor
oughly united force, or community
can overcome practically all opposi-
tion, provided that such opposition is
not equally united.
We refer to the manner in which
the many friends Of the Epworth
League flocked to the assistance Of
that splendid body Of young Christian
workers in the final monthly contest
for the silver loving cup, presented by
the St. Francois County Association
Of Epworth Leagues. The fact APP
pears to be that the Farlnington
League already had become permanent
owners OF the loving cup, even before
the last meeting. but their desire was
to bring the trophy back with them
from that meeting, without giving any
opponent the chance Of keeping it for
another month, which would have been
the result had the local league failed
to again carry off the attendance rec
ord Friday evening.
Though the Epworth League of this
city wss handicapped over all compet-
itors in distance to the final meeting
OF the cup contest, and though the
night was dark and stormy, the man
ner in which the members Of the
League and their many supporters
rallied for the occasion was indeed in
spring. Theirs was loyalty that re-
fused to recognize defeat, and it was
an inspiring sight to see scores. of
loaded automobiles dart off into the
threatening night in the direction of
Bonne Terre, where they all arrived
POT of them--to respond to roll call.
The number proved to be sufficient
for the worthy end in view. In fact
there were number to spare, as the
Pennington delegation at the Bonne
Terre meeting of the County Epworth
League considerable outnumbered all
compe, itors combined. All those who
participated in this splendid demon
stratjon. in any manner, is entitled to
credit, even though it is doubtful If
any desired personal credit. The
splendid demonstration was, we feel,
due to but two things--Ioyalty for
home and love for seyape. sss.

MACH|N|STS UNION
WOULD AVOID STRIKES

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-U. P1
The international association of ma.
chinists, with $4,000 members, is
working to eliminate the economic
waste to the public, employers and
the workers themselves through
strikes and lockouts, General Secre-
tary Dawson announced. The anti
strike campaign of the association in
'cludes a setting up of shop commit
tees. arbitration boards and the use
of the Norfolk idea" in handling
economic disputes. The Norfolk idea
was carried out at Norfolk, Va, where
the association bought the 100000
mortgage of one machine shhop which
refused to settle differences with the
men. Davidson said the employers
association was bringing pressure to
bear to coerce the shops into adop-
tion of policy discriminating against
union workers. The mortgage was
purchased through the Mount Vernon
savings bank of Washington, which
was controlled by the association.
During 1919, strikes and lockouts
cost members of the machinists asso-
citation $92,134,76O," said Davidson.
THE loss to employers was approxi-
mately $2O7 100000. There is no
way even to estimate the loss of the
public"
