Advocate Locates
Children's Parents

Through the article appearing in
The Advocate Thursday, the two
children who "strayed" to the home
Of Mrs. J, M. SewelI, near SewelPs
Shop, December z, have been return
ed to their home in Ashland. The
day after the article appeared this
office was notified to communicate
with the chief of police att Ashland,
who would know the children's iden-
tity. This was done Immediately
and an officer from that city arriv>
ed yesterday and returned last night
with the two little wanderers. The
names given. Goldie and Ollie BIan-
ton, were their correct names, and
their father, who is still living, is
Fred Blanton, of Catlettsburg. The
children are very bright and attract
ed much attention when brought to
this city before their departure.
Mrs. Sewell had become very much
attached to the little girl and hated
to give her up. The stories told by
the children sound like fiction, as
they told of having secured the old
brown horse on the commons and
started on their journey in this d.
rection which took them ten days,
during which time they had only so
cents between them. They would
stop on the way and beg food and
shelter until they reached the home
of Mrs. Sewell, where they seemed
content to stay The lone 80 cents
was spent in having the old horse
shod and buying seven ears of corn
for his feed. A collection was ia
ken up here for the children and
they were returned to their home
none the worse for their runaway.

A NEW ENTERPRISE
TO BE STARTED HERE

Earl Henry, proprietor Of the Jer-
sey Milk Co., will leave for the lar
ger cities in few days where ice
cream plants are in operation, with
the view of installing modern ice
cream plant in connection with the
cream business. This is another
step in the right direction and such
plant would not only care for home
consumption, but would open up for
Mt. Sterling another avenue by
which outside money would be
brought here and put into circula-
ton. Such move on the part of
this company shows commendable
pluck that is worthwhile.

Important Meeting of
Commercial Executives

Secretary Manager C. f. Dunn, of
the Board of Commerce, Lexington,
has written the Presidents and Sec
retaries of the various Chambers of
Commerce throughout Eastern and
Central Kentucky suggesting a
meeting of the heads of those bod
les looking toward the organization
of League made up of such mem
bers. President Hoffman, of the To-
cal Chamber of Commerce, has, in
accepting of the suggestion, asked
that that the original meeting be held
at Mt Sterling. 1t has not yet been
decided just where this will be but it
is hoped that such invitation will be
accepted and that Mt. Sterling may
have the honor of entertaining such
a bunch of '1ive ones, the date
probably being toward the latter part
of the current month.

The Rogers Co.'S store was the
scene of considerable commotion one
day last week and large crowds were
seen to rush in and out in feverish
haste, Our reporter, who is always
on the lookout for copy, thinking
she had located big piece of news,
hurried over there and after push
ing her way through the crowd Of
women, hurried up to Mr.. Rogers
and inquired what the trouble was.
He informed her that he was cutting
and slashing prices and the women
had found it out on him and it was
just about all he could do to wait on
them. After picking up a few bar
gains herself, our reporter elbowed
her way out on the search for more
news.
