Capt. Milton c. Mclaughlin Dies

captain Milton e. McLaughlin
AGED S4, died Tuesday afternoon at
the Odd Fellows Home, Springfield.
following a brief illness from infirm-
1ties incident to advanced age He
was well known on the Muskingum
and Ohio rivers. He began his
steamboating career in about 1850
his first eXrCrence being as deck
hand on the Jonas Powell which
piled between Marietta and Zanes-
vile. His older brother Aaron was
pilot on the some boat. Because of
his aptitude for the work, Milton
Mclaughlin soon gained promotion.
and after securing his license as
pilot he was constantly employed
on either the Muskineum or Ohio
river until compelled to retire be-
cause Of advanced age. There have
been but very few boats on the
Muskingum river in the past so
years on which he did not serve as
pilot During the Civil war he was
ordered by the government TO pilot
on different streams in the south.
He was a lifelong friend of Cant.
lrven Travis Of this place, and the
TWO We're intimately associated for
about so years in the steamboat
buSlHeSS. BOtn were included q few
years ago in a long list of Al pilots.
and out Of that class Mr.. Travis is
one of the few surviving. Mr.. Nc
Lauehlin was captain of the govern
ment boat Vega. The deceased
made this place at one time his
home. His father owned the place
which is now the Mrs. Delana~ Sill
lery home, opposite the Presbyter-
ian church.
Capt. Mclaughlin is survived by
TWO sons, James c.. of Beaver. Pa.
and Frank of GAINESVILLE.
Funeral services will be held to-
day at the Hearing undertaking par
Tors, GAINESVILLE. at 1:30, conducted
by Rev. Mr.. Mcclure of the Central
NJ. E. church. Interment will be
made in Greenwood cemetery. and

Senior Glass Play One Of Originality,
Humor and Plot

Green Stockings" which is be-
ing presented by the Senior class at
the opera house next Wednesday
evening. is a humorous play both in
plot and dialoe The plot deals with
a custom whereby an elder sister is
obliged TO wear green STOCKINGS at
the wedding Of younger sister,
provided she happens to be unmar-
ried or unbetrothed.
After having worn the hated
green stockings on two occasions
Celia Faraday rebels when the time
comes for her to wear them the
third time. She therefore inyents
a sweetheart who hears the name Of
Smith and she excuses his nonap-
pearance by saying that Immediate
" after she had become engaged he
had been obliged to sail for the war
in South Africa. The surprise of
her sister forces her into details
which have 10 be invented at short
notice. She was induced to write
to him. Although Celia thinks she
destroyed it the letter is mailed by
her younger sister In an endeavor
to extricate herself from her pre-
dicament she later succeeds in hav-
ing published in the London
Times" that Colonel Smith died on
October II.
The strange part Of the story is
that the name which she thought
purely fictitious IS borne by an off
Ger in Her Maiesty's service who re-
ceives the letter and makes his ap-
pearance under an assumed name
shortly after the publication of his
death notice. His interview results
in series of laughabie situations
which end happily.

SAVING A HALF BILLION

q fotes E. B. Allen, President of The

$50 could be saved yearly by the
housewives of America, by the

elbow grease.
The figures suggest Other angles
that are interesting.
IF $1,000, or any considerable
part of it, can be saved in the home
baking of a single barrel of -four, in
the cost of the bread alone, what is
the total Of the economies thus eff
fected? It is admitted that home
made bread is appetizing and it has
long been recognized as the best and
healthiest food available. If its ap-
petizing and satisfying quality re-
suits in the use of ten per cent more

Arthur Clayton Mummey

Arthur Clayton Mummey, son of
George and Nina Mummey. was
born May z, 1900. and died May Z.
1922, aged % years. He leaves to
mourn, his parents. one brother and
two sisters.
His early childhood was spent in
the little home opposite the Olivet
school house where he was born. At
the age of 13 he united with the O..
M. church under the pastorate OF T.
F. Martin. When he was about IA
years of age, his parents removed
to the village of Stockport where he
entered high school, finally gradu-
ating with the class of IL lie was
however unable to complete his last
term hv several weeks. because Of
i'll health, but his grades We're such
that there was no question OF his
graduating, and although in very
weakened condition, he took his
place with his class on commence
ment night. From this time on he
gradually sank physically, fighting
the disease for five years, until his
death. Arthur was a young man
with high aims and aspirations. His
church membership was not merely
nominal, but was active. He was
president of the Christian Endeayor
society and teacher of the Willing
Workers class These last offices
were given over by him when, be-
cause of lack of strength. he was
unable to continue his duties, much
to the regret of these organizations.
There were many wonderful quail
ties in Athur's character, but one
that all admired was "grit." Every
one was his friend.
After all is it not fitting that
since God wanted him, he should
fall asleep at the dawn of his 22nd
birthday? Just a little while before
he fell into these slumbers, his
mother said, arthur, if You
shouldn't get we'll. is it all right?'
Gazing upward with a smile he re-
piled, Don't cry mamma, it is ali
right" We loved him, yes we low
ed him, But the angels loved him
more, and they have sweetly called
him -XX
