WEEKEND CAMP.

The Akiyuhapi Camp Fire Girls
and their guardians, Rev. and Mrs.
j. A. Christian, spent the weekend
at Heddleston mansion near College
Hill. The crowd went out in cars.
At 6 o'clock a beautiful supper
was served, then moot court was held
to decide the very mighty case of
who should rule supreme. After
hearing the claims from the spokes-
men of the three divisions, the upper
classmen and freshmen of Ole Miss
and the seniors of the high school,
Judge Harry Bryan, special guest for
the evening in his most learned man
ner rendered the verdict that the
seniors could rule from $50 to II
o'clock sharp, and the freshmen from
II to 6 A. NJ, and the others until
camp broke.
At 7 o'clock the horn blew for a
'possum hunt. Those who answered
the call were Misses Rosa Lee Fried
man, Kathleen Corbett, Cilia and May
Gilmore, Margaret and Mary Florence
Carnathan, Willie Webb and Myra
Dunlap, Martha Buffaloe. Sallie Simp
son, Louise Blasingame, Elmira Kim
mons; Messrs. Christian, Bryan,
Gregory and Herring, several negroes
and large pack of hounds. After
roaming in the cleaning across fields,
down and up the banks of bitches,
through and over barbed wires, the
girls began to think that fate was
against them. The crowd decided
they needed to rest and therefore
built large bonfire and gathered
around it. Then one of the party an
nounced the victory of the Ole Miss
Freshmen over A. & M. In response
passed to burn the A. & NJ. freshmen
in effigy and it was carried. A large
fire was built and war dance was
given until Mr.. Christian told US we
were soaring all the 'possums away.
just then the yelping of dogs and
yelling of the negroes announced that
a 'possum was at last treed. After
making 100yard dash across a field
the crowd came to the tree where they
found a negro holding a 20-pound
'possum. Great was the rejoicing
over the one animal. It was espe-
cially interesting because Miss Cor
bett had never seen & 'possum be-
fore, not even in zoo.
The crowd went in at II o'clock.
Later large midnight feast was
served by Mrs Christian and Miss
Margie Corbett, who had stayed at
the house.
After a refreshing sleep the girls
awoke the next morning ready to
work, and play, and celebrate Arm
istice Day.
Since it was Miss NJ. r. Carna-
than's birthday the camp helped her
to celebrate and presented her with
little rennembrances and gave to her
best wishes for many returns of the
day
The. crowd returned to town Satur~
day at 2 p NJ.

if he can get the support that his line
of bakery goods is entitled to will
be able to do good business.
The people of Keytesville can make
it mighty hard for any st. Louis

"Dear Mr.. Reed: l received your

WILLIAMS
REMOVED FROM OFFICE

d. P. james, presiding judge of the
county court, informed the Democrat
this afternoon (Tuesday) that Consta-
BILE Joe Williams, of Sugar Creek
township. was removed from office
this morning by order of the county
court sitting at Huntsville.
He said that complaint was filed
against Williams by E. H. Wall, of
Clark charging that the constable
had failed to account for a certain
collection made by him for Wall.
Another contributing cause for his
removal, Judge James said, was the
fact that ]. w. and Vern Bundridge
had been his bondsmen, and when
ordered to furnish a new bond, he
had failed to do SO.
Williams successor will be ap-
pointed by the county court at
Huntsville Wednesday. = Moberly

COUNTY AGENT JAY BUYS
FARM NEAR MENDON

County Farm Agent r. D. Jay this
week purchased the Tanner farm
south of Mendon from L. M. Stewart
and Z. c. Poynter and will occupy the
same after March I, 1923.
Mr.. Jay has spent several months
looking over farms not only in this
county, but in other states with a
view of selecting a location where
soil, railroad facilities, schools and
churches would combine to make a
desirable place in which to live. He
believes he has found all of these in
the vicinity of Mendon and it speaks
well for this community that a man
as capable of judging these things
as is Mr.. Jay should buy property
here to make his future home.s
He intends to thoroughly improve
the farm and fit it for specializing
in the breeding and raising of thor
oughbred hogs, as well as making it
an up-to-date country home in every
respect. -Mendon Constitution.

BITTEN BY A MAD DOG

Miss Nora Beckebrede, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Beckebrede,
living six miles and one-half north
east of Carrollton, was bitten by a
mad dog Thursday evening.
The wound was not serious, mere
ly flesh wound. Not knowing the
exact nature of a dog with rabies,
Mr.. Brekebrede called DR.. Atwood,
who had the head capitated and sent
to Kansas City for examination, and
The examination revealed the pres
ence of rabies.
Although Miss Brekebrede is re-
ported as doing nicely she had very
narrow escape.
These dogs are said to be in vari-
Gus parts of the country, and citizens
are requested to be watchful and to
kill all stray dogs that are the least
bit suspected of rabies.-Carrollton

GRAND JURY MADE
IT'S REPORT MONDAY

The grand jury which has been JIM
vestigating the tangled affairs of the
Farmers and Merchants bank, made
it's report at 2:30 Monday afternoon to
Judge A. w. Walker and was dismiss
ed.
The report was not made public, it
being contrary to law to make pub
lie joint indictments when one of the
parties has not been apprehended.
It is rumored that AZ indictments
were returned against ]. W. and vern
Bundridge. Some of these are said
to be on one count and others on
two and three counts.
Vern Bundridge was brought to
Moberly this afternoon for arraign-
ment after the report Of the jury.
1t is understood that his bond has
been fixed at $4,000.
In the court room with him, stand
ing by with parental loyalty, was his
father. Only comparatively few in.
terested spectators were present and
on account of the secretiveness of the
proceedings there was nothing OUT
wardly dramatic in the court scene.
n ,outwaraiy Mr.. Bnndridge appear
ed calm, and when addressed by any
one responded with his usual pleas
ant smile
He viii be brought back to Mo-
berry and ~arraigned Thursday, at
which time his attorneys, NJ. J. Lii
ly and A. r. Hsmmett, will ask the
court to reduce his bond.

PARIS PREACHER GOES
TO SUNDAY BALL GAMES

Believing that the proper way to
make Sunday baseball clean and unob-

presence help to that end, Rev. v. T.
Wood, pastor of the Paris Christian
church, has for two Sundays past
been among the spectators in the
grand stand at local games. He is an
athlete himself, loves manly games,
and thinks there is no more harm in
playing good, clean ball on Sunday
than in going to picnics or riding the
country over in automobiles. In APP
probation of his attitude the local
team attended his church in body
