REINERSVHIE

DR.. III. Il. Fiscus has bought a
radio outfit and when he has had it
installed, will be SAble to sit at his
home while listening to concerts and
lectures. The Independent farm
ers' institute announced for Nov.
CT, has been called off on account
of being too short time to secure
funds and make other necessary ar
rangements. .On Wednesday ey-
ening of last week, about 40 friends
of Stella Shuster came in to remind
her that it was her birthday. A
pleasant evening was spent making
candy, and in social conversation.
Mrs. Jno. Figley, who with her hns-
band formerly lived at this place
and later lived for number of years
on farm near Olive Green. died the
forepart of last week at the home
of her son in Massillon, o. The re-
mains were brought to Renrock
where they were inferred by the
side of her husband who died sew
eral years ago. Mr.. and Mrs.
Franklin Dye of Mansfield were
week end visitors here. Mr.. Dye is
one of the teachers in Mansfield
schools. "A little more than $10O
was taken in at the school carnival
put on at the school building here
Friday evening. The expense was
quite bit, SO that we have not been
able to learn the amount of the net
receipts. VIM. Hutchins of Zanes-
vile was week end visitor here.
Clarence Wilson and sister Mrs.
Gertrude GilliIand of Cambridge
came to the Gilliland home Satur-
day and remained until Monday

Monday evening for the new part to
the school building, that is 20 feet
high and contains almost 800V
brick Mr.. and Mrs. w F. Bu-
chanan of McConnelsville were yis-
itors from Saturday until Sunday at
the r.. A. Arrick home. ). Mr.. Hill Of
Bridgeport, o., gave a radio enter
tainment at the Noel Sbuster home,
Friday evening. The carnival held
at the high school building Friday
evening was well attended and all
seemed to enjoy the stunts, play, and
refreshments. Our high school has
been unable, on account of lack of
room, to offer vocational subjects,
as our inspector urged. In view Of
the addition to the building, we have
added typewriting to our course,
and now have four machines, ae-
commodating 13 students. The
Scott brothers of McConnelsville
will present a minstrel play en-
titled, "A Good Days Work" at the
high school building at Reinersyilfe,
Friday evening, Nov. z, at .
o'clock.

R;rthdav Party AZ j. R. Farra's

On Saturday, Oct. 25, ten Civil
war veterans and number of w. r.
C. women met at the home of Com
rade j. B. Farra and wife to re-
mind Mr.. Farra that he had reached
another milestone of his life.
A. ID. King represented the 36th
Regiment. He and his five brothers
were in the service. The oldest
brother was wounded, the youngest
was killed in battle.
Concerning the others present, the
following is noted: Boone Smith OF
the 18th Ohio was a good forager,
usually getting ham or chicken.
James Smith, brother of Boone
Smith, of the 77th, was as brave as
lion at the battle of Shiloh, be-

CHESTERKIII.L

One of the most important Ioca,
| issues before the voters of Marion
| township, on next Tuesday is the
/ 5000 bond issue to complete the
/ furnishing of the new school build.
/ ing at Chesterhill. This issue which
/ will be used to purchase scientific
| apparatus, auditorium chairs, some
! new desks, lighting fixtures, etc
will furnish just the minimum
! equipment for our school in order
to maintain it's present status of q
/ first grade high school. AS the
state has already contributed about
| $500 directly toward the building
in addition to making up the def
icit on running expenses, we can
not hope for any more state aid for
new equipment 1t is up to us. This
issue will not increase the tax rate
any more than the new building
did Do not handicap your boys and
girls who are to be tKe citizens of
tomorrow, by voting no, but give
them the chance to do good work by
providing good equipment.
C. p. Yocom and wife made trip
to Columbus last week. John and
Anna Crew called at Emmor Bow
mans Sunday. At Chesterhill they
picked up Ida Dutton and Sara
Rabberman and gave them a nice
ride, it being such pleasant day
for an outing. u. L. Kennard's
have reached Florida, still living in
a tent. Roy found work immediate
ly. Wilbur was to start. in to
school Monday. Mr.. and Mrs. w
A. Thomas visited at AmesVille,
Sunday, at their sons F. L. Thomas.
Carl and Edith Patterson and
Thomas and Ella Edgerton spent
Sunday at Nathan Burgess.
Mrs. Eleanor Wright Dies
Mrs. Eleanor B. Wright, aged So
years, residing at Walnut Hills,
Cincinnati, died Sunday, following
a stroke of apoplexy. She had been
i'll for nearly a year. She was a
native of Chesterhill and went to
live with her daughter Miss Mary L..
Wright, a number of years ago. She
is survived by the daughter and a
son DR.. A. B. Wright of Akron. The
body was laid to rest in the Friends
cemetery at Chesterhill Oct 28, be-
side her husband. The children were
accompanied from Cincinnati by
Misses Velma Tucker and Mary
Walker who had nursed Mrs. Wright
through her long illness. Others in
attendance from a distance were DR..
c. b. Morrey, o. S. u; Miss Annie
Morrey, Martins Ferry high school,
nephew and niece of Mrs. Wright;
also Mrs l.. t. Gray of McConnels-
willie and Mrs Carl Ross of Malta,

Attorney General c. c. Crabbe was
another wind jammer on the pro-
| granl-the man who has perhaps
done more to tie the hands of Gov
ernor Donahey than any other man.
| He, knowing that many people here
had lost money in the Dollings COM
pany, made that the principal topic
| of his speech. OF course he didn't
get anywhere along that line, since
our people here know that practical
| ly every dollar they invested in that
stock was not during the administra-
tion of Governor Donahey, and the
governor before Donahey was Harry
| l.. Davis. Crabbe is getting desper-
ate, and unless all signs fail, he will
be the lowest man on the Republic
can state ticket this year, with the
possible exception of Harry L.
Davis.
"Crab" thought to make a ten
strike by reading telegram which
/ he sent to Governor Donahey Tues
day morning while at GAINESVILLE, and
said now wait for his reply (think-
/ ing of course that he had the COVER
nor cornered). Well, the reply came
in the Wednesday morning papers
a sizzling hot one, in which Honest
! Vic took the hide off of the attorney
general, hung up the singed pelt,
and then punctured it through and
/ through.
| Percy Tedrow was another filler
! in until Senator Willis arrived. He
evidently has but one set speech,
! which he gives in labor centers, but
it was clear out of place here.
Late as usual, Senator Frank B.
Willis arrived. 1t is a tie between
C. Ellis Moore and Willis as to
uEtcL las talked the most and done
the least He had the nerve to ask
Democrats to vote for Coolidge in or
der to make the defeat of LaFollette
the more certain. This in the face
of the fact that he himself betrayed
the president. OF course he failed
to tell about his whitewashing New
berry, before he was ousted from

Thnu yVonI4in,f Rally

With four of the best speakers the
local Republican committee Eve
should have said the Lyme club
.room) could muster up, and with
much advertising and various sorts
of publicity, the band, special mu-
sic, ETC., and with an ideal day, the
roads in the best condition of the
season, and coming when the farm
ers have the slackest time of the
year, the crowd here Tuesday after
noon at the Republican rally, was
@ genuine frost. The down stairs
was fairly well filled, and a scatter
ing few in the balcony-not an or
dinary moving picture show crowd.
The first speaker was C. Ellis
Moore, and he made his usual set
speech, after the style of Andy
Gump, telling the audience that he
had made good. He showed interest
enough in our road problems
here, to express sympathy, and vir-
tually admitted his weakness in
congress when he stated that with
the hundreds of other congressman
after road appropriations, it was a
mighty hard thing to get. He tried
to tell how prosperous the farmers
are, when as a matter of fact the
farmers, due largely to the robber
tariff which he supported, can hard
1y make both ends meet, and are
mortgaging their farms, and going
bankrupt He closed with all the
eloquence he could command, beg
ging his hearers to not besmirch the
name of Warren G.. Harding which
interpreted means to not say word
about the Teapot Dome scandal, and
Fall, DENLY, Daugherty, ct al-the
men who worried the president into
his grave. Nobody is besmirching
the name of Harding. Wonder If
Moore thinks people have forgotten
how he "besmirched" the name of
Woodrow Wilson?
Mrs. Clark, former member of
the state board of pardons, and
ousted by Governor Donahey, was
another speaker. She euo1ogized

Mysterious Pains And
Aches
Make Life Hard to Bear for Many
McConneIsvilIe Women


Too many women mistake their
pains and aches for troubles pc
culiar to the sex. More often dis
ordered kidneys are causing the
aching back, dizzy spells, headaches
and irregular urinati0n. Kidney
weakness becomes dangerous il
neglected. Use time-tried kidney
remedy-Doan's Pills. Hosts of
people testify to their merit. Read
a McConnelsvilie case:
Mrs. J. G. Savage, Liberty ST.,
SAYS: "My kidneys troubled me off
and on for some time, and dull,
bearing down pain on my back wore
on me. I was soon run down and a
tired ,listless feeling made me mis-
! erable. Stars danced before my
eyes, blurring my sight, and was
troubled with dizzy spells. My kid
neys were weak and out of fix. !
purchased Doan's Pills at the Stan
berry Pharmacy and after taking one
box, the backache was gone and my
kidneys were strengthened use
Doan's occasionally and always get
the same fine results" sag
Prize Coo, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Pills-the same that
Mrs. Savage had. Foster-Mil-

nor for removing Mrs. Mae Stan
nard of the Girls Industrial school
at Delaware. We wonder if she
thought she could get away with
such stuff here? Our people know
that the removal of Mrs. Stannard
was one of the best things Gov Don
ahey ever did We have facsimiles
of letters written by Mrs. Stannard,
to mothers of the girls under her
charge, which are so vile that they
are unprintable. Mrs. Stannard had

fore the bullets began to fly. Charles
Pyle OF the 18th Indiana, who stole
the roasting ears, was bothered by
his conscience. as he was raised in
a Methodist family, so before leav-
ing the premises he laid 25c piece
on the fence to pay for the corn
Joe Flanders of the 30th Ohio was
the big 1T" at the siege Of Vicks-
burg. Jabez Mcdaniel of the 1st
Ohio Heavy Artillery, being of the
Methodist persuasion, never took
anything except what he could carry
away. Billy Williams of the ED
Ohio can tell you more about the
Civil war than any other 62d fell
low. Major Kahler of the 62d was
the champion letter writer home to
the girls. Israel Fouts of the 122d
was a hero of Winchester j. B.
Farra of the 62d, modest fellow,
knows everything but seldom says
anything.
After partakinG of sumptuons
dinner, on motion Major Kahler
was made chairman. Program was
as follows: America, by all; re-
marks made by different comrades,
and the remainder of the afternoon
spent in the singing of patriotic
songs. Before adjournment respect
was paid to a freezer of Hughes
