Reinersville

Logan COMBS, OF Hickory, Pa,
was a visitor last week at the H. c.
Combs home here. He was painting
roofs and doing some other repair
ing on the S. W. Combs farm near
Olive Green.
w. p Smith is having a veranda
erected on the front and part way
along the west side of his residence,
which will add much to both the
appearance and convenience OF his
home. w H. Brill and Charles
Hutchins are doing tte work.
Jacob Nichols, or Missouri, and
Rev. Dye of Belle Valley were Wis
itors in Reinersville on Friday of
last week. Mr.. Nichols and his wife
drove through by auto from their
home in Missouri Mr. Nichols for
merly lived in this township and his
wife was a daughter of the late
Minor Dye, who was formerly resi-
dent of upper Manchester township.
Mr.. Nichols states that Missouri has
the prospect for an enormous corn
crop.
A reunion of the Garvin families
was held at the home of George
Garvin near here last Sunday, at
which there was quite large at
tendance.
Mrs. Marie Mercer of Pleasant
City was a visitor last week at the
w M. Smith home near here.
Employment Seekers
A man was here the first of the
week hunting employment as house
painter, who claimed to have travel
ed all the way from the state of
Iowa without having any success
here with a one-horse wagon con-
veying chest of carpenters, tools
who was also seeking employment.
1t looks to us as though there is
something radically wrong when a
man must travel one-third across the
United States without finding en-
ployment in either of these trades.
Mr.. and Mrs. Raymond Kennard
are visitors at the K. K Welch
home. Recently they made an au-
tomobile camping trip through the
west, that extended into the noun
tains.
Mrs. Tracy Smith and son of Ok
lahoma are visiting at the w. P.
Smith home here and also with the
w. w. Wilson family.
The rain Saturday cancelled the
Centerville picnic program for the
forenoon, but the band went at noon
and an interesting program was put
on in the afternoon with a good
crowd present.
Mrs. Ora Allen who has been at
the home of her parents Mr.. and
Mrs. Daniel Shuster for several days
recuperating from the effect of an
operation at the Good Samaritan
hospital at GAINESVILLE, will be
brought to her home here Sunday.
She is getting along as well as could
be expected.
We are in receipt of card from
the Gillilands, who are at Evanston,
Ill.,, complimenting us for our eff
forts in collecting Reinersville news
for the Democrat. We did not
our efforts, but if we feel they do it
will cause us to attempt to do better
in the future. Mrs. Gillfland and
daughter Gladys expect to return to
their home on Friday of this week,
the school closing on Thursday.
