YOU will there will be nothing but
gorgeous settings to meet the human
eye. The apple trees are in full
bloom. Their blossoms Of varied
hues are so dense so as to look as if
some giant flower was seeking to
display its great beauty to the word.
The forests not to be OutdOne, are
answering the demands of nature by
putting on their robes of green foli-
age. The grass is so pleasing to see,
with it's fine green color, and also
the pretty flowers as they bloom so
profusely by the way side. Making in
all a panorama of scenic splendor.
The dOgwoOd tree is now in flower.
It's pretty white blossoms are equal
ly seen in both the thicket and
swamp, helping to make the earth
more resplendent in its garb. AS We
pass along the highways we notice
the farmer is also doing his best to
make the world more beautiful. His
fields of clover and grain help in a
large measure to beautify the whole.
Is it not wonderful to behold these
beauties which the Divine Master
has put here for the comfort of the
inhabitants of the world. How many
as they look upon these things stop
to consider the source from whence
they come, or to give thanks to Him
Who showers blessings innumerable
on the just and the unjust.
The people Of Milton and Ellendale
should not stop working until the
highway to connect the two points
above mentioned is an assured fact.
We believe we are entitled to this
improvement. If the people will con-
tinue to agitate the matter the wri-
ter cannot help but think that the
gentlemen of the State Commission
will grant the request and build at
an early day the road so much de-
sired by the public at large. Keep on
working and talking and some day
in the near future you will see the
State engineers here mapping out a
route for the stone road to go.
A meeting of the farmers and 9TH
ers who lost timber or other proper
ty by the late fire, was held in the
White Hall on Friday afternoon,
April Both. An organization was af-
feCted by the election of J. A: Ellie
good of Glendale, as chairman, and
C. A. Kephart as secretary. After u
full discussion as to the best course
to pursue in getting the matter of
loss before the proper officials of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, 1t
was unanimously voted that COM
mittee of three be elected who
should at once proceed to get the

The sale of the building lots To-
Gated in "EllegOod's Addition" to
Hilendale, attracted many people
from other points. The real estate
sold for good prices. This was made
possible by the efficient work done
by ]. B. Dickerson and Sons, auc-
tioneers, who reside at Greenwood.
These men seem to be adept at
getting the high dollar for anything
they sell. Many Of the purchasers of
lots at this sale will commence to
erect homes at an early date.
