We are now realizing the truth OF
that old song "How in the heck will
we wash our neck, if it amt a'goin
to rain any more" The prolonged
drouth has reached the alarming
stage. All vegetation is simply dry
ing up, as well as the water supply,
which is at the lowest stage ever
known here by the oldest residents.
The potato crop in this section is al
most complete failure, and that
there will be none unless rain comes
soon. Mrs. C. A. Stegner who un-
derwent an operation at a Marietta
hospital last week, still shows inn
provement, and hopes are now en-
tertained that she can soon be re-

best yield in recent years. John t..
Wells, near here, found three of his

Rarn On Fire

Thursday evening about $50
word came over the lines that the
Mrs. Fannie Lyle barn was on fire.
Luckily several men had gathered
at the store, and it was only very
few minutes until they We're on the
scene, where we found two drums of
water which had been hauled for
the stock. and perhaps this accounts
for the fact that the barn was saw
ed. as all the wells and cisterns are
dry. The Radcliff family had been
about the barn earlier in the even
ing taking care of team of horses
belonging to Mr. Radcliff, and Mrs.
Lyle had been through the barn
doing the milking. The fire started
in a little compartment that had
been built in for a corn crib, but
not used much, as it was too tight.
An accumulation of chaff and some
baled straw made an ideal setting
for a start, so that had it occurred
at most any other hour of the day
or night, it would have meant the
loss of the barn. The McConnels-
vile fire department was called,
and was soon at the scene, but al
ter the fire was out. ct made the
run in IL minuteS). While several
very plausible ways were given as to
how the fire started, they are only
coniectural. The sounding of the
siren and the use of the telephone
soon brought a large crowd of men
women and children. 1t seemed that
a steady stream of autos followed
the fire department over creek hill
for some Is or 20 minutes. While
all are glad, Mrs. Lyle and son Mr.
Radcliff are doubly thankful that
their barn was saved, and to all who
helped, or came to help.
Mrs. Fanny McGregor and daugh-
ter Miss Lura of Barberton, came
Thursday for visit at the j. F. and
r. f. McGregor homes, and with 9th
er friends here.

Saturday afternoon Miss Lizzie

passed away very suddenly. She had

nelsvile route two, all of whom were
in attendance at the funeral. Miss
Broedel was highly respected wom-
an-the love and motherly care she
bestowed on her motherless neph-
ews and nieces had won her place
in not only the hearts of the chill
dren, but of those who knew the
family She was a member of the
