BY 800 Or More

4
The first annual home coming of
the Eagleport vicinity was held
Sunday at the Eagleport church.
Notwithstanding incIement wealth.
er, some 800 people were in at
tendance. The good folks of the
community had put the finishing
touches on the church and yard,
and this with the clearing of the
river bank directly in front of the
church by Fl. L. Woodward and C.
G. Seyler, made an ideal picture of
the beautiful blue Muskingum. that
river that we talk so much about.
yet seldom see on account of the
growth of brush and weeds along its
banks. Maybe this will be an incen-
tive for other folks to clear their
river front, and then drive along
the river will be really a joy and
pleasure. The dinner that graced
that long table the entire length of
the Maccabee hall was most bount-
eous, and certainly did not bespeak
depression. The flower gardens
of Eagleport were at the best, and
some of the most beautiful adorned
the front of the church Mr.. G.. 3
Lindimore, teacher for many years
of the Eagleport school, and the
superintendent of the Sunday school.
presided in very able manner. He
stated that no special program had
been prepared, but with the assist
ance of Judge Weber leading the
music and Mrs. C. c. Seyler at the
piano, many of the old hymns were
woven in between the several talks
by many of the former residents,
and two hours program resulted
Judge Weber recalled events just
prior to the building of the present
church some so years ago. Miss
Rachel Mckinney read a sketch of
the early history of the community,
and short talks were given by John
Darringer, J. b. She'll Fred Num-
mey Earle Eveland, DR.. c. E. Nor
thrup, J. L. Maier, Mrs. Earle Eve
land, Mrs. w. G. Greer, Rev. James
F. Fish, DR.. Lee Humphrey, DR..
Clyde Jones, and the pastor of the
church, Rev. L. B. Douglas. Splen-
cid letters were read, having been
received from Mr. H. A. Strong, Ft.
Scott, Kan, former teacher and
Sunday school superintendent, and
DR.. G. E. Kinzel, Wilmington, for
mer teacher. DR.. Clyde Jones,
Brooklyn, N. Y, came all the way
to be at the home coming and meet
his many former friends. A large
of people from GAINESVILLE,
Columbus, Cambridge, and the sur
rounding communities, helped swell
the crowd. The good folks of
Eagleport were very kind in receiv-
ing the people, and everyone seemed
to have a good time.
Officers were elected for next
year, and no doubt bigger prepar-
ations will be made and great gath
ering of former residents will be
notified in plenty of time so that
they may make plans to attend The
home coming next year will be held
On the second Sunday in September,
which will be Sept. g. Officers are
Earle Eveland, president, and C. C.
Seyler secretary-treasurer. Various
committees will be appointed by the
PRESIDENT in due time to make ar
for next year We be-
ieve that every community should
lave these home comings. 1t brings
he people together and gives them
N opportunity to recall the happy
lays of long ago. We hope that
many years hence we can attend
Iome comings at Eagleport

Concerning Center Township Schools

Concerning Center Township Schools
The following letter from the
state department of education, to
Mr. j. D. Wilson, clerk of Center
township board of education, ex-
plains itself:
Dear Mr.. Wilson:-I have stated
to individuals several times and l
am very glad to say in writing to
you or to anyone else, that | was
solely responsible for the initiation
and adherence to the request that
the Center Rural Board of Educa-
tion close the Moscow school in the
interest of economy. The original
recommendation was that about
10 children be taught by three
teachers in 1933-34 instead of five,
as last year This was modified to
permit the employment Of four
teachers in order to make less
drastic requirement Of the board of
education. OF course, neither the
clerk nor the board of education at
tempted to reduce the number of
teachers in the district or at Hack
ney. The state aid regulations do
not permit the employment of more
than one teacher at Hackney, but
the full intention is to have the
second teacher at Hackney in an
other year
If anybody is blaming the clerk
or any members Of the board of ed
ucation, he is simply looking for
some one to find fault with, because
they have had no responsibility in
the matter whatever.-Very truly
yours, L. L. Louthian, State Ex-
aminer.

WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-The re-
covery program radiates into every
home and store, factory and mine,
and forest, and literally into every
field where for the next two years
production was planned. This week
it reached out to cover every ship
that flies the Stars and Stripes with
the submission of code by the Am
erican steamship lines. As the Pre-
sident told his neighbors at his New
York farm, Recovery cannot be
applied to one industry or one sec
ton. The National Government
must think and act in national
terms"
Delays in starting work imnedi-
ately on numerous local public
works projects throughout the coun-
try have been due to failure Of re-
gional governments to comply
promptly with the provisions Of the
Federal law, for which many ses-
sions of State legislatures were
called. Projects for the Federal
Government alone are going forward

PREVENTION VAST
AMOUNT ILLNESS
MADE POSSIBLE

During the month Of September
the return of hundreds Of children
to school naturally reminds us that
the methods of modern inlnlunologic
practice makes it possible to prevent
a vast amount of illness and death
from communicable diseases. I'M
munization of children of school age
and school age has so marked
ly reduced the morbidity and NOR
tality from diptheria in recent years
that We have come to regard this
disease as entirely preventable.
Among the interesting items in
cluded in a recent issue of the Sta
tistical Bulletin of the Metropolitan
Life Insurance Company is the fact
that the diptheria death rate Of the
first quarter Of 1888 was 30 per 10o.-
coo, very low rate as compared
with the death rate Of the same
quarter ten years ago; the figure
at that time was % per 100000. Ten
years ago the mortality rate for
diptheria alone is said to have been
approximately twice as high as that
which prevails today for measles,
scarlet fever, whoop:ng cough, and
diptheria combined.
Scarlet fever immunizatiin has
now been developed to such a point
that immunity is established in a
very high percentage of cases. In
some series the percentage Of cases
immunized has been reported to be
as high as 95 per cent. Universal
adoption of scarlet fever immuniza-
ton would no doubt eventually era
dicate this serious disease, which at
