The conference year for the M. P.
church will end next Sunday. What
is in the brain of the future, we
know not.--The program for the
last meeting of the grange was left
entirely to the men. The writer was
not present, but we learn that H. R.
Blackburn, master, gave an interest
ing description of a visit and what
is being done in Muskingum county
in the way of soil conservation, and
j. Lynn Reed, deputy master, gave
the benefits that go with the sixth
degree. Farther than this, we know
not. The meeting for Aug. p, is in
the hands of the ladies. We hope to
attend.--It is said that there was
once upon a time, a man who at
tended a gathering where they dis
tributed paper-back song books, and
he used one throughout the entire
service without rolling it up, and
blowing through it. We doubt very
much if the story is true, but such a
thing could be possible, and the fell
low travelling with a carnival. The
annual Dickinson reunion was held
at Marietta last Saturday in the Civ
itan park. This beautiful, quaint
old city, so replete with historical
interest, added much to the oc-
casion.- .-Pif Wobblesox sez "he d

Sum laff at us when tha see us a
cummin, others glance at us with a
look Nv disdane, as much as tew say,
u OF tew keep that ole thing off tn
rode Wv course this ole fiiver most
always gifts us ther, but that's not tn
thing,-its tn looks Nv tn old
brute. Personally we don't care
much fur looks, but ther air places
wed like tew go, but we know that
tha wudn't want tew see such a look
in thing parked in front Nv ther'
house 1t wud disgrace tn premises.
It wud make Queen Ann front
look like Mary Ann back. Sum
time ago we drove up in front Nv a
house wher' tn man cud count his
cattle on a thousand hills" an tn
woman came out an stared at us,
an sed it wuz tn durndest pile NV
junk she'd ever seen in her yard,
an that wuz bout all she cud talk
about, until we made our escape.
We tried tew console her and told
her that if she'd forgive us that
wun offense we'd try an not be gilty
agin. If we cud git us new ma
chine we'd rid tew, church in it, an
when tn crowd wuz all out in front,
drive rite thru them an do lot
NV honkin' SO as tew attract atten-
shun, an get them tew look at us.
Yes, indeed, before we will go in det
fur an otteymobeel, we will walk,
or else git us bisickle, but as John
Weatherberry sez, we'd bout as soon
stan up an walk, as tew set down
an walk.

SINES-YAUGER HOLD FIFTH
ANNUAL REUNION

Starting from McConnelsville, o.,
Sunday, Aug. 8, at 7:15 a. M, we
motored down the White highway to
Marietta, where our eyes opened on
new scenes up the Ohio to Belpre,
where we crossed the toll bridge,
which the state of Ohio recently
We started down-when it seemed
up. AS we passed along noting how
dry it was, one of the occupants of
our car instructed us to be on hands
when dinner was announced-hav-
ing gotten the saying of the Black
smith of Ragenbach sort of twisted.
While the family is meeting and
greeting, we are writing and listen
ing. After looking the West Vir-
sinians over, we note some of them
are fatter than members of the fam
lily from Ohio. Perhaps we won't
have to rush the "front lines" after
all. And now We have had our din
ner, and no pencil we have ever
pushed would be big enough to wig
gle justice to that feast. What we
missed ON the table no doubt saved
our life. How they could eat so
III ioSh anu Tain ctli tIlS llIlIc ID q LII
terry we will try to solve next year.
In former years we have been able
to give names and address of those
present, and had thought we could
this year, but find it impossible
210 registered. This time we feel
we will do better to tell you that
friends met for the first time in 20
years, and more. The afternoon was
spent in conversing of events of days
agone. A program consisting of mu-
sic, tap and clog dancing. Valley
Bauer, former resident of Bristol
township, when he was employed by
S. E. Bone, did some acrobatic
stunts, which for the father of 12-
well we wondered about both
seems either would entitle one to a
medal. Perhaps Val should have a
crown.
The reunion was on high from
start to finish. They could hardly
get it stopped. One day was not
long enough. Prizes were awarded
as follows: To the one from longest
distance, Mr.. and Mrs. Chris Bauer,

BURKE OUTLINES
BONUS BOND PLAN
Postmaster Confers With
Heads of Veterans on
Delivery.

"Get personally acquainted with
your letter carrier before he con1es
bringing bonus bonds on the night
Of June Is, or June 16."
This was the admonition Of Post
master Vincent c. Burke yesterday
In outlining to heads of veterans or
ganizations a plan for distribution OF
bonus bonds to veterans throughout
the city.
Burke conferred at his office for
nearly two hours with veterans lead
ers, developing preliminary plans, and
set Monday afternoon, June 8, for
final conference.
The veterans pledged their full CO.
operation and planned to 60 back to
their organizations to survey the situ-
alton. They will try to find out how
many men have applied for the bonus
bonds, how many expect to cash
them, and other information.
Two Main Steps Necessary.
Postmaster Burke outlined general
plans for the two principal steps nee
essary before the veteran can cash in
on his bonus. These are: First, re-
ceipt of the registered letter carrying
his bonds, which will be delivered by
carrier to the address requested by
the veteran; and, second, certifica-
ton of the bonds, to be followed by a
check.
Veterans organizations first will
center on informing the veterans OF
the procedure to be followed in iden-
tifying themselves so as to receive
their bonds, according to the agree
ment between Burke and the veterans
heads. The principal thing empha-
sized by the postmaster will be for
the veteran to be known personally to
his letter carrier, or to get some third
person, who knows both the letter
carrier and himself, to vouch for him.
This third person Git may be the vet
erans' wife) must sign card certify
ing he is the proper person to whom
to deliver the registered mail. Vet
Grams will be asked to stay home until
the carrier arrives June Is, or June
16. at night.
The letter carrier, it was empha-
sized, can deliver the registered en-
yelope only to the addressee. Even a
member of Congress cannot have his
registered mail carrying bonds ac-
cepted by secretary.
Regular Carriers Handle Bonds.
The regular letter carriers who are
acquainted with the route will be the
ones to carry the bonds in the special
night delivery. Postmaster Burke ex-
planned, as they know people along
their routes personally.
If the veteran has no immediate
family to help him get identified, the
postmaster said. he can call on any
one in the neighborhood qualified to
serve.
