). w. HUGHES, CONTRACTOR,
DIES AT HOME In MALTA

Funeral services for Charles w
Hughes, well known resident of this
county, who died Monday, were
held Wednesday afternoon at A
O'Clock, in the Malta NJ E. church
with the deceased's pastor, Rev
Paul I. Wachs, officiating. Mrs
Harry Harris and Mrs Harry B
Sharp sang as a duet ''Saved by
Grace" and Mrs. Harris sang "Oh
Dry Those Tears with Mr.. Marion
Fisher, accompanist. Pail bearers
were c.. B. Smith, S. B. Sheridan,
Frank McPeak, E. D. Humphrey
Doris Geddes and Fred Davis. In
terment was in McConnelsville cem-
etery. The following sketch, pre-
pared by G. B. Smith, near neigh
Dor and close friend of the deceas-
ed, was read at the funeral:
Chas. w. Hughes, an esteemed
and venerated citizen of Malta,
passed away at his home about
o'clock Monday morning, after
about two years of suffering from
asthma and heart trouble, which
at times made it almost impossible
for him to get enough breath to
live, yet he never complained and
was always cheerful, even though
suffering as he did most all the
time He was born near Eagleport.
O., on May /, 1852. He was twice
married, his first wife being Viola
Vertner, to whom one daughter
was born-Mrs. Rosetta Krumm, of
Columbus. Then after some years
he married Mrs. Emma C. Roberts,
with whom he lived happily until
death called him. Besides his wife
and daughter, he leaves step-son,
Delmar A Roberts, of Malta, and a
sister, Mrs. Harriet Humphrey,
who is the only surviving member
of famaily of 10 children. He also
leaves three grandchildren, and
three great grandchildren.
Mr.. Hughes early life was spent
as stone mason, later getting into
the contracting business as a bridge
builder, and road constructionist
which he followed as long as he was
able to work. The deceased was a
faithful member of the Malta M. E.
church, and was member of the
Independent Order of Odd Fellows.

ed so long as he was able to attend.
His quiet and unassuming attitude
did not bring him SO prominently
before the public, but he was always
interested in the things that helped
to make the community better and
life sweeter. There is little need
for dogma or rules when one comes
to record his estimate of the char
acter of Chas. w. Hughes. Not that
any man may judge another, saying
that his character was thus and so
it is only for infinite wisdom to
know character; but We may right
ly set down our beliefs; we may in
all loving kindness and tenderness
tell of those things which coming
under our observation may serve to
quicken aspiration and emulation
and SO prove that the good which
men do lives after them. His pro-
tracted illness impaired his physical
condition more than was realized,
but to his family and friends he
was always cheerful and apprecia-
tive of every kindness. He will be
greatly missed from among us. but
the high standard of life he lived
for so long will not be carried to
the grave, but will remain to en-
courage us to tighten our grasp on
the things worth while in life.

RATS Make NEST OF
$500 BILLS

Last week while enlarging
his garage, Mr.. A. M. (Gus)
Love of Malta, ran across a
rats nest, and when he went
to destroy it, he saw as he
thought, a part of some paper
currency. Upon closer inves-
tigation he discovered it was
a part of $5 bill, and in
time succeeded in getting
practically all the pieces to-
gether; delving further into
the nest he saw evidences OF
additional money, and found
the rat had used another bill
of the same denomination,
and then he discovered still,
another $5 bill which the rO-
dent had left in larger pieces

DEDICATION OF ROSE
FARM CHURCH

Sunday my wife and I motored to
Rose Farm, to visit our friends, the
C. B. Lindimore family (they with
us formerly lived at Eagleport
where we spent many happy hours
together nySunday school work. }
and to be present at the dedication
of the new church edifice lately
erected by the people of the little
village. Before the time for the be-
ginning of the services the house
was filled to capacity. and many
stood to listen to the fine program
which had been prepared: Splendid
talks, by visiting ministers; a beau
tiful solo, by Mrs. Mabel Wharf
Gardner-"God's Tomorrow; and
two fine selections by male quar-
tet from GAINESVILLE, kept the large
audience interested. But the most
inspiring parts of the program were
the talk by Herbert Brown, chair
man of the board of trustees, when
he said in substance: "We now have
a building and it is our part to keep
it sacred by our consecrated lives
and to teach within it's walls the
gospel in it's purity" and the in
spring dedicatory sermon by Gaines
M. Cook, state secretary, Ohio mis-
sionary society. His principal
thought was, instead of telling what
is wrong with the church, is to tell
what is right-saying the origin is
right, the foundation is right, the
teaching, the Bible, is right.
But the thing which impressed
us most was that which made the
church building possible. When we
reflect that the wealth of the little
village is in it's coal mine and that
the mine was open for only two
months for the past year and that
there was no architect and no skill
ed carpenter to direct the work, this
building which would be 9
credit to any rural community. is a
real marvel. The. only solution
that we can give for the accomplish
ment Of their enterprise was the
community spirit, and like in the
days of Nehemiah "they had mind
to work." and like Mary "they have
done what they could" They have
a prosperous Sunday school with 9
high attendance of 100. The Sun
day school has been meeting In the
public school building while the
church was being erected, and they
have as their goal 200 for next Sun.
day, when the school will meet In
the church for the first time. We
doff our hats to the community OF

WALKERS NEED NOT FEAR
POISON IVY

Many people seem to think that
they can get poisoned merely by
walking past an ivy plant. This is
not so, according to health organ
ization at Rockefeller Center The
oils secreted by the poison ivy that
cause the skin irritation cannot be
carried by air. The skin must make
contact with the plant itself. Good
strong Naptha soap and warm wa
ter will wash off the oils and often
if applied promptly, will prevent
poisoning. So walk in the woods If
you want, but don't touch ivy
plants.

Noah Had Cinch Job
Arranging Marriages,
Compared 70 Valley

One by one, and two by two.
THE elephant and the kangaroo .
Noah had a cinch. While it rain
ed for 40 days and 40 nights all
HE had to do was call in the ami
mails and the reptiles and they
came, two by two. Fortunately,
each two" belonged to the same
species.
Not so with Master Cupid in I'M
perial Valley The more he twangs
his tiny bow, the more complica-
tions he causes; and leaves the
county marriage license bureau to
straighten them out.
Certainly, the candidates for
matrimony arrive in two by two

and County Clerk w. j. McClelland
has the proof the freakish racial
pairings will include: Filipino, Mex

Syrian, Negro, Portuguese. Arabian
Chinese, Japanese and what have
you.
Chief fly in the ointment so far
as Clerk McClelland is concerned
is the civil codes silence, not upon
who CAN marry, but upon who
CANNOT marry. In border cases
the decision is left up to McClel-
