impure or unclean, your hogs will

We hadn't time to see much, but
have an invitation to come again
which we hope to do some day, al
which time we may be able to see
and learn more. We want to thank
Dale and Mr.. Harris and all for 8
day of pleasure.
We were surprised and pleased tc
receive card from our friend and

Yellow Springs, Ohio. l.. E. says in
substance that he likes the way VIC
lead the pencil around over the
pages. He inquiries about Rev. j

Reverend is on his second year at
Old Washington. Come to think of 1t

True Devotion
While some of our Bristol cor
respondents will tell of the funeral
of Louise Wilson, we beg leave to
tell our readers, that part of you
who have not like the writer, and
do not know the story, we are tell
ing. A true story OF, the devotion
bestowed on her by her sisters, the
wonderful care and the sacrifice
they made during the more than 90
years of invalidism of their sister,
all Of which was done uncomplain-
ingly. Very few are ever called to
a service equal to the one they
have performed SO nobly. Methinks
the stars in their crowns will shine
undimmed through the countless
ages of eternity.
Arthur Needles and family expect
to move this week to the D. L. Jen-
kins place on Bear run, known to
oldtimers as the Wes Ashton prop
erty. Joe expects to move back to
the coal bank farm.
It seems that one of the county
candidates got the admonition "Vis-

Promising to get her property back
from the old age pension depart
ment in exchange for two votes.
When we looked it up we found the
property is on the tax duplicate for
$10O. If the department took the
property over they must have
thought it was $1,10O. Oh! My!
We don't know whether to cry-or
laugh.
Bristol 1910 and 1918
Sixty-five men of the 21-36 class
answered the questions asked OF
them at Meigs, Oct 16, 1910, and
We are informed that only one OF
these was from outside the town
ship. 1t was thought that there
were three who registered outside
the township. In the first register,
1917-62 registered for Bristol.
We have asked several folks how
many men Bristol was accredited
with. We have the following names.
Won't you help us by giving us the
names of any we have omitted-or
if we credited any to the township
who were accredited elsewhere. tell
us so that we may leave correct
record for coming generations: Earl
Clark D. Cotton, Lyle D.
Ray, E. c. Henderson, Chas. c.
Hale, Samuel Hale, G. L. Swallow,
Marshall D. Wheeler, Howard p.
Hamilton, R. H. Ray, Chief Frank
Ford, Robert H. Ray, Mack Moore,
Owen Marshall and Sears Gorrell.
In spite of all that has been and
will be said up to and including
Nov. 5, soon thereafter all the de-
feated candidates will resume their
positions in their respective COM
as good citizens. Those
who take their defeat with a smile
and congratulate the winner will to
our way of thinking be on a higher
plane than those who do otherwise.
It has put a lot Of money in the
tills Of printers, advertising men
and so on.

er person should take over the work
so that when our fingers become
numb in death, they will be gather

tion second to none. Why not try
it?
Report is current that some real
estate has changed hands-but we
are unable to verify the report.
After many days of dry weather
it rained most of the day Saturday.
We were informed by friends who
watch the moon that the rain was
due Wednesday. 1t was welcome
nevertheless, as wells and cisterns
were getting low.
