Morgan County Democrat. (McConnelsville, Ohio) 1886-1943, 1940-11-28

born in the township, or county,
came with her parents to the farm
| where her death occurred, in young
girlhood. Somehow we could never
| think of her as an old woman, with
her quick wit, and always interested
| in the welfare of neighbors and
| friends. AS we looked on her silent
form we found that even then she
| did not look old. Thus ended a
| life well spent, "a work we'll done.
Interment was made in McConnels-
vile cemetery.
| We are sorry to learn that the
Bethany football team of which
our friend Dick Roberts is a mem
| ber, lost two games and the team
didn't get the extra vacation time.
| Let us tell you if you have any
| doubt as to our ability to tell good
! cheese, as we assumed in our re-
] cent write-up of the cheese factory,
at Bremen, try some of it at the
Glover Farm store. Mr.. and Mrs
Smith will be glad to sell you, and
you will be glad you bought
! What Do You Think?
In listening in we learn that in
| our high school we learn in the
l HOluC CCoIOLllCo GLASS tHG IGdCIl0TS
insist that girls must buy high
| price goods to make dresses and SO
on. Children whose parents are
pOor-even those who are working
on WPA and SO on, are required to
buy the same price goods as do the
folks who have much of this world S
goods. Then when they comply
| with the demands of the teachers
when they wear the clothing some
| of rich children call attention to
the fact their parents are on re-
lief. Do you know how to remedy
this?
No Bananas-Or Lamp Wicks
Last week, lady who has not
had chance to connect up with the
| high tension line put in quite bit
| Of time running from store to store
hunting lamp wicking, and gave it
up A neighbor continued the
search with better success. Under
the new order in our stores, we
don't know whether to go to the
hardware-or clothing store for a
| laxative, which reminds us of Gre
NOR pills and DR.. H. l.. True. We
wonder if the daughters have the
formula.
Some Of our readers misunder-
stood us in last weeks issue. We
haven't moved in with any live
stock, and won't, the Lord willing.
We wish to pay our respects to a
man whom we are glad to call
friend, whose preaching not only
suits us, but his actions on the
street, or wherever he walks and
talks. We feel we could better tell
you what we mean in the words of
a lady whose name we know not,
who said, IT never meet him that
he does not say something worth
while" We wish this might be fit
ting to all preachers-but we have
been telling about Rev. L. S. Wees,
pastor of Grace and Pisgah Metho-
dist churches. Hear him.
Mrs. Pearl Radcliff returned from
Columbus Wednesday of last week
with the discouraging word that her
sister, Mrs. Matte Lesco, was
thought by the specialists not able
to undergo the only treatment they
feel would benefit her.

When our young friends Guy Rad
cliff and Dick Mcconnell, graduated
from high school, we stood at at
tention, wondering what they would
do. We didn't have long to wait,
as they soon found their places at
the Finley packing plant, where
they got an increase in wage before
their apprenticeship period Only
last night Guy gave US a demonstra-
ton of linking sausage, which leads
us to wonder why we can't find a
column worth while at this home
plant, which has grown from a
small beginning to one of the i'm
portant industries of our county, of
which few of even Morgan county
folks know much. Perhaps we may
get an invitation to write a day at
the Finley packing plant.
No Rustling
Just when we were about to write
about cattle rustlers visiting Bris-
tol, we learned that what was at
first thought to be robbery, as stat
ed in the Sunday papers, was some
thing else. 1t was thus: l.. T. Jen-
kins has pasture rented on the Mil
Ter brothers, Massey farm. The
Millers had two head of cattle in
the same field. Ellis Miller got
them out. His brother Dwight, who
is better acquainted with tractors,
and other farm equipment than
with the stock on their farms, haul
ed Mr.. Jenkins away. When the
mystery was solved, everybody was
happy-but Dwight, who will be
called on to set 'em up.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ellis Miller, Coal
Hill, were callers at the home of
the latter's parents, Mr.. and Mrs l..
T. Jenkins, Sunday afternoon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Everett Swallow and
son returned to their home at AL
lance, Sunday, after a visit with
the formers parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
e. G.. Swallow, and other relatives.
Mrs. Cassie Whitehouse is report
ed seriously ill this Monday morn
ing, with acute indigestion.
