the Cards could do it and even
some of the fellows who put their
chips on the Yanks weren't too bad
ly disappointed 6. so most every
one is satisfied and ready to relax
at the Ottawa fair this week after
the strain of the Worlds series +.
well the fair is one of those land
marks which stand unchanged in the
midst of change and it's an in
stitution to the oldtimers :. sort of
an annual meeting place like the
Elida Pioneer picnic s. and the
fair opened with ideal weather on
Tuesday after Mondays all day rain.
And speaking of the worlds series
Lester Niswander has new tech
nique for being on the winning side.
No, Lester didn't pick the winner
he let the other fellow do the choos-
ing and Letter took what was left.
And believe it or not, he was back
ing the winner in everyone of the
five games of the series.
Fred Gettles had leading role in
a modern version of the Good Sa-
maritan the other night. 1t all hap
pened when Rev. and Mrs. Ernest
Bigelow, accompanied by Ropp
Triplett, enroute to Lima were
stranded between Beaverdam and
Lima with an empty gas tank. The
Gettles family, parishioners of the
Rev., also Limabound, stopped to
lend a hand and towed the minister's
car to a filing station, however, not
until after their towiline needed
splicing and bumper cracked un-
der the strain.
With the grownups talking in
terms of billions, the penny is still
prominent in the thoughts of small
children. This was proven when
Jeannine Ann Benroth, aged four,
observing a Christmas box being
packed for her uncle James Benroth,
with the armed forces in India,
asked that some pennies be sent to
children of that country. Only new
pennies would do, she said, so Nelson
Herr of the Citizens bank selected
so shiny new pennies to put in the
box. We hope Uncle James won't
be mobbed by those Indian young
sters when he starts to distribute
the coins. ~sr ys.ss,

was retired again in 1919.
In 1922 the Congressional Board
of Visitors to West Point gave credit
to Gen. Tillman for maintaining the
stability of the academy when
classes were rushed through for war
service.
That such disruption OF the
course of study and such hurrying
Of the classes prematurely out of the
Academy did not destroy it," the
board reported. ''is evidence OF its
stability and is due largely to the
fact that during this period there
was in command at West Point.
Gen. I. E. Tillman, whose more than
40 years service at the Academy as
cadet. instructor and professor
formed the anchor which kept it
firmly fixed to the ideals and tradi-
tions of the past"
Immediately after his graduation.
Gen. Tillman took part in Indian
skirmishes in the West and in sur
veys of then unexplored Western
territory. In 1874 he served as as
sistant astronomer with the Amer
ican expedition sent to observe the
transit Of Venus in Australia.
Known to thousands of Academy
