''inflexible courage and patriotism
Of the people Of Sicily" in the face
of the British air offensive against

their trip to Camp Grant, Ill. In
Indiana they ran into snow storm
so fierce they had to lay over until
the next morning, when it had
snow. They found their son, Her.

and Samuel Cordray were the

McConnells visited Abs uncle,

Ben Haines tells that rheumatism
is getting serious out around Meigs.
After w. E. Wilson and Bub Haines
had suffered with it for some time.
one of the latter's hogs took it.
Word from Chalmer and Lyle
Carnes, Bristol boys, who are in
the service, is to the effect they
like it splendid. The latter. who
was in the hospital is out and 60
ing along fine.
We found a farmer out in the
Pennsville neighborhood, where we
think we would like to work. Aft
er eating breakfast at Stockport,
going to the county seat and wait
ing on the Boss to get up and
drink his coffee, we drove to the
aforesaid home, where we found
them at breakfast.
After Is years since we started
to lease land for oil and gas, trav-
cling with and listening to men
who had made money in the busi-
ness. We find there is still some
things we don't understand. We
feel we are not giving away secrets,
when we say the most puzzling is
land owners. Out in territory
where there is production, or where
tie land has been leased many
times, many owners if they can get
rental they sign on the dotted line.
Last week we noted where quite a
number of folks over the county
(west side) signed lease wherein
they are to get $500 for gas
we'll. We don't know whether
this will be printed or not, but we
want to tell you, if you get gas
we'll which makes one million cubic
feet per day, at Is cents per thou
sand cubic feet, your one-eighth
would amount to $1S.75 per day.
1t seems queer how some folks
want to favor strangers.

Rolling Correspondent

We called at the Milligan Rest
Home, Malta. Monday of last week.
We found Maggie Heron in much
better health than she was during
the early summer. Mrs. Emma
Moore, whom we have known as
grandmother, is in very poor health.
Maggie inquired about Nellie Dev-
lit Baker, R. N, and when we got
back over in town, we met her. She
had arrived home Saturday from
an extended trip.
We are glad our friend and for
.mer neighbor, Clyde Moore, has
gone back to the shoe repair busi-
ness; glad that he will be out of
the winter blast, and because when
he does work, it is right.
Times change, and then change
again. Back in our boyhood and
our young manhood we all owned
horse and good saddle, but for sew
.eral years saddles sold about like
cold pancakes, but now J. B. Rob-
inson, harness and saddle man, Of
McConnelsville, tells us that sad
dies are again in demand. If you
have a saddle you don't need, see
Mr.. Robinson, or your scribe. We
will tell you what they are worth,
and we believe J. B. will deal hon
estly with you. The saddles are
needed, which makes us think of
it, if you have anything to sell, or
want to buy anything, the Morgan
County Democrat want ad depart
7nent will find the other party for
you, as it did for the stove at the
Iailey hotel, Stockport.
We Rolled
After long afternoon punching
wet lime through a spreader, we
arrived home to find T. V. Secrest
waiting for us. Starting early
Wednesday morning we travelled
through five townships meeting a
lot of old, and making new friends.
George McIntire and wife Zeppie.
Notice that name. The only wom-
an by that name in the county, We
believe. The McIntires own the

back in memory We supposed he
had dried up and blown away, but
he looks much younger than his
three score ten, plus. He is a resi-
dent of Columbus

Spanish-American veteran. Ellis,
like your scribe, is queer, and
proud of it. We have heard folks
laugh at him that had they the ed
ucation he has, and the nerve, CUTS,
or whatever they have, they
wouldn't know themselves. Ellis
told us about San Juan Hill. His
tory that has never been printed.
Ellis said II always voted for Ted
dy Roosevelt for what he did there. +"
Ellis could draw two pensions, but
doesn't. Queer isn't he?
1t looks now as though life might
be going to begin at sc for us. II
you don't hear from us again dur
ing the duration, dodge all bombs
and hold down to 35.
