Adams said Monroe County was
one of the few counties that com.
piled its annual financial report
under new classification numbers
sent out by the state comptroller's
office and which could have been
used this, year If so desired, but
must definitely be used in the fu-
ture.
Use of the new classification a.
count numbers required additional
work In compiling this report, due
to the fact that the budget had
been compiled under the old pro-
cedure, Adams said.
"The new procedure is much
simpler and Is Of material benefit
to all clerks" Adams said.

CLENDER food budgets can be
~ stretched and meals made inter-
esting by making plentiful use of
the following food-saving tips:
Poultry and meat leftovers should
be stored as quickly after their
serving as possible to prevent spoil
age. When large enough pieces are
available, serve sliced or heat in
sauce or gravy.
Small chunks and pieces OF meat
go well in hearty salads. quick
stews, hash or spaghetti dishes.
Tag ends of meat and poultry can
be utilized in omelets. stuffed pep
pers or tomatoes, croquettes, etc.
Use a food grinder to get them
easily into small pieces.
Bones and small pieces of meat
can always be simmered with green
or yellow vegetables, potatoes,
noodles, beans or rice to make
hearty, nourishing soups.
Save your drippings and refrig-
crate them. They're tasty to use
for sauteeing white or sweet pota-

KNOW YOUR
SOCIAL SECURITY

Social Security insurance dol
lars. go to more than l4,300
people in this 10-county area

Youmans, manager of the Zanes-
vile social security office said
today,
Over $lO,063.OO old-age, and
survivors insurance monthly
benefits are being paid residents
OF Noble county, according to
Mr.. YoumanS.
These people of all ages are
receiving benefits because re-
tired or deceased wage Garner
was mindful of his social secur-
ity account, Youmans declares.
He reminds workers that their
social security account could be
their largest cash asset. 1T is
cash in your future, either as re-
tirement or survivors benefits
Your social security card is the
key to this cash asset. Use it,
don't lose it," Youmans urges.
Everyone working for wages
should be sure his employer has
q record Of his name and num-
ber as it appears on his social
security card. This enables the
employer to make accurate re-
ports. Every three or four
years" says Youmans. "ask the
Social Security Administration
for a report on your wage record.
Post card forms requesting a
statement of your wage record
ere available at your local field
office. You pay as much as $54
q year for social security 50
make your money count"
IF your employer deducts
more than $54 from your wages
for social security, you should
see HIM and get your records
corrected. If you have worked
each deduct up to $54 for social
for two different employers,
security tax. In this case any
amount over $54 can be claimed
for refund on your income tax

Recently a proposal has been
made that the remains of John
Gray be moved to Caldwell to

square that surrounds the

that a monument be erected

thought he was the very last
member of Washington's army
to survive. Some thorough and
able research on the subject
seemed to support the belief.
His crumbling graveStone pays
him the tribute of being "the
last of Washington'S compan-
ions"
But it is now believed that
he was outlived just seven
days by one Daniel T. Baker
man of New York. The Ma
tional D. A. R. lists in Wash
ington indicate that Baker
man was the last pensioner of
the Revolution to die-April
5, 1868.
There is no doubt, however
that John Gray was the last
survivor Of that very consid-
cradle number of veterans of
the Revolution who migrated
to the Ohio country and
established homesteads here as
legacies for their devotion to
the early cause of freedom.
JOHN GRAY was only IL
years old when the shot was
fired at Concord that was
heard around the world. His
father left his home, wife and
family of eight children to
strike his blow for liberty.
When the elder Gray fell in
the Battle of White Plains,
John, his oldest son, stepped
into his place at the age of l6.
He took part in several skir-
mishes, battles and expedi-
tions, winding up at Yorktown.
He left Virginia in 1895 be-
cause he was denied the right
of suffrage in that state be-
cause he did not own property.
He settled first in the part of
Virginia which later became
West Virginia and then moved
on to Ohio just about the time
it became a state $50 years
ago. He built a cabin on Duck
Creek in what is now Noble
County and there he lived the
rest of his life, being survived
by a daughter. In his last years
he was accorded a $500 annual
pension by Congress.
John Gray was a religious
man and an educated man.
AS boy he had walked four
miles to attend a school con-
Quoted by private tutor IN
his native Virginia. He was
always a good-tempered man,
according to all accounts, and
even when on the borderline
of proverty did not protrude
the fact that he had fought
for his country and was being
neglected. 1t was through the
intervention of friends that he
received a belated pension.
James M. Dalzell, who serv-
ed in the Ohio Volunteer In
fantry in the Civil War, later
settling in Caldwell, the
county seat of Noble, devoted
much time and energy to the
immortalizing of John Gray.
He labored to establish his re-
cord in the war, he wrote arti-
cles about him which were
published far and wide, COM
posed poems on several occa-
sionS paying glowing tribute
to his hero and died staunchly
believing that John Gray was
the last surviving veteran of
the Revolution
IT is A PITY that there is
not a suitable monument to
John Gray. Many Revolution
ary soldiers lie buried in Ohio.
It is said that more are buried
in some of the old graveyards
in Ohio than in any of the
cemeteries in the states in
which the war was fought.
This was because of the great
migration of veterans to the
Ohio country in which they
transplanted their love for
freedom.
Hiramsburg, near the site Of
John Gray's grave, is listed
as a village of 25 inhabitants,
but it's doubtful if that many
persons reside there today. 1t
