PLEASANT GAP.
Kenneth Grove, son of Harry Grove,
of Lemont, is visiting with his grand-
mother, Mrs. John Herman. The
young man says there is no place like
grandmoher’s.
The state road gang will complete
concreting by the end of the week.
The detour will then be declared off
until such time as brick will be avail-
able. A number of men will, from ne-
cessity be laid off.
There are scarecly any potato bugs
visible in the vicinity of the Gap this
season, and even the pesky house fly
is rarely seen. Would like to hear
from some scientist as to the cause of
this agreeable incident.
Miss Nellie Benson, of Jacksonville,
was a last week’s visitor with her
cousin, Mrs. T. E. Jodon. The young
lady was very favorably impressed
with our town, as most people are
since the completion of our new state
road.
It will be gratifying news for the
many friends of Miss Helen Noll to
learn of her gradual recovery from a
very stubborn sickness, extending over
two weeks. The doctor says Miss Hel-
en is out of danger and will speedily
recover.
Farmer E. H. Zeigler, of Madison-
burg, has greatly improved the for-
mer premises of Mrs. Charlotte Eck-
enroth, here, now owned by Mr. Zeig-
ler. Nearly one hundred dollars were
expended on wall paper and hanging
of same.
0. C. Brooks, who some time ago
purchased the home of the late Mrs.
Sydney Miller, has very much improv-
ed the premises, completely overhaul-
ing the same. He expects to build an
addition to his home after which he
will enjoy an up-to-date abiding place.
Did it ever occur to you that there
is a class of talkers and writers who
do mot speak and write of that which
most absorbs their minds, not even al-
lowing it to tinge the thoughts which
they give to the public? ’'Twere heav-
en itself if every one would look upon
and talk of the pleasant side of life.
The Noll Bros. are making a much
needed improvement by way of put-
tink in sewerage and concreting a fine
sidewalk from their store to the Her-
man alley, adding greatly to the gen- |
eral appearance of that portion of the
village. They are also removing the
old, dilapidated scale house building,
adjacent to their hotel building, ‘which
was an eyesore to that portion of the
town.
Joseph Lex and wife, who had re-
sided in the vicinty of Renovo the past
three years, have returned to the. Gap
and expect to make this their future
home. Mr. Lex is a practical butcher
by profession, and expects to re-open
his up-to-date meat market in the near
future. The ‘entire’ community “is de-
. lighted over the prospect of ‘again
having a first-class butcher shop; a
thing almost indispensable in a town
of our size. It is to be hoped the pub-
lic will patronize the new industry suf-
ficient to guarantee an indefinite con-
tinuation of the same. .
I can’t comprehend why our people
don’t pay a little more attention to the
raising of blackberries. The black-
berry grows wild in many parts of the
country and usually produces good,
marketable fruit. The improved va-
rieties are far superior and can be cul-
tivated with profit. The blackberry
bears the second year; has. a genuine
couragé and knows no failure, in fact
it thrives on almost any soil. The cul-
tivated varieties yield about 200 bush-
els per acre, netting to the producer
about $250.00 per acre. That beats
wheat, or most any other product of.
the soil.
Thomas E. Jodon last week sold the
home he some time ago purchased
from Samuel Waite, to Mr. Zimmer-
man, of Howard; consideration $1800,
cash. The house is a frame one of six
rooms, and the size of lot is 130x130
feet, so that the price paid is not ex-
orbitant, since the location and sur-
roundings are quite homelike and in-
viting. The Monday following the
above transaction Mr. Jodon sold a lot
adjoining the Joseph Lex and wife
property to the latter; consideration,
$200. Mr. Jodon is a live wire—when
the cattle business grows a little imo-
notonous, he proceeds to moving real
estate. Some people are never con-
tented.
The Dunklebarger aggregation had
a very pleasant outing last Sunday.
Their destination was some miles out
from Woodward in the mountains.
They struck a very congenial summer
camp where tables and all necessary
paraphernalia were at their command.
Baskets galore with an abundance of
choice food suitable for the occasion,
were in evidence. ' The parties partic-
jpating report having had the time of
their life. All came home at a late
hour Sunday evening, delighted with
their pleasant experience. e parties
participating were, Grant Dunklebar-
er, Carrol Dean and wife, Mr. and
rs. Blair Rice and three children;
Mrs. Lewis Wolford and baby. The
lunch in the mountain is what appeal-
ed to all. It was decided that this con-
genial enjoyment would in the future
be made an annual event.
The following is a list of a jolly
bunch of our fellow citizens who had
a most enjoyable time last Sunday:
Mr. and Mrs. Seymour Miller, daugh-
ter and son, Sart and Raymond; Jus-
tice of the Peace J. D. Herman and
wife, John Herman Jr., and wife, of
Philadelphia; Earl Rimmey and wife,
and Miss Anna Rimmey. Early on
Sunday morning they proceded in their
autos westward with baskets of pro-
visions sufficient to last a hunting par-
ty a week. The proceeded about three
miles beyond Pine Grove Mills when
they took to the mountain. Their goal
was the Miller summer bungalow in
the mountains, three miles west of
Pine Grove, All report a most enjoy-
able time; a trip superior to the sea
shore. Deponent sayeth not what be-
things loud enough to be heard, and
another finding fault with the meal as
a whole. The ordeal is a trying one,
no doubt, especially to those who have
been well raised and are sensitive. It
may be the cross that has been ap-
pointed for them to bear. If it is, they
will be rewarded. Of course the board-
ing mistress is not, barred from occa-
marks. :
Well, the heated time has set in and
the average society woman becomes
excited and fidgety about going to the
sea shore. She may not know what
she wants to go for, but she knows she
wants to go, and that is enough for a
woman to know. As a rule women are
not philosophical; but there must be
an exception made in favor of sea
shore philosophy. It isn’t the cold,
hard-lined philosophy of the scientist,
nor the radiance, high colored philoso-
phy of the crank, but the plain natur-
al philosophy, such as can be found
pure in children and women. They
want to do a thing because they want
to, and because they want to they
ought to, and what they ought to do
is a duty, and duty is right; therefore,
if they want to go to the sea shore it
! is their duty to go, and it is cruel to
hinder them. However, there is a
| good deal of humbuggery about this
| sea shore fad. Before going they
| seem to try to see how much trouble
| they can make for themselves, and
how much they can annoy other folks.
| Almost any place is as good as the sea
shore, so the scenery is in marked
contrast to that of home, and the rou-
tine of duties different from those to
which they are accustomed. For some
there may be healing in sea-breezes,
but to the average landsman the for-
est winds are more grateful and in-
vigorating. So many are possessed
with the insane notion that what they
need most is a cool place, the colder
the better. So it.is for rheumatism,
cold in the head and cricks in the back.
And what is more singular, too, Is
that these same persons will flock to a
sandy beach and drift around on an
open sea and call it coolness, when, as
a matter of fact, there isn’t a hotter
| For further proof you have only to
i look at the blistered faces and squint-
jing eyes of those who have returned
from one of those cool places; “as
brown as berries and hearty as
bucks.” True, the home doctor will
have a good job getting the mother
and baby sufficiently restored to be-
gin the winter, with a reasonable pros-
pect of getting through, with strength
enough left to go to the sea shore
again next summer.’ I prefer the
{ mountains. +
