A glance into many of the show

ings of the merchants towards
the school ma'ams, so many of
whom are in town this week.
The windows are filled with
sweets.
All a minister has to do to
make himself unpopular with his
congregation is tell the people the
truth. So long as he goes along
diplomatically, pretending that
he cannot penetrate their dis
guises and neglecting to tell them
the disagreeable truths, they
hink he's fine. People don't
ike to have their masks torn off.
In husking his corn, Edgar C.
Hann, near Saluvia found two
ears, that for number of grains
and size are hard to beat; one
measured 11! inches in length,
83 inches around the butt of the
ear, and contained 22 rows of 50
grains to the row, making a total
of 1100 grain3. The other ear
was smaller, but contained 26
rows of 48 grains each, making a
total of 124S grains.

and Mrs. D. E. Little. While in
the News office Mr. Bumgarner
called our attention to the ac
count of the killing of the two
Prough children in Trough Creek
Valley Wednesday of last week.
While at play in the kitchen dur
ing the time the mother was out
getting a turkey ready for the
Thanksgiving dinner, little Ray
mond proposed that they play
Cowboy and Indian, and suiting
the action to the word he point
ed a gun at his sister and pulled
the trigger. His younger broth
er was in line, and when the gun
"went off" both the sister and
brother were killed. Mr. Bum-
garner knew the Prough people
well, he having gone to school
with the grandfather of these
children.
