SANDYSTON.
Wickhnm Pillar living alon the
River toad died at his home on K;tt
ttrday. Aged CS.years. Mr. 8ij;hir
had lived all his life in this t'lwn
but for the hist few years had been
in failing health. He Is survived
by a wife and two sons grown to
adult age.
A gentleman on his way from
Branehville to Dingnmns lost his
pocket book on Saturday. He came
back inquiring for his lost properly
and happoning to stop at the P. O.
at Laj'ton was maki:i inquiry whon
Mrs. Daniel Bevans who was pies-
ent asked him to describe it. He
did it to her sntUfaetion and receiv
ed his pocketbook after piesentinij
Mrs. Bivi it with nut relied.
It isn't often that a person finds a
twenty dollar bill, but such was the
luck of Fred Kinner while tearing
a wav the stops along the front of
tho Hainesville hotel. A Haines
ville ptrty lost a bill there of that
figure some time ngobutitis migij.y
doubtful if he get sight of this bill
The R "formed church at Hivans
will hold childrens day exercises on
Sunday eveuiug next, and Haines
ville will do tli'3 same on tho same
evening. Oonterville n not in the
procession this year aul 1 don't
know as it is any great loss.
Tho patrons of the Bjvans school
will raise a fine polo on tho sch
grounds on Tuesday afternoon, if
nothing happens, and the flig that

On Wednesday last the frame for

Miss Cora Hursh returned on Sit

Our schools are annually growing
smaller, and this year tho total
number of pupils of school age num
hers 23et. The schools individually
are small and the idea of one ceu
tral school which the present sohool
law provides for must be carried ont
at no distant day . Wo would save
money and have better schools an
the sooner the central idea is put in
effect the better for all concerned.
The question of good roads is one
that will claim attention for years
to come and while nil' are shouting
for MoAdam would it not be a good
idea to change the location of some
of our roads to shorten distance and
avoid the hills. Take for instance
the road ncross the mountain. Say
start in at Evi Brinks and follow up
the brook to near Doc. Utters,
striking the main road near Culvers
Gap, all the hills w mid be av.rided
and a road secured with not a hill
in it. If we can not get McAdam
let ns change our roads shorten dis
tances and lower our hills and some
day we may get MeAdam. Bettor
made would bring tho city resilient
here, but with the present roads
they will stoer clear of such locali
ties. The Farmers Meeting hold at.
Branehville on Siturday was sliinly
attended from the fact, partly, that
the funeral of prominent oitisiou
was set for tho same hour. Som )
fanners whose ambition it is to
succeed and keenabreast of the times
and noxious to learn newer and bet
ter methods were present and had a
very interesting sossion. It does
seem strange that the farmers as a
class should flook by thomsel vos and
continue in th same old rut nn l
frequently in the third feneration
bring np where their grandparents
began. These meetings oannot fail
to do great iocd, but the farmer
must attend if he wishes to secure
that good. The next meeting will
be held at Lafayette and now let
the farmer take aday off and attend.
The writer would be glad to be
one of a party of 4 or 6 members to
take a trip to Gettysburg some time
during June or July for a weeks
outing. By going inthis way cheap
er rates may be secured of tho rail
roads and the trip wouUV not cost a
great deal. I would be glad to cor
respond with any comrade about tho
trip. Just drop a line to Box 22
