We enjoyed the hospitality of
Howard Neideigh and wife over at
their beautiful country home lo-
cated near Hossler's Church on
Thursday last. When we landed we
came into contact with five painters
who were putting the finishing
touches on his residence. Howard
Neideigh is conducting quite an ex-
tensive poultry emporium and is al-
ways amply supplied with eggs in in-
numerable quantities. He had the
misfortune of losing one of his
valuable horses last week through
colic of which he has our deepest
sympathy.
Quite an exciting scene transpired
around here on Sunday morning
when a horse belonging to Abraham
Waltz was turned loose to eat the
surplus grass that was growing to a
certain extent along the tracks of a
branch rail road that runs past our
home to the oil station located a
short distance above. There is a
wooden trestle that spans the track
near here. The horse after meander-
ing around had gotten onto the track
and was under the impression that
he could cross these ties that were
laid thereon when he met a serious
mistake and fell through with his
legs extending below. The hasty
summons was called by Christian
Stauffer and a force of men appeared
on the scene with block and tackle
and succeeded in extricating him
from his perilous position "and
placed him again on terra firma with-
out any serious results.

Despite the bad weather, on Sat-
urday evening, the meeting of the
alumni association of the Maytown
high school was a grand success in
every way, and the most largely at-
tended meeting for years. Many

Henderson; president's address of
welcome, David Witmer; instru-
mental duet, Misses Keller and Boll;
reading, Miss Helen Harter; pre-
sentation of class of 1920, Miss
Emily C. Longenecker; vocal duet,
Harvey and David Lutz; reception of
class of 1920, David Witmer; vocal
solo, Mrs. John S. Simons.
Following this the business session
was held and the following officers
chosen: President, Carl Minnich; vice
president, Henry Haines; secretary,
Isabelle Endslow; executive com-
mittee, Harry Frank, Helen Harter,
Josephine Beshler. There were 126
| people present. Immediately follow-
ling the business session, a banquet
