Perry county peo- ple from away up that romantic val- ley, including Blaine, New German- town, Andersonburg, “and inter- mediate points, came down to jein in harmony with their Lancaster coun- ty brothers in making a success of the long contemplated reunion. Toward noon the park was com- mencing to fill with people coming in from all directions to participate in this big event. Autos from far and near were parked beneath a cluster of gorgeous maples. Young ladies faultlessly arrayed in white were promenading the beautiful lawn close to the grand pavillion, erected there by Congressman Cassel for the benefit of his prominent friends. The Mari- etta band enlivened the occasion with its fine music that was highly ap- preciated by the admiri p Athletic sports in the which old and part, were witnessed by a throng of spectators The consisted of wheelbarrow and one leged rac and ther amusements that provided out burs of laughter along the line.

Kircher, Lutheran minister of Mount Joy and recite the 32nd Psalm after which the Mari- etta Band played that soul stirring anthem, My Country 'Tis of Thee, which caused an outburst of hand- clapping and cheering. A beautiful and pathetic prayer was then offered by Rev. Miller, of Marietta. Supt. Aumiller, of the Elizabethtown Public Schools made an address, outlining Perry county during his incumbency in that county as Superintendent of Public Schools, which was listened to with enraptured attention detailing many little incidents that transpired dur- ing his regime there.

Noah Greiner happened along in a buggy. dragged the Ford to the top of the hill. — Should All Be Freed Lancaster County still has sixty- three miles of toll roads and there is no real good reason why all should not be freed. If the state and county do not take them over, there is an- other but a mighty poor way—quit aying toll. This was done over a year ago on the Mt. Joy and Mari- etta turnpike, and as a comps result the 1y had no funds with which to repair s road. Now go take a ride over it. r ——— > ———eeeee Horse Fell Into Well the Brunner farm, near Camp- ] x 14 n wn, a hor 12h1ine 1.600 \ pounds broke thru the boards on a 11 and fell to the bottom.

Farm Agent Bucher returned to Lancaster county Monday after hav- ing made a trip to Lexington county, Michigan, where he purchased the pure bred cows for the Mount Joy farmers. The county is noted as one of the largest Holstein centers in the "country and exceptionally high regis- tered cows and bulls are raised in that section.
