On last Wednesday, how-! ever, before exams started the Car- J liolo o-irlc' hacl.-ot hall tPSHTl rlpfpated i the girls' t^am of the Denmark high j school by a score of IS to 5.

Y., and as fat and in-j dustrious a toad as ever lived, is in litigation. He had eaten almost1 every potato bug on the Allen farm; when he suddenly disappeared. Allen has filed suit against Frederick j Lawrence, a neighbor, charging he j beguiled and lured Pedro to his own i bug-ridden potato fields. Exemplary damages are asked. i IX MKMORIAM. In loving remembrance of our lit- j tie girl, Christine Ritter. Born j March 10, 19DI-; died March 13,! 1916. i God gave to us a little child, A loving spirit, meek and mild; He came again one year today, And took our darling child away, j % Tho' hard to understand His will, He loved us then, He loves us still; 1 For He who doeth all things well, ! Has wondrous ways His love to tell. ! I And though we miss her voice and face, And none can ever fill her place In heart and home; the child we love.. Is safe with Christ in heaven above. 1 Dear little hands. 1 miss them so! All through the day wherever 1 go? , i All through the night how lonely it; seems j For no little hands wake me out j of my dreams. PAPA AND .MAMMA.

We will be pleased to show t'R BUSINESS, AND INTEND TO HA1 ies Store / Picking Out Faults. 9 It is a very unattractive life a man B leads who is always probing around B for the mistakes and faults of others. |l He is then spending the time that I might be better spent in looking up I his own sins and follies. But even ; K if ne nasn i any tiiere is nuuic icai profit in hunting up those of others. In this criticism of others there is always a one-sided view, and nearly always an explanation could be made that would clean up the whole affair. But it is not this aspect of the case that we mean to treat of, but to that which teaches that a person could do more good in the world by making his own life worthy than by devoting his time to hunting up the unworthi- I ness of others. There is far more, good in exemplifying virtues than by j exposing faults.?Ohio State Journal, jl * BANK STATEMENT. Statement of the condition of the Ehrhardt Banking Co., located at Ehrhardt, S.
