CENTURY MARK i I (CONTINUE* FROM PAGE ONE) called upon her Friday, she had not left her bed for the day, but instructed her granddaughter ’to tell the man to wait, because she would lie up Immed.'I ately.' | "In about five minutes the granddaughter came down stairs and said that Mrs. Ferry was ready to receive an interviewer. Then the granddaughter explained that me active little wo man had dressed herself, conducted her own toilet, and in doing so walkedacros s her room several times. letter Mrs. Ferry tole the Interviewer that she liked to dress herself each morning, because of the exercise from the operation. “She eats regular meals, enjovs 'them all, insists upon fat meat for din>ner and declares that she has no specI ial reasons to offer why she has attained the age of one hundred years. She said that as a joung woman she suffered considerably from stomach trouble, but as a whole, she never paid much attention to her health or physical well-being. She lived as other members of her family lived, and she is not a faddist. She enjoyed the daily mode of living that people in this age enjoy and yet at the age of one hundred years her memory is vivid and her activity absolutely surprising. “She is looking forward keenly to the festivities of next Thursday, her one hundredth birthday anniversary, and confided to the newspaper man that she expected to heartily enjoy herself.” o GREAT ADAMS COUNTY FAIR Art Smith, Famous Bird Boy Booked For Decatur Fair Art Smith, the intrepid bird boy, whose wonderful death defying feats have made him the only recognized rival of Lincoln Beachey, conceded to be the craziest man in the flying game will thrill the thousands at Decatur’s big Fair on October 1. and 2, Smith will open his entire bag of tricks, looping the loop, flying upsidedown, doing the upside down spiral and fig ure eight the vertical volplane and a score and one other feats that make one shudder to think of even. Smith although a boy in years is really one of the pioneers of the game, having fashioned his own flying machine five years ago and having flown it successfully over a big fair circuit. The Decatur managment is to be congratulated for securing this great attraction for the coming fair, as Smith was booked practically through the entire fall season on the big city circuits and was induced to fly here only because of its being near his home town, Fort Wayne. This will the first visit of an aero plane to Decatur and Adams county and in Smith local people will see one of the world’s really great flying men, the first crack out of the box. He uses a biplane In all his flights and is one of the first men ever to accomplish the loop-the-loop in this character of machine. Beachey first accomplished the stunt in a monoplane and for months it was claimed that it could not be done in a bioplane, because the double type of machine is more unwieldy than the single plane device. o RESOLUTIONS IN MEMORIAM. To the Officers and Comrades of Sam Henry Post, No. 63, G. A. R„ your committee on resolutions and condolence, in memory of our deceased comrade, Lorenzo Cherryholmes, respectfully submit the following:

It is with sadness that we record the death of our comrade, who departed this life the 3rd inst. His loyalty to his country and his comrades, his faithful performance of Christian duty to his church and as chaplain of our port, leads us to believe that he has gone to join the Grand Army of the Redeemer in the eternal sunlight. As a soldier his record is untarnished. He enlisted as a private August 22, 1862, participating in many hard-fought battles of the Army of the Potomac, and was discharged as sargeant of his company at the close of the war, Therefore, be it Resolved, That by the death of Comrade Cherryholmes this post mourns the loss of a comrade, esteemed by all, the country a brave defender, and the community an honorable citizen, and that we, as a post, tender our sincere sympathy to the bereaved family in their sorrow. Resolved, That our post colors be draped in mourning and that a copy of these resolutions be sent the bereaved family, recorded in our post records and a copy be furnished each of the city papers, with request for publication. Respectfully submitted. T. W. MALLONEE, J. R. PARRISH, J. D. HALE, Committee on Resolutions.

Bat it was not a shrinkage of American ™ ki , n 6- 7’? result of the desire of European tn. Ir.ide then securities for cash. Cash is a handy thing in war tines. War means ordinarily peaceful merchants shooting guns at normally peaceful farm hands; factory operatives busily engaged in sabering machinists; baker boys galloping mauly auout on horses which ought to be hauling bread. Business and War have nothing in c °m m on. W hen war stalks abroad Business goes elsewhere, and money is the boon companion of business. When Europe sold back to us millions of dollars of securities it was in an effort to obtain money with which to later purchase from us one of the things Europe must have. Europe is an o d customer of ours, but she is ex to buy now more than ever before, and her $300,000,000 income from globe trotting Americans will probably be missing this coming year. Meanwhile, Europe has been comcelled to shut up her own shop. There are new faces looking at us across our counters and fingering our goods. Europe used to number them among her customers. Let’s straighten up the counters and dust off the shelves. It looks as if business was going tb be brisk and we might as well he ready. And if it is necessary to hire extra help to look after trade, we’d better start looking for it now. ' ■ . _ .. . .
