AS EVERYBODY knows, one of the important pleasures’ of a varaI lion trip is talking about it afterwards. It is a rare person who has bo desire to tell his friends what a i 'rand” time he had, of the places I he visited, the beautiful scenery, the | Interesting people he met, and varies entertaining experiences. If he is i good raconteur with the ability to make word pictures, his friends are likely to listen for quite a while, but, «the other hand, if he doesn’t know [ how to tell his story interestingly, lie may have to give in to bored i i'eah's,” or a counter attack from I jis listener who, the chances are, has ieen on a vacation trip himself, and wants to tell his story. However marvelous and interesting a trip is, and however w’ell one ,s able to describe It, in the course j if time the memory of it becomes | lira, too vague to be inspiring any ' onger even to oneself. How much are you now able to tell about scenes, people and places on your first auto .oar, say fifteen years ago? There is only one sure way to keep hese memories from fading and that s to take a camera with you on your trip and take pictures. With a camira, at least a half dozen rolls of film I ind a determination to take advan- | :age of all picture-taking opportuni- i l .les, you can create a picture story 1 j if your trip that no words, written

or spoken, can tell so vividly. >nd it will live. Yon always will enjoy looking at these pictures—and. as to telling the story to your friends —be sure they will always be ready to look when they won’t listen! Too often it happens that when starting on a vacation trip, he who has a camera neglects to take it along, or, if he does, too often fails to take advantage of picture opportunities. For example, it is easy, when one is rolling along the road in an automobile to let an interesting or beautiful scene go by without stopping the car. Make up you mind before you start on a vacation tour, w'hether by automobile or otherwise, that you are going to bring back a picture record of the principal and most interesting things you see; and tell any traveling companions without a camera that when you see a good picture I they must give you the chance to get it. Remind them that this is a pleasure trip. and. especially if you go by auto, that this business of whizzing by the scenery just to get to the next place in the quickest time is silly. Impress upon them that stopping to record an interesting picture will be worth incomparably more in permanent value than the few minutes gained at the end of a day’s journey. Get the pictures as you go. JOHN VAN GUILDER

MARION ELZ EV TO BE HIINOREO Local Watchmaker Oldest Member Os M. E. Church In Service Marlon Elzey, venerable watchmaker of Decatur, and oldest member of the Decatur Methodist Episcopal church in point of conI tinuous membership wMI be honored Sunday morning during the i special service in memory of the early Methodist ministers and laymen of the Deoutur church. Other members with long years I of service in the local church are Dayton Hill. Mre. Samantha Nichols, Mrs. John Niblick, Mrs. E. N. Wicks, Mrs. Sarah Schafer, Mrs. Sarah Krick. Mrs. A. J. Smith, and Dr. P. B. Thomas. in the year 1870 Mr. Elzey was received on probation in the M. E. church here during the ministry of the Rev. H. Wilkinson. He attributes this action to his love of music. His invitation was extended to sing in tile choir. He presented an organ to the church, which is etill usable and gave the dock, still hanging on the wall. Attending the M. E. Sunday School in the mornings he assisted the Evangelical or “Albright’s” Sunday School in the afternoons. In 1874 he united with the Evangelical church and remained there until his marriage to Miss Cornelia Mann, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Justin Mann. (Mrs. Mann was the daughter of John Reynolds. co-founder of the city of Decatur.) According to an old membership record now- in the possession of the Rev. H. R. Carson, pastor of the M. E. church, he came into full membership in 1879. He passed his 67th anniversary in the church last March. These same records show that Dayton Hill and Samantha Nichols were received on probation by the Rev. J. B. Carnes in February 1879, but did not come into full membership until a few months later. A. D. Suttles heads the committee which will make arrangements for transportation for the older members of the church at the , special program Sunday morning. o NEW HARVESTER REDUCES COSTS, CUTS 47 CROPS Minneapolis. (U.R) -A now machine, by which cost of harvesting may be cut from 19 to 2 cents a bushel, has been announced here. The harvesting unit will cut and j thresh crops in one operation.

WILL RESEAL CORNER STONE Ceremonies Will Be Held At M. E. Church Sunday, July 5 In order to give all organizations lan opportunity to examine the records found In the corner stone of tile Decatur Methodist Episcopal church, tlie box recently taken from the stone will not be resealed until Sunday morning, July 5. The contents of the Imix have been displayed at the entrance of the church, and much interest has been shown in them. The Rev. H. R. Carson, pastor of the church, said today that it will >be impossible for all of the persons desiring to make coppies of the records, to complete them for several weeks. July 4 will be the 55th anniversary of the dedication of the church. It was believed appropriate to reseal the box in the stone on the following Sunday. The church was remodeled in 1897 and the picture below shows the church as it looked at that time. The remodeling included the addition of the Sunday School, rooms at the south end of the building. The regular church services will be held on July 5 at 9:30 o'clock and will be in the nature of a patriotic program. Sunday Schisil will be held al 10:30 o'clock. Then a short ceremony will be held at the cornerstone for the resealing of the box with its contents. The program has not yet been arranged. However, it is (planned to invite George Wemhoff, whose father, Barney Wemhoff, placed the corner stone in place 55 years ago, to assist in placing the block in place. The box, which was originally built by John Brock, will be resealed by his son, Charles Brock. The members of the Knights of Pythias, the Masonic and the 1. O. O. F. lodges, will be invited to participate. These organizations were all present at the original ceremonies. —o To study wanderings of white seals, which are seen only in the White sea for about three months each spring, Russian scientists plan to capture a number, paint them with black stripes and affix tags to their tails and release them.
