It coming at i this time was a distinct surprise The ■ club meeting promised to be only the ■ usual enjoyable one Some of the ■ club members plied their needles, • busily, while others, including the Misses Vernia Smith. Eetta Mallonee i and Ruth Mayer, furnished music. At a stage in the sewing. Miss Mayer announced that she had prepared no • contest, but would try to find an impromptu one to add pleasure to th* entertainment. Miss Kitson volunteered to help her. and repairing to another room, prepared. what they called “A printer* pi contest " A* Mis* Kitson had been employed in a printing establishment, there was no surprise over the selection, and none even when each guest was given * slip of paper on which was written a word in jumbled letters, from which she was to form a word. The hostess then called for each to read her word, in the order of the numbered slips, and when read these formed the sentence announcement: "Clarence and Mamie: October first, nineteen hundred twelve." a very unique and appropriate way of telling the happy secret. After extending felicitations in advance. and talking over the events at•ending the coming marriage, luncheon was served at 10:30 o'clock, the hostess being assisted by her cousin, Miss Neola Mbyer, and her sisters. Mrs. Martin Weiland, and Miss Ruth ' May r.

Miss Zelda Stevens and Miss Neola Mayer were guests be | sides the club members. Miss Agne* Gtllig will be the next hostess. WAS IT AMBUSH ATTEMPT’ Whether an actual attempt was made to ambush Harry Robison and bis friend. Mis* Cratvs. of Monroeville. Wednesday night, or whether an effort wa* made to frighten them, are questions that Sheriff Reichelderfer and his deputies have been called ui on to solve. hobison and .Miss Crates were driving irom Decatur to their home at .Monroeville shortly after midnight. Wednesday, and a b le passing a dark roadway, they were alarmed by a flash of light from the darkness at the roadside, accompanied by a loud reioi: Both Robison and the yotmg woman are of the opinion that a shot I was fired at them, but whether in finger or in jest they do not know. The sheriff was notified of the shooting by telephone as soon as the couple reached Monroeville, and Thursday began an investigation. There is no clew upon which to base an inquiry and the chances of the facts being learned are meager unless jokers were responsible and confess the prank.

Yet in this same corn belt many • corn growers waste every year almost as large I a part of the corn crop as eggs are of the poultry business. The feeding value of corn stover,. cut at the right time and properly cured, is about one-third of the total crop. If you have been letting this good fodder go to waste you should know that there is an easy way to save it. That way is to use an I H C Com Binder Deering, McCormick, Milwaukee, or Osborne The difficulty has been to harvest the corn at the right time, and quickly enough to retain all the good feeding value of the stalks and leaves. You can’t always get extra help to harvest it quickly with corn knives. With an I HC corn binder you can harvest forty acres in seven days from the time the ears begin to , glaze. Then, when the whole crop is run through an IHC linker and shredder — either Deering, McCormick, or Plano —you have secured as "nearly all of your corn crop as could be harvested. Your corn is husked clean and I you have besides a large’quantity of nutritious roughage for the winter feeding of your stock. ' Also, there is no better, quicker, or cheaper way of cutting corn for ensilage than with an IHC corn binder. See the IHC local dealer and have him I show an IH C corn binder. He will give you full information and supply you with catalogues, or, wTite g International Harvester Company of America I ncor port t ed Ft. Wayne [nd.
