Consumption Claims Victim Among County Farm Inmates.

(Miss Millie Crane, 30 years of age, died of tuberculosis at the county farm, where she had been an inmate since Get. *3l, 1914. Prior to that time she had lived for some time with a family named Hamlet in Kankakee township. The funeral will be held here Saturday unless there is a change in plans. She has a sister at Elwood but no word has been received from her since she was notified of her sister’s death.

High School Notes. The boys are redeeming themselves in basketball. They have won their last two games and feel sure that they will suffer no more defeats. They are in splendid condition and their teamwork is good. The second team will go to Medaryville tonight. The girls’ team went to Remington last Friday night and defeated the Remington girls again. They" have an excellent team and we feel proud of them. They go to Medaryville tonight and expect to make that team look as if they had run up against a real team. Miss White was called home on account of the illness of her mother. Mrs. Ross Dean is substituting for her. Paul Worland is assisting her.

Did Not See a Robin But Heard One and Knows It.

i Rev. C. W. Post Sill’s word for anything he wants to vouch for will hardly be questioned and he is certain he heard a robin's voice this morning. He was unable to locate the red breasted harbinger of spring but will stake his reputa- : tion as a minister that he made ho mistake in interpreting the feath- ' ered Warbler. Betwixt the prognostication of the groundhog, the report of grasshoppers at Petersburg and the voice of a robin here we are surely right in line for spring weather. Even the Mds are out with a sack of “commies'’ and the game of “keeps” is popular with the long Angered lads who can pelck ’em out of the ring a dozen feet away. It is time any how to follow John Holden’s suggestion to get the porch boxes made, locate the hoe and rake and get the lawnmower in working condition.

Special Notice. I have decided to remain in Rensselaer and have opened a plumbing and tin shop the first door north of McFarland’s store. A share of your patronage is solicited. Special attention to repair work. Estimates on all kinds of plumbing jobs. Phone 466. E. W. HICKMAN.
