Jim had gone to Frankfort to help Merritt Strain find a machine to do the job on the run which Mr. Jones, of Lee, had started. Fearing that he would not get back home Saturday evening rteps had been started to call off the surprise but when he arrived home in the afternoon it was decided to go ahead with the surprise and when he reached his house he was greeted by a large number of neighbors and friends. There was only one occurrence to mar the complete enjoyment and that was the discovery after it was all over that some who had been told the surprise would be postponed were not notified that it would he held and consequently were not there. Mr. Whited’s home is a good place to go to have a jolly time and all who helped Jim celebrate his 41st birthday will long remember the pleasure of that evening.

Seven Bodies Found When Submarine F-4 is Raised.
A number of bodies of the 22 men who went down with the submarine F-4, March 25th, were found Thursday in the wreckage of the interior. Only one body was removed. The others are in such a poor state of preservation that the work of uncovering them is being done slowly. None ‘have been identified. The submarine F-4, commanded by Lieut. Alfred L. Ede, and with a crew of 21 men, went to the bottom off the harbor of Honolulu, March 26, 1915, during maneuvers of the “F” squadron. It was located two days later and a diver, John Agras, of the navy, descended 215 feet, establishing a new world's record in an effort to facilitate the work of bringing the boat to the surface. Its crew, it is said, might have been alive at that time, but attempts at rescue failed, and on March 30 Rear Admiral C. T. Moore, commanding the Honolulu naval station, reported that the F-4 was in 270 feet of water, and would have to be raised by pontoons.
