PASSING THE 80th MILSTONE. Harvey W. Wood, Sr., passed his 80 th milstone April 17th, being born near Dayton, Ohio, April 17, 1838. A celebration was planned by his wife and children, of whom all were present with, the exception of Mr. and Mrs. Will- Rishling, of Tippecanoe, who were unable to be present for the occasion on account of Mr. Rishling having sustained a broken leg. \ Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Harley Bruce and daughters; Mr. and Mrs. Paul Wood and daughters; Mr. and Mrs. Van Wood and children; Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Wood, Jr., and daughter; Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Jacks and daughter; Chauncey Wood and E. H. Wood, of Monon, a brother of Mr. Wood who passed his 82nd milstone on March 23rd. A bountiful repast was served to the guests, the table being loaded down with the many good things of life. We did not kill the fatted calf, but ate the one the other fellow killed. Following the dinner, the youngest son present in behalf of the guests, presented Mr. Wood with a very fine gold ring with a beautiful design engraved on it. If you wish to see it watch z the old gentleman as he walks your streets manipulating his hand in order that the ring may be prominent. There were also some smaller gifts given Mr. Wood by different ones. Of course the guests remained for supper, which was followed by music and dancing. Our music was the laughter and joyful voices of x our children as they ran up and down the stairway and through the rooms and out onto the lawn. The dancing was done when they were not allowed to have their own way. I think the motto of the nation should be: “Childen, Children, more children to fill up-the waste of the most devilish war ever forced upon humanity.” The older guests spent the evening in conservation and in telling bear and deer stories and of racoon hunts to the grandchildren. At eleven p. m. came ice cream and cake, after which all left for their homes with the exception of Mr. Bruce and family, who remained over night. CONTRIBUTED.

COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.
The following applicants on teachers’ examination in March took state and have been reported back as successful:—Jess M. Duncan, Helen Porter, Gladys Rogers, Agnes Kahler, Agnes Steirs, William May, Grace Warnock, Irene Howard, Millie Hoover, Ethel Johnston, Mabel McAhren, Amanda Steinke, Daisy Ott Wall, Mary Caroline Taylor, Wellborn S. Dimmett, Minnie Waymire, Earl Gross, Florence McKay, Clyde C. Duncan, A. C. Campbell, Erville K. Keesling, Zona L. Dillon, Mabel Worland, Juanita Fisher, Martha Parker. The grades, at Fair Oaks were dismissed last week at the end of a 7% months term. The high school will continue its session another half month. This school is asking for a certificate the coming year and if possible a commission. The state high school inspector, Oscar H. Williams, has recommended the school to the state board of education for 3 years accredited standing already. Mr. Williams recommended DeMotte for a certificate. DeMotte has three prospective teachers to aid in the present shortage. They are Miss Rosa Feldman, Grace Halleck and Florence Frame. This will be the first contribution that DeMotte has made to the teaching profession. With the certification of. Fair Oaks next ydar Jasper county will produce most of its own teaching force. At present the fallowing schools are able to furnish teachers: Rensselaer, Refiiington, Wheatfield, Tefft, and DeMotte. Last year 30 per cent of the teaching force came from outside of Jasper county. State Superintendent has notified all county superintendents that ’ the grade course of study will remain verbatim as it now is. All teachers are requested to take careful care of the course of study that they now have. There will be very few of them printed next year owing to war conditions. Superintendent Ellis has been instrumental in setting aside April 22-26 as “Education Week.” But very few of our Jasper county schools will be in session that week owing to our ea£ly dismissals due to Saturday teaching.

Nature Cures, The Doctor Takes the Fee. There is an old saying that “Nature cures, the doctor takes the fee,” but as everyone knows you can help Nature much and thereby enable it to effect a cure in much less time than is usually required. This is particularly true of colds. Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy relieves the lungs, liquifies the tough mucus and aids in its expectoration, allays the cough and aids Nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition. C John Morgan, of Elwood, came Wednesday evening for a visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. L.

JJ! MY BACK! The Expression of Many a Kidney Sufferer in Rensselaer. A stubborn backache is cause to suspect kidney trouble. When the kidneys are inflamed and swollen, stooping brings a sharp twinge in t.ie small of the back, that almost takes the breath away. Doan’s Kidney Pills revive sluggish kidneys—relieve aching backs. Here’s Rensselaer proof: Mrs. R. W. Burris says :“I was suffering from a steady ache in my back and could hardly move without having knife-like pains through my kidneys. . When I went to stoop over to tie ray shoes or get up out-of a chair, that pain caught me. My ached and I felt nervous and tired. I was often so dizzy I could hardly stand. My kidneys acted too often and caused me much distress. I used several boxes of Doan’s Kidnew Pills and they nut me in good shape.” Price 60c, at all dealers. simply ask for a kidney remedy—ge. Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Burris had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.
