CLIFFORD HAM WRITES FROM TAYLOR FIELD, ALABAMA.

Among ohter things in his letter to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Ham, dated Taylor Field, Ala., April 19, 1918, Clifford Ham’ writes as follows: “I got a nice cross country trip today. We flew over Union Springs to boost the Third Liberty Loan. There were five machines which went over and I guess we are going to boost at Montgomery tomorrow. “I am nearly over the rheumatism now. I still have a little in my arm but I think that will.be all right in a few days. I am-going to town tomorrow evening, so you know I am not in such a miserable shape. “I have seen Hard rains in my life, but I saw one the other night that had them all beat. It just simply poured for about an hour and this gumbow was in fin eshape. You could hardly get out of the barracks, the mud was so deep.” Much of the letter not published had to say about the future plans of the young aviator and from it one gets the idea that he has no thought but of ilving a long, useful career.lf his parents can look with so much of prospect and happiness into the future as does this young man then even the war will not have left the sorrow that otherwise would have obtained. Let the note of happiness that comes from the camps and the fronts be returned to the brave sons full of good cheer and resolute faith in the ultimate success of entente armies.

Mrs. Dean Merica returned to her home in Chicago this forenoon. Mr. and Mrs. Meno Chupp went to Kokomo for a visit with relatives. Attorney W. H. Parkison went to Lafayette today. Mrs. E. M.

NEW GARDEN HUCKLEBERRY.

Owing to the scarcity and rarity of this new and wonderful fruitvegetable, we aid not have enough plants to supply all of our customers last year and the demand will be greater this year. However, we are going to offer a few plants this spring and those wanting to try this new fruit should let us book their order now. Strong plants, 3c or 25c per doz. Help to win the war by growing some of these new huckleberries. The plants should be treated the same aS tomatoes. They grow about 3 feet high and are literally covered with lucious fruit, black in color and about the size of cherries. Our experience has taught us that fruits should not be picked until, thoroughly ripe. Even after a light frost they, are better and cook up finer. When cooked with apple, lemon or any kind of sour fruit, they surely make fine pies, sauce or jelly and can be used for making homemade wine. You will be astonished and delighted with this wonderful, easily grown novelty. Send us your order to day—tomorrow night will be too late. Plants can be pulled up in fall and hung up in cellar and ripe, fresh fruit can be picked long after snow falls. I also would advise that you try ome of our purple peach tomatoes. They resemble some peaches so closely in size, shape and general appearance that at a short distance away they could be taken for a peach. Color, purple, blending with orange-umber. Very productive and make fine pies and preserves. Plants 3c or 25c per doz. Plants ready May first. All kinds of flower and vegetable plants and enough for everybody.

OBITUARY.

Wm. S. Stevens was born in Champaign county, Ohio, April 26, 1828, departed this life April 21, 1918. Had he been permitted to live five days longer, he would have reached the ripe old age of 90 years. He was married to Mrltilday Demory, December 3, 1868, a woman of strong Christian character, while her life was cut short in early youth, yet the influence of that life has continually been a leaven, not only in the home, but in the whole community. To this union were born two children, Mrs. Ida Culp, of Monon, and James W. Stevens, of near Medaryville. Mr. Stevens and family came to this community in 1864, having settled on the farm where his son now resides. He became ill some four weeks ago, while at the home of his daughter and at his request was removed to the hospital in Rensselaer. He gradually grew worse and he realized that his life was >fast drawing to a close and he asked to be taken to the home of his son that he might spend the few remaining days under the roof that had sheltered him and his companion. There his life so peacefully ebbed away, just as a little child so sweetly sleeps on its mother’s breast, so he too went to sleep in Christ. He early in life united with the M. E. church and has always lived a consistent Christian life. His cheery smile and kind word have helped to brighten the pathway of many a friend and while he has gone from among us, yet he will not be forgotten, and the influence of his life will be a good in the community. He was the last of a family of four children. The pride of his heart were the ten grandchildren and two great grandchildren. These with a host of friends are left to mourn their loss.
