WHAT A SOLDIER THINKS OF ON NEARING U. S. HARBOR.

People everywhere read some time ago of the first outburst of enthusiasm of i elurn ing YaTiksrasTitey" were greeted in New York harbor by the “welcome” tugs as they steamed closely around the big transport laden with the victorious troops and the cry of “When do we eat?” left many doubts in the minds of the welcoming committee as to whether such an outburst really expressed what was innermost in the minds of Uncle Sam’s gallant warriors. It remained so until the Cunard liner Pannonia arrived in front of the much looked for statue of liberty on June sixth. The two giant welcome tugs greeted the arrival of the steamship from Marseilles. From one of the tugs floated a banner covering the entire starboard side, bearing the inscription, “Welcome home Col. Sidney Grant.” Colonel Grant had been decorated with the French Legion of Honor just before his departure for the states and the people of Rochester, N. Y., which is his home town, turned out in force to offer their kindest welcome. Directly beneath the banner was a small placard tacked to a broom stick and waved frantically by a pretty Yank maiden bearing the words, “Welcome home Corporal Hatton.” After exchanging the usual salute the tug bore in close to the side of the transport and oranges, candy and newspapers . were being thrown aboard the transport by the huge crowd draping the railings of the tug. A horny fisted gob stood close to the forward railing as the tug veered out dangerously close at times to the transport’s side and a lanky doughboy, taking advantage of the lull in the cheers and excitement of the greeting, leaned far oyer the side of the rail and yelled with all his lung power to the bluejacket: “Say, who in hell is ahead in the American league?” a •

Lillian Baker returned today to Lafayette after a visit with Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Smith. Mr. and Mrs. John Moore and Mrs. B. J. Moore and daughter, Elizabeth, are spending the day in Monticello. Mr. and Mrs. V. P. Hope, of Morocco, went to Columbus, Ohio, to- '■ day for a visit. I I The daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Crownover, who lives some eleven miles .north of this city, is dead. She was about two and onehalf years of age. The funeral services will be held at the home of the parents Wednesday and interment will be made in Smith cemetery.

EDUCATIONAL ITEMS.

The township commencement in Gillam township was held at Independence church last Monday night. A large crowd gave expression to a! genuine school sentiment in that township. Local talent furnished the music for the occasion. The address was delivered by Prof. Herbert Thurber, of Purdue university. The Rev. G. H. Henslee, of Medaryville, gave the invocation and benediction. Superintendent M. L. Sterrett presented a class of six boys and six girls with diplomas. Those receiving recognition into high school the coming year were: Raymond Ballard, Russell Bible, Gertrude Craver, Sara Coppess, Earl Greiger, Eva Guild; George M addox, Harold Poisel, Ruby Pullins, Roy Robinson, Laura Rayburn and; Marie Smith. One of the above graduates, Harold Poisel, has an enviable record which challenges any record in Jasper county. He has attended the West Vernon school for eight years without being absent or tardy for that entire period. This remarkable record should be awarded with a gold medal, but the state board of accounts has ruled that public money cannot be so spent by trustees. This is a clear case where the ruling of the state board should be overridden for the sake of honorable recognition much above the ordinary. Township Trustee B. F. LeFevre was very proud, of the graduating class, over whose exercises he very ably guided last Monday night. Misses Schoonover and Miller, former teachers in Gillam township, were present for the exercises. Mrs. Bess Hullihan and Nellie Record, who taught in Gillam last year, were present. Elizabeth Budd and Alpha Kerlin are attending school this summer. They were on the teaching force in that township last year.

WEDDING RING LOST 28 YEARS IS FOUND.

Twenty-eight years ago Mrs. Edward Brady, living east of Lafayette, handed her wedding ring to Marvin House, present county recorder of Tippeyanoe county, while she was putting on her gloves. Mr. House dropped the ring into his pocket and later lost it while working in a field. This spring Harry Northrup was harrowing in the same field and found the ring, which was apparentlynone the worse for wear, except for the loss of some of the smaller ruby settings.
