REMINGTON.

On Tuesday, October 14, art 1 o’clock occurred the marriage of Blanche Mona Currens, daughter of Mrs. Pearl Currens, and James Conrad Hicks, of Indianapolis. Judge Kellner officiated. Miss Currens, who is a ' popular and attractive young lady, was a former Remington girl and a granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Mann, of this place, • and her many friends here join in wishing her every happiness. Mr. and Mrs. Hicks will m,ake their home in Kokomo. Mrs. Joe Deno had her tonsils removed on Friday. Mr. Deno has sold his farm and is moving over -to- Fowler, where they will reside with his father until they are able to purchase a home for themselves. Mr. and Mrs. H. Long and family left here on Friday enroute for Gage, Okla., after a few weeks’ visit with friends and relatives here and at Reynolds. Mrs. Long is a sister of Marshal Geier.

Atkinson home, south of town, Saturday in honor of Bessie’s eighteenth birthday anniversary. Louis Enyart and wife were Lafayette business callers the last of the week. Rev. Warriner moved his family and household goods to Michigan City, which place will be his field of labor for the coming year. We surely hope Rev. Warriner will have the great success which has been his while he was pastor of the Methodist church here. The people of his late” congregation fully realized his intrinsic worth, as the Rev. Warriner always did everything for the betterment of his flock, building them the finest church in this part of the state and probably the largest Sunday school, thanks to his untir_ing efforts. The community can only wish that the same success attend the Rev. Warriner in his new pastorate at Michigan City. Rev. Miller, of Fowler, now occupies the pulpit vacated by Rev. Warriner. Peter Bains, who was thrown out of a freight car while moving potatoes by the careless handling of the car by the train hands, is in a very critical condition at his country home. As yet he is unable to move about. Born, to Mr. and Mrs. Roy McClaskey, Oct. 7, a son; to Mr. and' Mrs. Henry Pratt, Oct. 11, a daughter; to Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Schembs, Oct. 12, a son; to Mr_and Mrs. Peter" a daughter. Blanche Currens returned to Indianapolis Sunday . morning after a short visit with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. P. W .Mann. Mrs. D. M. Forry is quite sick this week. Miss Vesta Lucas, of Monticello, was a guest at the home of her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Easterday, Sunday.

Brooks has just finished building a fine $5,000 residence on his farm southeast of town. Lloyd Ford and family, of Kentland, were guests of his sister, Mrs. Jacob Hensler, and other relatives here Sunday. Miss Murtie Ford, of Chicago, is a guest at the Jake Hensler home.

Barnes, United States wheat director, gave public notice Thursday that he would oppose any attempt to extend to another crop the present government policy of a guaranteed price on wheat. George G. Kessler, former soldier, was convicted at Shelbyville Thursday morning of first degree murder for the death of Miss Minnie Mae Wilkins in Indianapolis last May. Kessler is making plans to appeal the case and has stated that if he is a new trial he will take the stand in his own behalf. Kessler was sentenced to life imprisonment. Following his sentence he again asserted his innocence and declared: “If I am guilty of that crime I want death—that’s how confident I am of my innbcence.”

Please examine these reports, so that you may know what your child is doing in school. - High School. The football team has been doing excellent work and the game next Saturday afternoon with the strong team from Watseka promises to be of much interest.

The county stock show is affording an excellent opportunity to the class in animal husbandry of seeing some high class stock. Mr. Woerner, instructor in agriculture, states that" the exhibits are of very high grade and very interesting. This week ends the first six-week period. Th 6 grade cards will probably be given out next Wednesday. A • new item which the report will contain is neatness, the grade being based chiefly on written work, personal appearance, condition of books and care of desk. It is hoped that this will foster a pride in the school, encourage cleaner personal habits and eventually make for better citizenship. Parents are urged to look over the report cards carefullyand to confer with the personally if possible.
