WHEATFIELD.

Rev. Jesse Amstutz went to Ft. Wayne last Thursday, returning by the way of Berne, Ind., to see his father, who has been very sick. He returned home last Friday evening. Miss Wanda Paxton was a guest of Mrs. Wilmington last Friday evening. After examining article ten at Geneva and hearing it interpreted by experts in international law, Senator McCormick of Illinois does not seem to be so hostile toward this bright star in the league of nations. No person, that has a spark of Americanism in him, wants this nation to be a whip-cracker for the earth, but if we can set the pace toward a higher civilization—we should do it. •• Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Bush and son and the Vandercar twin girls were guests at the Bush and Clark homes at Kersey, last Sunday. Miss Nettie Hershman is clerking in the Fendig drug store, at this writing. A large number from here attended the funeral of Mrs. Shirer at Tefft last Saturday. Others would have been in attendance if they had heard of it sooner. Mrs. Shirer was a sister of Mrs. Grover Smith of this place and was well known by the writer for years. She will be missed by a large concourse of friends. Mrs. C. B. Dillman, who has been on the sick list for the past few days is much better at this writing. Quite a little rancor is being manifested here on the account of some misunderstanding between a few of the patrons and the local telephone, company. The people of Wheatfield are very tolerant and are always ready to listen to reason. Our town is an up-to-date place and wants as good a service as is handed out at other places. Upon this, all are agreed. We are of the opinion, however, that a little conference between those dissatisfied and the company would do a lot toward smoothing out the wrinkles of misunderstanding and pave the way for a future of harmonious co-operation. - Miss Ella Zimmerman of Berne, Ind., is visiting her niece, Mrs. Amstutz and family, at this writing. When a fellow gets so eloquent that he can almost make a merchant give a dollar and a, half of sugar for a dollar, he should not be hidden away in the vale of obscurity, but should be a bright and shining light in the field of oratory. Charles Duggleby and Darrel Dewey visited lady friends near Rensselaer last Saturday evening and Sunday. The Review editor, before their departure, pronounced them perfect in every respect. There cai be no come-back this time.
