Curfetc Ordinance Asked Eor.—Ball Team Organized.—Arrivals and Departures.—Other Items of Interest

Charles Dluzak residing four miles north-west of Remington buried a little two year old child in the Catholic cemetery near here last week. The funeral was held from the Catholic church of this place. The death was caused by fever.

Rev. W. S. Peter of the Presbyterian faith moved with his family last week to his farm near Monticello. Rev. Peter had lived for many years on his farm in Gilboa township, Benton county, which he sold some time ago, and bought his present home. He had administered to charges in Benton, Carroll, Clinton, Montgomery and White counties for many years past. Himself and excellent family will be greatly missed from Remington and vicinity. There are petitions being circulated here, asking the board of town trustees of Remington to adopt a curfew ordinance. We are of the opinion that this should be done without delay, as this town has many young people who should be kept off the streets at unreasonable hours of the night. As it appears that parents are lax in their control, of their children some other authority should be called to enfoi’ce the objects of this law. We understand that Mr. A. M. Coen of Illinois will soon occupy the Lally property on South Ohio street. Mr. Coen owns a good farm near Remington, and near the county line between Benton and White counties. We are glad to welcome Mr. Coen as one of Remington’s citizens.

Bert Edwards of Benton Co. has purchased property in the town of Remington and will soon be resident among us. The Press says, pass a curfew ordinance and raid gambling

“hell’s.” We second the motion. Mr. Elmer F. Emery who has made quite an extended visit to Ohio friends, has returned to Remington to *look after his farming interests near here. Mr. Emery has an excellent farm. Luther Patton, son of congressman Patton of Woodward, Oklahoma, has been visiting with Remington friends for the past week or two. Luther is looking well. He will probably return to Oklahoma in a few days w T here he has a position as cashier in a bank there. James N. Green who has been sick for some time past, is now 7 reported to be in a worse condition than at any previous time. We sincerely trust that he/will recover. Several new telephones have been put in during the past week.

We have an excellent telephone service here. The Remington boys have recently organized a base ball team for the coming season. This team will be known as the “Balcom’s.” The DemOrest Medal contest at the Christian church last Monday evening was declared off. Send your address to H. E.
