Parr.

Parr is still on the move Born—Sunday evening, to Mr. and Mrs. Sam Norman, a twelve pound daughter. Samuel P Hunter, of Williamsport, visited W. L. Wood, Friday and Saturday. Our protracted meeting at the Parr chapel closed Sunday evening. Judging by the amount of teams hitched to the racks Tuesday, Judy & Wood needed a few more clerks. We understand that Rev. Wilcox will preach at the Parr chapel Tuesday and Wednesday evening. We are glad to have him come back. J. N. P. is talking of building a restaurant. We suppose the people can then get some more razor soup. Frank McCurtain has been suffering with toothache for several days. Cora Fay is working for Ed Leach. Mrs. Ed Leach was called to Lee Saturday evening by the serious sickness of her mother, Mrs. Maxwell. Say, Parr is on the boom now, as there is to be several dwelling houses built yet this spring Stephenson and Porter are making a well for Chas. Rowen.
