OBITUARY " Once"aVca!n theDeath Angel has paid dnother visit in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Nathaniel K. Llndsav and took awav their lovinsr husband and father fid we are left in our solitude missing Mm so sndlv. the loved companion, helper and sharer of our joys and sorrows ami how oh. how we shall miss him. But the Lord srlveth and the Lord tflkfth away. Blessed be the nnme of the Txrd. Nnthaniel K. Lindsay was born Jn. . 1S41 at Oreen Vlllaa-e. Pa., and died Mnv 1. 1921. at his home In Eaton. Ohio, being at the time of his death. SO vears. 3 months and 27 days of age. He leaves to mourn his departure, a widow, one son. Marvin Lindsay, of South 13th street of this city, and a .laughter. Mrs. Frank Case, of South 3rd street, also of this city, also other relatives and friends. Oft within our dear old homestead, As the shadows gently fall. While the sunlight touches softly One sweet fare upon the wall. We would gather close together And in hushed and tener tone. Ask each other's full forgiveness Vor the wrong that we had done. Now you'll wonder why this custom . t the ending of the dav; Then our voice will quickly answer, It was our father's way. Sometimes when our hearts grow weary. Or our task seems very long. When our burdens looked too heavy And the right seemed Just so wrong; Then we could gain a new fresh courage. As we would rise and brightly say, We must do our duty bravely, 4 Vor that was our father's way. Now we'll keep his memory precious. And we'll never cease to pray. And at last when lengthening shadows 'ark the evening of Life's dnv. Ho will find us waiting calmly To go home our father's way. By Emma Newlin, 16 Po. 3rd.

MELLON'SJOB (Continued from Page One.) by his dashing energy succeeded In f oating them, that was the ideal char, acter of a war time secretary of the treasury. But the necessary result of this war time haste and these improvised emergency situations on a huge scale has been to leaye to Mr. Mellon a heritage of a huge sprawling mess. Facts Big Job. Not merely is the treasury, as Mr. Mellon comes to it, a Job of more than five, times the magnitude than any other secretary of the treasury ever had,- in addition to that, necessarily much of the personnel that he flndrunder him is new. Many of the busi ness men who came to help in the treasury department while the war was on, left as soon as the armistice came. Many of the permanent beads of bureaus and departments, who are excellent men and who had their work thoroughly and minutely organized, unavoidably had the splendid which they had built up thrown into confusion by the size and complexity of the additional tasks, thrust upon them as an accident of the war.

---J ISLAND OF MANHATTAN ONCE SOLD FOR DRINK RENTS $133 PER FOOT (By Associated Press)NEW YORK, May 7. Manhattan Island, once sold by an Indian for $24 and a few drinks of firewater, has become so valuable that a tinty plot stretching only 31 feet along Broad way "recently was leased for an annual -rental of about $133 a square. foot, real estate men said this was the highest figure for which land was ever rented here. The site is at Broadway and Thitryfourth street, and extends about 5 feet along the latter. Several years ago a department store wished to buy the corner plot, having procured the land on both sides as the site of a skyscraper.' " But ' the owner would not sell, ven for $1,000,000, and the big store had to erect Its home around the small building. To Build Skyscrapers. A four-story structure, housing on the ground floor a busy cigar store, still remains on the valuable corner lot. on all sides lofty buildings rear their bulks of steel and stone. The new lessee, who will pay $3,500,000 for rent, taxes and other expenses over a twenty-one year period, plans to erect a narrow skyscraper on the triangular plot. A candy-making corporation will occupy the building. Twenty years ago Robert S. Smith." who owns the property, startled realty men by paying $387,000 for the land, which has only 1,250 square feet of area. He had come to America with $5.75 from his native Russia in 1S80. When he bought the property, he was told such a small strip was not worth the price and could never be proit able. Within a few hours after the $3,500. 000 lease was drawn up. another candy concern offered $10,000 more i year for the land, but it was too late K. of P. at Eldorado May Organize Sisters Order ELDORADO. O.. May 7. The Eldo rado K. of P. lodge will meet -Tuesday night in open session for the purpose of discussing the foundation- of a Pythian Sisters order in Eldorado. Miss Grace Rike, of Covington. O.. will be here and address the meeting and assist in starting the order. Considerable interest is being manifested in the founding of a sister lodge and no doubt the project will receiv? warm support. Returns From Hospital. Mrs. Tom Campbell returned recently from Reid Memorial hospital at Richmond, where she underwent a major operation several weeks ago She is improving slowly. Mr. and Mrs. James Markey are the parents of a baby daughter, born Tuesday afternoon. Church Repairs Started. Work will be started Monday on decorating interior of the U. B. church. The walls will receive several coats of paint and be refinished. The floors will also be treated and polished. An imprisoned shark will repeatedly bruise its nose against the sides ofa glass tank and never seem to learn not to do it.
