July 4 was once considered one of our really big days with firecrackers in every hamlet and city, horse shows, balloon ascensions, short rail excursions to Terre Haute and Indianapolis parks crowded with people and flags and bunting all over. Every town had its speaker and the few old soldiers of the Civil War gathered in the town hall or church and listened to a pa-

evening and when the dust cleared away the players from Jefferson Township, Putnam County could well say: “We came, we saw, we conquered.” They outplayed the local boys here to the tune of 10-3. It is difficult to see how a host team could be more charitable than was our Coatesville boys. More

luck next time.

A landmark is soon to disappear from West Main Street of our town. A two and a half story framed home owned by a Mr. Anderson is reported cold and will be razed. This house was built years ago by a saw-

spiritual 1 mil1 °P erator named Lynch and

later was the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Leachman. For a few years the residence was the possession of Eleazer Kersey and then was the well-cared-for home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed McVey. Many may recall that in more recent years the house land land belonged to Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Rollings and from them it passed to Mr. Anderson. On Friday, June 30, the furniture, dishes and all that had once made it a home was sold at auction and so the old homestead has come to the end of

the trail.

The best ball game the Coatesville fans have seen In a long while was played Friday evening on the local diamond between the home little league! team and Stilesville. The boys from Road 40 had won eight straight games but lost this one. Coatesville got off to a good start and scored five runs their first time at bat. In the second inning Stilesville tied 5-5, then socred a run in each of the next three innings making 8. The local squad was shut out In the second, third and fourth, but hit the ball hard for two runs in each of the fifth and sixth innings making the count 9-8. The Stilesville pitcher fanned seven batters and the local boy struck out two. A pleasing letter came from the state library Saturday stat-

ing that during the sesquicen-1 tennial year the library had = copied some 42,414 pages of historical manuscript sent in by 56 ! counties. When all summed up, | the winning counties were 1 Washington first, Franklin second, and Hendricks third. Among the manuscripts sent from Coatesville was a short history of Clay Township, A Short History of Coatesville and a story of the State W.C.T.U. Industrial Home for Girls that was one time the pride and conversation piece of Hadley. Larry Herrin, recently graduated from high school and son of Mr. and Mrs. Elston Herrin was In a motorcycle wreck In Hazelwood Saturday night. He was taking a girl friend home on the bike when a dog ran under the machine and caused both riders to catapult onto the pavement ahead. The dog was killed and both riders were sent to the Hendricks County Hospital for a checkup and treatment. Both parties were painfully injured but nothing of a

serious order.

Clyde Ruark. formerly of this community, and now a citizen of Lebanon was calling on a number of Coatesville relatives tind friends Saturday morning, j The Coatesville Public Library is to sponsor a Summer Read-. ing Club starting July 5 and open to all children in the first six grades. Each child will have the opportunity of reading 151 books, five of which are to be non-fiction. Each reader will get books at his owm grade level or higher if a teacher recommends. An award will be given at the close of the reading period for the most books read. The period will close Aug. 12. Diplomas will be awarded to each and every child who completes the project. Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Hatha-; way were dinner and overnight guests Saturday at the home of his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. H. H. Hathaway and sister,

Mrs. Doris Runnells.

A LONG-MARRIED executive, waxing amorous in his •fX declining years, found a complaisant secretary and took to lunching with her in an out-of-the-way restaurant where he knew none of his friends would turn up to spot him. One day, however, the proprietor came up to his table to tell him morosely, *Tm afraid you’re going to have to find another eating place where nobody will be around to see you.

Riding to work aboard a crowded bus (me morning, a young bank clerk came suddenly to life when a beautiful young lady, clad in a tight and revealing costume, came aboard. Just after die had deposited her fare, qhe lost her balance, and lurching for a strap, gave our banker an unintentional but reasonably painful whack across the forehead. Obviously embarrassed, she started to apologize, but the banker cut her short with, “Don’t concern yourself, my dear. For what I was just thinking, I deserved it” The two left the bus together, and disappeared down a dde street arm in arm.
