the oldest man in the town.
UNEXPECTED MEETING

J. C. Bubaker Met Miles Murr in

was surprised to meet his school
mate and former townsman, Miles
Murr, and his wife. Mr. Murr has
been living on a one-half section
farm in North Dakota, near Fargo,
a heritage he received with his wife.
Mr. Brubaker writes: "We had a
very pleasant visit together. This
incident again reminds me of the
fact, that distance can not separate
one from his friends and acquain-tances.
Miles expects to bring his
wife east soon and show her the best
country and the best people, who are
known by the name—farmers, as well
as those who live in the well-kept
towns and villages of the Garden
Spot County of the World."
Miles Murr is a son of Lewis Murr
who conducted a blacksmith shop
here many years ago.

_ Pouncl
OnrTom
Two fellows racing in
autos from Clay to Bricker-viile
last week were stopped
by a state policeman and
fined ten dollars apiece be-fore
he left them go. Motor-ists
have been warned not
to pay money to any officer
along the road. Lately there
have been similar cases re-ported
at different times in
the state, fines frequently
being collected by a fake of-ficer.
If this officer was a
real official he overstepped
his authority.
Deputy Warden Santee,
who came into prominence
last week in the newspapers
in connection with the alleg-ed
beating up of P^raley, a
convict of the Eastern Peni-tentiary,
is not unknown in
Lititz. Santee was a mem-ber
of the State Police and
was stationed at Lancaster,
several years ago.- Roy Reid-enbach,
who thought he was
doing a generous thing,
went to the hills north of
here to get Christmas trees
for the decorations at the
fountain. Unfortunately, he
cut trees from a specially
planted plot by mistake, re-sulting
in Santee coming to
town and arresting him.
Santee was always regarded
as a likeable fellow.
It looks as if the affair at
Philadelphia has been white-washed.
Nevertheless one
of the board of trustees has
resigned and the fact re-mains
that the victim spent
fifteen days in the hospital
after his punishment. Might
makes right and a criminal
has little chance of justice.
The politicians who made
possible the jobs of over-seers
at the pen must be
protected. In Florida when
a boy was killed by a brutal
keeper the doctor in charge
openly lied to protect the of-ficials
and the politicians.
Naturally these derelicts
are fhere for punishment
but not for abuse and to be
beaten. Furthermore the
state owns a large farm,
bought with the purpose of
putting its criminals there.
But the politicians prefer to
crowd them in the Eastern
Penitentiary instead of plac-ing
them where they would
be put to work and would be
partly self-supporting. There
is something wrong with the
prison system. Because a
man breaks the law is no
reason that he should cease
to earn his living.
But prisons are under the
control of political systems
and that means placing men
in charge regardless of their
fitness. Too many persons
are willing to let the politi-cians
do their thinking for
them and when some one
does your thinking you pay
for it.
There are many muskrats
caught around here for the
pelts but the people never
took to them as food. There
is one family in town who
eat them with a relish, but
they moved here from an-other
section. In the big
markets the carcasses bring
good money. One trapper
in this county freezes them
and sends them to Philadel-phia,
where he realizes as
much for them dressed as
the hides bring. In the city
restaurants they are served
as marsh rabbits. They are
a very cleanly animal and
live on grass, vegetables and
grain. They wash their
food before eating it. It's
the idea that keeps them off
the table—and idea means a
lot when it comes to cook-ery.
They are said to be
better than rabbits. Per-sons
around here eat opos-sum,
ground hog and other
game without giving it a
thought, but they draw the
line on muskrats.
WOMAN BADLY BURNED
WHEN OIL CAN EXPLODED
Mrs. Rufus Dennis, 35, in Serious
Condition in Hospital Following
Accident at Home Near Lititz
Caused by the explosion of a coal
oil can Mrs. Rufus Dennis, 35 years
old, living on the Sheaffer Brubaker
farm north-west of Lititz, was badly
burned at her home on Saturday
evening and is in a serious condition.
The following day she was taken to
St. Joseph's Hospital.
She started Are in a kitchen stove,
holding a burning match in one hand
and a coal oil can in the other hand.
It is believed that the fumes ignited,
causing the coal oil to explode. Coal
oil spread over her clothing and in a
moment she was a mass of flames.
Screaming, she ran through the
house until a neighbor, Miss Miriam
Groff, who resided at the Dennis
home, came to her rescue. Miss
Groff managed to extinguish the
flames by wrapping Mrs. Dennis in
carpet, but not until the victim had
been painfully burned. A neighbor,
hearing the screams, came there with
a fire extinguisher.
At the hospital it was reported
that Mrs. Dennis was badly burned
about the body and limbs, but that
there is a chance for her recovery.
Dr. D. C. Martin of Lititz was called
on the case.
Miss Holtzhouse Fell Off Horse
While riding horseback with a
party of friends the beginning of the
week the horse ridden by Miss Eliza-beth
Holtzhouse threw her while
going arouri'd a corner at a fast rate
of speed, landing on her neck and
shoulders. She was brought home
by automobile. Miss Holtzhouse is
confined to bed but outside of stiff
muscles is not seriously hurt-.
Former Sailor Visited Lititz and
Decided to Remain Here
Thomas Burk, 22 years old, just
out of the U. S. navy, having been in
the service for seven years, has come
to Lititz to make his home. He has
crossed the Atlantic twenty times
and during the war was on a mine
sweeper. Once they wetre wrecked
by the boat hitting a mine and for
thirty-six hours he was among other
survivors who were on a raft when
they were picked up.
At Baltimore he showed Oliver
Reed of this place around a boat.
They became acquainted and the
Lititz man invited him to visit him
at Lititz. He came last week, liked
the town and decided to get a job
here. He has no home, both of his
parents being dead.
Henry Wike Was 83 Years Old

when his six children, eighteen

twenty-five for supper, a sumptuous
table being provided.

who were stopping at the hotel at
that place while working around
there temporarily. Among the men
was Harry Kemper, of this place.
The companion is described as stock-ish-
built person and of clear com-plexion.
They had come there on a

Series of Helpful Sermons to Which

the Mission are drawn closer to God
and are encouraged to lead better
lives.
Special services will be conducted
every morning and every evening

prayer, sermon and benediction in

7:30 o'clock. Every day, beginning
Monday, December 17th, there will be
an early mass and sermon at 5 A. M.
for those who go to work early, and
a second mass at 8 o'clock, followed
by a sermon. The evening services
will begin at 7:30 o'clock, and will be
concluded at 8:30 P. M., in order to
give those who live out of town
ample time to reach the cars.
The following topics will be treat-ed
in the sermons:
Sunday morning, "The Acceptable
Time;" evening, "Man's Greatest
Concern."
Monday morning, "Conditions for
Pardon;" evening, "The Greatest
Evil."
Tuesday morning, "Peace With
God;" evening, "The Ideal Christian
Home."
Wednesday morning, "Full Recon-ciliation;"
evening, "The Final Reck-oning."
Thursday morning, "Great Wrongs
Righted;" evening, "Divine Justice."
Friday morning, "A World of In-iquity;"
evening, "Practical Christi-anity."
Saturday morning, "The God of
Love;" evening, "Our Tainted Na-ture's
Solitary Boast."
Sunday morning, "Faith;" evening,
"Good Resolutions."
The Mission will close on Sunday,
December 23rd, at 3 P. M., with
special solemn service.
Everybody, irrespective of creed, is
cordially invited to attend the Mis-sion.
The sermons will not be of a
controversial character. They will
deal with the fundamental truths of
Christianity, in which all Christians
believe. But, if desired, opportunity
will be accorded for private consulta-tion
on religious matters.
Truth and charity—but no con-troversy.

ask that the public back them up to

Buying Up Tobacco
There was activity in the tobacco
market during the past week when
local buyers and others bought up
quite a few crops around here.
Prices ranged from 15% to 20 and 21
cents, the short weed bringing the
lowest price, and as high as 7 cents
for binders. This is a better price
for binders than for some years past.
D. W. Withers was probably the heav-iest
buyer among the local packers.
It is believed the activity of a pro-posed
operative packers association
by the farmers started the buyers.
