In most ways it was a grand success. Bruce and Juanita Dodd (Mr. and Mrs.) as song leaders extraordinary, won the hearts of all those present while Rev. Goldner of Mogadore Church of Christ delivered what might be considered t\yo excellent addresses in one. Young folks will probably remember one or more of the points of the Christian's religion that "rocket out like balls of fire from a Roman candle," viz. (1) Belief (2) Growth (3) Joy (4) Achievement (5) Spiritual Insight and (6) Humanity (or love of our fellow man). Also a bloated brick, a green brick and a soft brick will be remembered as undesirable types of human lives. Many thanks should go to the ladies of the Ladies Bible Class who furnished the many good things to eat and served same to eighty-eight young people. Mr. Gillam also deserves a thank you for his part in preparing some half dozen of the nine chickens supplied for the repast..

Luther replied, v"in the night Julia asked me to.get up and get, the bottle of liniment on the stand and rub her back, say<r ing that it ached so that she couldn't 1 sleep," This, was before the days of electric; lights in Stow, and Luther didn't bother to light an oil lamp, but got- the liniment in the dark. The treatment was soothing and Julia was soon able to go to sleep. Luther told: father that "In the morning" I found ink all over Julia's : back, her nightdress and the sheets, but it cured the ache." Ink makes a rather expensive liniment, but it does the trick even, if it does leave tracks that tell tales.'
