believe there is a liner store room

The Joke on Lee.
Our excellent friend, Lee Old
ham, has just passed his sixty
eighth birthday, and in honor of
the occasion his many gentlemen
friends planned a very pleasant
celebration of the affair last Sat
urday evening. Lee was taking
the world rather quietly at his
home reading the evening paper,
when Dr. Gilmorc appeared on
the scene and requested that Lei
was needed down at the Lough-
ridge hall, where the citizens were
gathering to settle the posloftlce
appointment in Murray. The
doctor told Lee that several
citizens were up for the place and
that he was needed lo make the
proper select ion. Lee did not take
much stock in this story, bul as
he had never had cause to doubt
the dotcor's word, he proceeded
to go down to the meeting and
make a scrap for his friends, as
he usually does. Arriving at the
ball he found just about the num
ber of men present that the doctor
had told him of, but the Murray
postofllec was the least thing in
their minds at that time. Here
they had gathered with many good
things lo eat. and enjoy a pleasant
evening with Mr. Oldham, and as
sist him in celebrating his birth
day anniversary. It was sure a
pleasant time for all.
