The reginfcntal band of York
headed the J.roops and was followed
by the reginu-nt formed in columns
of squads ami marching in battalion
formation, the offTcers all being in
line with their companies.
The appearance of the troops was
very fine and showed the excellent
effects of the twelve days' training
as many of the organizations have
large numbers of new recruits who
are learning their first lessons in the
work of the soldier.
It was with snap and true sol

marched over the hot streets and
executed the Jtiovements with all the
poise of a bunch of seasoned veter
ans. The medical-nnits and the trucks
and sidecars : of the transportation
department of the quartermaster
corps brought tip the rear of the
regiment and it was a real object les
son to the onlookers of what a. real
effective fighting force the state has
in the young jnen of the national
guard.
Cause of Appendicitis
When the bowels are constipated,
the lower bowels or large intestines
become packed with refuse matter
that is made up largely of germs.
Tljese germs enter the vermiform
appendix and set up .jnflamation,
which is commonly known as appen
dicitis. Take Cliamberlain's Tablets
when needed and keep your bowels
reguliw and you have little to fear
from appendicitis. Weyrich &. Had

it left him the enly passenger ound

FUNERAL OF W.
H. FREESE IS HELD
Services at the Late Home Largely
Attended by Old Friends to
Pay Their Last Tribute.
From Saturday's Daily
Last evening at 6 o'clock, the fu
neral services of the late V. H.
Freese were held at the home on west
Vine street and very largely attend
ed by the old friends and neighbors
who gathered to pay their last to
kens of respect to his memory.
The Rev. John Calvert, pastor of
the First Methodist church, of which
the deceased has for many years been
a very devout member, conducted
the services and paid tribute, to the
departed brother as well as giving
words of comfort and solace to the
bereaved members of the family.
During the services a quartet sang
two of the songs requested by the
family, "There's a Land that's Fair
er than Day," and "A Charge to
Keep I Have." while Mrs. Ed Ro
man sang a solo, "Face to Face."
At the conclusion of the services
at the home the body was borne to
Oak Hill" cemetery to be laid to rest,
the active pall bearers being from
the American Legion post and con
sisted of Emil Hild, Eugene Lister,
John Wichman, Roy Stewart, Tom
Short and Byron Babbitt.
At the grave the Grand Army of
the Republic and the W. R. C. held
short services and Hon. R. B. Wind
ham gave an eulogy of the departed
friend and neighbor.
CONCORD HILL FARM
One of. the most productive farms
in the county, nearly the entire tract
laying nearly level, with just enuf
slope to insure the proper drainage,
is the farm of August Keil near Cul
lom or what was formerly called
Concord station. The farm was once
owned by the Beavers and over a half
a century ago there was a stone
scliool house built on the place which
served as a place of instruction for
some thirty to thirty-five years, since
which time it has been used for a
barn for the farm.
Many people from many places
come every year and take pictures
of the building for their collection
of interesting places. This place had
indeed an interesting past, many of
the grownups who are along in years
received their first instruction in
this stone building..
The building , which was erected
in the later sixties of the last cen
tury was only reshingled a few years
since and is in. a fair state of pre
servation. The farm originally con
tained 1S7 acres and a small portion
was sold to J. P. Falter and some
forty acres went to Louis Heil, this
leaving with the farm at the pres
ent time 143 acres.
ALL GOOD LOSERS
From Friday's Dally.
Last night-as the rivalry for the
American Legion's trophy cup near
ed its end. there was no evidence of
any airs of superiority among the
different companies and everyone
was anxiously awaiting the verdict
of Lieut. Col. McDaniel, hopeful, yet
certain that if they were losers, the
men in their organization could take
it good naturedly and congratulate
the winners. Among the several
leading companies was this spirit
especially noticeable, and it is cer
tain that had Aere been a half dozen
cups to award they could have been
meritoriously placed.
The spirit of being a feood loser is
a very commendable one and makes
for greater interest In the contests
that are held.
