BOTH ATTEND REUNION OF THL; TENTH HEAVY ARTILLERY IN WATERTOWN. Point Peninsula had practically a 100 per cent enlistment in the day.? >f '61. This fact is vouched for by .lie two surviving veterans from that. district, who attended the reunion of the Tenth Heavy Artillery, held at the Historical building, at Watertown, last Thursday. With a gleam of pride in 'his br'own gray eyes, Lester C. Angell told of the record of the boys from his home' •district. Although he is now a resi- lient of Three Mile Bay, Mr. Angell is a native of Point Peninsula and is proud to be listed among the veterans from that district. Born August 28, 1840, he was mar- ried October 30, 1861 and enlisted shortly thereafter'' in the federal forces. Petersburg and Cold Harbor were among the scenes of battle where the outfit faced the enemy and at Shenandoah Valley they were with Sheridan, doing guard duty over n .vag-on train bearing valuable supplies. The thought that the span of life of 'these veterans is nearly ended is apparent in the conversation of the men. \If I live until August 28,\ said Mr. Angell, \I will be 86, and on October 30 my wife and I hope to celebrate our 65th wedding anniver- sary.\ But the pride in, the boys of Point Peninsula was the chief topic of his conversation. \To-day I can drive on the point and see only a few people that 1 know, but in '61 practically al of .he able bodied men were in the ser- vice with me. Schuyler Collins is still living there and is up to-day at- tending the reunion. He was a mem- ber of my own outfit, Company M. \Theodore Mayhew was the oldest of the men enlisting from the Pen- insula. The others were: William Graves, Rufus Oooley, Ezra Chese- bro, Edward Moore, Sherman 'Hol- brook, Jesse Harris, Abram Roof, Frank Armstrong, Moses Armstrong, William Mayhew, Oren Sanford, La- fayette Sanford, Edward Mayhew, Schuyler Collins, Newall Danley, George Penay, Warren Fuller, George Spaulding, Charles Seeley and New- all Smith.\ IjeKSTCK DON'T STOP MY PAPER. Don't stop my paper, Printer, Don't strike my name off yet; You know the cash comes slow. And dollars hard to get; But tug a little harder— Is what I mean to do; And scrape the dimes together— Enough for me and you. I can't afford to drop it, And I find it doesn't pay To do without the paper, However, others may; I hate to ask my neighbors To give me theirs to loan; They don't just say, but mean it— Why don't you get your own? TROUBLE—IGNORE IT. —o— When the sun is sending its yarmth and light, and the balmy breezes blow, then trouble vanishes Irom sight and I spiel no tale of woe. And whei) dark clouds are gathering 'round and the atmosphere is thick, I will not hay like a troubled hound the trail of woe to seek. The trouble may find me by night or day, 'twill by no appoint- ment call, I'll not sit up when the shadows stray, expecting its ominous fall; if trouble is coming I'll say, by Heck, it will hit me with blank sur- prise, nor will I anticipate its effect, or seek its acquaintance, not L—The \Cracker in the De Ruyter Gleaner. .e By B.

Healey Yes, I have felt the lonliness That haunts the parting way, That keenly sags the human soul When skies begin, t o gray. Ah, yes my friend I've tramped it sir To find it very tough, The turning point to something new Is always rather rough. 'Tis not a spot where traffic surge Within the cities grind, Nor does it lay in rural parts, It lays within the mind. For who can travel any gait And never hope to learn, That somewhere farther on life's way, His road must also turn. A quiet, peaceful parting way, With flowers clustered near; And yet how many pause by it— To shed a pensive tear! Although I've traveled softer ways, Before 1 met the bend; I'll trudge along and bear the pain— Rewarded in the end. Although I've suffered at each turn That marks the parting way; I've learned ait most, -oho' punished I- Arn learning more each day! The City Cousin KICKERS ABOUT THE WEATHER —o— Pulaski Democrat: It was Ben Franklin Who said \those people who complain most and loudest about the cold weather, are first to look reproachfully at you and express themselves as almost dead with heat as soon as it gets to 80 degrees warm.\ It is the people who -talk least about the weather, either hot or cold, who get the most pleasure out of life and suffer least. Nothing becomes an individual more than to be silent if he cannot speak favorably about the weather. It has never oc- curred to some people that whatever they say or how much they fret about it the weather never changes to suit their notion. There are many things that most anyone could have done better than they are done but they have not been delegated to make the improvements they can see ought bo be effected. Some people are sure the thing-they see out of their reach is better than the thing they can have. Some people think the food not on their table is far more to be desired than the food they have at hand. Kickers about the weather are quite frequently found to be kickers about many other things they cannot control. To set out determined to make the best of the situation in which you find yourself will lead you into the surest state of happiness possible to reach. .'Homespun Yarn..

PAINT RURAL MAIL BOXES WHITE. —o— Rural post-office patrons are being asked by Postmaster General Harry S. New to paint their mail boxes white. Postmasters .throughout the country have been urged to make a systematic effort to induce every rural box owner to paint his box white, and to stencil his name on each side of the box in black letters about one inch, high. Improvements such as these have been made on 714 routes, but as there are 45,000 routes in operation, this number is comparatively small. Fourth Assistant Postmaster General H. H. Ballany is in charge of the campaign to make rural mail boxes conform to the standards set by the post-office department. NORTH COUNTRY EDITORS TO HOLD SUMMER OUTING.

CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE AID Chambers o£ Commerce in every part of New York state have respond- ed to ihe appeal tor making the New York State Fair this year have a state- wide appeal in cities and towns as well as in the rural sections. The special committee on transpor- tation to the State Fair is sending its bulletin explaining tbe educational activities of the State Fair to all local chambers of commerce. This bulletin shows why city folk have a direct in- terest in production of food and in- dustrial products and that this inter- est should be as keen as that shown by farmers. DIE I E BY ILLI8IS •RECORDS ARE BROKEN IN NUM- - BERS OF FISH WASHED TO BEACHES. Unusually severe mortality among the branch herring in Lake Ontario is strewing the shore with hundreds jf thousands of dead fish, polluting the atmosphere for many rods back into the fields.,. Outing parties, seek- ing the lake front, are being turned back by the odor and the shores are •riven over to the winrows of bodies. Branch herring, known also as liver herring or alewdfe, die by mil- lions every season, their bodies be- ing cast upon the beach. The mor- tality usually begins late in June and customarily is oyer before this date. Not only are the dead fish still coming ashore but residents along the coast assert that the death rate is the heaviest noted in their years of residence. In places the fish oc-; cupy a space three or four feet broad. A continuous line of dead fish marks the coast of Jefferson county from the St. Lawrence estuary to the Oswego county line. I t will be many days if not several weeks before the shore is free from their presence. These con-, ditions do not apply in most of the. bays, which generally are free from the pollution. The state conservation commission in its official report says of the ale- wife: \In Lake Ontario, since intro- duction of the shad, the alewife has become so plentiful as to cause great difficulty to fishermen, and its per- iodical mortality is a serious menace to the health of the people living in the vicinity. The belief is that the fish were unintentionally introduced with the shad.\ Cause- of the periodic deaths is not stated, if it has been ascertained by the experts, but it is said that if it were not for this heavy mortality the branch herring would soon fill the lake. A single individual will produce from 00,000 to 100,000 eggs. During the spring and summer the young attain a length of two to three inches and in the ocean the alewife has been known to exceed a foot. The av- erage marketable variety runs about 10 inches and the weight of the largest is about a half pound. The dead fish which -now line the coast appear to be this year's pro- duct and run from about two to six inches in length.

Copyright, IXxQ Mad 6? Co, fat The preservation in permanent form of the customs and implements of our farmer forefathers and mothers promises to be one of the most inter- esting exhibits at the New York State Fair, Syracuse, opening August 30. The exhibit is under the auspices of the New York State Agricultural So- ciety, the oldest farm society In the State and one of the oldest in America. The real old fashioned farm home with the log cabin and all of the de- tails in connection with old time farm life surrounding it will be the center of the interest in the exhibit building. The cabin itself has been taken from its original site, and moved to the State Pair grounds at Syracuse. The Society has under way plans to establish at Albany a perma- nent farm museum and agricultural and household Implements at the State Fair exhibit this year will form the nucleus of this display. In the cabin will he an old fireplace, spinning wheel, bed and other house- hold furniture and implements exact- ly like those used by our great-grand- fathers and mothers. There will be a daily program illustrating pioneer household activities by persons in the State who have actually worked with old fashioned implements. In the early morning an old time cobbler and shoemaker will actually make shoes from wooden lasts and wooden pegs; an old lady will be busily engaged at the spinning wheel; there will be a program of songs our grandmothers sang; a quartette of young ladies in costume from the De- partment of Foods and Markets will lead in community singing; old time Joannycake like grandmother made will be served free of charge, and there will be a brief talk on old time customs by persons who have studied pioneer farm life. Entries for the spinning contest for ladies over 50 years old should be sent to Jared Van Wagehen, Jr., American Agriculturist, who is co-op- erating with the State Agricultural Society in the exhibit. Mr. Van Wage- nen is looking for an old-tima cobbler, a Dutch oven, a spinning $vheel, or any other implements for the exhibits An essay contest of not more than 1,000 words Is open to boys and girls on the subject \Improvement in Farm Home Equipment Since Grandmother's Pay.\ Dining Out. Meals out of doors offer one way to combat hot weather. A shady porch, a sheltered spot in the garden, or a heaoh umbrella stuck into the lawn will provide a spot for informal meals at any time of the day. Houses equipped with electricity frequently have extra outlets on the porch to permit the use of electric toasters, grills, and percolators. Even without these, appetizing meals may be served outside with little difficulty. A wheel tray or service wagon will carry practically a whole meal from kitchen to porch without difficulty. A large tray may be used if, it is impossiblo to use a service wagon. One hot dish is enough for a warm weather meal. If this is served in the first course, all the food for the meal may be brought out at once. Crisp salads, cool drings, cool desserts, and sandwiches are the kinds of food for summer weather and when served out of doors they are very appetisiing. PLANT A BARN. —o— We used to grow on our own hills, The boards to make our floors and sills But now-a-days we bring them on From Arkansas and Oregon. Looks like the sons of me and you Must import wood from Timbuctoo If they would build a house and stoop, A cowbarn and a chicken coop. To right the wrong while yet we can, Our forestry extension man Has got a slogan and a plan. He's pondered long upon the question and \Plant a Barn\ is his suggestion. If you start little trees to-day Your son will see them on the way, And your son's son may house his hay. Two acres pine will see him through it One and a half will likely do it. Your farm has got some rugged spot That vou could use as well as not. But let us plant a little more To build a house, r-oof, walls and floor, And make that other needed shack, A little off and somewhat back— Although I hope in days a-coming The farmer folks will all have plumb- ing. O I am stirred, by thoughts like these, I'll bend my,back, I'll bend my knees, I'll set a lot of little trees, I'll crown the hill with noble pine To help my grandson house his kine, That he may have upon his barnsite A better building by a darn sight. —Bob Adams.

I'm sick of the honk of the raucous horn And the scream of the sudden brake And the all night crowd with its lordly scorn Of whether I sleep or wake. Oh, I am a friend to my eager friend, And no foe to my fellow man; In my humble hut at the dirt road's' end I'll be as sociable as I can. But why should 1 live by the side of the street Where the dust and the gas fumes fly, Or mow my lawn for the flivvers fleet As the whole dumb world goes by? If you love me you'll turn down my way Though it leads to no other spot; A road's end's sweet, when the twi- light's gray, And a heartfire boils the pot.
