Enquire of the undersigned 3 miles southeast of Hartford G. W. Pierce. Rev McLain occupied the pulpit in the M. E.

Church Sunday evening, and although not feeling very well on account of the grippe delivered a very interesting nd instructive discourse, in his usual intelligent and pleasing manner. Aa old subscriber came in and stopped the Call, that is, his copy of it, which made us feel bad for about an hour, when a new subscriber came along and planked a silver dollar in our paw, and then we felt glad, all of which leads to the reflection of how much sweeter is the sweet alta. having tasted the bitter. As we are a stranger among you and find that our time will neees-sarially have to be given chiefly to the mechanical department of this office, and desiring to give you a paper worthy of the community in which it is published, it would be an especial favor if the readers of the Call will notify us of the local happenings com ing under their notice, such as social events, marriages, deaths, accidents, arrival and departure of relatives or friends, in city or country. Items written for publication should be brief and to he point and namns should be plainly written to avoid mistakes, Git AD UA TIXG CLA SS.

We have made the discovery that Hartford can take genuine pride in having one of the best schools in the stale, the legitimate result of having a school lioard with business sagacity enough to recognize the importance of employing first class instructors and paying therefor good wages. Prof-Weatherby has endeared himself to pupil and parent alike hy his untiring devotion to the work in which his mind and heart is deeply absorbed and for which he is so eminently ntul ifled In the two years he has had charge of the schools ef this city he has successfully introduced and carried forward a higher grade that will fit those who graduate therefron for the social and intellectual responsibilities of life without the necessity of a subsequent collegiate course. When it is remembered that a large majority for one reason or another finish their education in the public schools, and that the tendenc- of ev-thing these scholars will have to meet and contend with through life is upward and onward, the importance of the Professor's idea of a higher grade in the public schools, will be the more apparent to all. Following is a list ot the names of those who will graduate at the' close of the present term of school, Friday. April 24th, 1S91.

The exercises will be held in the evening, at the M. E. Church: Lila Bennett. Acsha J. Mosher.

II. Priest, a resident of county for thirty three years, called to size up the new editor. lie is one of those true blue, stalwart republicans that it does one good to meet. Josh Billings says: 'Rize early, work hard and late, live on what 300 can't sell; give nothing away and if you don't die rich and go to the devil, you may sue me for damages." Miss Lora Knight has accepted a position as salesman in the dy goods department lately added to their large stock of goods. The new enterprise will undoubtedly succeed under her delicate manngement.

Mr. L. D.

We have made some sweeping changes lately it took one whole day to sweep out.

Smith, 6 miles south of town, reports a bran new 9 pound young lady at his house, which more than compensates him for the recent siege of measles in his lamify of nine.

W. L. Wilner has had erected a number of hitchiag posts in front of his stores, which have the appearance of a cordial invitation for his farmer friends to hitch their teams and come in. The G. A.

R. boys met in their Hall Tuesday evening, and after transacting regular business proceeded to swap yarns till a late hour. Boys, we'll have to get home a ltttle earlier or the W. R. will be appointing a committee of investigation.

The failure to mention the part Rov McLain took in the G. A. R. celebration on the evening of April Gth, was purely an oversight on the part of the writer, who was neither ptesent nor acquainted with the people nor the circumstances of the occasion. The part he took is reported as having contributed largely to the success of the celebration.

Michael Myers, who represented Hartford Lodge, No 8, at the recent Grand Lodge at unction City, is dead. While at the meeting he contracted a cold, which settled on his lungs, and on March lOtn he passed away from pneumonia. For nineteen terms brother Myers served as Guide in his lodge. He never aspired to any other position. When the brothers elected him Master Workman, he protested that lie was not qualified for the place, but they insisted that he serve, and he made a good one.

Bro. Myer's reJuctance to accept the position arose from the fact that he spoke English with so much of the German accent hal he feared it would be objectionable. Few men kuev ever- detail ot the work and of A. U. W.

law as he did, und there are no men in all the world with nobler hearts than this good old man. lie leaves a wife and four children.
