CYRUS: Hot off the press: The news from Joppa, March 6, 1918.

Farmers are busy gathering corn this pretty weather.

Mr. A.G. Willis, one of our oldest residents, has been on the sick list for several weeks.(Mr. Willis died March 27th, 1918, age 81. Quite possibly, his given names were Albert Gallatin.)


Mr. and Mrs. E.G. Flowers have moved to their farm which they recently purchased from the Holladay heirs.

Mr. W.A. Brockman and sister, Miss Lina, entertained several of their friends Monday night with a game of Rook. (Rook had not yet achieved "teenage" status, being only twelve years old at the time.)

Mr. Frank Willin, of Kansas, who had been on an extended visit with his father, Mr. Dave Willin, will return home this week. Miss Ethel W. Powell entered the C.H.S., last Monday. Little Miss Frances Holladay, who has been quite sick with pneumonia, is improving. Mrs. Fannie Willis is visiting her daughter, Mrs. L.M. Smith. Mr. Smith has been a great sufferer for some time with muscular rheumatism.

Mr. Steve Bell and family, of near Bliss, have moved to the Flower's place.

Cassius Taylor and Will Hare will move to Russell Spring soon.

G.B. Yates, Jr., is on the sick list.

Misses Annie Lee and Virginia Reeves visited the Misses Tupman, last week, and attended the party at Mr. Isaac Willin.

Mrs. W.H. Hammonds, of Fairplay, visited at the home of Mr. Frank Sanders last week.

Mrs. James Holladay, who broke her arm recently, is rapidly improving.

Mrs. Theo Powell is on the sick list.
