Sunday, Feb. 2, was not both clouds and sunshine, the sort that leaves room for that old Fake Prog- nostigator to worm out of responsi¬ bility. The day was clear through- . out, and, in keeping with the super¬ stition, we should have 40 days of winter, and there's, no way out of it. Walker and Winfred Propst, of Doe Hill, were in Monterey Wednes¬ day.

James Carroll, who lives on Homer Stephenson's farm on Little Back Creek, trapped a large eagle last week, which he sent to the Staunton park. The eagle was feeding on a dead sheep, Mr. Carroll taking ad¬ vantage of the fact and setting a .trap for him. The big bird was caught by the toe, hence not crip¬ pled or disfigured. It wiH'make a "Uhe atraction for the Valley City park. NOTICE . Our accounts are due when presented or mailed, and we hope that our customers and friends will give prompt attention. We thank you. Highland Mercantile Co. The ice man and the small boy with his sled may yet have their in¬ ning, but these interests are subor¬ dinate, especially here, where we have an abundance of sparkling spring water and where the said small boy has ample diversions. Henry Jones, of Goshen, Va., was in Monterey Thursday shaking hands with friends. W. E. Gum and D. C. Graham, who are carpentering at Deerfleld, spent Sunday at their Monterey homes.

It is understood chat about six bids were sent in and that there was a big range in the a- aount asked for the service. The matter .will most likely be settled this week. CRABBOTTOM The sick folks are all better. Rev. Lindamood preached to small crowds Sunday at Central and New church. V'The ground-hog saw his shadow vhich we shall pay for later in the .season. Walter Newman, with his sister, .Irs. 0. P. Chew, left last week to go :o their brother, Claud Newman at Frcwt, who heard that his daughter, inna had died at Massey's school in .liclimond. Charles K.

Colaw returned to his home from Camp Lee Jan. 31st, with an lonorable discharge from ' his cap- lain, the usual complimentary form >eing used: "I am proud of him, he ias done -his duty well, and all bid aim good-bye with deep regret, and vish him every success after he re¬ turns home . that spot in every mans .ieart no other place can fill." His parents had a fat turkey roast for aim, which he thought tasted better than veal. y Frank Hedrick, a young soldier joy and Mrs. Georgie Vandevender, from Randolph county were married January 29th, at High Knob, under an old apple tree by Rev. Arnold, .vho had just received license to mar ry and this being his first couple and at such an odd place. It was just across the state line. He wishes to jet a picture of the place in Summer time.

Gwin, of Bolar, dined with his daughter, Mrs. Hollie Gutshall Saturday. The flu is dying down around here, most all the victims improving, [among the worst now are Thomas Folks' family. Hiawatha. MESSAGES FROM THE BOYS Three soldier boys have recently- been heard from in a letter to treas¬ urer Willis Gibson: Willie Benson, in France, expected his tank unit, No. 302, to sail for home soon. John R. Siaven, son of the late Henry A. Siaven is in the army of occupation, hence inside the German border. He said he was well and made no reference to having been wounded as was reported here repeat edly. Hubert Jordan, nephew of Mr. Gibson, whose home is in Pocahontas was in a hospital when he wrote. He had received five wounds, proba¬ bly from a bursting shell, one of which was still giving him trouble. Miller Bishop, of the aviation branch of the service, is expected to reach New York at any time, the date set for sailing being about Feb. 28. He is a son of Mr. and Mrs. V. B. Bishop, of Monterey. William Dickson has written home that he expects to sail soon for America.' Below are a few remarks concern¬ ing two Highland boys . Mech. A. R. Gum and Corp. R. K. Gum, (bros.) to let their relatives and friends know how they came out of the great conflict. Neither of them had been sick a single day- since they went into training, and while they were both at the front several times, neither got a scratch, probably, due to their not having to go into the firing line. R. K. was at the front 32 days one time giving and receiv¬ ing messages with flags. He is now- going to school learning the same and reading maps. Too bad, neith¬ er had the privilege of killing a Hun. If it be true that there is nothing certain except death and taxes, it is equally true that there is nothing more uncertain than the weather. Some one has said that it is as unsafe to follow with weather speculation as to twist the tail of a sleeping cat, on one point all are agred.that win¬ ter has been dawdling and failed to give an account of itself. Almost everything else -has been forgotten in the stress of the times, and possibly we may be justifiable in blaming this on the war, or the absorbing issues of the Peace Conference. Here, with one week of February gone, winter has failed to deliver al- nost any snow at all; that fake prog nosticator ruled for a change on the 2nd, but balmy days followed and much of the time we have spring weather, daffodills, trailing arbutus and song-birds included. Only the return of wild geese northward is lacking among the things that her¬ ald the approach of spring. Time enough yet, you say. Well, if winter should get ever so busy, it has only a slight part of its legiti¬ mate portion of the year in which to revel and the chances of the iceman and the small boy with his sled are greatly reduced. No one has been seriously disa ppointed at winter's tardiness, and there have been so many advantages that a real blow¬ out in March can be tolerated. He may hold in stock some heavy "de¬ liveries", but one of our local prog- nosticators says that the moon is too far south to admit of anything real serious during February. He thus risks his rep., In spite of the fact that some of our best citizens have chis winter suffered losss of prestige along the same Y. W. C. SrCAMPAIGN /In order that it may meet vastly increased responsibilities due in large measure to the great world war the Y. W. C. A. , from Feb. 6 to 17th inclusive, will sound a countrywide ppeal for one million dollars. Of ;kis sum which is to go for field and lational support, Virginia, one of the five states in the South Atlantic Held, is asked to contribute a propor¬ tionate share amounting to $16,5S0. fhe allottment for Highland county Is only $50. Possibly there may be some who .viil ask, "Why doesn't the Y. W. C. .V. use the Funds it received from the J. W. W. '£.? The answer lies in the fact tha^t these funds are con¬ trolled by a Government Committee -iid can be used for nothing but War Work, and so defined by them. What is it forN? For instance, to¬ day 5,000,000 girls living outside Lhe cities of the Union demand at- .entiou. New situations, and new problems, in many instances having .10 diiect connection with the sol- .liers and sailors and similar calls. ¦v^Miss Evelyn Jones has been ap¬ pointed Chairman for the county, Miss Bess Bishop, Treasurer. It is hoped that the Solicitors for the va¬ rious partsof the county will receive the co-operation of our people. In Memoriam Howard Boyd Bodkin born August 21, 1897, died January 18, 1919, age 21 years, 4 mos., and 18 days. His death was due to influenza fol¬ lowed by pneumonia. He leaves to mourn his loss an aged father moth¬ er 4 sisters and three brothers, Mrs., I-Iarrie Rexrode, of Parnassus Mrs.. G. J. Crummett, of Palo Alto, Martin E., Camp Mead, Cora, Laura, Pinck- ney, Delfert at home, besides he leaves a host of friends and relatives. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. He was a member of the Brethren church for several years and was always ready to help in church work and any one in need. He was a loving brother and a kind friend. By a Sister FOR SALE .

urer Willis Gibson:Willie Benson, in France, expected

John R. Siaven, son of the lateHenry A. Siaven is in the army of

Hubert Jordan, nephew of Mr.Gibson, whose home is in Pocahontaswas in a hospital when he wrote.He had received five wounds, proba¬bly from a bursting shell, one ofwhich was still giving him trouble.
Miller Bishop, of the aviationbranch of the service, is expected toreach New York at any time, thedate set for sailing being about Feb.28. He is a son of Mr. and Mrs.V. B. Bishop, of Monterey.
William Dickson has written homethat he expects to sail soon forAmerica.'
Below are a few remarks concern¬
ing two Highland boys.Mech. A. R.Gum and Corp. R. K. Gum, (bros.)to let their relatives and friendsknow how they came out of thegreat conflict. Neither of them hadbeen sick a single day- since theywent into training, and while theywere both at the front several times,neither got a scratch, probably, dueto their not having to go into thefiring line. R. K. was at the front32 days one time giving and receiv¬ing messages with flags. He is now-
going to school learning the same
and reading maps. Too bad, neith¬er had the privilege of killing a Hun.
If it be true that there is nothingcertain except death and taxes, it isequally true that there is nothingmore uncertain than the weather.Some one has said that it is as unsafeto follow with weather speculationas to twist the tail of a sleeping cat,on one point all are agred.that win¬ter has been dawdling and failed togive an account of itself. Almosteverything else -has been forgotten inthe stress of the times, and possiblywe may be justifiable in blaming thison the war, or the absorbing issuesof the Peace Conference.
Here, with one week of Februarygone, winter has failed to deliver al-nost any snow at all; that fake prognosticator ruled for a change on the2nd, but balmy days followed andmuch of the time we have springweather, daffodills, trailing arbutusand song-birds included. Only thereturn of wild geese northward islacking among the things that her¬ald the approach of spring.
Time enough yet, you say. Well,if winter should get ever so busy, ithas only a slight part of its legiti¬mate portion of the year in which torevel and the chances of the icemanand the small boy with his sled are
greatly reduced. No one has beenseriously disa ppointed at winter'stardiness, and there have been so
many advantages that a real blow¬out in March can be tolerated. Hemay hold in stock some heavy "de¬liveries", but one of our local prog-nosticators says that the moon is toofar south to admit of anything realserious during February. He thusrisks his rep., In spite of the factthat some of our best citizens havechis winter suffered losss of prestigealong the same

Possibly there may be some who.viil ask, "Why doesn't the Y. W. C..V. use the Funds it received from theJ. W. W. '£.?
