This is to notify the general public that we have just
installed one of the best and most up- to- date feed
grinders that it is possible for brains to produce and
money to buy. It is the latest model Bauer Bros. ball
bearing attrition mill and is operated by electricity.
Folks, honestly, we are proud of this mechanism and
would like for all of you to see it operate. It is cap-able
of GRINDING 125 BUSHELS PER HOUR, and
the rbest of it is it is really ground after passing thru
this mill and not merely crushed. Our price for
grinding is 7c per bushel.
Feeders! Stock Men!
We also have a small supply of extra good yellow
ear and shelled corn. See us for what you will need
for this corn is about a thing of the past.
Just one more time let us urge you to put in your

we like to fill You while we can suit you. Lay it in
now and let the other fellow worry.

Mr. Howard was born in Rush county,
March 7, 1841, being 78 years and 5
months of age at the time death came.
In 1353, he with his parents moved
fro. Rush county to a farm one mile
west of West Liberty. In later years
he bought the farm, on which he re-sided
until death. In 1868 he was
married to Miss Hannah Wheeler. To
this union were born nine children, six
of whom are living, namely, Mrs. Cora
McGuire of Lancaster, Ohio, Mrs.
Louise Louiso and Mrs. Blanche Arm-strong
of Portland, Oregon, Mrs. Etta
Dean and Charles Howard of Windfall.
Mr. Howard having lost his wife while
the children were young, served as a
loving father and mother until the
children were grown, and after they
were married and gone, he sought an-other
companionand was married to
Mrs. Elizabeth Hall in 1903, who came
from Indianapolis and lived happy
with him in his country home. He
was a member of the Christian church
at Windfall. Funeral services were
conducted at Phlox Monday at two
o'clock, by Rev. Gehres of Windfall,
with burial in Ellis cemetery near this
place.
BRUNK- FUNK REUNION.
About ninety members of the Brunk
and Funk families gathered at the
Kokomo City Park Sunday for their
sixth annual reunion. Special inter-est
was attached to this reunion be-cause
of the presence of Chauncey
Gossett and family of Portland, Ore-gon.
Mr. Gossett left Indiana about
thirty- eight years ago, having lived
two miles north of Sycamore. They
are moving to Indianapolis and will
be residents of the Hoosier state once
more. " Uncle" John Brunk, the only
one of the older members of the fam-ily
surviving, was present. Most of
the members of these families live
in Liberty and Jackson townships.
After exchanging greetings, the en-tire
company sat down to a bountiful
picnic dinner and then spent the re-mainder
of the day visiting. The old
officers, consisting of J. B. Gossett,
president, and Mrs. Mollie Brunk as
secretary, will hold over for another
year. C. B. F. Clark is vice president
and Mrs. W. P. Thompson treasurer.
It was decided to hold the 1929 re-union
at the same place the third
Sunday in August.
No Hooverized menu was in evi-dence
when at the noon hour one of
the long park tables was loaded with
all the eatables of the season. After
dinner a picture was taken of the
group by an experienced artist. The
secretary is compiling a history of
the five generations, which will no
doubt prove very interesting to the
immediate- fandlics.
The following relatives were pres-ent
Sunday: John Brunk, Jacob Gos-sett
and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Dora
Dill and children Emery, Pearl, Ber-nice,
Delbert and Nancy, Mr. and
Mrs. Aubrey Brumfiel and children
Clarence and Velma, Mr. and Mrs.
John Antrim and sons Gale and Ger-ald,
Mrs. Ellis Cates and daughter
Dorothy, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Brunk

A CL ASS PICNIC.
The Sunday School class of Mrs.
Kate Hall planned their annual class
picnic for last Wednesday to be held
on the banks of the Wildcat on Joe
Ha worth's farm. Rain interfered with
the plans, and so the picnic was held
in the basement of the Methodist
church. The children enjoyed many
games, but the leading feature was
the dinner. It seems that for some
inexplainable reason, the class in-creased
materially that day, espec-ially
with respect to adult members.
Mrs. Hall's class is normally compos-ed
of girls ranging from 11 to 13,
but on picnic day older boys and girls
came as well. Among those who en-joyed
the day and dinner with Mrs.
Hall were; John S. Hall, Mr. and
