Its 400 citizens, who ldng Aave en- dured the scorn of their bigger neighbor, Canal Winchester, which has schools and other taings are preparing to return such disparage- ment in kind—all because the sim- ple appeal of their quict village sbridged the gap of years in the hearts of one who played as a caild” + ain the leafy lanes that surround it. Lithopolis 1s preparing for Tecognis tion, and a certain modicum o} fame. The story centers around Mrs. Mabel Wagnalls-Jones, New York author and musician, whose father, Adam W.- Wagnalls, is head of a New York publisaing house, Her father and mother were born. here and the latter is buried in the Lith- opolis cemetery. Mrs. Jones is presenting a memor- ial library to the people of Lithopo- MORE FLAX SEED URGED a BY EXPERTS lis and Bloom Township. In addi- tion; she may finance the efection of a high school, and has in mind oth- er civic improvements. With her husband, Richard J. Jones, she has completed a prelimin- ary survey for the library, which will be known as the Wagnalls ‘Memorial Library; has purghased a tract of land~on Columbus street here—the only street—and employ- ed an architect. Present plans call for the dedicatory address to be made next fal] by Edwin Markaam, poet, a close friend of both Mr. and Mrs. Jones. In 1903, Mrs, Jones, then Mabel Wagnalls, was paying ber annual summer “visit to Lithépolis. She had refi a Magazine story by 0. Henry, and was struck with the beauty of it. She wrote to O. Henry’s publishers, and the note was for- warded to him. Thus was-started a chain -of cor- respondence between O. Henry and Mabel Wagnalls~ The erection of the library is ex- pected to link closer the part Ohio played in the unfolding of O. Henry’s genius.

Dean Coffey explain! that last year there was, consumed in tae United States 32,000,000 bushels of 2 while only about 8,000,000 shels were produced in the coun- try, the remainder being imported. With a good protective tariff bene- fitting flax growers‘in this country, and with an average price of more than $2 a busael for the past ten ‘years, Dean Coffey predicts lucrative returns from the growing of fiaxseed . for years to come, with the produc- tion-difficulties obviated. : Experiments have proven that farmers get better returns when flax | wheat are grown together, on 1 average of about 80 pounds of wheat and 28 pounds of flax seed- ings to tae acre, the dean stated. The crop is harvested with the wheat, bound, shocked and. stacked like wheat, id threshed with tae latter grain. 44 Separation of the seeds threshing is not difficult, their dissimilarity, < Also, growing in this manner eliminates much of (2 weed menace and gives » cleaner after ‘VISITING MOTHER Berlin, Jan. 23.—Zita, former Press of Austria} has been visiting, \ hey mother, the Duchess of Pari «\in"Bavaria for the last two month: Vand probably remain with the duchess for several weeks longer.

That was in the early part of January, 1896, just 27 years ago, when its obstreperous tone shattered windows in buildings near the church and it was agreed that the tower was in grave danger ‘of collapsing.
