Recently the Observer had occasion to take a pleasint faunt with a man, well past the four-score year mark, through the district in which the lat- ter had spent his boyhood days, sev- enty-five years and more ago. The | district was in Flanders, between the | Shuttle Meadow district and South- fngton. Close to the roadway stands what is left of a once noble old New England farmhouse. Glant oaks that 75 years ugo were but little seedlings, rustle their mournful, droning tune, standing guard over the ruins. The house fit- self is weather-beaten, its clapboards falling away in places, but few of the shingles covering the old roof, most of the windows boarded up, other windows, the lights brokeny staring out vacantly, while all around the house rank vegetation bespeaks the deserted home. The old well curb is gone, the little portico over the front door is gone, there remaining only the great stone step, worn by the treading of feet of several generations. Inside, all is ruin. The mammoth fireplaces are falling into dust, the floor boards are rotting, the ceilings are falling in and the while the wind moans weirdly through the vacant rooms. Reminiscences of another day and n earlier and almost forgotten gen- eration, from the lips of the Observ- er's companion, construct a very dif- ferent mental picture than the one that actually greets the eye. The house is well constructed, glistening in its red paint with white trimmings. The young saplings in, front are bursting forth in bud, while the lilac bushes around the front door and north windows are aglow with blos- soms and the tiger lilies in the front vard are nodding lazily in the sun- shine. From far out in the fleld come the sharp cries of the farmer as he guides his faithful plow horse over the ground, while from the kitchen in the rear comes the cheerful singing of the housewife as she attends to her daily duties.

Mr. Ferguson concentrated on charges that Mr. May- fleld was the candidate of the Ku Klux Klan.

The office of probate judge is more intimately assoclated with every man and woman in the city because influence of its authority reaches into every home, executing the will of fhose who have passed be- yond and often stabilizing and paci- fying disgruntled groups and individ- uals.
