n this column, you will read where Justine hopes the local
residents will be flu free.. .Here I sit with tissue in hand, aspirin,
cold tablets, etc. Two weeks of mere misery, waiting for the
common cold to fade. It seems that almost everyone has a
sure-fire cure; Eilene has brand WHR, Wil used WXY, Charlene
ljked TOW, Janene still has her cold, but thinks 7x7 was the best
cold tablet (alias drink). We even have gone as far as to ask
Mark and Earl at the corner drug store what they would
recommend. This columnist may have listened to all the advice
given to her, but before the week is over, she will be a veteran of
the first fall cold and be able to give free advice, too. We may be
flu free this year, but the cold Is here to stay. .

'.First and foremost on my mind this week is, VOTE November

apd voting is the only sure way we have to tell our political
people the way we feel about the way they are running our
nation...

fToday, through the mail, we received a letter from the Farm

for brownies that will be published in the national Cooking &
Crafts new book. Cathy said she entered the recipe over two
years ago and this is the first time she had even known it was in
the book.,.By the way, the name in the book is Mrs. Peggy
Morter, not Cathy.

Old graves marked
Thirteen persons working
under the auspices of the
Morrow County Historical
Society marked eight pioneer
graves on Wednesday, Octo
ber 20.
Using the Rhea Creek
Grange Hall as a work center
and noon dinner stop, Harold
Becket, Bryce Keene, Cecil
Jones, John Wood, Rachel
Harnett, Elsa Leathers and
Albert Wright worked at lo
cating and marking the
graves.
Delpha Jones, Louise
Keene, Ruth McCabe, Ruby
Becket, Louise Wood and
Florence McMillan provided a
fine noon meal.
The grave marking crew
traveled up Rhea Creek to the
Albert Wright Ranch and then
up to the old Henry Scher
zinger Homestead (Rachel's
childhood home). There they
placed a marker on a fence
line by a rock crib on the hill
right of the ravine. There is a
large, round stone there near
the burial plot of two unknown
pioneer children who died of
diptheria.
Next, they drove to Hard
man and out highway 207
about two miles to the Eugene
Chapel Homestead. A marker
was placed near a rock crib on
the highway fence near where
an old shed still stands. This
marker defines the grave of
Teddy Roosevelt Chapel, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene
Chapel.
The group then proceeded to
the Rueben Allen Ranch along
the Toll Rock Road. They
stopped at the Toll Rock to
take pictures, and then went
on to the Rueben Allen graves
on land which was later known
as the Bill Greener Ranch.
They took pictures of the
graves and placed a marker
for Mr. and Mrs. Rueben Allen
and for their granddaughter
Roberts, who died In infancy.
The little girl was the daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Stacey
Roberts. The group also
repaired the picket fence
around the three graves.
Their next stop was up
Board Creek in the Parker's
Mill area where they placed a
marker about one-half mile
south of the junction on

the mountains to the Hamilton
Ranch. There they discovered
that they needed further help
