Severe lint StormThe most severe liail storm that ev ¬

day evening about 7 oclock Thestones were all larger than usualsome-of them measuring over an inch in di¬

ameter Small vegetation sufferedgreatly while leaves were strippedfrom the trees glass broken and flow ¬

ers and shrubbery almost ruinedThe storm lasted about twenty min¬

utes The wheat came in for roughhandling but farmers tell us it is notseriously injured

Special NoticeThe Telephone Co asks The Rec-

ord¬

to again call attention of users ofphones to the importance of ringing

off when through talking Unless yougive a short ring when you hang upthe receiver the lines are left connect-ed then when either party calls forCentral it calls up the other end ofthe line thereby causing confusionand annoyance to the people at theother end of the line This causes notrouble to the operators at centralbut it does to owners of phones Ifyou want to save yourself trouble al ¬

ways ring off

Greatly BehindThe farmers were never far be ¬

hind with their Spring work Themany hard rains have kept the groundtoo wet to plow and in fact havebeen so hard that it was impossible todo any work out doors Onlya verysmall portion of ground has been bro ¬

ken When Old Sol does decide tocome out and dry up the earth thefarmers will hustle as they never didbefore While this is worrying themconsiberably it is well to rememberthat the One who is running theworld knows just about what it needsand He is going to do what He thinksis best for all His people So dontworry over what you cant understandalong this line

Interesting PropertyThe Doores house on Water street

advertised to be sold Monday has alittle bit of interesting history It isone of the oldest residences in Lancaster When first built it was occupiedby Hon Sam McKee then by ChiefJustice Robertson then by GovernorLetcher Immediately after theirmarriage each of these distinguishedgentlemen began housekeeping thisresidence Stranger still each waselected to Congress while residingthere The house is still in a goodstate of preservation and bids fair tolast many years longer It will besold Monday to settle the Doores es-

tate one of the heirs having died

The School Census

The law requires the school censusto be taken during April No matterwhat time in the month it is taken itshould be taken as of the first day o

the month Jf a family lived in thedistrict pn April 1st bufr has sincemoved away the trustee should listhis children If any family has mov ¬

ed into the district since that timethe children should not be listed asthey have already been listedwhere else Any other method woulbe obviously unfair as some childrenwould be listed twice and others notat all The school year begins July1st and the childrens ages should betaken as on that date For instancea cnlld maybe less than six years of

now hut if he will be six before luly1st take the name On the othe-hand leave off the nama of any ahllwho will be twenty by th tlmeevenif not that old when the census is to-

Will Do Good WorkThe Garrard Civic League is having

the regard and cooperation of thebest citizenship of the county in away that means best results for thewelfare of our people The federationof the Garrard League with those ofadjoining counties will be one of themost far reaching forces against viceand crime that Central Kentucky hasknown for a century

The Sensible ViewSpeaking of the proposition to erect

an uptodate Court House in place ofthe present rattle trap at Stanfordthe Interior Journal says There iscertified for taxation in the countyover 6750000 Would it beextravagant for an individual worth alikeamount to live in a building costing40000 especially if the one he now

occupies is a deadfall liable not onlyto kill him but destroy all the evi ¬

dences of his prosperity

Lets Hope for the ButThe hotel people are selling out

their furniture etc so it looks asthough there will be nothing doing onthe burned corner by the presentcompany There is a hen on we un ¬

derstand for a building of anothercharacter There are several otherplaces near the square on which a ho-tel could be built and when somemonied citizens conclude to invest alittle cash at home Lancaster mayget out of the suds again at any ratelets hope so-
