FIRM NAME CHANGED.
..With the coming of the new year,
there comes a new name written in
the business world of Perrysburg.
Mr. A. C. Fuller, who has been ver
successful in business in Perrysburg,
feeling a desire and need of more op
portunity for rest and desiring to be
relieved of some of the burdens of
business for many years, has decided
to take into the firm his two eldest
sons, Harry and Frank. They have
become identified with the business a
clerks and proving themselves most
capable, they are now recognized as
members of the firm which will here
after be known as, A. C. Fuller &
Sons.
This is a deserved recognition of
the ability of the young men, and we
predict for the new firm a brilliant
and prosperous future.
SUBSCRIBES $150,000.
With a subscription totaling $150,
000, the Willys-Overland Company of
Toledo, manufacturer of the Overland
car, has pledged its support to the
Ocean-to-Ocean Highway. The same
pro rata levy which has governed the
subscriptions of other manufacturers
applies in this case, and the Overland
Company expresses itself as being
enthusiastically in favor of the Ocean-to-Ocean
Highway extending from
New York to San Francisco.
Mrs. A. R. Tabor, of Crider, Mo.,
had been troubled with sick headache
for about five years, when she began

ODD FELLOWS TOLL
Officers for 1913 atiU'Enjoy Pleasant
Social Reunion.
The installation "of officers of Ft
Meigs lodge I. O. O. F., held at their
lodge room last Friday night was one
of the most pleasing fraternal social
events of the season.
The ceremonies of installation were
under the direction of Thomas H. Tin
ney as Deputy Grand Master, and he
was ably assisted by Dr. D. R. Can
field as Deputy Grand Marshal.
The officers installed were as fol
lows: Noble Grand C. H. Hanson.
Vice Grand O. T. Davis.
Secretary Chas. A. Braun.
Treasurer Fred Jezzard.
R. S. A. Y. Phillips.
L. S. D. Simmons.
Warden H. E. Fuller.
Conductor Chas. H. VanNorman.
R. S. S. F. E. Fox.
L. S. S. A. G. Williams.
0. G. J. S. Fuller.
1. G. A. J. Emch.
Chaplain Fred Jezzard.
Trustee For three years, R. T.
Brittain.
After the installation a social ses
sion was held which was addressed by
Rev. E. J. Webster, followed with
music by the Fuller orchestra.
Miss Gladys Leydorf then gave a
recitation in a very pleasing manner.
An orchestral selection followed.
The next number was a vocal solo
most charmingly rendered by Miss
Zelma Brittain, ably accompanied by
Miss Lillian Simmons.
A very pleasing piano solo wa3 well
rendered by Miss Hazel Braun.
Another orchestral number was
charmingly renderfcd,"which -Was fol
lowed by a piano solo by Miss May
Rhodes, which a pleasing number of
tha programme.
Following this program the guests
were invited to partake of a most
bountiful and excellent banquet which
indicated very plainly that the Odd
Fellows know how to entertain in a
manner that could be appreciated by
all.
During the latter part of the even
ing there was considerable orchestra
music, after which Alvin Phillips
furnished a little of the kind of music
that makes the old boys feel skittish
and if there was somo dancing no one
could be blamed for doing so, cause
Phillips' fiddle told them to.
If all our fraternal orders would
give such open house meetings there
would be much more of the friendly,
real fraternal spirit engendered
among our people.
WANT THE SUNSHINE.
A letter from H. P. Lucas of Berke
ley, California, says: "Just now we
are having a taste of Ohio winter
weather snow and ice. Some people
are enjoying this weather, but the
most of us would rather have the sun
shine." Telegraph news states that Cali
fornia was badly frosted last week,
and as usual Californians are apolo
gizing for the bad behaviour of the
weather and using their stereotyped
phrase "It's very unusual." This ex
pression is worked threadbare in the
coast cities, every time a westener
speaks disparagingly of the climatic
conditions of California.

prominent citizens and business men
of Litchfield, answered death's sum
mons in a room of his hospital. He

and the Meeker County Medical

Dr. Robertson came to this city with

tive in all matters concerning the wel

ment in Ripley Cemetery.
As a token of respect the stores and
public schools were closed during the
funeral services.
Many Perrysburg friends will re
member Dr. Robertson as a boy and
young man in Perrysburg whose de
lightful personality made him a
favorite with all who knew him, and
all will regret the untimely demise of
one who had done much good for
those about him and who had won an
enviable name and position in life.
The weather man did his best to put
the Perrysburg Farmers' Institute out
of business last Monday, but did not
succeed.
There was a very good attendance
considering that it was one of the
worst storms of the season.
The regular program Was followed
and the lectures and musical features
of entertainment were of a high order
of merit.
The evening program was very
entertaining and was enjoyed by a
good audience considering the terrific
storm that prevailed at the time.
When the sunshine of Tuesday
morning brightened the world the
farmers came out in goodly numbers
and the general attendance was bet
ter than the day previous.
The session was one in which most
excellent instruction was obtained
through the lectures and discussions
and the fact that the farmers and
their families attended gave evidence
that the Z?firrysburg farmers are
alive to the great benefit to be de
rived from knowledge along the line
of .progressive development in farm
ing. The officers elected were as fol
lows: President T. H. Tumey.
Sec'y and Treas. E. J. Craine.

Brittan and Wm. Burdo.

sided over the meetings.

The association is for the purpose,
chiefly, of bringing Perrysburg citi

in behalf of the welfare of the town.

ing of an original poem by Mr. F. E.
Woodin in which that versatile gentle
man outdid himself and greatly de
lighted young and old. Another "sur
prise" was the presenting of a sub
stantial purse to Rev, George Lowr
by the members of the Sunday School
and church. The whole programmo
was well rendered and full of intoresi
from beginning to end. The two beau
tiful vocal selections of Miss Drach

for a company which built gas plants
and finally returning with her to
Cleveland and continuing to work and
