Rumely

Brookville American, 1912

Wm. Mettle tried his new Rumely threshing machine last Saturday at his home west of Laurel. It did the work fine.

Mr. Mettle is going to start out on his long trip of threshing early Monday morning. The wheat is good grain -- much better than was expected after the hard, cold winter.

A large crowd of lively folks spent Sunday at the country home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Shera. All kinds of sport was indulged in and in the evening Mr. Shera took the merry crowd to the home of Ralph Weber and wife, east of Laurel, on a hayride where all enjoyed the evening with music and son until a late hour -- Even Grandma Reiboldt said she had one of the most pleasant times of her life.

Grandma Reiboldt is staying with her daughter Mrs. Ralph Weber. Grandma has not been very well for some time but her many friends will be pleased to know that her health is somewhat improved.

The primary class of the Mt. Carmel Methodist Sunday School (Bertha Major, teacher) gave a picnic in Clarkson's woods Saturday. All reported a good time.
