Cyrus Lanyon returned last week
from an extended trip through Iowa,

reports pleasant time; but is con

for quite a number of years, having
been born here sometime in the fOrtieS,
we believe, and has never been dis
satisfied with the town. He is not one
of the chronic grumblers AS he SAYS
himself, he very much prefers this
fertile region to places where they
have to call a meeting Of citizens to
devise ways and means to raise white
beans.

tor of st. Gabriel's church, is winning

one. His sermon a few nights ago in
st Roses church was grand effort
and delighted his hearers"
