Interested in this meeting and should

We publish Mr.. Schaefer's state
ment in full, that his view Of the sub.
ject may be understood, only adding
BY way Of explanation, that several per-
sons, who attend the Worthington
Congregational Church and Sunday
School every Sunday they are able to
DO 50, also attend the Boldly Sunday
School. They live in the neighborhood
IN which it is held, and are especially
interested in the good work in the vi
cinity Of their own homes. In being
counted with the Boldly school they
were innocent Of any intention to be
unfair. They are bona nde members
Of the Boldly Sunday school, and; sup
posed they were not precluded from he:
ing In line because they also attended
a Worthington school. not competing.
II any persons were drawn into the pro-
cession from any Worthington school
not in good faith belonging to the
Boldly school and were put there to
swell the numbers improperly, tho
editor Of the Advance is not aware of
the fact.
On Friday night one Of the pleasant
est lawn parties ever witnessed was
held on the beautiful lawn in front of
the Hotel at Kushmore. The house
and grounds were elegantly draped
with flags and bunting, the work
chiefly Of Mr.. and MIS-. Sc'haefer. The
exercises consisted of music by the
Adrian Band, Panic music by Mrs.
Schaefer, and the Guitar by Mr.. viii
Wemple, Mr.. Hardie proved himself
master OF the Harmonic music. One
piece in particular where Mrs. Schaefer
at the panio, Mr.. Will Wemple on the
Guitar and Mr.. Ben Randall on the
Bones, was >splendidly executed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Schaefer were much sur.
prised to see so many of their friends
from ~Werthington and Adrian, and
Mr.. Sehaefer made q neat speech from
the veranda thanking them for their
presence. After this Mrs. Schaefer and
her sister, Mrs. Booth of Sioux Falls,
favored the company with very fine
vocal music. There were elegant re-.
freshments, ice cream. cake lemonade,
etc. The gathering was called in the
interest of the NJ. E. church of Rush
moreand a handsome sum was realized.
Rushmore has way of getting up good
entertainments, and Worthington peo-
pie need only to 0e informed of them to
be attracted to them.

here while conducting a teachers In
stitute, some years ago, and looking
after II farm which he owns in this
county. He is a very intelligent gen.

tlonal matters he is an authority. We
were curious enough to ask his opinion
of the Worthington School Building,
and it will interest our people to read
that opinion in his own words, as
follows:
The new school building of Worth
ington will equal in convenience and
beauty any school building have seen

arrangement of rooms, stairways. light,
heat and ventilation are in accordance
with the latest approved idea of school
