One of the prettiest sights that has
gladdened our ewes for many n long
day, was the crowd of little ones, who
gathered in Mrs. r. s. Happersett's
ward. Friday afternoon July q, to eel
citrate the birthdays of little Gladys
Northrup and Marie Happersett which
occur only day or two apart.
A delightfully."- cool afternoon made
the children's games doubly enjoyable
and several hammOcks were favOrite
resting places for tired little tots. A
simple but delicious supper was serv-
ed in the yard, after the sun went
down, and dainty little souvenir boxes
of bon bOns were distributed just as
the little ones were ready to go home.
The guests presented each of their lit
tie hostesses with white porcelain
vases and rose bowls and silver coffee
spoons. Those present were Edna and
Alva Duncan, Bessie Beck. Irene Tay-
lor, Louise DeClute. Annie Ewart,
Flossie Munger, Dorothy Foust, Hazel

HAPPY HOME CLOTHINGI
The Board of county commissioners
met Monday, according to law, to
make the annual tax levy. Slight
changes were made in various funds,
but the aggregate for county and
State purposes was the same as last
year. The two most interesting
changes were the omission Of the
bridge levy, and the levy of ID cents
on the hundred dollars for the creation
of sinking fund to provide for the
payment of the county railroad bonds.
These bonds, to the amount of S136, 900
come due in 1900 If the levy made
this year is continued, the fund at
that time will amount toabout $4,000.
The board is of the opinion that il we
have that amount TO pay on the bonds
it will be easier to refund the remain
der of the debt at q low rate Of interest
than it would be if we showed no dis
position to pay anything. The board
is doubtless right in this opinion and
we have no doubt that their action
will be approved by the people. In
addition to making the levy the board
appointed viewers for ssthe road petit
toned for by G.. f. Robins and others,
of Usage w. A. Cowan and L. b.
Kinne were appointed to assist the
Probate Judge in the quarterly ex-
animation of the county treasury.
