Mud all dried up and farmers

spring work.
Wednesday evening a meeting
was held in Hagerman hall, when
a person leaned against bench
set on top of another and used for a
table and upset lamp which broke
on the floor, scattering burning oil
around. No one seemed to be
frightened nor excited and efforts
were made to extinguish the fire.
One party with great presence of
mind drew out an overcoat that
was lying under his own and calm
ly unrolled the coat and proceeded
to beat out the flames with his
neighbors coat and saved the hall.
Presence of mind in face of danger
is to be commended, and often re-
warded with medals of merit. We
have peice of oak taned sole leath-
er of which we will donate enough
to make the party leather medal.
