We're among those who were to APP
pear i'll the program of the Farmers
County Institute convened in Audu-
bon last week Quite goodly rep
resentation from our township.
Frank White and family from near
Hamlin moved last week into the
house OH q which was recently re-
paired and much improved We well
come them into our midst. We are
glad to note that ii good name as we'll
as a bad one usually proceeds the
b.arer
Mrs. Marion Mcintyre was called to
Stockton, ILL.,, last Thursday by a tele
gram announcing the death of her
aged father. The blow comes doubly
heavy and sad. Two weeks ago we AL
nounced the death of her mother and
this additional grief following so soon
commands our deepest sympathy.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. belong gave a
farewell evening party to their many
friends on Friday evening of last week
The descriptive index to your possible
partner for supper was quite interest
ing. The auction sale occasioned some
confusion among dealers and for Il
while wild speculations were rife. How.
ever, everybody came out ahead and
without exception we believe, was the
feeling of regret OH the part Of each
one present that our social relations
with such good friends and neighbors
must soon be severed.
The entertainment at the church last
Thursday evening was well attended
by most appreciative audience. An
original poem by Miss May Hunt in
which were related the incidents Of a
Thanksgiving oyster supper OF dark
night, was most favorably received. A
frame drill by twelve children was a
very interesting feature. Other fea-
lures of the program were worthy of
merit. The oyster supper following
was well patromized. Aside from the
lateness of the hours general expires
sion of satisfaction seemed to prevail.
