One OF the handsomest, as
well as one of the most enjoyable So
cial functions of the year, was the
surprise party given to Mr.. and Mrs.
John Thauer, at their home in this
city, last Friday evening. The sur
prise was very cleverly planned and
the worthy couple were completely
surprised when about forty couples
called in body on them in the even

the occasion and entertained their
guests admirably. An excellent sup
per was served and the evening was
enjoyed by all present.--Juneau In

Traders and manufacturers can sell
only when wage earners can buy, and
in proportion to their buying power.
