Saturday was the birthday of Miss
lnger Boberg, who teaches at No. /,
Sharon township, and number of
friends gathered at her boarding
house, Jens Schouboe's, and spent the
evening in such manner that she
will always pleasantly remember the
event.
Last Sunday number of friends
and neighbors of Mr.. and Mrs. Nels
Petersen gathered at her home to help
her to celebrate her eighth
birthday. They all had merry good
time and left as remembrance a nice
hanging lamp TO light the darkness of
their home, as their friendship has lit
their path with happiness all along.
