The shade trees that give their
greatful shade to the walks about our
city are the source of great deal Of
comfort to our people, and naturally
draw many words Of praise from visit
ing strangers. A recent drive around
the block in which is located the home
Of VIM. Kellow Jr., directed our at
tention to the magnificent row of sugar
naples that extend on all sides of his
ample grounds. In his grove at the
north part Of his grounds, with its
beautiful grass plat, is an ideal place
for Sunday school pic mic, clean,
cool, shady and convenient and per
mission to use.
The sacred concert given in the
U. N. l.. church on Friday evening
was in its selections and their rendl-
tion, one of the best of the season.
Every number was appropriate and
finely given. The choir from Luther
College, Decorah, acquitted itself
with credit and but for the injunction
at the foot of the program "No
Applause" would have been loudly
cheered. And what is said of the De-
corah visitors taking part may be
truthfully spoken of the home talent
taking part in the concert. The
church was packed full and we hope
the society realized handsome sum
because so good an entertainment is
entitled to this public appreciation.
