BERLIN.
Mrs. Butler is again able to walk
around after having been quite i'll for
several weeks.
A Sunday school has been started
this spring at the home of Cornelius
Fehr and meets in the afternoon at three
o'clock.
One of the newcomers this spring is a
Mr.. Baes, who is moving with his family
from Minnesota onto farm bought early
in the spring.
The school teacher of School No. 3 is
making her home With the family of
Abrahem krohn. having been there since
the first of the month.
About the highest priced "bike" in
vested in around here this spring is
owned by John Derkson, but he says
that it will beat walking anyhow.
A number of neat book cases are be-
ing made for the various schools of the
township. The work is quite credit to
the carpenter, who happens to be G. j.
Wall.
William Krohn is another of the boys
around here who has invested in high
geared wheel this spring and expects to
make the pace hot enough for the fastest
of them.
P. j. Derkson has this spring blown
himself for new bicycle with which
he expects to be able to show the boys a
few new tricks of how to get around and
see the girls.
ID. Wall is having to ma mage to get
along with one horse less than usual in
his springs work as the broncho that he
uses once in while is laid up with a
sore shoulder.
ii. Wallis wife is on the sick list at
the present time but the family have
hopes that with the approach of warm
spring like weather she will soon be able
to be around again.
Some of the jealous ones have it that
G. ]. Wall will pick out life partner
while he is knocking around the country
looking for work and seeing where the
youth and beauty of the settlement is to
be found.
Our farmers expect to get through
sowing wheat this week and put in the
balance of the land plowed to oats and
barley within the next few days. The
acreage of flax in this vicinity will be
small this year.
We learn there has been quite little
sickness around the Rosehill settlement
this spring. One of the worst cases is
that of Mr.. Fl. Reimer. From the last
report heard there is not much pro-
liability of his getting better.
G. Spenst is tearing down the old home
in which himself and family have spent
the many years that have passed since
they came to the country. He will put
up fine farm home on the site of the
old house during the summer.
David Fehr is here for visit with the
family Of his brother, Cornelius Fehr,
and other friends. On the Manitoba
side of the line, where he is now located,
himself and family are we'll suited and
find themselves, among quite number
of old friends.
c. 1. Wall has it all figured out that
he will be able to make more money this
summer working out for some one else
than he would to put in crop for him
self. The demand for men this year is
better than it has been for number of
years past and men as rule are being
paid better wages.
Since having got his own crop in the
ground Cornelius Fehr has been helping
his neighbor, Mr.. Karssin, to get good
start. 1t will not be long now before all
the farmers around here will be turning
their attention to breaking, and lots of it
will be done owing to there being 80
little water on the land.
