A Surprise.

b. w. Carr, deputy grand master,
I. o. o. F. for this district was very
agreeably surprised last Saturday
nj ght by the Odd Fellows and Rebek-
abs. The surprise was more complete
from the fact that the Rebekahs had
called meeting for the hall for that
evening and Ben" as an especial IA
vor to the fair Rebekahs opened the
hall and built the fires and after wait
ing reasonable length Of time and
no one appearing, went home vowing
oil kinds Of vengence, only to find
there assembled the Rebekahs and
their husbands.
Ben threatened all kinds OF things
but philosophically awaited his fate.
An enjoyable time was had, together
with the bountiful repast served by the
Rebekahs, and the toasts by the Odd
Fellows. The party presented Mr..
Carr with valuable present in the
form of q rocking chair, as token OF
their appreciation of his services as a
deputy and his persistent work toward
the upbuilding of the order in this
city. The evening was one of the
milestones in the life of this worthy
Odd Fellow. Mr.. Carr is recognized
not only in this city but throughout
this entire district as one of the best
deputies in the state.

est was manifested and we have no
doubt the organization will succeed
and result in much good to the men,
bers and stock raisers generally.

Iowa Congress of Mothers.

The twelfth annual meeting OF the
Audubon County Farmers Institute
will begin Feb. 4 at 10 q. m. and con-
tinue three days. The program
might be better, but those who have
had the responsibility of preparing it
have done the best they could under
existing circumstances. Causes be-
yond control forced them to arrange
the program in so brief time that in
some respects it is crude, and one
important feature was secured so re-
Gently that we could not advertise it
until this week. We refer to the presi-
dent of the Iowa Congress Of Mothers,
Mrs. Hills, of Des Moines, who will
be with us Friday evening ard Satur-
day. forenoon. On Friday evening
Feb 9th she will address us on "A
field worth cultivating having refer
ence to duties and responsibilities Of
the "Home maker" The address
will undoubtedly be interesting and
instructive to all who feel the impor-
lance of securing the highest type of
citizenship in the present and future
generations.
The executive officers of the Institute,
both present and past, have and do,
realize the necessity OF having
assistance of farmers, wives and 9TH
or ladies, in order to make the Far
mer's Institute the SUCCESS 1t should
be.
In years past the ladies Of Aud
ubon have given us several fine
evening entertainments and we
have had some good work done by
ladies from the farm, yet we have
never succeeded in arousing in farm
ers wives the interest we desire them
to have in the institute work.
We have invited several ladies of
the country to give us some hints,
Mrs. Hills will be present to aid them
and we earnestly hope that many
other ladies will be with us to encour-
age by their presence and assist with
their counsel.
