Friday, June II, was the last and
gala day of Little Valley School.
Early in the balmy morning the
teacher, Miss Lottie Delaney, threw
open the doors and invited Miss
Rosy Nature to lead the pupils
away into the cool 1nurmuring ar
bors of the beautiful grove on the
WV. Shields farm, where sparkling
fountains OF sweet lemonaoe threw
their icy spray on sunny banks of
good program set with rare gems
of music was rendered, causing
delectable pause in the buzz of hap
piness. In order to emphasize their
appreciation of the terms work, the
patrons and pupils placed little
pearl in the crown of the event by
making the teacher a number of
nice presents, after which the crowd
reluctantly dispersed and the cool
twilight crept over the trampled
lawn, where Prejudice, the bugbear
of all school teachers,lay WANG uish-
ed and dying in the sweet, linger-
ing vapors of a merry school pic
mic.
Mr.. Hugh McLaren died Friday
night at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. VIM. Reese, in Audubon. Mr..
McLaren was highly respected
resident of Greeley township, until
ten years ago when he sold his
property here and moved with his
wife and son John to Oklahoma.
After a prosperous decade there,
they came back to Iowa, arriving
in Audubon June 18th, 1904. He
was i'll when he arrived in Audubon,
passing rapidly into hopeless
stage and in the quiet hours of the
night the doors of his earthly pris-
on swung noiselessly open and
Jesus, whose footsteps the deceas-
the world, called. The funeral train
left Audubon Monday morning,
winding sadly and slowly over the
summer hills, and past the old
home, then on to Bowman Chapel,
where services were conducted by
Rev. Chas. Bentley of the Union
Baptist church. after which the re-
mains were laid away to sleep in
the Bowman Chapel cemetery.
THE DREAMER
Where gently Groom the winds of June
My hammock swings today;
Through earthly door steal once more.
And leave this hut of clay.
In fancy's boat calmly float
Far DER life's dreamy blue,
Meath quivering skies the real world
dies
Upon the backward view.
In rapturous ease l sail the seas,
IA a dreamer-let me go;
You'll miss me not from this wild sDot
Where husky tempests blow
When comes that wreck we cannot
check,
RealityS stern wave
Will toss my bark into the dark
Oh where's the dreamer's grave?
