Mack IS optimistic. but makes no boast.

Bender, and Mike Powers credit for
splendid work and then looks into the

AS to the prospects, I am never one
to count the games until Mr.. johnson
has them marked down on his won

had a better chance.

they are about TO begin a long series

Surprise Party

On the evening of Feb. 10,
about fifty Of the friends and
neighbors of Mr.. and Mrs. j. C.
Bostwick, who reside near Or
son, gathered at an appointed
place and trooped in upon
them and to say they were sur
prised, is putting it mildly.
We found them in the midst Of
packing, preparatory to leaving
for their new home, near st.
James, MINI. The friends
brought heaping baskets of
chicken, cake, pie and apples.
The time was spent with music
and old time games by the
young folks and older ones too,
until about IL o'clock when
supper was served. After
which Mr.. and Mrs. Bostwick
were led to a seat in the big
dining room and the friends
gathered around them and F.
P. Carlisle stepped to the front
and in a neat and we'll worded
speech, presented them with a
silver tea service, as a token Of
the esteem in which they were
held by their many friends and
neighbors. Mr.. Carlisle spoke
very feelingly. Mr.. and Mrs.
Bostwick were very visibly eff
fected, and said that words
could not express their feelings
and thanked the friends and
said they would always hold
them in fondest remembrance.
The following lines were
written by w. s. Kelley for
this occasion:
To our friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Bostwick
Though Minnesota's prairie soil
May yield unto your plans and toll,
Success may every effort crown
And fortune lead you to renown.
Friends, too, may greet you with smile
And riches may your path beguile,
And while we wish you all these things,
We yet would stay your parting's wings.
This assurance take with you
That howe'er old fortune may your
path bestrew
And your northern moorings break
their hold,
You are welcome, thrice welcome to
our fold
Only a tiny tea set, carved by hand,
Only trinket dug from the sand,
iPolishedits surface and smooth inside
To hold the sweets your path may be-
tide
Though little its value, though little its
1 worth
AS measured by standards of old Moth
er Earth,
We ask you to take it and set it apart
Among the old treasures so dear to
| your heart,
For it comes from the Fl lends who
greet you tonight
And bid you God speed.in your north-
ern fight.
