Again the community is plunged into
grief at the news of the sudden death
death of Grandma Ohlheiser at Gull
Lake, Canada, where she went about a
month ago to visit a son. She had
been unusually strong for one of her
age and the news of her death came as a
shock to her many friends. The blow
seems doubly severe upon Mrs. Bryson
who just lost her husband and now her
mother. The bereaved have the SYM
pathy of the entire population of Wales
and vicinity as Mrs. Ohlheiser was one
of those motherly souls whom tc know
was to love and one that cannot but be
greatly missed from the community, but
her work was done and she has gone to
her Heavenly Father for her reward.
The remains will arrive in Langdon
Thursday and will be inferred Friday

We cheerfully admit that the fur
mace and the hard coal base burner
add a whole lot of modern comfort,
but after all they have their draw
backs. For instance, you can't very
well pop corn in either furnace or
base burner. 1t took those old
fashioned stoves, In which we used to
burn a two-foot length of hickory
wood, for that sort of thing. When
the wood had burned down to glow
Ing Goals, we'd open the front door,
rake the Goals down in front and pro-
coed to pop corn. When we get rich
we are going to have one OF those old
fashioned stoves put up in our room,
with a lot of two-foot seasoned hickory
In the basement, and every now and
then we are going to start a fire in
that stove, get good bed OF Goals,
and then pop dishpan full Of corn.
