was covered with snow but it did
not remain on the ground long.
Saturday morning there was moro
snow but there was frost with it.
and it was cold enough to make .
layer of ice on troughs of water
and to freeze down the flowers and
vegetables which we're still grow

years since frost has held of 90

Il Was Their Loss

Those who did not attend the
first number of the lecture course
Saturday night missed the best
entertainment of the kind ever
given in Washburn. Ernest Kemp
gave the story of the "Seven
Oaks" No impersonater has ever
been here before who has taken q
whole evening to one reading and
given his listeners such pleasing
entertainment. y
Sunday evening Rev. Mitchell
invited Mr.. Kemp to speak at the
Congregational church. He gave
'The Printer of Udells" and it
was enjoyed even more than his
number the night before. As an
interpreter of the human emotions
he has had no superior here.
DR.. Forbes now has charge of
the lecture course and he was
disappointed in the number Of
citizens of our city who were
''scared out" at the thought of a
lecture, when no lecture was given.
