Cambridge

The farewell reception given by the
Methodist society for their pastor Tues
day evening was largely attended, at
testing the esteem in which Rev. Eli
holtz is held here. Mr.. Paul Wormieli,
In a cordial manner, expressed the
feeling of the church for their retiring
pastor and wished for him and his wife
the choicest blessings wherever their
lot may be cast in the future.
A very sad accident occurred last
Friday afternoon when a little ten
months old child of Mr.. and Mrs. Will
Strobush, residing northeast of town,
fell into a pail of water and drowned.
The parents had been called to Lake
Mills by the death of a nephew, leav-
ing the little one in care of older chill
dren. In some way the child fell off
the stoop head-first into the pail and
was not discovered until life was eX-
tinct The funeral was held Sunday at
the German Lutheran church. The be-
reaved parents have the sincere SYM
pathy of the entire community.
Although Cambridge has had electric
lights since August 10th, on account OF
delay in shipment the plant was not
complete until last Saturday. Until
that time the lights were run directly
off the dynamo. The storage batteries
arrived last week aud were Immediate
ly installed. The engine and dynamo
were then started and run continuously
for 81 hours to give the cells of the
batteries their initial charge. They
were then found to be in satisfactory
condition so that a charge each evening
while the street lights are on will keeE
them in condition TO take care of the
day load.

Dear Miss Fairfax:

have been keeping company with
young man one year my senior. OF
'late he has not come to see or even
write to me. What his reasons
are l do not know. My sister SAYS
| act too solemn toward fellows
and thinks | should jolly them
more. ANXIOUS.
There are some men who can be won
in only one way-by fattery. But their
Is such that the girl who
perfumes herself to win such a prize
doesn't win much. l think a better
plan Is to be just natural Be unaf-
fected, Just as you would be in your
own family and l am sure the right
man will some day come along.
If this man doesn't care enough for
you to explain his GOODNESS it is up
to you to cease caring for him.
