Pleasant Reception

A very pleasant reception was
given yesterday afternoon at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Foster
on Jackson street. The reception
was in honor of Mrs. John Foster,
and Mrs. w. H. Putnam of River
Falls, Wis, mother and sister of
Mr.. Foster, and Mrs. George Vos-
berg, of Oshkosh, Wis, an aunt of
Mrs. Foster. They have spent the
winter in Fort Myers and become
very interested in the place and
consequently have made many new
friends who regret their leave TAX
ing for their northern homes.
There was large and congenial
gathering to extend to the depart
ing tourists their regrets that they
must go, and best wishes for safe
and pleasant journeys to their
homes, and the wish that they will
return again next year. The time
passed all too rapidly in pleasant
converse and exchange of ideas and
opinions of the different states as
most desirable for homes, the con-
sensus of opinion being Florida for
winter homes, but the individual
state from whence each came, was,
of course, the Eden for summer
comforts.
1t was found in the course of con
versation that seven of he guests
were from Wisconsin, some of them
having lived here for some time,
others being winter tourists. De-
lightful refreshments, consisting of
ices, cake and candy were served
during the afternoon. The memory
of this happy gathering will be one
of pleasant recollections of both
hosts and guests in the years to
come. Fort Myers Ella Daily

RIVER FALLS ITEMS
Nineteen years have now elapsed
since the Journal made it's debut in
this place, under the auspices of l..
A. & H. A. Taylor. The latter,
however, soon purchased the Hud-
son Times, and left the institution.
Here the Journal survived but a
few years ere it was transplanted to
the city of Prescott. Next in 1868,
L. A. Taylor sold it to Messrs. Flint
& Weber, now of the Dunn Co.
News. In July, 1871, the office was
destroyed by fire. Then its sub
scription list was purchased by
Messrs. NJ. B. Kimball and c. r.
Morse, proprietors, at that time, of
the Pierce Co. Herald In the sum-
mer of 1872 the Journal was re-
vived, and its publication recon-
menced at this place by A. Morse &
Co. A few months subsequently a
change occurred in the firm, and il
has since been published by its
present proprietors, A. Morse &
Son. In 1867 a senior of this firm
| became a regular contributor to the
columns of the Journal, and so
continued until its suspension at
Prescott. On the 30th day of jan
uary, 1876, the Journal Office, in
Guiding presses, cases, stands,
furniture and nearly all of its type,
was destroyed by fire. This time,
however, there was no suspension
of its publication. And this is the
history in brief of the River Falls
Journal for nineteen years.

H. W. Rood Praises City

H. w. Rood, State Patriotic In
structor, who visited this city the
ninth of last month, wrote review
of his trip in this part of the state,
which was published in the Madi-
son Democrat of April Il and from
which the following is clipped:
ION Tuesday, April 9, 'Appomat-
tox Day, | was in the clean, neat,
little city where is located the River
Falls Normal school. There | met
bunch of good old comrades, sew
eral of whom were members of
Company A of my own regiment,
the 18th Wisconsin. They gave up
work that Gay, dozen of them,
and marched with me to school,
where we all had most enjoyable
time with the young people. 1t
was inspiring to them and to me to
see the lively interest the boys and
girls manifested in everything con-
corning the flag. / found that they
knew more about the meaning of
the flag than in some schools, for
their teachers are themselves patri-
otto instructors of the best kind.
The schoolmaster at River Falls,
Professor ]. w. T. Ames, has been
principal of schools there for four
teen years, which fact speaks we'll

gathered at the church, where the
subject was, 1.-The Month of April
in the Civil War" Particular at

at Appomattox forty-seven years
ago that day.
| would like to tell ever so many
good things about River Falls, its
public schools, its fine Normal, its
intelligent people, it's fine old Civil
war comrades of all their
cordial courtesies extended to their
visiting comrade; but space will
not permit.
l must in particular mention the
good visit | had with Professor l.
H. Clark, for twenty years teach
er in the Normal school there. He
showed me through the Normal

tesy | am glad to go back in very

George Reigle, were seniors in the
Whitewater Normal, thirty four
years ago. His service as teacher
has been long and honorable"
