Mrs. J. N. Bishop was hostess of the
Ladies' social Club April 5, 1913. AS
this was an April meeting everyone

essary business the afternoon was

prize. Delicious refreshments were
nicely served Mrs. Sadie Fletcher

and efficient. His ancestors were
pioneers of Methodism and their
mantle has fallen upon him. Bro.

Missouri farmers can now serve a
grand or petit jurors without the fin
ancial sacrifice heretofore entailed b,
this duty. The recent legislature pro
vided that such jurors should here
after receive three dollars a day. Thi
will be appreciated especially by mel
who are forced to leave their farm
and spend, one, two, or more week
in a distant county seat serving upor
a jury. The amount heretofore pal,
was barely sufficient for their hote
and travelling expenses and left moth
ing with which to pay the hand or
dinarily required to look after farm
chores in the absence of the owner.
