FITFORM

with the decline of her mother
strength she came home a few years
ago; Cora, wife of DR.. Francis E.
Whitley, and Myra, professor Of
Latin in the State Teachers College
at Cedar Falls.
In 1867 the family came to Iowa,
and Mr.. Call began a pastorate of
nine years with the Baptist church
at Hampton. The first church build
ing in Franklin county was built as
a result Of his labors. In 1876 they
came to this place where for twenty
years Mr.. Call was pastor Of the
Baptist church, during which time
the present edifice was built. After
wards for five years he was pastor
at Sac City where many warm and
enduring friendships were formed.
Twelve years ago they returned
here, since which time Mr.. and Mrs.
Call have lived in peace and happi-
ness almost ideal, surrounded by
their friends and with their chill
dren and grandchildren living in
the same block with them.
Mrs. Call was woman Of great
personal charm as we'll as of unus-
al strength of mind and character.
She was closely associated with her
husband in all his work and was a
help and inspiration in all that was
best in the lives and ambitions of
her children. AS a pioneer minis
ter's wife she shared with brave and
cheerful spirit in his toll. What
she was in this community, those
know best who can remember how
she cared for the sick, helped the
needy and extended a beautiful and
gracious hospitality to young and
old She organized the Woman's
Mission Circle in this place and al
so in the church at Sac City. She
also taught for many years the Sun
day 81 hool class who began as boys
and stayed with her till they were
young men The flowers and mess
a ges which have come in such num-
bers to the home during her brief
illness testify how many recall deeds
and words OF kindness from her in
years gone by.
Her old age was as beautiful as

INTERESTING PRO-
GRAMS ARE Given
English Lutheran and Universalist
Churches Observe Children's
Day.

The services at the Universalist
church Sunday morning were de-
voted to the Children's Day exer-
cises. The platform, which was
banked with flowers, formed a very
beautiful setting for the part played
by the children Of the Sunday
school. The program consisted OF
recitations, piano solo, duet, quin-
tette and singing by the school. The
children taking part acquitted them
selves in a very creditable manner,
showing the results of careful train
ing. Mrs. G. T. McCauliff also sang
some songs appropriate to service
devoted to the interests of the chill
dren.
The English Lutheran congrega-
ton observed a children's service
last evening and large and
appreciative audience gathered to
hear the little folks as they told in
their sweet way the meaning Of
Childrens Day. A very carefully
prepared program was rendered by
the children and the music was es-
pecially excellent. The entire SER
vice was one of unusual help and
inspiration to the parents and
friends of the little folk.

SERVICES At THE
CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Mrs. Law Begins Temperance Cru
sade-0rchestra Accompanies
Chorus Choir.

At the morning service at tht
Christian church Sunday, Mrs. E
N. Law began the temperance cru
sade to be carried on in Webster
City during the next few days. The
regular devotional and communion
services of the church were first con.
Quoted by the pastor, who then gave
up his pulpit to Mrs. Law, nation
al worker of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union.
Mrs. Law briefly outlined the cru
sade of instruction along temper
ance and purity lines to be carried
on in this city Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday of this week, and closed
her talk with gospel message bas-
ed upon the thirteenth chapter Of
First Corinthians. The teaching Of
this chapter she applied to the solu-
ton of the liquor and white slave
problems in our larger cities and
spoke of the terrible conditions
which are being licensed by this
government in the Philippine islands
today.
At the evening service the Chris
tian church orchestra of nine pieces,
under the direction of E. V. Butch

and delighted the congregation
with their music. The orchestra ac-
companied the large chorus choir
and also played as a special num-

hymn, "The Star Spangled Banner"
Miss Jennie Christianson accompan-

BOY SLIGHTLY IN
JURED BY Being SHOT
J. A. Bishop Becomes Exasperated
and Shoots Boy in His Straw
berry Patch.

AS a general result of the all too
prevalent disregard for property
rights among the youth of this city
a very unfortunate and regrettable
circumstance occurred in the north
part of the city Sunday evening.
It seems that J. A. Bishop, who
resides on Lucas street on the north
side, has very fine strawberry
patch, which he has expected to
have for his own use. But the boys
of the neighborhood have been MAX
ing various raids upon it the last
few days since the berries have been
ripening. II,
Sunday evening between six and
seven o'clock several boys were
playing in the vicinity of the Bishop
residence and Mr.. Bishop, who was
watching them, discovered one bend
ing over in his berry patch. In his
anger Mr.. Bishop took his shot gun
and shot at the lad, hitting him in
the head just over one eye and also
making a wound in one leg. A doc
tor, was called Immediately and the
wounds attended to. This morn
ing the lad was up and ate his
breakfast and is about the house.
Number six shot was used in the
gun and Mr.. Bishop was standing
near his house while the lad was
well out in the patch near the fence.
The boy declared that he had
come into the patch after his hat
which his comrades had thrown over
the fence and he was not in search
of strawberries. The affair is alto
gether a most unfortunate one but
all parties concerned are glad that
the boy is not seriously injured.
The boys name is Henry Johnson,
a son Of J. P. Johnson, who recent
ly came to this city. ....

TWO HURT IN run
AWAY ACCIDENT
Mrs. Chas. Burnett and Miss Ethel
Waldon Thrown From Buggy
and Injured.

A serious accident occurred late
Sunday afternoon when Mrs
Chas. Burnett and Miss Ethel Wal.
don were victims of runaway
They had started home from the J.
H. Craig farm north of town driv-
ing a single top buggy when they
met an automobile. The driver OF
the car did not turn out until at the
very head of the horse when he
abruptly swerved out, narrowly
missing the rig. The frightened
horse evidently thinking the car
was going directly over them, wheel
ed, upsetting the buggy into a ditch
by the side of the road. 1t then
, ,kicked free from the buggy and ran
north, dragging Mrs. Burnett, who
still clung to the lines, for short
distance. Mr.. Burnett, who was be-
hind the vehicle on horseback, sum-
moned aid and the injured women
were taken to the Craig home
where it was found that Mrs. Bur-
netts shoulder was broken, They
then were brought to DR.. Wyatt's
Office and the bone set and also min
or bruises of the two injured ones
cared for. The buggy was COM
pletely demolished by the accident
and it is significant fact that the
driver of the car did not even pause
to ascertain the extent Of the dam
age done. The horse has never be-
fore been frightened at a car and
had never run away before.
Mrs. Burnett passed very bad
night but is not considered danger
ously injured, although her bruises
are very painful. Miss Waldon is
also badly bruised and both ladies
are suffering from nervous shock.
Considering the nature OF the aeci-
dent, it is a very fortunate one, in
deed. The ladies were too busy with
the frightened horse to know who
the driver was or how many were in
the car and he drove away before
Mr.. Burnett was able to see the
number of the auto.
1t is such inexcusable actions as
this which place stigma upon au-
