OBITUARY.
scfiAEFERI..,

Lydia Augusta, daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. Mandelko, was born
December "a, 1883. in Howard County,
Iowa, at which place she grew to
womanhood.
On April S, 1908. she was confirmed
by Rev. C. Neidermeier, then pastor
of the German Lutheran Church, of
Cresco, Iowa. July, 1909, she vas
married to Jacob B. Schaefer and
made her>home in Cresco, Iowa, where
she remained until her death. On
February 4, 1918, daughter was born
to them. At this time pneuu onia set
in and on February 10, 1918, at $50 a.
m, she sweetly and peacefully fell
asleep in death.
She was loved by all who knew her
and will be sadly missed by her many
friends.
She leaves to mourn her untimely

THE 1NTER-sOCIETY PROGRAM.

The second inter-society program
sheld last Friday night was from every
standpoint one of the most successful
ever given in Cresco. A packed house
was in attendance; the order was un-
usually good and those who took part
in the program fully met every expec-
nation. The fairy operetta given by
spupils from the first five grades was a
success from start to finish. The child
rem showed the results of careful! train
ing in their songs and drills while the
costumes of the Will-o' the Wisps,
Little Green Elves and Fairies served
TO produce a most pleasant picture.
Hazel Burr, Of the Fourth Grade, had
she leading part and scored her usual
success. Anna May Woodland, of the
South Side School, made a splendid
fairy queen. All of the other charac-
tiers played we'll their parts. No little
praise is due to the mothers of the
children for making the costumes and
BENDING their interest to the occasion.
The debate was won by the Roberts
Society, this being the first time in its
Aistory that said society has won an
inter-society debate. The decision this
time, however, was unanimous: The
rguestion. ''Resolved, that the 'proges'
rive party has no place in American
politics" was up to-date enough to be
intensely interesting. The affirmative,
represented by Jessie Smart, Harley
Gill and Lois Robertson, seemed to
lack unity in their argument, two of
the speakers falling into the fatal err
ror of trying to defend standpatism,
while the third speaker took exactly
sthe opposite viewpoint. While Jessie
Smart Of the affirmative was declared
to be best over all, with John Kakac
of the negative second, the judges de-
cided that the negative speakers, John
Kakac, George Robertson and Anna
