The Epworth League meets at Nor
gan church every Sunday night at 8
o'clock. Young people in the country
are invited.
We are glad to hear that our dear
little Sunday School mate, Lola Head
ington is progressing slowly but very
favorably at the Cresco hospital.
We regret to lose any of our promis-
ing young people. The going away of
Donald Powers, president of the Ep-
worth League and faithful worker in
Sunday School and church is to be re-
fgretted. But Donald is going to get
experience and further his education
and perhaps find his life work. So we
bid him God speed and tell him he will
always have a warm place in the
hearts of his many friends and neigh
bors in Morgan.
We are glad to admit a dear little
grille on the cradle roll at Morgan Sun
day School. She came to the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Howard recently.
AS soon as we find out her name, we
will enter same in the register. We
that she will be great help as
her brothers and sister and will grow
I to be great booster for country life.
Congratulations from Morgan.
Henry Schleuter is trying his hand
at the jolly batchelor business. But
from the looks of Henry's lonesome
face, we surmise that he must be sing

The leading event of the rural church
work last week was the get-to- -gether
social at Kendallville. In fact social
