sudden storm that came up made it
so dusty that it was impossible 80
play. This game will be a closely
contested affair, as both sides have
good players. The new diamond will
be one of the best in this part of the
state. 1t is understood that a league
between four of the towns will be
organized. But this is to be COM
posed of only home players. Alva-
RADIO has shown themselves before to
have the best bunch Of home play
ers, and no doubt will respond this
year. Everybody should boost for
and make it interesting.

Mounds Park Sanitarium, St. Paul,
Minn., May 8, 1916.-I wish to let
all our friends know that the very
severe operation for liberated stom-
ach which I passed thru only six
weeks ago, was so successful and
satisfactory that I am now so far
on the road to recovery that I in
tend to leave St. Paul for Alvarado
on Thursday, May II.
1t has been time of suffering
those weeks I have been away from
Alvarado, but I am thankful to God
for his help and blessings. Many
are the blessings and encourage
ments that I have received during
this time of trial. I wish therefore
thru the Sheaf to express my own
and my wife's heartfelt thanks to
all friends in Vega and Alvarado, as
well as in Warren, for their letters
of sympathy and encouragement,
and to NV bible class in Veoa. fo,.
the beautiful and fragrant flowers
they sent and which filled the sick
room with their sweet odor.
If the weather is fine and God
willing, intend to be present in the
church on Sunday, May II.
Your grateful brother
Rev. O. J. Boberg.
