| The Misses Olga and Helga Gjes-
void, of Nome were in town Friday
waiting for a west-bound train. The
young ladies are engaged in teaching
at Maddox and have been ENJOYING
long holiday vacation with their par
ents near Nome.
Among those who are enjoying (?) an
attack of the grippe are Mrs. Geo.
thurman, Theda Phillips and Mrs.
VIM. Portiss and children. In the lat
! ter care Mr.. Portiss is nursing his
; wife and children and all are on the
: road to recovery. When We Luccaites
choose a visiting nurse for the city
; it doesn't seem at all likely we shall
have to import one while we have one
so proficient in our midst. We know
ne likes visiting and would fill the bill.
| All those who gave articles OF cloth
ing to be sent in the charity barrel
at Christmas time will be interested
in knowing how very much it was ap-
preciated and that it is now doing
somebody much good. An extract
| from a letter received from the Glad
Tidings Mission upon the receipt or
the barrel is as follows: Everything
in the barrel is so good and we appre-
ciate your kindness very much and
will let you know as near as possible
where we place the things. This is
very hard year and everything costs
SO much that people are suffering for
things to wear. Our things that come
into the mission go out almost imme-
diately" Now aren't we many times
ND ohon ooah try
in some such way to help those In less
fortunate circumstances than we?
Thursday at the Congregational
church was held the eleventh annual
church meeting. Owing to the incle-
mency of the weather only II ventured
out Mr.. Galbraith was chosen chair
man of the meeting and after word
of prayer by Rev. Mueller we listened
to the different reports, all of which
were very interesting and showed a
marked degree of progress in the
branches of the church work. Per
haps the report which caused most re-
joicing was the one regarding the
church debt, which is now thing Of
the past The debt was incurred years
ago when the church was built. It's
existence for so long time has in
deed been a great drawback. While
there are number who worked hard
to raise the debt we believe to Mrs.
Wilbur Galbraith belongs the credit
of putting in the longest hours and se>
, curing the greatest number of ducats.
Following are the officers elected at
this meeting: Hans GOdferdson,
trustee for three years; G. F. Johnson,
trustee for three years; R. C. Mueller,
trustee for one year; w. Galbraith,
treasurer for one year; G. H. Buhr-
man, clerk for one year. IN
