MRS. LEVI G. HOLTON

Sonova Christopherson was born
in Numedal, Norway, May 20, 1884.
She emmigrated to America in the
spring of 1843, crossing the ocean in
a small sailing vessel, and was ten
weeks crossing the Atlantic.
After landing in New York, the
way west in those days was up the
Hudson to Albany, and then by way
of the Erie Canal to Buffalo, and then
by boat over the Great Lakes to Mil
waukee.
From Milwaukee Mrs. Holtan came
ON west by stage to her destination
farm known to the early settlers as
the Teigen Farm, about half way be-
tween Albion and Utica. She was one
of the very early pioneers of Norwe-
gian birth to come to the Koshkonong
settlement, and was probably the last
survivor of the small congregation
who came together under the "Old
Oak Tree" near the West Koshkon-
ong Church, to hear the first Norwe-
gian sermon preached to that congre-
cation.
On July %, 1853 she was married
to Levi G. Holtan, and settled on the
farm where they have spent their
whole life. They celebrated their six
ty-third wedding anniversary, on the
23d of July last.
To this union there were born seven
children, all of whom survive, to
mourn, together with the. husband,
the loss of fond and loving wife and
mother. Deceased also leaves a sister
Mrs. Hillekson, of Dawson Minnesota
and a brother, Jul. at Marshfield, Wis
On the 10Th. day OF last January
she fell and broke her hip, and this
accident was later followed by two
strokes, from the effects of which
she never recovered. After three
months Of severe suffering, she pass
ed to her reward May /, 1917. The
funeral was held from the late resi-
dence Saturday.

Whitewater Normal Plans Red Cross
Day June A.

Day June a.
For the first time in years White
water Normal school is not planning to
give pageant. The national situa-
tion is the reason for the change. Both
faculty and students feel that this is
no time to devote energy and money to
an event the purpose of which is only
pleasure. The men of the school are
going into gardening on large scale.
Two acres of ground adjoining the
campus are to be planted to beans, and
the proceeds will go to the Red Cross.
The girls have decided to do their
"bit" by giving a fete. 1t will take
place at o'clock Monday afternoon,
June 4, on Hamilton Field, and the adj
mission price will be Is cents.
Aesthetic dancing, music and drills
in a setting Of out-of-doors are suf-
ficient inducements in themselves to at
tract crowd. But there is another
drawing card. Every cent of the pro-
ceeds will be used to help the work of
the Red Cross. The weather is not to
be consulted. In case of storm, the
whole production will move into the
spacious new gymnasium, so no rain
checks will be needed.
1t is expected that nearby towns will
give this project even more generous
support than they have given in past
years to the pageant.

Tobacco Notes.

Mr.. Albert Helmerichs, of the we'll
known St. Louis tobacco firm, was a
visitor in this market for short stay
this week.
H. S. Elder, manager Of the Chip
pewa Falls branch of the Hussey Leaf
Tobacco Co. of Chicago, announces that
plans are under consideration for the
building of an addition to the local
packing house within the next few
months. This move is made necessary
by the steadily increasing business of
the local branch which will about double
it's business of this season over that of
last season. When it closes the sea-
sons work in June it is expected that
over $125, 900 will have been distributed
in Chippewa Falls and vicinity.
Geo. Gary, in charge of the P. Loril-
lard Co.'S Wisconsin business, was in
town Monday and informs us that he
hopes to finish packing the 1916 crop
during the month. He is operating
plants at Madison, Cambridge, Evans
vile and Brodhead besides stemming
operations in Edgerton, employing more
than 1000 hands much of the time. He
will continue stemming plants at sew
eral points throughout the summer, in
fact all their Wisconsin low grades would
be stemmed in the state instead of
shipping it south, if sufficient help can
be secured.

what was to be expected in view OF
the situation. In several instances the
arrivals told of special favors that had
been shown them during the htSi
week. AS far as could be learned none
of the party had any intpEmt tloh
about the fate of the Yarrowdale pris-

city's Methodist churches last evening
heard the Rev. Dr. e. l.. Hyde preach
on God Be Merciful to Me, Sin
ner" at Camp Curtin Memorial Meth
odist Church. The services were at
tended by the Rev. r. III. Colburn, the
Rev. William Moses and the Rev. A.
II. Stone. Methodist ministers.
Cold Water Brigade
Every church has a cold water
brigade" said Evangelist Bodell, at
the Bodell- Maxwell meetings in the
Covenant Presbyterian Church. mo
sooner is there little fire than they
pour on water. What the Christian
needs is bellows. The church to-day
has the members and the machinery
What it needs is zeal. Says the critic,
Let's not have zeal without knowl-
edge. But / would rather have zeal
without knowledge than knowledge
without zeal, for the only man that
never makes a mistake is the dead
one."
The evangelist was preaching on
revivals, and he illustrated the condi-
tions of revival from the incident OF
Philip and the Ethiopian, showing that
God used Philip because he gave to
the Spirit of God obedience, faith
zeal and exercised promptness in his
obedience. He got there on time.
