HOME COMING

Mr.. and Mrs. Paul Juneau of Ru-
dolph entertained the latters cousins,
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Berodin of Mil
waukee, Sunday, September %. To
make the event memorable one, they
invited their FIVE daughters with their
families to spend the day with them,
all of whom responded to the invita-
ton. The guests were twenty-five in
number and were as follows: Mr.. and
Mrs. Vevian Newman and family, Mr.
nd Mrs. John Fritsche and family, ana
Miss Henrietta Juneau, all of Rudolph.
Mr.. and Mrs. O. Leroux and family
and Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Leroux and

Roy and son, Raymond of Grand Rap
ids.
Music, singing, storytelling, jokes,
social converse, and feasting made up
the program of the day. A four-course
dinner and supper were served, to
which all did justice Mrs. Juneau be-
ing an excellent cook, and keeping in
mind the old saying that "the way to
a persons heart is through the stom-
ach," set before her guests delicacies
fit for a king. Everyone feasted to
his hearts content and the way that
food disappeared wasn't slow, and one
lady remarked that in spite of all that
had been eaten there was as much left
when the feast ended as when it be-
gan. A most enjoyable time was had
and September %, 1917, will undoubt-
edly go down on the calendar as a red
letter day for all time Towards the
close of the afternoon the guests de-
parted for their respective homes de-
claring Mr.. and Mrs. Juneau royal
entertainers.

! mediate safety and future of our de-
mocracy.
I'm this war, if you cannot go to
the front, you will hardly be content
unless you are doing your share at
LONE, especially when you read of the
great disaster in Russia and of the
great inroads of the German submar-
| ines.
Germany today is mobilized to the
last man and woman, and if America
is to win this war, America must mob
illze, not only the men at the front, but
those at home. If you are one of
those at home, you will want to know
how you can best help to back up the
men in the trenches. Service at home
does not give up family obligations,
or the time necessary for earning
livelihood. Such service can and
should be given in your spare time.
Immediate Action Necessary
THE first thing you can do is to
concern yourself with the desperate
activities of the German Empire in
this country. Some of these activities
are political; others are attempts at
dynamiting our war plants, spreading
German propaganda through the medi
um of peace talk or injecting our peo-
pie through deadly germs sold, or CIV
en- away, in the guise of medicine.
IF you are an American citizen, if
you believe in the ideal of life, liberty
and happiness for which our forefath-
ers gave their lives in the Revolution:
If you are not at the front-then it is
high time that you aid in patriotic
American work at home by enrolling
IN an organization like the American
Defense Society which is made UP of
citizens who, without thought of per-
sonal gain, are giving their time, en-
thusiasm and money to the cause of
American liberty"
Big Patriotic Carnival
1t IS proposed to hold during the
month of October a series of theater
parties, carnivals, fairs, garden par
ties, etc, throughout the country, and
IN this behalf Mrs. J. B. Arpin has
been asked to serve with Mrs. J. w.
Hartman, Mrs. N. L. Beekman, Mrs.

Lansing, Mrs. Charles Whitman and

National Committee to assist the Am

ant work yet to be done.
