Mr.. liver Watne, one of the "old
timers" of North Prairie, has been
spending the week visiting former
neighbors and friends.
Mr.: Victor Davy, who lives south of
Des Laos, was in Burlington several
times lately. He rendered valuable
service with his violin at the special
meetings.
Every day the Burlingtonians are
making the potatoes start up from
the ground. Cars are being loaded,
empty buildings filled, and now, too,
the warehouse is being used for the
seed stock. John Werner, manager,
is kept more than busy. Jim Casteel
has his outfit on the job, time and over
time, teams and autos on the go. Jim
is certainly bringing in fine spuds.
Some time ago Mr.. Case brought in
some Early Triumph variety for sam
Piles. One weighed exactly two pounds.
Thirty such make a bushel. Fine.
These were grown just north of town
by Werner and Case.
G. A. Bugge & Co. have had car
load of vegetables on the track and
have been selling them fast. The
writer got in on it, and has a supply
for the winter.
The program given in the hall We'd
nesday evening, by Mr.. Wilson and
wife, was highly enjoyed by all. His
representations were lifelike, his
choice of subjects good, with the en-
tire absence of Objectionable features,
and everybody was well pleased. The

Men gave up their seats to the ladies
who came late. This is the first of
three numbers to be given this winter.
Supt. Nelson is to be complimented on
the way he is boosting this social
work.
Lloyd Shea and sons are hauling
hay from the hills to their dairy farm
on the Mouse. Mr.. Shea has splen-
did lot Of feed laid by for the winter.
The meetings at the church have
people. The talent and devotion to
duty of the leaders has impressed all
who have attended. DR.. Paris E. Wells
is easily the most convincing speaker
that has been heard in Burlington for
years. Sunday morning he spoke on
the subject, "The Sovereignty of God"
0uuue1y cVSllllS, "A DuSlucSS WAL ,
Religion; monday evening, whats
Wrong With the Church," Tuesday,
Goods Shock Troops" which subject
he used to speak directly to protesting
Christians and at the close of the SER
vice he led a Recommendation meeting
which was very impressive. Wednes-
day evening, "a Defense of the Doc
trine of Damnation," which was con-
elusive argument to those present that
the Almighty God is still God Of
Love in spite of the fact that many
people are lost. His text was: Mark
1916, "He that believeth and is bap-
tised shall be saved; but he that be-
lieveth not, shall be damned"
Next Sunday DR.. Wells will speak in
the morning at II on the subject, "A
Soldiers Religion" and in the evening
at 7:30 on "The Pathway to He'll"
Everybody is urged to attend.
The work of Mr.. Harry Dixon Loes
as leader, and Miss Birdie C. Loes as
pianiste cannot be too highly spoken
of. These consecrated young music
ians have surely won the admiration
and respect of all. Mr.. Loes is choir
director Of power and Miss Loes plays
with ease, accuracy and skill. To-
gether they are great team. Their
duets are wonderful, their voices
blending in beautiful, melodious har-
mony. Miss Loes gives opening con-
