Paul Donnelly received letter a
few days ago from Rev. M. M. Rup-
prechter, formerly pastor of st. Mary's
Catholic church in Bloomington, who
is now visiting at his boyhood home
in the Austrian Tyrol, He reports a
very pleasant ocean trip with no
storm of any kind After landing in
France he saw some of the battle
fields then went to Paris, which he
says has evidently recovered from the
effects of the war or at least is just
as gay as he ever saw it on any of
his previous visits. 1t is no pleasure
to travel in Europe at present because
OF the many irksome passport regula-
lions and the necessity of reporting
to the police of every place where the
traveller remains more than "a hours,
both at arrival and departure. Sept.
the parish where Rev. Rupprechter
was born celebrated his silver jubilee
in great style; but he says times are
very hard in both Germany and Aus
trla, with a great scarcity of food and
clothing. Rev. Rupprechter expects to
go to Rome about the end of October.
The work on the road by Fred
Knapp's farm has been completed and
is a great Improvement. The work
was partly contributed and partly paid
for by subscriptions of neighbors and
citizens of Bloomington and Lancas-
ter. All drivers over that road will
be glad that the particularly bad half
mile has been improved.
The siXtieth anniversary of the
marriage of Mr.. and Mrs. S. A Hatch

but their children have planned to
celebrate the event this week, when
the weather is more pleasant than it
probably will be on the actual anni-
versary. George and Charles Hatch
of Gordon, Neb., are now here for the
celebration, and Mrs. H L. Woodhouse
of Eugene, Oregon, Mrs. Nanta Bee
man Of Dubuque, and ]. D. Hatch of
Lancaster, will be here in a day or
two. Their son. Ora, is the only child
living in this community. Mr. and
Mrs. Hatch are in remarkably good
health considering their advanced age
and it is the wish and belief of their
friends that they will be spared to en-
joy many more such happy and I'M
usual anniversary celebrations.--Re-
cord.
