ADAMANA ANNOTATIONS

Mr.. Jacob Grill, our mail carrier
was painfully injured April 1st while
he was unloading out car slipping
and falling on his foot.
Contrary to all reports there is not
now, nor has there ever been, any or
ganization in Adamana known as the
Parent Teachers Association.
Mr.. Robert Alton. our postmaster
here, had stolen from him quite
sum of American money Tuesday
evening. From the number of people
we see going around here that are
out of money, it looks like Robert
would be more careful.
Wednesday barber blew into
town looking for a location. After
meeting several of our citizens he
quietly disappeared claiming that
our people here were too long faced
to shave at union prices and make
living. | wonder who he was talking
with Do you know, Pete Beasley?
The party who left three quarters
of bottle of Pitchers Castoria in
the gentlemen's cloakroOm at the
Morgan's reception Thursday night,
can have same by calling at the
Mail office and paying for this
notice. Are you listening, Arthur
Beasley
The Oldest inhabitants in and
around Adamana advise us that a
case of sunstroke was not ever
known in Adamana. This may be true
but Mr. o. R. Reed, our erstwhile
third trick operator here, can certain
ly testify that the moon has some
striking power for very recently Mrs.
Moon came along and bumped him so
hard he could hear the reed birds
sing.
A large and appreciative audience
greeted Professor Berl Johnson Fri
day night, when he mounted tho plat
form at the school house in Adamana
to deliver his lecture on MISSOURI.
The professor told Of the great
strides the Missourians had made
since the advent of the missionaries
to that country in 1916. His lecture
was profusely illustrated with color
ed slides. While the professor is a
native Missourian he speaks English
very fuently and with just a slight
accent
mplimentary to Mr. Berl John
son, her nephew from Bolivar, Mo-,
who is visiting her here, Mrs. w. o.
Morgan gave a reception at her home
in the western part of the city which
was attended by almost the entire
city The reception room was very
prettily decorated with morning
glories and animated wall flowers.
Later in the evening a dainty lunch
con was served consisting of rye
bread soup, sandwiches and Nc
Laughlins, four X, which was very
heartily partaken of, with but a
single exception, this party claiming
that he was going to forever remain
loyal to his "Horlick's Matted
Mrs. w. o. Morgan received com
munication from Laton, California,
stating that her neice, Miss Matte
Jewel Johnson, was married IN Fres-
no Easter Sunday to a Mr.. E. r..
Smith of Laton. Thus one never
knows at all times just what calamity
may befall their neices and Things
when hundreds and hundreds OF
prune orchards separate them from
their loved ones. Just think of it, on
Easter Sunday Mrs. Morgan was IN
her quiet home surrounded by nu-
merous friends and one husband and
all enjoying the happy Easter greet
ings when way out in Fresno, Calf,
lust at the very hour Matte, her
poor little neice, was being married.
Think of it, dear reader, being mar
ried to a man by the name OF Smith,
thus adding at the very least one
more Smith to that innumerable fam
lily who are at this moment with a
little help from the l.. A. Examiner
strong enough to drive the Japs out
of California. Say, class mates, isn't
it fierce
It's sad story, mates, and l am
thankful you are not present when
related by Professor Pete Beasley,
