Young People Welded
Secretly i'm Wyoming

Miss Violet Egbert sprung neat
little surprise upon her Extra
friends this week when she announce
ed her marriage to Mr.. Andrew
Kuzara, Of Dietz, Wyoming which
took place June 81, 1921. Violet ac-
companied her parents here a short
time ago, expecting to be followed
soon by Mr.. Kuzara but the open
ing of good business opportunities
in the west caused the young couple
to change their plans; hence the
young man Is sending for his bride
and they will soon begin house
keeping in Dietz where the groom
is preparing a home.
We have not the pleasure of Mr..
Kuzara's acquaintance but he
SCENE to have endeared himself to
Violet's family and friends who
speak OF him as a young man of
model habits and great promise.
Miss Violet spent several years
of her life in Extra and made many
friends who will unite in wishing
Mr.. and Mrs. Kuzara long life Of
prosperity and happiness.

EXTRA and HAMLIN

EXTRA and HAMLIN
Another funeral after sudden
death predominates in our report
this week, this time at Hamlin.
This death was not caused by acci-
dent, but by what appeared to be
stroke Of paralysis to an aged
wife and mother who was just on
a fair way to recovery from a Sc
rlous operation. Elsewhere in
this issue you will read about the
departure from this world of Mrs.
Thomas Christensen. We have
not had the opportunity to know
her long, but our mutual interest
has centered about him who alone
has life and Immortality in his
hands. Our heartfelt sympathy is
with the bereaved, particularly the
little girls, who are just at that
age when a mothers loving g.id-
ance becomes such a big factor in
their character and estimation.
Next Sunday both churches will
unite for an open air morning SER
vice at IL o'clock, at George
Struthers' grove along the highway
between the towns. After a bas-
ket luncheon the time will be left
with the Sunday schools. Mem
bers and friends are invited to
worship and enjoy themselves
with US. Bring the children.
Thursday evening the Young
Peoples Society of Hamlin will
have its regular meeting at the
church. Notice the change from
Wednesday to Thursday.
The Ladies Aid will meet with
Mrs. Hans K. Petersen, south of
town, next Thursday. Young Peo-
pies meeting will be held at the
church the same evening.

bARBERRY BUSH
Survey Started in Search of
Plant which Has Proven
Menace to Small Grain

A farm to farm survey is being
started in Audubon county this
week, by Donald R. Porter and
Robert E. Fennell, of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
In search of common barberry,
which spreads black stem rust of
oats, wheat and other small grains
and grasses.
These bushes, when found, will
be removed, as there is state
law against their growth or plant
ing. The owner of the property
on which the bushes are found will
be asked to remove the same.
There are two kinds of bar
berry,-the common which is
harmful, and the japanese which is
harmless to grain. The two kinds
are quite easily distinguished. The
common grows rather tall, has a
leaf with sharp edges, and thorns
grow in clusters of three or more
along the stem; while the Japan
ese grows much shorter, has
smooth edged leaf and has only one
or sometimes two thorns at one
place on the stem.
The entire state of Iowa is to
be surveyed as soon as possible
and crews are now working in
Harrison, Shelby, Carroll and Mo-
mona counties. !. Many other mid
west states have launched cam
paign against the common bar
berry, among these being Mime
sofa, North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Nebraska, Illinois, Ohio,
Wisconsin and Michigan.

Good Time Furnished
at Expense of Legion

One of the biggest and most en-.
joyable events of the season took
place Tuesday night when the
American Legion boys entertained
their relatives, friends and neigh
bors at the Legion hall.
The band played several selec-
tions in its usual efficient manner,
which gave animation to the en-
tertainment.
The musical program in which
Mrs. Ben Jensen sang a solo, and
che Misses Beulah Connrardy and
Mary Hensley played a piano duet,
was exceptionally well rendered.
The usual stiffness of such occa-
sions was absent, and all thorough
ly enjoyed the ice cream which the
boys had provided free of charge.
After the program the orchestra
struck up some lively strains
which called those who cared to
indulge in the light fantastic to the
floor and all went merry as a mar
riage bell until the rain warned
them to cease and return to their
homes.
The orchestra was composed of
clarinet played by Andrew Pc
tersen; saxophone, Bill Petersen;
violin, Lloyd Klever; cornet, va
der Henry; drums, Harry Camp
bell. Mary Hensley presided at
the piano.
The boys have given several
dances since their hall was COM
pleted, all of which have been well
patronized, and they are contem.
plating giving them often during
the coming season.

PARALYI|C STROKE
FOLLOWS OPERATION
Hamlin Lady, Seemingly
on Road to Recovery,
Dies Suddenly

Sendith Christensen, vile OF
Mr.. Thomas Christensen, of Ham
lin died at her home very suddenly
last Sunday morning, July oath.
Her death was evidently result Of
complication of diseases, for
which she about month ago un-
derwent serious operation at DR..
Webb's hospital, Audubon, and
from which she had so far recov-
cred as to be able to be brought
home last Friday.
The first Indication of heart
trouble came about two months
ago when she fell over backwards
when emerging from the cellar at
her home, falling down the steps
and causing injuries which were
painful, although not serious. On
the morning Of her death she was
happy and hopeful of a quick re-
sovery. Soon, however, she no.
ticed an attack of paralysis coming
on, similar to the one she had
while at the hospital. She only
bad time to summon the doctor
and lapsed into unconsclousness,
dying about 8 o'clock.
Mrs. Christensen was born the
7th of March, 1868, in Slesvig,
then Germany, now Denmark. At
the age of twelve she came with
her parents to this country. Her
father having died, her mother
married the we'll known Elk Horn
pioneer, Willids Rattenborg, being
his first wife. At the age of
twenty she married Mr.. Christen-
sen and to this happy union
were born thirteen children, OF
which four are dead. Until a
year ago when they moved to
Hamlin, they have lived as farm
,ers in this county.
The deceased was baptized in
the Lutheran church when an in
FAINT, and also adhered to that de-
nomination in this land of her
adoption. She was known and
aoved as an industrious and kind
wife, good mother, a charming
companion and a faithful friend to
all. May her soul rest with God,
and her dear ones be comforted by
her sweet memory!
Those left to mourn her depart
ure, are her husband and the nine
children, Chris, Niels, Mrs. Anna
Steengaard, Willis, Adolph, Agnes,
Henry, Ida, and Myrtle, the old
est being 80 years old, the young
est IL years.
Funeral services were conducted
at the Hamlin Danish Lutheran
church Tuesday at one o'clock,
Rev. P. G. Jensen in charge. In
terment was made in the Bethania
Church cemetery, north Of Kim
ballton.
