the best German schools and sent
to France to school. When she
was Is she came to America with
an uncle, presumably for a visit.
Here she married a man not of
the nobility, contrary to the wishes
of her father, Baron o Kettler,
and thus became estranged from
her family. An uncle of Mrs.
Blaich was for many years a very
popular Catholic bishop, the Bish-
op of Mainz, who vas known as
the labor bishop.
Mr.. Blaich, whose memoirs be-
gin in this issue, was born in
Philadelphia in 1914, moved to
st. Louis with his family in 1852,
served through a greater part OF
the Civil war, and after the war
followed his trade of cigar maker.
The story of how he came to meet
the lady whom he married on
July 8. 1867, will be told in his
story next week.
Keep Cool, Says Mr.. BIaich
Besides Father Nicholas, others
who were called on to give talks
were John F. Cook, Mrs. John
Herman. Mrs. w. V. d. Chapman,
A. M. Foor and Mr.. and Mrs.
Blaich. Mr.. Blaich spoke inter
estingly of his life and gave some
sage advice to young people and
people of middle age. He said:
"Never let your temper get the
best of your mind. Keep cool, and
when a spat arises in your family,
don't let it become a quarrel
Mind your own business, follow
the ten commandments and do IN
to others as you would have them
do to you, and you will get along
all right"
Mr.. Blaich is justly proud of the
fact that while he followed his
trade in SO different states, he
never left a job but that he could
go back to it if he wanted to. And
he and Mrs. Blaich have made
many friends wherever they went.
When she was called upon to
say something out of the wealth
of her eighty-ive years expert
ence, Mrs. Blaich responded in a
witty that brought forth
laughter and applause from the
audience. She spoke of coming
to America at 16, of sailing from
New York to Panama and of cross
ing the isthmus of Panama by rail
years before a canal was dreamed
of, and said that when first she
saw the Golden Gate at San Fran
cisco from the deck of a steamer,
she little thought that this country
would be her home for the greater
part of her life.
Recipe For Happiness
Patience, a loving understand
ing of motives, and a determine
ton not to nag or be too exacting,
are things which will help make
the wheels of domestic life run
smoothly. Wives should overlook
little faults in their mates and
should not attempt to tie their
husbands too closely to their apron
strings.
In a few well chosen words, Mrs.
Tom Kelly responded to Mrs.
Blaich's talk. After this Mrs. L.
L. Bogut sang "Silver Threads
Among the Gold" and responded
to an moore. Mrs. S%everson &C
companied her. Several popular
pep songs, paraphrased for the oc-
casion, and sung by the whole com
pany followed, after which a lap
lunch was served. The lunch hall
arrangement was in charge of the
ladies of the Catholic Aid. Mrs.
Blaich herself cut the mamoth, and
deliberately decorated wedding
cake that was the gift of Richard
Schaale of the Wolf Point bakery.
Assisting with the serving were
the Misses Sue Latterel. Hedwig
Tessman, Evelyn Coffey, Esther
Landes, Bernice Bogut, Anna Null
Ter and Lillian Schneider.
