Annual Ball To Be Held On
Thanksgiving Night
Good Music

Each year at this time the ticket
sale for the Firemen's Annual Ball
is called to the attention Of the PEG
pie of Sank Centre. Ticket sales
for the 1887 ball will soon be start
ed under the direction Of Louis
Larson, and it Is hoped that liber-
al response will be the result Of his
efforts.
We herewith publish an appeal to
the people of Sank Centre, written
by Chief George Fish, asking the
fullest cooperation in patronage for
the annual ball. There are many
things needed by the department
which the Chief enumerates in the
following letter:
An Appeal To the City
The Sank Centre Fire Depart
ment will put on their annual ball
on Thanksgiving evening, and I am
asking the people to be more gen.
erous than last year In supporting
this event. Remember no fireman
gets one penny out Of the money
raised. We are serving the people,
giving Of our time and risking our
lives to protect you and your pro-
perry.
Last year the sale Of tickets was
a miserable failure. This sale OF
tickets is our only way of raising
money to pay necessary expenses
which are incurred throughout the
year. During the last year we have
been compelled to draw on what IT.
tie reserve we had.
Let me give you a comparison. At
Alexandria sales in advance Of the
firemen's annual ball run from
five to nine hundred dollars.
Our department Is badly In need
of many things. We should have
smoke and gas masks and salvage
blankets. We are now paying out of
our funds about three hundred dol
lars per year for leather and
sheep-lined coats, boots. mittens,

One Of those pioneer women
whose life had been spent in open
ing the western plains to a greater
future passed from the midst Of
this world this morning.
Mrs. Meta Margaret Hausser,
born Meta Margaret Plate, passed
away at the home Of her daughter.
Mrs. Harriet Ward in this city. this
morning, October 28th, at 800
o'clock. Despite the growing in
firmities of old age that crept on
her year after year, she was
strong almost to the last. Mrs.
Hausser was in bed only a week
before her death. She was unable
to take solid foods during almost
all that time. Even to yesterday
morning her heart pumped with
regularity though the pulse seemed
to grow fainter.
A native Of Varrel, Germany,
Mrs. Hausser was born on Decem-
Der Bird, 1841. She would have been

day anniversary. These birthday an
niversaries were a day of great joy
in her life during the past years.
For ON that day she received cards,
was showered with flowers, and
visitors came to talk with her.
In 1860, just before the opening
Of Americas Civil War, she crossed
the Atlantic to this country. She
was nearly 10 then, and the cross
ing was made in q sail ship on So
day trip. In New York City in the
year 1855 she was united in mar
rage to the Rev. Frederick Haus-
ser.
From that time the young WON.

one Of self sacrifice. Rarely did
Rev. Hausser plead to his congre-
cation to help some poor family In
sickness, or in poverty. Usually he
and Mrs. Hausser saw to 1t them
selves that the family was cared
for. He served pastorates in Ne
braska, Kansas, Colorado, and Mis-
souri,, and the work they did
speaks of the utter devotion to the
tasks to which they had dedicated
themselves.
Since the death Of her husband
on September 4, 1907, she has made
her home with her daughters. Each
summer from 1917 to 1929 she spent
with Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Ward at
their Ward Springs cottage. Since
1929 Mrs. Hausser has made her
home entirely in Sank Centre with
Mr.. and Mrs. H. w. Rudolph, Mrs
Skaer, and Mrs. Ward.
During her last few years in this
city her CHEEKY way, her constant
smile for those who called, won
her many warm friends. Everyone
who knew her called her devotedly
Grandma Dearie." She was always
appreciative Of their kindnesses
looked forward to visits. She liked
singing and Christmas provided
one of the happy times for her. On
the Eve before that great Christ

never failed to come to the Ward

Pilgrim Springs Mission Exhibit
 Is Interesting

Interesting and unusual is the exhibit at the Fair of the articles made by the children at the Mis- sion School at Pilgrim Springs.
 Among the fine pieces of work displayed are several greeting cards and calendars delicately decorated with pussy-willow fig ures and with tiny houses fashion ed with bits of bark.
 Of especial interest is an Eski- mo coverlet made by child only seven years old. Other articles showing especially fine workman ship are: dog sled, airplanes, a tiny carved ptarmigan, Eskimo dolls, fur work, some excellent freehand drawings and the fine needlework for which the Miss ion is famed.
 As a whole the Mission display is outstanding. While none of the articles on exhibit are for sale, anyone desiring duplicates may have same by dropping a line to the Pilgrim Springs Miss ion.
