We have had a nice spell ot flue winter weather, not so bad but what people could get around and work every day.
Carl Banhart and wife visited Ira Ritter and family Sunday.
The Epworth League social at Les¬ le Valbert's was well attended. About 65 Or 70 persons were present. The evening was spent in singing and prayer and a shout program was ren¬ dered. Pop corn and home made candies wKre served. All went away, feeling they had had a very enjoyable evening.
Perley Lee helped L. G. Hale haul corn from Flora. Mr. Hale had a car load shipped trom the north.
That linotype In the J-R office Is a wonderful piece of mechanism but the pesky things pulls off some won¬ derful stunts. Sometimes ' takes spells of stuttering and unloads a lot of stuff no one can make out, then again sometimes makes us say things we never thot of. Last week It put yours truly on record as saying "Perley Lee In setting a gate post got his finger mashed and the neighbors got htm up some wood." what we said was that "John Brinkiey while help- ilng Perley Lee set a gate post, got his finger mashed and the neighbors got Mr. Brinkiey up some wood.
C. S. Marshall is trying his hand at batching, his better half having been called to Beardstown on account of the serloni; condition of her grand¬ son, Glenn Marshall, who took sud¬ denly 111 last Mondy night.
Arthur Cook helped Dan Bryan butcher a beef one day laat week.
We get pretty tired of our own cooking, as we never was sn expert chef, se we accepted an fnvitatfon from our neighbor Bryan Sunday morning for breakfast, also dinner with our old friends, Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Pemberton, and say, how we did enjoy those feeds, hut we doubt very much If we can go as long on thAte two hie feasts as Elijah did,, viz. forty days and forty nights, alto they were   excellent.
Dan Bryan, wife and son, Edgar. motored to Flora Sunday evening to see Mrs. B's neice, Mrs. Chas. Hin¬ man, who is sick.
There will be a farm fertility meet¬ ing held at the Oak Grove school house by W. E. Hart, of the Clay County Farm bureau. Every one In¬ vited to attend. Everybody welcome, whether they are members of the farm bureau or not. The meeting will be on Tuesday night, Feh. 7th.
