Evening Republican, Volume 17, Number 48, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 25 February 1913 — KNIMAN. [ARTICLE]

KNIMAN.

John O’Connor was in Rensselaer last Thursday. Several Walker township teachers' went to Knox Saturday to attend the teachers’ examination. Despite the rough evening, prayer and young people’s service was well attended Sunday night. Our enterprising merchant, H. B. Brown, and John Snyder spent last Wednesday at the county seat. Rev. Mcßrayer failed to fill his appointment Saturday evening. Perhaps the storm interfered with his coming. There is to be a pie supper at Virgie school house Saturday evening; March Ist. Everyone is urged to attend. rThe "Bowie Special” has now a bright looking engine. Passenger traffic is increasing rapidly, although we suppose the engine has nothing to do with it. On Washington’s birthday the pupils of the Kniman school debated on the question: “Resolved, That Abraham Lincoln should have equal honor to George Washington.” The negatives won.
