HANGING GROVE.

Not many people here knew of the special train to Newland Friday in time to go. Sunday School and the Easter program were quite well’ attended Sunday afternoon. The program lasted probably three-quarters of an hour and was closed with an address by Joseph Stewart. The decorations were excellent, consisting mostly of lilys, crocus and roses. Especially did the, lilys show considerable art in the design and were made by Mrs. C. A. Armstrong and Mrs. O. E. Hitchings. Next Sunday the red and blue contest is going to be started in our Sunday School. Mrs. Robert Cook returned home Thursday evening from her visit at Anderson. Joseph Stewart’s horse got badly cut in some wire last week and is in a very bad condition. It was the only one he kept from the sale and will thus leave him without a horse or cause him to buy another. Mrs. A. Jacobs, of Battle Creek, Mich., is making an extended visit with her brother, Joseph Stewart and family. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Cochran visited at Frain Ririgeisen’s Sunday.
