HANGING GROVE.

The grading is almost done for the new road. The work has been delayed some by rain. Floyd Miller and family and Mr. and Mrs. Ira Williamson visited with Arthur Williamson’s Sunday. The Ladies’ Aid will be entertained by Mrs. C. W. Buissell, Sr., and Mrs. R. L. Bussell at the latter’s home on Wednesday, June 2. Mr. and Mrs. Ed Cook, Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Miller and families and Mr. and Mrs. M. Ringeisen visited at Wra. Zabel's Sunday. Miss Cecile Jordan went to Crawfordsville last week for a short visit with relatives and from there she will go to Terre Haute where she will attend summer normal. Mrs. Henry Heck and daughter, Edna Ruith, Went to Swanington, Benton county, Thursday for a visit with her parents over Sunday. Her father is a civil war veteran and is in quite poor health. Ohas. Stultz went to Lowell Tuesday morning to assume his duties as watchman at a street crossing. Ohas. has been a faithful section hand of the Monon for a number of years and is deserving of an easier job. He will board there for the time being, and leave his family here, on account of having his garden truck planted. The annual Sunday school convention of Hanging Grove township was called to order at 2 o’clock Sunday afternoon by the chairman and probably the most interesting convention for a good many years was held. The first on the program was a talk by Joseph Stewart, followed with an address from Geo. W. Hobson. Rev, W. C. Henslee then spoke on the problem of maintaining Christian character in our Sunday schools, after which Mrs. Fell gave the round table conference. Our apportionment to the county, amounting to $7.50, was then raised and officers elected for next year, which concluded the session.
