Mrs. Alexander Rannie, of Providence R. 1., was the guest of her mother, Mrs. S. J. Williams, a few days last week. She left here Saturday for Rensselaer on her way to Washington state to visit friends. John Ahlers and sister Mamie visited their sister, Mrs. T. M. Calahan, from Saturday until Monday. S. R Nichols, of Valma, was a visitor here Friday. He treated all the boys to cigars. He would like to be “treasurer.” Dallas Nichols, formerly of Parr, has moved to our town and will work on the railroad this summer. Charles Page will move from here to Gifford Monday, so as to be nearer to his work. Oscar Russel has moved from the southern part of the state and will occupy the house vacated by Page. John Richmond, of Pleasant Grove, will move here one day this week. Harry Gifford began sowing onion seed Friday. Henry Toomin and John Akers were at Francesville on business Thursday.
