HANGING grove township. M. L. Ford and Lon McDonald shipped a car load of hogs to -Chicago Tuesday night. There will be a box social at Banta school house tonight. Girls are requested to bring boxes. A cordial invitation Is extended to all. The box social at Parker was quite well attended last Saturday night, and, although the boxes did not sell high, the net proceeds were nearly I'.CO. A little short of the amount requested to get this year’s Reading Circle Books. Misses Fogg, of Lafayette, and Mabie Ward and Ferne Parker spent Sunday afternoon at Mrs. Stalkers. Chas. Templeton, of Monon, spent Sunday with his wife here, returning to his work on the Sternberg dredge, south of Monon, the same evening. He was tendered a position on a dredge in Michigan at a higher salary than he is receiving, but it is so far away from home he does not care to exchange places. Lewis Hooker, on the Poole farm, has been suffering the past few days with a severe case of quinzy. it has been necessary to lance his tonsils two or three times to get relief. He is better now, however, and is expected to get along nicely. Mrs. Oscar Howe left Tuesday morning for a visit with her mother, Mrs. William Hefkin, at Lawrence, Kans. She has not seen her mother for six years, and will likely be gone for several days. W. S. Lowman is in Michigan this week looking after his farm interests there.
