Mrs. Lucinda Longaker died Tues-I dav afternoon. Funeral services will be held at the County Lino Church 1 Friday at two o’clock. Mrs. Harry Johnson was called to \\ isconsin, 7 uesday on account of the serious illness of several members of her son, John’s family. It would take considerable money to convince Morgan Dolph that he is not the luckiest man in Polk town ship, and all because a little son has come to help him raise sheep. He dates his good fortune from Sundaymorning. Mell, Alpha Mint, still asking for more explanations. You propably remember I “prophisied” that, between Meh. 17 and Easter we would see a greaty variety of weather, fair, winds raw, hail, snow, even twisters and trenters thrown in for good measure. ; To verify these claims I have clip- ; from the past weeks newspapers i clippings telling of a cyclone that I swept through Tenn. One in Minn., i one in Kan., one in lowa, and one ; in New J. Also a little 80 mi. per ; breeze which swept across N. Y. ac- ; contpanied by a heavy rain turning i to hail and sleet. : Also heavy rains in the Dakotas ■ turning into a 12 in. snow fall caus- : ing suffering and death to live stock. ; All streams in central Ind., at the ■ flood stage. : An earth quake recorded at the : 1 niv. of Chicago observatory. ; Mt. Vesuvius in Italy and Mt. in : the Hawaiian Isd. on opposite sides ! of the earth to each other pouring ■ forth smoke fire and lava in great ; rivers of molten, rock, one 1400 ft. i wide, Mt. Lessen in Cal. smoking and ■ others in Mex., “waking up.” Now why all this phoenomina at ; just this time? : How sick Mother Earth must be : to have to ‘ heave ho” and blow her : breath as she is doing. But why? : 1 am sure some will say we always ; have an Easter storm and also some ■ equinoxial storms and I agree to their j statement but I am not satisfied ! with that. What determines Easter, : may (determine our Easter storm and • what causes spring may cause our ; equinoxial storms and there you are J at the relation that exists between • Mother Earth party of the first part ■ and the sun aryl the moon party of ■ the second part. Is that plain? ou don’t question my “guess" on : an open winter now for April. First : 10 days ordinary spring weather ; with average number of storms. Next • 1:» days watch every storm cloud j for violent wiryts etc. Severe volcan- • ic and quake period. Watch papers I 16-24. Last 5 days storms less severe : but rather chilly, perhaps a frost and : a “fruit killed” report. I really hope ■ I’m wrong but time will tell.— PINE Mrs. Harry Wood entertained : company from South Bend on Wed- ; nesday of last week. Mrs. Charles Robertson and her : sister, Otis Hosier, and little : Maxine, spent Thursday of last week : with Mrs. Albert Mangus. Rev. Polen of Lakeville called at : the home of Mr. and Mrs. E^} Haw- : btitzel on Thursday. ■ George Mcßride went to Plymouth ; last Monday on b”-i- — -fy.
