An Early Sunstroke.
Some people call it simply a case
of beinjr stewed, or drunker than
seven hundred dollars, but we
thought it was only a sunstroke,
which effected three young women
who were crowded into a coupe, from
Omaha, in Union on last Monday af
ternoon. They piled out of the car,
and went into a local cafe, and as one
tried to negotiate the doorway into
the eating house had a head on col
lision with the door frame. They
were so how-come-you-so, that the
proprietor had to eject them from the
dining room. They took a circuit
around town and made for Omaha,
before it go dark.

25th at 8 p. m. It is desired very
much that all be present, and that wc

Sunday was Mother's day, and a
goodly number was out at both the
morning and evening services. A solo
"Mother's Prayer," sang by Mi33
Grace Livingston, special number by
the choir and a solo by Raymond
Cook added much to the morning
worship.
In the evening a very beautiful and
impressive Mother's Day program was
rendered iu the church community
hall. The program opened with sing
ing by the congregation, and prayer
by the pastor, followed by scriptural
reading by Mrs. Robbins. Then Viv
ian Livingston and Lawrence Leo
nard sang "Mother's Bible." Follow
ed by an address by Mrs. Weaver on
Mother's Day. and a poem by Mr
Kiser read by Mrs. Kiser, on Moth
er's Day.
After this a series of tableau3
which represent a grandmother's
dream. Mrs. Richardson taking the
part of the grandmother. The stags
had been transformed into a living
room, and grandmother falls asleep
and dreams of ,the past, with a con
cealed choir singing hymns appro
priate to each scene. The following
scenes were shown, marriage, moth
erhood, and school days, the pageant
closed with the return of the college
girl.
The beautiful home setting, the
characteristic way in which those
acting took their parts, the soft
lights of the stage and the beautiful
rendition of the songs by the choir
produced a solemn but complete
whole.
The program was closed by the
congregation repeating together
those lines learned at mother's knee
"Now I lay me down to sleep."
