MacDiarmid and daughter, Dor othea Jane, Mr. Charles Steckman, cf Pennsylvania and Mr. William Pletsch, of Omaha. While this party was on, there came Mr. O. J. Hitch cock and family from Havelock. Now it begun to look like a family gath ering and the spring air and blossom time made it a never-to-be-forgotten occasion. It was just the kind of a gather ing that makes for friendship and sociability. It seemed to be quite a treat for these city dwellers to get out in God's country, close to nature, and enjoy nature at its best. Was a Needless Scare The fright which was occasioned cn account of the apprehensive con ditions, looking like there was to be cause for alarm du? to a number of casts of diphtheria, has subsided, as steps were taken at once to observe the strictest care and as a result there has been no spread of the disease and no cause for alarm. Mrs. August Panska Very El Mrs. August Panska. who was taken with an acute attack of appendicitis, was taken last week to a hospital in Lincoln, where she underwent an op eration and where she is convalescing nicely and is hoping soon to be able to return home.

Murdock is for tunate in that they are able to have so excellent an operator as Miss Ostblom. Seventy-Four and Hustling That is the condition of John Al bert Bauers, who has lived nearly three quarters of a century in one of the very best counties in one of the very best states in the best nation on earth and Al says this is not a bad old world after all. Speaking of the earlier days, for Al was born about six miles northeast of Murdock, at that time a very new country and one which has grown up with this excel lent gentleman, he recalls how his father and many of the neighbors went down near Oreapolis and cut wood for 25 cents per day. They would start about midnight Sunday evening, walking the entire distance (and there were no cars in those days to come along and give anyone a ride) and arriving at Oreapolis around day break in plenty of time to go to work. He also says that at that time riatts mouth was without a railroad and had a quagmire in Main street and he recalls when a man brought a wagon load of corn to town and sought to trade it for a pround of green or unroasted coffee. J Since then Mr. Bauer has seen good times come and good times go, like wise also poorer times and very lean years. He says these times are not hard as compared with the other days. However, he was celebrating the passing of his 74th birthday an niversary last Saturday with a hope for better days ahead and returning abundant prosperity.

The young man was operated on for appendicitis and a few days after the operation was taken with what was at first thought to be diphtheria, causing a great deal of apprehension to the attending phssicians and members of the fam ily. It was found later that the com plication was not diphtheria and it was soon cleared up, permitting the boy to be returned home. The Eppings family are former residants here and the many friends are pleased to learn that the illness was not as severe as first thought.
