Eggs Wanted
The Methodist Sunday school
desires to send a case of eggs to
the hospital at Omaha immediate
ly after Easter. The members
of the Sunday school are request
ed to bring eggs fresh eggs to
Sunday school on Easter Sunday.
Others who desire to heip in this
worthy cause can leave eggs at
the postoffice on the Saturday
before Easter or Monday after
Easter. Remember, fresh eggs
are wanted not cooked or color
ed. They are for use in thehos
pital, which does a great deal of
free work for the sick and afflict
ed, not alone in the Methodist
church, as in this respect the
hospital is undenominational. If
more than one case is brought in
we can ship more the more the
better. Bring in your eggs.
