Did we take dinner down at Lewis ten on Thanksgiving day? Weil, I should say we did.

N. K. are extending their thanks for the patronage received on this occasion, we believe it is our duty to return thanks to the good ladies of that ex cellent organization who afforded the people of the community such an ex cellent meal, and at the nominal prices charged. For dass and weeks these good ladies have planned and labored incesently for the success of this occasion, the proceeds of which is all returned for the good of the community, and in our opinion we believe that it is the community who are indebted to the ladies, and to whom we should be extending our heartfelt thanks. So let us take" our hats off and bow with gratitude to the ladies of the K. N. K. at Lewis ton, ar.d trust, that they may all be with us on a similar occasion next year.
