in the community. She has a twin
sitter, Miss Nellie Keiser. For sev
eral months the bride has been tak
ing a training course for nurses and
has been making splendid progress,
but when a determined bachelor like
Fred Shelhorn starts out to win a
fair bride, business careers go a glim
mering. The groom is a son of Mrs. Anna
Shelhorn and is a young man of high
character and is known to be upright
and honorable and fully deserving
of a good wife. The young couple
are popular in their homo town and
have a host of friends who join the
Courier in wishing them a long and
happy wedded life together. Mr.
Shelhorn is farming with his brother,
John Shelhorn on the Ernest Pautsch
farm and for the present the bride
and groom will reside with Mr. and
Mrs. John Shelhorn. Louisville

it. Delays in the busy season are costly.
Spring is about here with iis heavy quota of farm

look after the repair work right away. To those in
need of new implements we ire in a position to quote
the most conservative prices possible.

Murdock School Notes.
'i lie pupils are kept pretty busy
at this time preparing for the exam
inations which are to ,eoon come.
Katherine Neitzel was called home
from school one day during the past
week ;7nd her presence was missed
i.y those of her class.
The absence of Hoy Oeklerking
was noticed by the odiers of his
class, on account of the merry dispo
sition, making making life and in
tere.it in the class.
One day last week the girls of sev
eral gri des had lunch together and
t:ij'.,ytd the occasion greatly." The
boys were anxious to join then:, pre
sumable on account of the eats.
When the teachers asked the girls
cf the seventh grade to remain, an
inquiring look appeared on the face;
'' the boys, when the teacher said
wiiat boys that wished could stay
abo. and think there wvre some eats."
remained, but found it was only a
sewing class.
The pupils i;f the seventh grade
have been composing some very
thoughtful poems, which must have
required much thought. We are
having to omit these from the notes
on account of lack cf space, being
crowded for space for other news.
Eighth Grade Notes
Miss Jennie Orhlcrking was absent ;
frcm school last Wednesday.
The girls of the eighth gradr with
tht true spirit of the Inusekoeper j
in mind, have recently decorated the!
school room in very artistic style
Seme very warm debates havo -v- j
cup'cd the minds of some of the stu
dents of this grade during the past
week.
The coming examinations have'
kept the pupils pretty hard at the
work, which will be required on the
satisfactory passing of the tests. i
The pupils of the grammar room
have organized themselves in work
ing force for the purpose of mak
ing the school more interesting in
gathering items of interest in the
school. They elected Miss Hildc
grade Baumgartner as editor, while
Meredith Weddell and Henrietta
Baur were selected as writers of
rhymes. The eighth grade Feelcted
Flovd Hite as reporter, and the sev
enth selected Carl Baumgartner.
Miss Hildegrade Baumgartner, the
editor, has written a very good trea
tice on the progress of the school,
covering the progress and telling of
the obstacles in the way of progress
and expressing hopes that a new
building might be had some time.
Miss Alma Scheel contributed two
very good stories and true to life.
Carl Baumgartner gives a good de
scription of "school days". Huth
Bauer gives an account of dream,
while Marval Amgwert writes a poem
on "Lilly Time" showing much
study. The reporters have made
very good reports of the school, while
the numerous rhymer, Bryan McDon
ald, lias furnished something in
veie to laugh over. The contribu
tions have been so volumnious that
we have not been able to find space
for them. We would suggest that
this wrirk be carried on and that
the items be selected that have vital
interests in the workings and pro-:
gress of the Fchool. Be concise in
our reporting, the doing of the
chool. make them brief, nithv. and
full of life, have them gone over by j
the editor and then by the teacher
in charge and then probably we will

nia, where they will spend the com-
t mg year. Their many Louisville
friends wish them happiness in their
new location.
Mrs. William Wegener returned
Iimiic from the hospital in Omaha
oi; Wednesday of last week and is
gradually gaining in strength. She
i underwent a serious operation for
I rupture but made splendid progress
right along. She will not be strong
j enough to do any work for some
j time and 13 fortunate to have Missi
! Helena Lnu, daughter of her neigh-j
bors, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Lau, to
assist her in her household duties.
Mrs. Wegener's many friends in this
j vicinity are pleased that she is get
i tir.g along so we'll and hope she will
soon feel as well as ever, if not be.t
ter. j Mrs. J. P. Wood is seriously ill
. at the home of her son, George Wood,
'and very little hope is entertained
for her recovery. .Mrs. Wood is a
pioneer citizen 01 Louisville and has
always bec-n remarkably spry and
her illness comes as asurpiire to
her many f'iends. She is past 77
yc::rs of age and does not seem to
li've the strength to resist the ef
fects of the illness. Her children
have all been summoned to her bed
side and she continues to lose a lit
tle in strength every passing day.
This will be sail news to all her
friefids, who will stiil cherish hope
that she may yet recover.
