Install Their Officers
At the last meeting of the Pythian
sisters, which, occurred at their meet
ing room in the Stewart hall, with
their installing officer, Mrs. Shrad
er, they had the new officers induct
ed into their respective offices with
that beautiful and mysterious cere
mony which is peculiar to this order.
Those who took the offices were Mrs.
H. L. Bornemeier, most excellent
chief; Mrs. Lyle Miller, excellent
senior, ami Mrs. G. W. Fifer. excels
lent junior: Mrs. F. B. Dikerson,
keeper of the' records and seal;: Mrs.
Elmer Rosenow,. manager; Mrs. Mat
tie Skinner, conductress: Mrs. Audra
Stromeier. treasurer: Mrs. Charles
Ayres, guard; Mrs. Bert Kitzell,
protector. There was plenty to eat,
as well as plenty of good fellowship,
and all enjoyed the occasion.
Now at Jefferson Barracks
Frank Adams, who has been pick
ing corn for W. W. Coatman during
the fail and early winter has been
sent to Jefferson. Barracks., where he
is to receive treatment- and probably
will soon be transferred to Denver.
Mr. Adams was in the late war and
was very badly gassed and was for a
time a student at the vocational re
habilitation school at Bellevue. and
later attended a like school at Farm
ington, Mo., but with the closing of
that school was dismissed with an
allowance of only $25.00 per month,
lie has been especially poorly dur
ing the recent past, and it is hoped
that he will be benefitted by treat
ment at Jefferson Barracks or at Den
ver, should he be sent there. Mr.
Adams is a very close friend of, R. L.
Parmenter and the latter is very soli
citous regarding his welfare.
Enjoy Indoor Picnic
Last Thursday evening at the First
Methodist church basement was held
by the Bible school an indoor picnic,
which was attended by most all of
the members of the Bible school and
others of the church. A most en
joyable time was had" and a splendid
program- as well, and to make the oc
casion the more enjoyable, the eats
which were furnished were such as
would invite all who were present to
another or like gathering which
might happen in the future.
Attend County Convention
The county convention of the
Women's clubs of Cass county was
held at Weeping Water last Wednes
day at which time there was a large
gathering of the ladies of the county
present. Alvo was represented by
the following ladies: Mrs. S. C.
Boyles. Mrs. C. T. Edwards, Mrs.
John Murtey, Mrs. R. M. Coatman,
Mrs. Charles Godbey and Mrs. F.- E.
Cook. The ladies report an excellent
time and that the business was look
ed after with dispatch and that they
were privileged to enjoy a most ex
cellent program which had been pre
pared for their entertainment.
Crib Corn Being Held
W. J. Althouse has been hopping
to it during the past few weeks in
the matter of getting the corn shell
ed, he having had a number of very
bad jobs, which were piled on the
ground and partly frozen together
making it very difficult to get the
ears into the sheller. He now has
most of the work done in this terri
tory, except of course the cribbed
corn and a great deal of that is be
ing held for the higher prices which
the farmers feel sure are bound to
come soonor or later.
Entertained the Teachers
Harold McKinnon entertained at
his home northwest of Alvo on last
Thursday evening, the faculty of the
Alvo high school, and a number of
the young men, where all enjoyed
the social evening most pleasantly.
There were music, gaies, social con
versation and also refreshments that
added much to the enjoyment of the
evening as well as making the occa
sion one long to be remembered.
Among those besides the faculty of
the school who were present and en
joyed the occasion were Jesse Brandt,
Arthur Rohrdanz and Walter Vin

by increasing their revenues and cut

miners- and operators gathered to
night for the joint ccnferencc to be

the long coal strike. The strike to

Prospects' for an agreement at the

prior to the New York, meeting which
broke up January 12. At the New

number of plans favored by one side
or the other which were modified in
effort to meet objections.
The plan on which tomorrow's con
ference was called is that offered by
E. J. Lynett. published of the Scran
ton Times. This plan was accepted in
principle by the min? workers as a
basis for negotiations, but was reject
ed by the operators as fundamentally
unsound. As it takes a unanimous
vote in conference to adopt any plan,
it would appear that the Lynett plan
is doomed to go the wav of other
into discard.
