fully with festoons of holly and crepe

Doubtless other business houses will
follow suit this coming week, as the
stores are usually well decorated at
this season of the year. Drop in and
take a look at what has been accom
plished in this line at the barber
shop.
Gave a Splendid Concert
The Murdock high school band
gave a very fine concert at the high
school auditorium Tuesday evening
of last week that was attended by a
large number of citizens and parents
of the musicians. The band is com
posed of some thirty young people,
and their program was varied, com
prising a total of sixteen numbers,
all very well rendered.
Compliments are due tlie bandmas
ter, Royal S. Albee, who has put in
many a tedious hour instructing these
young musicians and the program was
a tribute to his success as an instruc
tor. If the band continues to pro
gress as it has in the past, it will
soon be playing the most difficult
musical selections that much older
adult bands hesitate to tackle.
More About the Banquet
Although we have carried a gen
eral news article before on the recent
Father and Son banquet held recent
ly, there are several points of inter
est not touched upon at that time,
including the election of officers to
perpetuate the annual banquet idea.
Lacey McDonald was named as presi
dent; F: Brunkow as vice president,
and Walter Brunkow as secretary
treasurer. Musical numbers were provided by
the Sons and the principal address
made by Attorney C. S. Wortman of
Ashland, as previously stated. Mr.
Wortman spoke on "Laws which All
Should Know."
The Ashland Fire Department of
fifty members was present and dem
onstrated First Aid methods in case
of injury arising from fires.
The youngest son at the banquet
was Jackie Amgwert and the oldest
Henry Carson, who came as the rep
resentative of Herman F. Schweppe,
who had no real son of his own and
so selected Mr. Carson. Leo Rikli had
the largest number of sons present,
three. A visitor from Iowa, Dr.
George Van Louke, of Dysart, was
also present.
This was the third annual gather
ing of Fathers and Sons, and it was
voted unanimously to hold another
similar meeting and banquet next
year at about the same date as the
present one.
Much good can come out of such
gatherings and we are pleased to
note the interest and fine spirit of
co-operation on the part of so many
of our citizens.
It is this kind of co-operation that
not only makes for better boys, but
helps towns to grow and expand. In
every town or city where you see it
displayed, you will find a growing,
optomistic community. Keep the good
work up, boys!
Held Annual Meeting
The annual meeting of the Mur
dock Woman's Missionary society was
held last Thursday at the home of
Mrs. O. II. Miller with a covered
di3h luncheon at high noon, served
to more than thirty guests. The
organization met at 10:00 a. m. for
the monthly devotional period and
business session. The afternoon pro
gram consisted of the monthly study
period and the annual election of
officers, as follows: Mrs. William
Rikli, president; Mrs. O. 11. Miller,
vice president; Mrs. Albert Borne
meier, recording secretary; Mrs.
Henry Amgwert, corresponding sec
retary; Mis. August Ruge, treas
urer; Mrs. Alvin Oehlerking. Young

The Burden of the Black Brother
By IRVIN S. COBB
O
NLY recently I told a story relating to Booker Washington. Today
I crave consent of the readers
anecdote of the great negro educator. He said that the citizens of
a remote Southern community got interested in a project to import
some Europeans to the neighborhoood and colonize them upon the fer
tile but gone to seed farmlands and truck patches which dotted the
district.
A meeting was held at the country courthouse to discuss ways and
means and to raise funds for putting the undertaking through. In the
audience sat an elderly and highly respected colored citizen.
After the meeting adjourned the chairman of it hailed the old negro,
"Hello, Uncle Zack!" he said, "I was glad to have you with us
tonight. I take it that you endorse the project we've put under way?"
"Well, Kunnel, I wouldn't go so fur ez to say dat," stated the old
man. "To tell you de Gawd's truth, theys' already mo' Vite folks in dis
county than us niggers kin suppo'te."

Thank Offering Program
A beautiful Thank Offering pro
gram was enjoyed at the Murdock
church Sunday evening, November
29th, by a large audience, when the
four Missionary organizations met
to celebrate the Thanksgiving season
with their respective gifts gathered
through out the year. The program
arrangements were in charge of Mrs.
Harvey Schwab and consisted of a
playlet, a pageant, special musical
selections and a membership proces
sional, when the members carried
their annual gifts, by organizations,
to the foot of a glowing cross.
The respective offerings were con
siderably higher than last year in
most cases. The offerings as report
ed are: Woman's Missionary society,
SS4.71; Young People's Missionary
Circle, $23.47; Mission Band, $22.00
and the Little Heralds (tiny tots),
$1S. 49, a grand total of $148. G7
which is quite a bit higher than last
year. This is indeed a Thank offer
ing to the Righteous Giver of abid
ing riches.
The surprise of the evening came
from the Little Heralds' department,
when it contributed $18.49 as com
pared to $5.4S last year. Mrs. Leroy
Gorthy was again elected superinten
dent for 1937 over this department. '
Celebrated Silver Wedding
More than eighty invited guests
met at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
William Luetchens last Monday
evening, November 30th, to help
them celebrate the occasion of their
twenty-fifth wedding anniversary.
After everyone was comfortably seat
ed, a beautiful program was pre
sented under the direction of their
daughter, Mrs. Malinda Fornoff.
Their pastor, Harvey A. Schwab,
read from the Bible and offered
prayer. Two quartette selections fit
ting for the occasion were given by
relati.es of the couple and Mrs. Ruth
Luetchens gave a humorous reading.
Mr. Schwab spoke briefly on "The
Life Beautiful," when the physical,
mental, social and spiritual sides of
mp.n are balanced and blended into
Chiistlike personalities to build a
Christian home-life and radiate a re
ligious atmosphere. Such personali
ties are "Like the tree planted by
the river of waters, that bringeth
Jcvlh its fruit in its season."
A practical part of the program
was enjoyed when Mr. and Mrs. Luet
chens again took their wedding vows
and pledged themselves for their fu
ture sojourn together. Mr. and Mrs.'
Herman Schweppe, their attendants
on the former occasion, stood with
tl"U.i last Monday evening. They al
so enjoyed the presence of their
former flower girls, Mrs. William
Vogt and Mrs. Herbert Oehlerking,
then nine years old.
At the close of the brief ceremony
many beautiful anniversary gifts
were presented to the couple in love
fud esteem for their faithful and
beautiful life together. A lap lunch
was served by attending relatives.
Eeryone enjoyed the occasion and
expressed their well wishes to the
couple.
Mr. Luetchens has lived continu
ously on the same acreage for the
pat 51 years. Mrs. Luetchens was
privileged to have her aged mother,
