Itvas ; our pleasure to visit the district where we were a teacher in our youth. The homes are very different from what they were then. The old settlers have won out in their fight with homestead conditions. The comfortable homes are monuments to the energy , thrift and economy of a very de serving people. The boys and girls we taught are men and wom en now. We trust the kind their teacher ever tried to have them want to be. Birthday Celebration. V An unusual social event , the lil e of which has never been celebrated in the vicinity of Kennedy before , occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs H. F. Kirae , February 29 , at which their little daughter. Monn Irene , celebrated her first birthday , sli9 having been born Feb. 29,1908 To aid in celebraiiog this unique event , 28 little folks and 14 older ones gathered at the Kime home. The amusements consisted of games in the open air until dinner time wheu the little ones were formed in a double line , each one being sup plied with a paddle on which was printed "Mxma Irene Kirne , Feb. 29 , 1912" These were kept by each one as a souvenir of the occasion. Little Mona was started down the line and received from each one a birthday whipping , which was quite vigorous as this would have to last her for the nexi four years. They were then marched to the tables , which were formed on three sides of the dining room , with a huge birthday - day cake , \\ith its candles , e cb representing one year of life for the little one , crowning the center. A \ dainty four-course dinner was serv ed to the little guests and was amp ly enjoyed by all. After dinner came the event of the day. Each child was given an end of-a string which was to be fol lowed in all its winding to the end of a rainbow at the opposite side of the room , where was found a cute little basket filled with candv. This caused much amusement , . As it was then drawing near evening the merry crowd thought it time to dis perse , but were first marshalel by the hostess in the front part of the house to have a picture of the group taken. Thus ended a most pleasant day and each one departed to their home , wishing little Mona many happy returns ot the day. A "St. ' : ' . Patricks' Dance will be given Saturday night.
