Celebrate 50th Wedding Anniversary.

THOMPSON’S LAKE.

— Mrs. Eli Secord entertained a Ladies’ aid quilting “bee” last week, also one this week.

VILLAGE NOTES.

— The usual union service was held in the Lutheran church last Sunday evening, instead of in the Reformed church. The change was made because of a flooded cellar and no heat in the Reformed church. The extreme cold of the past winter had frozen the outlet to the cellar, causing the water to rise to more than a foot in depth.

— The auction sale held by John Hayes at the Altamont livery last Saturday was largely attended. Horses were sold as cheaply as $20 for one hours, and up to $300 for a team. Wagons and sleighs when very cheaply.

— A Pantomime social will be given on Friday evening, April 12, by the Luther League of the Lutheran church. All members of the league and their friends are cordially invited to be present. The entertainment will consist principally of amusing pantomimes given by several members of the league. There will be a mite box in evidence. The entertainment will begin promptly at 8 o’clock.

— A new electric light has been placed in front of Makely’s garage on Maple avenue, and will be used as an advertisement. The lights will be turned on as soon as the connections are made to the lighting system.
