At Verboort
The national holiday of July 4th was
observed by the people of the Ver
boort settlement in a way perhaps as

Kreigers farm they met and had a well
prepared dinner, the palatable kind
that housewives

Frank Bernards of McMinnville, de
livered an address in the afternoon
which showed that he had given it
much thought and rendered it in a
manner pleasing to every one. A
dance was given, the proceeds be
ing for the orphans home and the com
mittee realized about $200 clear.
This amount is indeed a great help to

splendid time, no accidents. All went
home in the evening feeling much
better for being present.
