Experienced my first earthquake
here yesterday and 1 was wide
awake! It happened at 2:25 and 1
was sitting on a chair in the hall of
the Singer Sewing Machine Co. of­
fices, calmly waiting for my husband.
It was on ttie sixth (tup) floor of the
tallest building in Lima, ui»d I felt
the building swaying' to and fro.
I looked in the office and could see
Mr. Hawkins sitting calmly in his
chair, although looking around, and
I thought, “Hl sit here as long as
he sits in his chair.” The seconds
seemed like minutes; my heart was
in my throat and I broke out in a
cold sweat. Looked again- at Mr.
Hawkins and saw him jump out of
bis chair and start for the doorway
—likewise did 1.
Just then “Doc” (Win Dunshee)
came rushing toward me .«mdlML-
“"B!tr7WT??nn^ernbIor?" I could
have shaken him. I assured him I
did and I guess he could tell as much
when he took hold of my arm. By
this time the doorway was full but.
in a few momenta, some one said:
“It’s all over."
Everyone sort of
laughed, rather a nervous relaxation,
and went back to work, while I re­
turned to my chair, to get hot and
cold, hot and cold, and shiver. Borne
fun! I really didn't enjoy it a bit,
though I don’t believe Hl feel so
nervous another time. And had we
been on the street, we probably
wouldn't have felt it enough to speak
of.
To compliment Mis. Ervin L. Pe­
terson, a dessert bridge and shower
was given Wednesday everting by
Mrs. Stanley Ayers, Mrs. T. K. Foss
and Mrs. Tailant Greenough at the
Ayers home. Mrs. Ed McKeown won
the first prize, Mrs. Don McEniry,
