r   CORRESPONDENCE
Miss Mary Stalberger, Rosie
Weller, and Annie Waldorf of
Stearns County were the most
welcome guests of Mr. N. Loch-
ner during the past week. The
time was spent chiefly by playing games, singing and music.
On Friday the visitors were taken to Joe Gruber's farm 'from
where they returned late in the
evening. Saturday they visited the nearby school with the
teacher. They admired the
room very much but we think
the teacher had a contrary feel-
ing on Monday morning. Sunday morning the first sleighride
was taken to the village. Some
pf the nearby neighors were also Visited. A good many tricks
were practised by the ladies
but were generally unsuccessful. Tney returned to their
homes on Wednesday.
