IN MEMORIAM Elsie Pearl, little daughter of Charles and Bertha Redies was born in Phillips County, Colorado, January 26, 1907, and died March 17, 1908 at the age of 1 year, 1 month and 20 days. Little Elsie first had an attack of pneumonia but recovered after a week’s illness and seemed perfectly well but took a cold and that together with teething caused her sickness to terminate in brain fever which resulted in death after another week of suffering. Little Elsie was a lovely child and was the joy of the home she has left. During her illness, when she was not suffering keenly, she prattled in her sweet baby way saying things that she had learned of the loved ones who are now empty hearted because of their loss. She had a smile for all even in her sickness. The family, friends and physician all spoke of how sweet she was to the last. The funeral was held at the home on March 19, Rev. Leitz of German Lutheran church officiating. The little body was laid to rest in the Holyoke cemetery. The family have the sympathy of all their neighbors and friends in their sorrow. -- M.

A CARD - We wish to thank our kind friends and neighbors who assisted us with their help and sympathy during the sickness and death of our darling little daughter, Elsie. -- Mr. and Mrs. Charles Redies. A SOCIAL EVENING The many friends, both young and old, met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J.P. Pearson and family, 4 miles southwest of Holyoke, March 20, and spent a very pleasant evening. The young folks enjoyed themselves in the different social games, while the older ones were highly entertained by Mr. Pearson’s fine collection of phonographic music. At a late hour a bountiful lunch was served, after which all departed for their several homes, congratulating themselves and each other that Mr. and Mrs. Pearson will still remain among us. As it will be remembered, they sold their farm, last fall with the expectation of going to Washington. But for some reason the sale is off, and the neighbors not wishing them any harm by the sale falling through, are glad to have them remain in our midst, as one always hates to have a good neighbor leave the community. -- One Who Was There WANTED - 100 acres planted in sod corn; party to have first crop, with privilege of leasing land after first year.
