The Lutheran Ladies' Aid Society
was entertained by Mrs. J. B. Koontz
Friday, Nov. 16. This Society is doing
exceptionally fine work in the making
of quilts for orphanages, under the
very efficient supervision of their pres-
ident, Mrs. E. Singley. They have
already sent three of their quilts to
on orphanage this season, and will
have four more ready to send after
Thanksgiving. The hostess served a
very fine lunch.
Mrs. Fred Atwood and two children,
who have been here the past few
weeks, guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frame,
left Thursday for their home in Kan-
sas. Mrs. Horn, who accompanied
her daughter here will remain the re-
mainder of the winter and has witji
her, her grandson, Junior Atwood.
They are here hoping this climate will
be of benefit to the little boy who
has asthma, and we learn he has im-
proved a great deal since he has been
here. Mrs. Horn is a sister of Mr.
Frame.
At the call meeting of the Ladies
Auxiliary of the Palacios C. of C.,
Monday afternoon quite a number of
our ladies were present to hear some
plans the president, Mrs. R. L. Price,
had in her mind. The one that seem-
ed to take best with everyone was
for Palacios to have a "Tree of Light"
at Christmas time. After some dis-
cussion a motion was made and car-
ried unanimously, that the Auxiliary
sponsor the placing of a "Tree of
Light" in the band stand in the park,
to be there and lighted every night
from Christmas Eve until the New
Year. More details will be given later,

micek, of El Campo, and Frank Huitt,

len's fishing boat, "Lay Pilot" bound
for Half Moon Reef, for a fishing trip,
which proved to be "very successful,
having caught one hundred and fifty
trout in two hours. The fish and duck
dinner prepared by Mrs. Allen won the
unqualified praise of the busy but hun-
gry fishers.
The most thrilling moment of the
day was when Captain Allen killed a
porpoise. The trip was a pronounced
success from every angle. They are
going again soon.

R. J. Sisson family breathed his last
on Armistice Day, and was given hon-
orable burial under a tree in the back
yard. Ted was a great sufferer for
many months, and death was a release
from pain. The family was away
from home, all except Mr. Hensel,
who took full charge of funeral ar-
rangements.
No better dog than Ted, none more
beloved. Peace to his ashes.
