Joseph W. Jensen, son of Ole C. Jensen, died last Monday night from an attack of flu. ' pneumonia, following Funeral services were held Wednesday at the home, no public gatherings being held yet Mr. Jensen ' was a 'young man of good moral habits and very industrious one who always held the good will of the people in general. He was married about nine years ago 'to Mrs. Hannah Mlnchey of Emery and, besides his young wife, he leaves ' six small children ranging In age from six months to eight years, and the following brothers and sisters: James C. and Kr, C. Jensen of Elmo, J. E, Jensen and Mrs. Mark Powell of yic-to- r, and an aged father. As the family was left in hard circumstances a collection is being taken up. t Mrs. Chrlss Madsen has been very sick for the past month. Mrs. Jennie C. Lamph has just returned from a month's visit with Senator Lamph in Salt Lake. Mrs. Helga Stokes visited last week with relatives In Price. Mr. and Mrs. Oluf Jensen have recently welcomed to their home a new daughter. All concerned are ' doing well. Henry , Timothy has moved his He family in from the Reservation. will run his father's farm this summer. Mrs. Hannah Richards accompanied her son Samuel back to his home at Latuda and keep house for the family. Miss Alice Larson is now employed . at the Cleveland Cash store. . I , ..Sunday morning the peals of the church bell brought throbs of Joy to the populace and upwards of two hundredold and young were in attendance at Sunday school, all departments being wel) represented. The same was the case at 2 p.m., a good attendance also being there present to partake of the sacrament and take part in the testimony meeting. It was fast day and the first opportunity for upwards of four months. All seemed to enjoy the privilege. ' Our townsman, Reuben Brasher, met with an accident Monday morning. He was driving some stock across the river bridge and, in making a turn, his horse slipped and fell on Mr. B rasher's leg, breaking the bone between the ankle and the knee. ' Dr. Hill was Immediately called and. cared for the ' fracture. Mothers appear to be a little negligent Only three babies to bless and name last fast day after a four months' perlodl Monday night's priesthood meeting was strictly a business session, the time being taken up in arranging for the different organizations to have their meetings. A new start is to be made of everything. r , Last Saturday was the date of our stockmen's annual meeting. It was a good meeting and the Information of the year's work was most profitable. They reorganized, reinstating some and putting In some new board members. Several questions came up for discussion and all were satisfactorily settled. The question of assisting the farm demonstrator in killing off the ground dogs and sparrows was up for discussion and all voted to assist to the beat of their ability. A committee was appointed to arrange for a social in the near future and all surplus proceeds gathered will be used to buy poison for the dogs. The little fellows appear to think, it Is spring and may be seen perched upon the little mounds that are homes to them.. We said last week that our schools had started and that we had eleven grades. That might be a little misleading we have eleven departments with all home teachers. This Is the particular "part we are proud of, a typographical error last week leaving out the "home" part. There is an attendance of about eighty-fiv- e per cent of our enrollment but we understand they cannot continue long for want of , - s ; funds. The beautiful weather of the past week denotes that spring is knocking and asking that the last vestige of winter depart and give way to the beauties of nature's - youth. And if the butts of our haystacks could talk they would be telling the same story. ..'-..- MOLEN , VICTOR Thus far we have escaped the flu. However, we are not complaining and wont feel at all slighted if It doesn't visit us this round. We feel exceptionally fortunate In having been able to have our school this running almost continuously a very good attendwinter and With " t ance. ; J. W. Wart has Just sold his ranch north of town and moved to Salt Lake City, where he will operate a large apartment house in the eastern part of the city. He feels that he hasn't lost anything by coming to Victor as he received $57,500.00 for his ranch besides no small sum for loose articles and livestock which he sold to dif- ferent parties. Bishop Thoa Wells is about the busiest man in town this week. He is learning the starts and stops to the Ford which he just purchased . . Mra R. A. Jewkes of Kenllworth visited for a few days last week with her sister. Mrs. Wm. IL Wells. Mr. and Mrs. Wells accompanied her back home Saturday where they are visiting at present. W. F. Noyes will soon have his new farm residence ready to move into. - s , Everybody enjoyed the party given in honor of our returning soldier boys last Saturday evening.. There was hardly standing room anywhere in the hall. Dancing was the principal feature but a nice program was rendered in con- ' 1 junction. A house party was given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Larsen Saturday, night A nice supper was served by the hostess and games followed. The junior young folks made candy the same evening at the home of Miss Arvella Hansen, all having a good timer Mr. and Mrs. Whltlock are expected to return home from Elmo in the near future. (Too late for last week.) T'; Several of Molen's soldier boys have now returned . home from overseas; and a party will be given in their honor Saturday evening in the meeting house. . Those who have returned are: Christensen and Jedd Sergeants Hrvin McDonald. ' Marion Waymon Victor Wareham, and Jesse Larsen. Some of them did not cross the water. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Whltlock of this, place are In Elmo where Mr. Whltlock Is trapping while his wife visits with friends and relatives. . Wllford Jensen of Elmo is a visitor at Molen this week. . Sunday school and meeting will start Sunday and we hope there will be no more flu so that we may continue with our services. Like the other towns, Molen has had no social gatherings for about four months. Ervln Christensen Just returned from Elmo where he has been visiting with friends and relatives. -- |
