FARMINGTON TIMES, Farmington, St. Francois County, Missouri, Thursday, February 2, 1911 BONNE TERRE W. H. NORWINE is still seriously ill at his home. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. STANFILL are spending this week in St. Louis. R. M. THOMPSON was a business visitor in St. Louis the first of the week. Mrs. Amos NORWINE is among those registered on the sick list this week. Charley KOESTER is on the sick list this week. Everyone wishes Uncle Charley a speedy recovery. The stork stepped into the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. WHITEHEAD and presented them with a fine baby girl. Ed CARROW, who for some months has held a position at Crystal City, moved his family to that place this week. Mr. E. C. HEGERMAN has accepted a position with the St. Joe Lead Co., and will move his family to this city in several days. Again we note that John W. WILKSON has filed a petition for a saloon in this city, and already we can see in glowing letters d-e-f-e-a-t. Next Monday, the sixth, Quarterly Conference will be held at Centenary Church. Presiding Elder CROWE is expected to be present and give an address. Lawrence WELLS spent the first of the week in St. Louis buying goods for the new variety store which the Wells Mercantile Company expect to start going in a few days. Our Band boys returned Saturday after a tour to several towns displaying their musical ability. The boys had a fine trip, plenty to eat and all kinds of merriment. Saturday night they will perform to an audience at home. A young ladies' class is going to be organized at Centenary Church M. E. South, under direction of Mrs. N. B. HENRY. For some time the young ladies had looked forward to this, and at last things are in condition to go onward and upward. Friday, February 3d, a grand rally will be given in Bonne Terre under the auspices of the Ladies of the Maccabees of the World. On this evening, in connection with installation of new members, a reception and entertainment will be given in honor of the delegates and members. Professor WOLPHERS has added the title of "Editor" to his name, having taken entire possession of the Bonne Terre Register. The first issue under his direction reaches the public this week, and as we gaze upon this new page covering the misty ones of the past we wish our deserving Professor and Editor, Mr. WOLPHERS, great success. Don't worry; the lay-off in the mines won't always last. Dost thou not know, canst thou not see far enough ahead to convince yourself that a town can't go to ruin with just one little blast like a lay-off? Wake up! Be bright and note how inspiring the future gleams. Remove the cloud that hovers at the mind's firm door, and in yon distance you will see Old Prosperity waiting with patience to rule once more. Owing to the fact that illness hovered over the homes of several of the leaders of the Foreign Missionary Society, the program which should have been rendered last Sunday evening at Centenary Church was postponed until a later date.
