Sunday afternoon Dr. Fegers and some of his friends started for this place in his automobile, but when the auto found out 'twas headed for Spring Grove it began to cnt up and didn t want to go any farther. But finally 'twas coaxed to go on and they landed here all O. K. During their short stay here the ma­ chine was so impressed with the place ths t it deternined not to leave, and what un excitement it did create!
