will be distributed at the Alma
Senior Center on Thursday,
June 20, from 12:30-2:00 p.m.
There was a real good
turnout for the Blood Drive
Monday afternoon at St. John
Lutheran School. Thanks to
everyone who participated in
it.
We extend our sympathy to
Mrs. Walt Geisler and family
on the death of her brother,
William Bredow, last Thurs-
day.
Some of the members of the
old District #3 Community
Card Club met at the old
schoolhouse Friday evening
and dld a spring cleaning of
the old school to get it ready
. for the annual June picnic on
Father's Day. All members
and former members and
their families are welcome.
Earl and Paula Moege,
Adolph and Carole Moege and
Jack and Ruth Messer traveled
to Brenham, Texas over the
weekend to attend the Rust
Family Reunion. Dan and
Dorothy Moege, who had trav-
eled to Cleveland, Texas, to
visit their son, Ricky and
family, also attended the re-
union. This was the 49th an-
nual reunion for the descen-
dants of Karl and Juliana
Moege Rust. Through the ge-
nealogy research of Jack
Messer, it was established that
Juliana was the daughter of
August and Dorothea Moege
who immigrated to Wabaunsee
County and settled on Spring
Creek in 1879, along with
three sons, Daniel, Ferdinand
and Herman. Juliana arrived
in New Orleans in November
of 1872 from Germany and
settled in Texas with her hus-
band, Karl Rust. Another
daughter, Henriette Moege,
who had arrived in Wabaunsee
County, Kansas in 1868, was
married to Karl Grunewald.
Jack and Ruth Messer cele-
brated their 38th anniversary
on Thursday, June 6th. Join-
hag them for dinner at the Lit-
fie Apple Brewery in Manhat-
tan were Lori, Sara, and Kate
Messer, and Angle, Keegan and
Shaun Messer, all of Manhat-
tan.
Judy and Bob Sommer and
Jean Litke traveled to Min-
nesota last week to visit Jeff,
Kathy, Alex and Andy Aune of
Golden Valley. On the drive
up, they stopped at CabeIio's
near Fairbault, Minnesota.
Saturday they celebrated with
a big party for the June birth-
days of Alex and Andy Aune.
Judy and Bob then drove to
northern Minnesota to see the
sights near Duluth, Gooseberry
Fails, and Split Rock
Lighthouse, among others.
Jean went with her son and
family to Cannon Falls, Min-
nesota on Sunday afternoon
to the high school graduation
celebration for her nephew,
Jerrltt Aune. Jean was pleased
to be able to visit with and re-
new past friendships from her
years living in Minnesota.
You may recall Jean's grand-
son, Alex Aune, had a large
brain tumor removed four
years ago and is continuing to
regain full use of his right
side. Grandma Jean was very
pleased to see Alex riding his
bicycle-and showing much
improvement. He has im-
proved enough to enroll in
Kindergarten next year[ Dur-
ing their return drive to
Kansas on Monday, they
stopped at Madison County,
Iowa to view the covered
wooden bridges of Madison
County. As always, it is good
to travel and good to return
home!
The only rooster I have left
is a small bantam size, but
mixed breed. It's old enough to
have a regular crow, but it
doesn't, it Just makes a quiet
and unusual sound. I miss the
sound of a big rooster crowing.
A month ago, Vernie
Zeckser told me he was going
to have his big "8-0" birthday
this month and he wanted me
to put his name right among
the chicken news so next
Tuesday, June 18th, Vernie
Zeckser will be a spring
chicken of 80 years old. Happy
Birthday to

Boys' State is a program in
which high school juniors
learn the value and workings
of democracy on a city, county
and state level. The program
challenges students by allow-
hag them to form a mock gov-
ernment. Delegates to Boys'

for positions from City Clerk to
Governor. After these elec-
t.ions, the students fund out
first-hand the difficult deci-
sions that must be made daily
by those in government
through a series of challenging
assignments.
In addition to the mock
government, many speakers
addressed the delegates dur-
ing the week on issues facing
the current leaders of Kansas
including American Legion

Commander Russ Shu~,
Seward County Administra-

vancement and Dean of Stu-
dent Life Pat Bosco, and Kan-

Delegates are sponsored by
American Legion posts from all
over Kansas as well as various
civic clubs and organizations.
They are selected by the
American Legion after appli-
cations are submitted from
their high school counselors
