Church Supper Gratitude and Card Gratitude Messages

THANKS Our sincere thanks to all who patronized the St. Pauls Lutheran church supper and to all those who helped make the supper a success. I wish to thank everyone for their cards visits flowers and other kindness shown to me and Mrs. Cain during my stay in Holy Family hospital and since my return home. Your thoughtfulness is deeply appreciated. We wish to thank one and all for their expressions of sympathy and helpfulness by word deed and gifts occasioned by the death of our loved one. These kindnesses will long be treasured in our hearts. CONFERRING ON REMOVAL OF MAIL CONTRACTORS ON ROCK ISLAND Town State Commerce Commissioner John M. Ropes and Commerce Counsel of Iowa James E. Steffarud have left for Washington DC to confer with E George Siedle Assistant Postmaster General in regard to the removal of mail contracts from passenger train operations. The Rock Island Railroad has any application pending before the Stated Commerce Commission to remove this service. The loss of this revenue from the mail contract which is in the neighborhood of $100 000 year places the future of this and similar operations in jeopardy in the State of Iowa.
