THE REFUGIO TIMELY REMARKS
\ Page Tin
Tivoli News
* *
The farmers of Tivoli are all badly
in need of rain to help make the
crops. There have been several
threatening- days, but, so far, we
have been denied the needed rain
Corn is beginning to suffer and gar-
dens can’t last much longer, unless
they get some much longed for mois-
ture.
Thursday night there will be an im-
portant meeting at the Tivoli Audi
torium, in which the citizens of the
community are urged to attend, espe-
cially the farmers. Administrator W.
L. Koonce of Refugio will discuss the
plans of the farm rehabilitation com-
mittee, as explained under the Recov-
ery Act. Much good is expected to
come from this meeting.
^ The Henderson Moving Picture
Company moved to Port O’Connor
last Monday morning, after a suc-
cessful week’s engagement in Tivoli
Mrs. H. A. Burchers and son,
Thomas, went to Freeport last Mon
day to attend the funeral of Mrs.
Burchers’ nephew, who died Sunday
night after a prolonged illness. The
young man was the son of Mr. and
Mrs. W. Willenburg, who lived in
Austwell for several years, where
Mr. Willenburg owned and operated
a drug store. The family has th<
deepest sympathy of the entire com-
munity in their sorrow.
Miss Elna Simms has returned to
Tivoli for the summer, after a sue
cessful v/inter spent at the Teachers
College in San Marcos.
| Miss Eleanor Goman of Edinburg
is the guest of her cousins, Mr. anu
Mrs. E. D. Barber, for the summer.
Mrs. H. W. Yorke and daughter,
Miss Doris, and son, H. W., Jr., 01
Perryton, Texas, were the guests 01
Mrs. Yorke’s sister and brother, Mr.
and Mrs. J. H. Angerstein, for a few
days the past week. On Monday they
went to Rockport, where they will oc
cupy one of the Hunt cottages for the
summer. Mr. Yorke expects to join
his family later for a short vacation.
Clarke Adkins celebrated his birth-
day with a party at Lamar on last
Saturday. Those enjoying Clarke’s
hospitality report a wonderful time.
Miss Elaine Wiese is In Spohn San
itarium in Corpus Christi as a result
of a car wreck caused by a blowout.
It is thought that Miss Elaine’s in-
juries are not serious, but as she was
bruised about the head and face, it
was thought best not to move her
until there is no uncertainty about
her condition. Her many friends hope
to see the young lady about again
soon.
On last Saturday afternoon, Mrs.
J. H. Angerstein entertained with two
tables of bridge, complimenting her
sister, Mrs. H. W. Yorke of Perryton,
Texas. A course of delicious refresh-
ments was served those present, who
were, besides the hostess, Mesdames
E. D. Barber, D. C. Wooderson, Frea
Barber, R. C. Brigman and J. C. Bar-
ber, and Misses Gretchen McGarrity
of Waco, Eleanor Goman of Edinburg,
and Doris Yorke of Perryton, and the
honoree.
The Junior C. E. Society met last
Sunday afternoon at the Presbyte-
rian Church with five members and
four visitors present. Two new mem-
bers were added to the roll. The new
officers were installed at this meet-
ing. No program was presented, ow-
