Whitehall Pioneer Notes 91st Year WHITEHALL, Wis. (Special)-Miss Oline Hulberg, pioneer of this area, observed her 91st birthday at her home here Sunday.

Friends stopped to extend their congratulations and she received many congratulatory cards. Residing with her are two nieces, Miss Cornelia Enger and Mrs. Gunda Steig. Nieces and nephews are all the relatives she has left, her five brothers and one sister having died. Miss Hulberg was born Dec.

7, 1861, in Ness, Hedemarken, Norway, the daughter of Thomas her father was employed on the Hulberg farm in Norway. the family took the name Hulberg. Four of her older -brothers, Ed, Gilbert and Tom, preced- ed 6 rest of Oie family to this country, purchasing the Dave Watson farm near Pleasantville. When Oline was 14 she came with her parents, sister Pauline and brother Chris, and they settled also at Pleasantville. At Oline went to work at Osseo in the Ole Johnson home so that she might more conveniently pre'pare herself for confirmation.

She was a member of the first class confirmed in the South Beef River Church just southeast of Osseo, the church then being under construction. Following confirmation i Hulberg worked for a time at a new hotel 'at Independence, probably the old Turnbull, then at 17 she went to Eau Claire and was employed there for 10 years at housework, taking time out during the summers to go back to the farm to help with the harvest. By that time her brother Chris had purchased a farm in Hale Township and her father had died, so Chris asked Oline and their mother to live with him. She stayed there for 23 years and then returned to Eau Claire, where for four years she took care of an invalid woman until her death. Chris had retired, built a home in Whitehall, 1 and again she went to live with him, keeping house for her broth er until his death in 1934.

PAUL (J) The Railroad and Warehouse Commission opened hearings today on an application by Northwestern Bell Telephone for permission to increase its rates in the 144 communities it serves in Minnesota. The company has proposed these monthly increases: 25 cents on two- party residence phones; 35 cents on one-party residence phones; 50 cents on two-party business phones and 60 cents on one-party business phones. The first witness was Ben S.

Gilmer, vice president and general manager of the company. He told the commission the company wishes to increase the rates only enough to cover wage increases granted telephone workers in August, 1952. He said these wage raises made it impossible for the company to earn the percentage set by the commission at present rates. "It is not now possible to eara anywhere near that rate of return because of increased wage costs which have become effective since the commission's rate order of February, 1952," Gilmer said. Rep.

Only $50.00 MORGAN'S in a crucial moment of history when the odds are against us." At a dinner of United Churchmen of the National Council of Churches, he said, "All civilization has been put on the defensive and Communism is on the march." A onetime missionary to China, Judd said there is "no hope for Korea," and "the Koreans all know it." He said one of the reasons for such a situation is that we are following an old habit of "trying to make a deal" with the enemy. 400 Laymen Some 400 laymen from 29 denominations heard the congressman describe Christian religion as "the only hope." It gives hope because it offers the possibility that men can be changed, he said.

Looking over conditions in the Far East, Judd said, "People talk about Japan being a bastion against Communism. They'd like it to be but it can't." Economic conditions are putting Japan on the ropes and forcing her to look toward Red China for trade; The Phillipines is "a dead duck," and Indochina is tottering, he said. "There was never any chance to save it," he said, "once Communists had consolidated power in China." Judd said the Americans may be having tough going in Korea, but, "it's worse in Indochina--and they'll be there." Judd said that there has been a "terrible contraction of the places where men are free, and an expansion of where they are enslaved." At War for 30 "We've been at war for 30 years, and don't know it," he said. "That's why we're losing." In The Philippines, he said, America has sacrificed 50 years of democratic teachings and leadership, but "there's no way for The Philippines" to remain independent if the Communists rule on the mainland. In China, be said, 135 years of missionary work has been lost be- causs the Christian missionaries wouldn't believe "that the devil was the devil." 'They will have to stand before judgment and answer for that mistake," he said.

The roots of our failure, he said is that America tried to "make a settlement, an arrangement witt the devil of spurning him as Christ did when he was tempted. i Plants give off more water by day than by night.
