S. II. Dicks disposed of nice bunch
of hogs last weeks at the very nice price
of cents a pound. They were fine.
The Woodmen masked bali at Fish
ers bali last week, like everything un-
dertaken in Hazelto2, was a grand sue
cess.

leave here in few days. j. j. will not
take our advice but is bound to try Mis-.
souri,.
j. W. Little is causing the few wolves
he has not caught to have kind OF a

every day of late.
Jesse Webb made an attempt the
other night to pick up a red hot stove,
but he won't do it anymore, at least,
not until his fingers get we'll.
w. H. Creek has gone back to his old
range in Missouri. He says he is going
to stay, but then he will be back In the
spring in time to put in q crop.
Avis Kincaid treated himself to a
new buggy last Saturday. We don't
expect him to live the life of bachelor
much longer. and II he does it will
be. his fault.
The firm of Blake & Morton, of Cor
win and HaZelton, sold out their Cor
win store last week to Mr. Routh.
They Will look after their business here
in the future.
Ed German shipped 92O fat sheep to
the Kansas City market last week and
as usual topped the market. Ed is one
of the best sheep feeders in this or any
other county.
ID. Nj. Circle sold one of his 100 acre
farms west of town last week, the con-
sideration being profound secret, we
can not give it away and feel safe when
we meet D. NJ.
George Goodnight who left here last
fall for his home in Missouri, writes
back that his family has had very poor
health since their return. That means
we may expect them back here in the
near future.
Jim Little makes his dogs catch the
wolves, but when Mac Harrington goes
after them he just takes his gun and
brings them down the first shot,-that
is the way he did it last Saturday.
Jack Piper had his family moved to
Kiowa last week. Their stay here was
very brief and just little bit turbu-
lent, in fact lack didn't stay here to
amount to much. He didn't like the
climate.
Quite a number of the boys went
down on the river Sunday to have, as
they expressed it, a winter picnic, but
we think they really went hunting as
they had few guns with them, some
thing not usually needed 10 picniclng.
Last Friday night NUMBER of the
Hazelton people got the idea into their
heads that Rev. Sawyer needed little
attention and the only plan that suited
all was to get together and give him q
good pounding, which they did. When
the job was completed his residence
looked more like q grocery store than
dwelling. We never thought there was
half as much good life giving and life
sustaining material in town as was
piled up at his home.
Harry Fox got home Sunday with his
new wife, and IN the future will be
found at the residence of his parents
west of town. Harry is one of our hon
est. energetic hard working young men
that don't depend on his parents FLOR
his support. We predict for him and
his better half prosperous and protita-
BILE journey through life. Here is to
their future success and wishing that
the number of Fox's may never grow
less and never be chased out of the
community.
