Peter Olsen, who started in to learn
photography at Millers studio, was
back from his home to spend the
Fourth and departed again Monday
to help his brother look after the farm.
Rev. Nordentoft, of Des Moipes,
kept his promise the Fourth to the
people of Kimballton and was there
and gave them very interesting and
entertaining address of very patri-
otto nature.
Edward Nielsen and family, east of
Elkhorn, who have been guaranteed
for some time with scarlet fever were
fumigated and turned free the first of
the week and are now able to attend
to their usual duties.
The Elkhorn implement firm did
good business the past week in bug
gies and sold to the following named
parties: Walter James a top buggy,
James Samberson top buggy, Peter
Guide spring wagon.
The celebration at Kimballton was
a grand success and much enjoyed bv
all. While the crowd was not as large
as at some places all took took their
baskets, visited together and had a
good royal patriotic time.
Miss Petra Christensen, who has
been working for some time at the
home of Hans Madsen in Kimballton,
gave farewell party Sunday at the
home of Hans G. Madsen, the jeweler,
as she expects soon to go to Prairie
Rose to remain for time.
Last week one day as the mail car
rier was coming down the hill west
of Peter Lykke's place the tongue
came down and the horses ran away
and broke up the buggy Of Chris Nell
sons aud it took considerable patch
ing before he got around home.
Claus Larsen, the genial clerk at
Hans Madsen's store in Kimballton,

eighty acre farm on the south line of
Douglas township, the first of the

Last Saturday night witnessed the
dedication of the new barn of Lars
Christofferson, one of the best farm
ers around Kimballton. He had in
vited guests and many nobly respond
ed to the call and gathered and made
the evening one that will long be re-
membered, not only by those who
gave the party but those, too, who
were present.
At meeting of the church las,
Sunday it was decided though not en-.
tirely definitely to open this fall with
Prof. Nielsen at the head instead O
j the resident pastor as heretofore. w,
believe this a good move as Prof
Nielsen is strong school man ant
would doubtless give entire satisfac

least nine months in the year and tt
raise the studies to an academic

the education the young people cal
get and think this school one of tn
best possible places to get it.
