THE LESSON TEXT.

LIE LESoON EAI.
(Acts q :33-44)
80. And while the day was coming on,
Paul besought them all to take meat, say
ing, This day Is the fourteenth day that
We have tarried and continued fasting, hav-
Ing X nothing.
"a. Wherefore / pray you to take some
meat: for this Is for your health: for there
shall not an hair fall from the head Of
any of you.
IS. And when he had thus spoken, he
took bread, and gave thanks to God in
presence Of them all: and when hi had
broken it. he began to eat.
80. Then were they all of good cheer, n
they also took some meat.
81. And we were in all In the ship two
hundred three score and sixteen souls.
IS. And when they had eaten enough, they
lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat
into the sea.
~. And when 1t was day, they knew not
the land: but they discovered a certain
creek with a shore, into which they were
minded, If it were possible. to thrust in
the ship.
40. And when they had taken up the an
chors, they committed themselves unto
the sea, and looSed the rudder bands, n
hoisted up the mainsail to the wind, and
made toward shore.
Al. And falling into a place where two
seas met, they ran the ship aground and
the forepart stuck fast, and remained I'M
movable, but the hinder part was broken
with the violence of the waves.
AZ. And the soldiers counsel was to kill
the prisoners, lest any of them should
swim out and escape.
%. But the centurion, willing to save Paul,
kept them from their purpose; and COM
manded that they which could swim should
cast themselves first into the sea, and get
to land:
A. And the rest, some on boards, and
some on broken pieces of the ship. And so
1t came to pass, that they escaped all safe
to land.

to the Lord In tHeir trouble, and He
bringeth them out of their distresses

Early Potato Market.

The market for early potatoes opened
this week at Anoka and Rines & Co.
sent down scales and sacks and began
buying on the market, with Chas.
Gallup as their representative. At
Minneapolis last week Early Ohios
sold at 20 cents the first of the week.
and the market went as high as IS cents
on. Saturday, the farmers tributary to
that city being the benefciaries of the
high prices: With the opening Of the
markets at Anoka and other points in
the southern zone of the potato belt
prices will decline some. but they will
still be high enough to make the farm
ers who have potatoes to sell feel
happy. The Anoka market started up
at 20 cents. The market at Bethel
will open about the first of August and
other points will follow with spuds in a
few weeks. The market at Princeton
will not open for another month.
The yield around Anoka is said to be
a good one and some of the farmers
around Minneapolis report good yields.
One Brooklyn Centre farmer raised as
high as 224 baskets to the acre, but the
yield was on two acres of land that he
had thoroughly MANFRED for two sea-
sons and got in excellent condition for
prolific yields. But his work has paid
him we'll. The crop around Princeton
has been badly damaged in the low
places and on the heavy land because
of the wet weather and in many places
fully twenty-five per cent of the crop
will be practically ruined. But the
general crop will be fair one if the
weather continues as favorable as it
has the last few weeks.

OLD SETTLER DEAD,
George w. King, One of the Pioneers
of Wyanett, Died on Last
nOnday Morning.
Andrew Larson of Greenbush Has
His Shoulder Blade Broken by
Being Run Over.

George w. King, one of the oldest
settlers in the town of Wyanett, who
lived on section SIX and who has been
in poor health for several years, died
at his home last Monday morning. He
was eighty-one years of age, but de-
spite his feeble condition his life was
heightened out to ripe old years. The
funeral was held at the home in Wyan-
EFT yesterday forenoon at 10 o'clock,
Rev. Jas. Steenson officiating. The re-
mains were inferred in Oak Knoll Gem
etery.
Mr.. King was born at Washington,
Penn, November Is, 1922, and when
quite young his parents emigrated to
Massillon. Ohio. Here he lived until
he became a young man and in 1913 he
married Susan Wilcox at Massillon.
In 1913 he moved to Indiana. and in 1866
he came to Princeton where he re-
manned for five years: and then located
On the land he has made his home for
SO many years. He is survived by his
wife and four children. three boys and
one daughter. They are Albert. who
is married and lives on farm near the
old homestead: Charles, who is mar
ried and lives on the family farm: o.
valid. who is also married and resides
at Princeton, and Mrs. Silas Howard
of Princeton. Three daughters and
one son are dead.
When young man Mr.. King joined
the United Brethren and later at Heb
ron, Indiana, he became a member of
the NJ. E. church. He belonged to that
class of sturdy, industrious settlers who
bore the hardships and privations of
early days that they might build them
selves homes and in doing so they aided
so much in building up the community
in which they lived.

FUNERAL OF OLIVE Il. BARKER.

Body Laid to Rest in Oak Knoll Last
Friday.
The funeral Of Mrs. Olive Ross Bar
ker was held at the Congregational
church last Friday forenoon at 1880
O'Clock. The body arrived from Den
yer, Thursday evening in charge of E..
G. Coulter, of Greeley, Colorado, and
the remains were taken to the home of
Mrs. j. G. Borden until the hour of the
funeral. There was a large concourse
Of people assembled at the church to
witness the funeral services and pay
their last honors to one who in life was
so closely identified with the COM
munity where she had grown up from
a child. 1t was fitting that the funeral
rites should be enacted here amid the
scenes OF which she had been SO active
a figure since childhood, under the
root erected through the efforts of her
revered father, and where she had
never failed to worship save when
prevented by the illness of some one to
whom she felt it duty and a pleasure
to minister. Her own bodily infirm-
tiles seemed rarely. indeed. so great to
cause her absence. To many, during
the impressive service, was the mem

DR.. Hindley's remarks we're touch
ing and most impressive. His text
from 18th Psalm, latter clause of verse

a discourse upon what perfect satisfac-
ton may mean-how the briefest in

feet satisfaction is all that this world
may ever give. 1t can be attained onlv

NEW FIRE ORDINANCE
Council Passes a New Fire Ordinance
and Covers Land East OF Great
Northern Depot.
Council Orders Strip of Wikeen &
Larson Land Condemned for
Street Purposes.

A special meeting of the village coun-
Gil was held last Saturday night to
further consider the matter of the
Wikeen-Larson land adjoining the de-
pot, over which Messrs. Wikeen & Lar
son and the Great Northern are having
a lot Of trouble. The fact that the
owners of the land have had material
placed on the ground for building and
because Of the fact that they have not
been able to effect any kind of salts
factory settlement with either the vii
lage Or the railroad as to land for a
street or siding at the east side of the
depot, caused the council to take prompt
action in the matter and before the
meeting adjourned resolution was
passed authorizing the village attorney
to immediately draft a new fire limits
ordinance including all the territory
now embraced in the present ordi-
nance, Us it has been amended. and to
also include all the west half, of block
OF land in which is located the Wikeen
L Larson property. The council felt
that inasmuch as the railroad company
had given the village fine depot. that
it would not be right to leave the Or
dinance in such shape that any frame
buildings could be built right up close
to the depot. When the Great North
ern built the depot it was supposed that
there was street alongside the right
of way Immediately east of the depot.
and when they began to make surveys
for the new siding they discovered that
the Wikeen & Larson property adjoined
the right Of way. Several propositions
have been made as to the land which
has been giving all parties interested
so much trouble and the council deemed
it the proper thing to settle the matter
so far as the village was concerned by
instructing Village Attorney Mcmillan
to commence condemnation proceed
lngs for sufficient strip Of land across
the Wlkeen &>Larson property to make
a continuation Of Western avenue from
First or Depot street to Oak street or
the roller mill. Unless sufficient land
IS secured for street there will always
be trouble in the future. and the coun-
Gil has acted very wisely by taking
steps to secure q strip Of land for street
purposes.

Collar Bone Broken.

Yesterday afternoon while Andrew
Larson OF Greenbush was unhitching
his team opposite the North Star Lum-
Der Co.'S yards. the horses became
frightened and started to run away.
Mr.. Larson had unfastened all the
traces except one and had let down the
neckyoke, when the team started to
run. He held onto the lines. but as
the horses started up they turned the
wagon around suddenly and the pole
struck him, knocking him down. The
wagon ran over him. and those who
witnessed the accident ran to his as
sistance. He was picked up and placed
on q stretcher at the lumber yard.
DR.. Armitage was summoned and found
that the only injury Larson had sus-
tanned was a fracture Of the left collar
bone. He was taken to the Northwest
ern hospital where his injury was at
tended to by DR.. Armitage. He will
be laid up for some little time The
team was caught before any further
accidents or damage was done.

were sung by the ladies of the Eastern
