The opportunity is still open for some
local capitalist of enterprise to invest in
few goats to cat up the old tin cans
and rust eaten lengths of stove pipe that
still continue to decorate the alley ways
and back yards around town. The city
has a conveniently located dump ground
and the accumulation of last winter I'M
slightly piles of rubbish are a disgrace to
the responsible parties and suits should
be commenced at once by the city to
bring these slow moving property holders
to time. Clean up the city.
From far away Alaska comes news of
the death of Archie McQuarrie, who will
be remembered by many Langdon re-
sidents as having lived here up to about
twelve yearsago. He went to ketchikan,
Alaska, about two years ago and was
engaged in the hotel business. Inhama-
tory rheumatism and typho-malaria are
ascribed as the cause of death. Mr..
McQuarrie was a strong healthy man
aged about thirty five and his sickness
dated only since February. The remains
are being brought to Seattle for inter
ment. Among those left to mourn is a
brother VIM. McQuarrie at Walhalla.
A former Langdon boy, who is rapidly
working his way to the forefront in the
teaching profession, is Roy f. jackson
for the past year principal of the public
schools at Harvey, N. D. An item in the
Harvey Herald of week ago relates o
a school entertainment given by Prof
Jackson and his pupils. The program
included a one-act farce and class drills
as we'll as number of musical and liter
arv numbers and is spoken of as by ia
the best amateu performance ever givel
in Harvey. All of which reflects great
on the ability of Roy Jackson-who vii
he remembered as having got away wit
the Demorest gold medals in both loca
and state oratorical contests years ag
when Langdon was young and the futur
was only beginning to open up for Roy.
