Almost continuously, the weather
since Oct. 4th up to last Wednes-
day inclusive was probably the
most vicious experienced during
the past year. Tt rained practically
every day, and on Wednesday after
noon the rain was reinforced by a
strong northwest wind that made
outdoor life exceptionally disagree
able. About eight o'clock the rain
ceased, the clouds broke away, and
Thursday morning dawned bright
and clear with indications that the
stormy season had passed.
The fourth annual meeting of the
Western Minnesota teachers asso.

and Saturday, Oct, 18th and 10Th.
A cordial invitation is extended to
all who are interested in school
work and every teacher in the dis
trict should plan to be present. The
success of the meeting depends
largely upon the support it receives
from the teachers by their presence.
A return rate of one third fare has
been secured on railroads going
through Granite Falls, if 70 or more

j. F. Boylan, who has been here
for several weeks past in the inter-
ests of solid rural free delivery
route for Redwood county, is not
particularly enthusiastic over the
prospects of Red wood county being
given the service. Mr.. Boylan has
been forced to report that there are
ITO miles of roads in the county
spots that are impass-
able-in other words, ITO or more
places in roads through which the
rural free delivery agents would
tind it impossible to pass in case the
was given the county.
Wnen this report reaches the de-
partment at Washington the proba-
bilities are that the entire PROPOSE
tion will be shelved for time-cer-
tainly, until the supervisors of the
various towns interested get togeth-
er and make the necessary repairs.
George Lawson of Shelton, Ne
braska, a brother of Mrs. James
Arnold of this city, was visiting
with the latter during portion of
last week. George was born in
Beaver Falls, and shortly after he
first saw the light Of day his par
ents moved to Redwood Falls, and
"a years ago the family moved to
LeSueur, since which time George
has wandered considerably over
the face of the States, finally settl-
ing in Shelton, where he is now
conducting lucrative grocery bus
mess. His visit to Redwood Falls
last week was his first since he left
here "a years ago, and the spectacle
was entirely different from the one
he had painted from his childhood S
recollections. Greatly surprised
was he at the many beautiful public
and business buildings, and he re-
marked: II guess Redwood Falls is
the best after all. "
