AS we send in our items for the last
week we will endeavor to give our
Hamlin business men a write up.
We begin with p. Kjargaard, gen.
eral merchandise, a very good Dane,
classed with the bachelors, though he
is still on the bargain counter.
Mr.. G.. Johnson, implement dealer.
He is a very nice fellow, but that tank
of his is a very bad sign.
III. Christensen, implement dealer, is
all right, our newest married man and
of course he likes home so well that at
times he forgets that he is in the inn
plement business.
Then J. Justesen, retired postmas-
ter. He will pass but is a little on the
Mormon plan and little advice
| would be good.
Now Tom Bruhn, our jolly good
fellow has the honor to jump from
lumber hauling to post master.
Our buttermaker, Fred Heilman, al
ter a marriage of six years, finds
home more interesting than ever over
the new baby girl, of course.
Now for F. McNally, our black
smith, the only Irishman in Hamlin,
but he is very nice fellow, also a
Roosevelt man and believes in good
soldiers and teachers.
Pete Nelson, grain buyer and stock
buyer is all right and we couldn't be
without his swift moves. ..
Well, Oluf tHansen, our lumber
manager is all right so the girls say.
p. A. Osborne, our depot agent, just
taken off the bargain counter, better
known as the girl masher.
Last and best of all is our Evangel-
ical preacher, Rev. G. Heilman, a
gentleman we'll liked, with no bad
habits.
Thanking you all for the attention
you have given the Hamlin items.
Respectfully, JUST JUsTEsEN.
