Charley Peterson from Wang spent a
few days with Sam Bratten short time
ago. He made the trip on his wheel.
He seems 20 enjoy wheeling.
Maurice klath from Wang came up
last week and will spend the rest of the
summer with Ed. Hill. so the CORE
spondent has heard from the neighbors.
Sam Bratten entertained number
OF friends on June 26th. AS near as
the correspondent has learned the
fine time
James Ellefson and wife have been
away attending the Norwegian Baptist
conference in Park River from the BIRD
to the 26th of June, and then left for
Grand Forks to attend some meetings
there
1t was noticed that Ed Hill was alb
sent last Sunday. He was out south
after Atty. Sandvold and his sister,
Annie, on Friday. They left for Wang
on Saturday where their parents gave
them hearty welcome to spend the
Fourth of July with them.
The boys of the northern part of Ber-
lin and Moscow have bought base
ball outfit this season so they intend to
have few games this summer for
pastime. Some of them are little
green as base ball players yet, but the
practice will help them come to time
Abe Ellefson says he can get all the
work he wants this summer. as nearly
everybody he sees asks him if he is
going to work away from home this
fall. He has chance to help Carl
Amooth build a granary now and has
been there few days already. We see
the granary coming up fast.
Clarence Ellefson made good use of
the colts and the new buggy two weeks
ago when Sam Bratten had many visit
ing friends. Clarence took the school
maams to their schools near Rosehill.
Shortly after their departure the friends
noticed G. P. leave for the same destina-
ton. He seems little uneasy.

Waiting for It to Drop.

"A travelling man stopped at hotel
at Monticello. The proprietor told him
he could not lodge him, not a room III
the house." said a commercial trav-
eler. The travelling man protested.
He must have a room. Finally tne
proprietor told there was room.
a little room separated by a thin par
tition from a nervous man, a man who
had lived in the house for ten years.
'He is so nervous" said the land
lord, i don't dare put any one in that
room. The least noise might give him
a nervous spell that would endanger
his life
"rOh, give me room.' said the trav-
eler. III be SO quiet he'll not know I'm
there
.cyyeii. the room was given the trav-
eler. He slipped in noiselessly and be-
gan to disrobe. He took off one ar
ticle of clothing after another as quiet
ly as a burglar. At last he came To his
shoes. He unlaced a shoe and then,
man like, dropped it.
The shoe fell to the floor with a gret
noise. The offending traveller:
Mortified at what he had done. waited
to hear from the nervous man. Not
a sound. He took off the second shoe
and placed 1t noiselessiy upon the floor.
Then, in absolute silence. he finished
undressing and crawled between the
sheets.
Half an hour went by. He had
dropped into a doze when there came
a tremendous knocking on the partt-
ton.
The traveller sat up in bed trembling
and dismayed "Wh-wha-what's the
matter?' he asked. Then came the
voice of the nervous man:
Blame you! Drop that other shoe.

He turned away with the air Of ono
who had settled the matter definitely

he didn't know the woman.

pathos in her voice. Thirty dollars
