SILCHER, THE OPTICIAN, here
Friday and Saturday, April 28th
and Goth.
F. w. Stabler, manager of the
the mill, has been on the sick list
this week.
Photographer Frank Reeves
little daughter, was on the sick
list the first of the week.
julius Runge went to the
cities the first of the week to

About one third of the rural
schools have closed their winter
terms, and a number more will
close within the next few days.
F S. Reeve, the photographer
is contemplating making num-
Der of improvements on the in
terror of his studio, painting,
papering, and some minor
changes.
A representative of the
HERALD ADVANCE talked with a
number of the farmers during
the week. They are becoming
worried over the frequent cold
nights and say that too many of
them are injurious to wheat.
The union services at the Con
gregational church, Sunday
evening, was well attended, the
auditorium being crowded.
Miss Louise Seide and Mrs. G.
E. Mills, each favored those
present with a solo. Rev. Ly-
man IS sermon will be found in
another column.
Manager De Forest, of the
citizen S band has sent invitation
to the bands at Webster and
Waubay to be present on Decor
alton day, when Governor Elrod
will be in Milbank 1t is hoped
that many of the citizens of these
towns will be present and thus
have a joint celebration of the
day.
A good suggestion was made
the other day, by a man who
noticed so many pieces Of paper
flying along Main street. At a
small cost large garbage cans
could be purchased and placed
at convenient points along Main
street. People would soon get
into the habit Of throwing these
pieces Of paper into them, and
thus do away with this nuisance.
1t would also reduce the chances
of some horse becoming scared
and running away, perhaps in
juring or killing some one.
W. w. Mount, the painter and
paperhanger has just received
very nice assortment of samples
of the latest styles and patterns
of wall papers. Sanitas and
Linewalls are just the paper for
the bath room or kitchen. Also
full line of samples of imported
papers and burlaps. Anybody
wishingto examine these samples
should see Mr.. Mount or call
him up by phone, No. % 4, and he
will call. All work promptly at
tended to and guaranteed first
class.
