While there Is u rapid movement
| in Buffalo county farm ands and
values are going higher every day,
it is n very noticeable fact that none
OF the old time residents Of the coun-
ty are disposing of their possessions.
Eor are they desirous of doing SO.
During their % years residence here,
through years Of little and those OF
plenty, they clung to the faith that
a brighter future awaited them
and the day OF their reward is at
hand. Today, they can sell their
| land for much more than they ever
anticipated, a few years back, but
they are content to remain and ell
Hoy the seasons OF unbroken prosper
ity made possible by their years OF
toll and waiting.

direction. At all events the boy
fought to be given the same chance
with the pups.-Ex.
