Once A Man
Twice a Boy. Three Times a WHAT

On the crowded streets of Audubon
last Saturday just after the conven-
ton adjourned, while in the rank and
file that jostled US along at 2:30 two
hours and thirty minutes) clip, our at
tention was called to figure whose
poise appealed to US as one that we
had seen and knew some twenty or
more years ago. Up near Ross did
we live in those days, 30 also did the
subject of our sketch. Then he was q
man of middle age, today If his looks
do not deceive him he is about 80, or
maybe 35. Growing young and hand
somer all the time; but when one
looks around and sees the grandchild-
rem climbing upon grandpa's knee,
each seeking the recognition they had
received before "dampa" went east,
one is amazed that they will own such
"sight" as relation, but when one
stops to consider that men may be
mistaken, but children never, then
does our sympathy get the upper
hand and we try to adjust our spec.
tacles and see as they do. Grandpa
Ben Carr went to visit his relatives
and friends-or at least all that were
left-on Fly Creek, State of New York.
He went away looking natural, for he
had put in the best years Of his life
among US. Always erect, hearty and
healthy, but as he was entertaining
an unwelcome visitor (rheumatism)
he thought that visit to his old
home would cure him, so thither he
hied, and to make matters conspicu-
GUS, of course had to commit some
HAIRLESS insult to his anatomy, so
choosing the latter Ben shaved off his
whlskers that he had brought to such
prominence in Audubon county dur
ing his twenty-five years. stay, and
which has caused him to be singled
out in every group of dudes in which
he enjoyed SO we'll to be, as "that gen.
tleman with the flowing beard" But
alas, alack, where there was once a
perpetual beauty and joy we find to-
day a hairless guy. If on US his de-
ception won, the son-of-a-gun, he's
clever, although we may be never.
But one thing we do know, by Jim,
and that is that every Rebekah for
miles around will know him, and if
on them, too, he practices his decep-
ton, he'll meet with very warm re-
ception.
p. S.-Mr. Carr returned from his
visit east quite improved in mind,
body and appearance. Ahem!

The Audubon Gun Club
The Fourth Annual Tournament Held
Last Week-A Great Success

The fourth annual tournament of
the Audubon Gun Club held here
August I'd and Sd was the most
successful ever held at this place.
Every shooter present took part in
the shoot at some time in the two
days. The office was in charge of
Fred Whiting of the Winchester
Company and was handled in his
usual faultless manner. The trade
was represented by w. G. Budd,
Charles Spencer, r. Mains, r. r.
Barber and S. r. Fitzsimmone.
Much interest was taken in the con.
test for the Handsome trophy given
by the Audubon Commercial Club,
which an Iowa shooter could not
hold but was obliged to surrender
to Dick Linderman who IL to be
congratulated upon his splendid
shooting, not only for the trophy
but all through the tournament,
failing to win high general and
high amateur average by only two
targets. These averages were won
by II. G. Taylor of Meckling, South
Dakota, Linderman coming in as
second, Spencer third, Barber
fourth on the general average,
with Spencer first and Barber Sec
ond on professional average.

It Saved Our Bacon"

One of our subscribers took us to
task this week for failing, as he re-
marked, to publish all that happened.
1t was fortunate for this particular in
dividual that discretion occasionally
demands the omission of unpleasant
items. Should we publish all that is
told us we would "be with the angels''
in about twenty minutes after our pa.
pers are mailed. We try to print all
items of news, or that will encourage,
help, or cheer, any of our citizens
along LIES rugged road. For instance
last week gentleman down in Extra
said to us: "Hello, Mr.. Editor,
thought you were in for split cocoa
nut (meaning, suppose, a crack on
the pate) the first time my wife saw
you" "Why?n said 1. "Well," eaid
the red headed man, "'twas this way.
We had baby over at our house last
night or this morning, I don't know
which, and when the paper came my
wife looked it over q couple of times
and couldn't find the account of it,
and she swore vengence on you, when
finally one of the neigbors had found
the item stuck away with Nick Doff-
ing's Rocky Mountain Tea, and just
stepped in to see if it was 50; and Of
course it was SO all around, and that
saved your bacon, Mr.. Editor" But
the laughable part came in when this
fond red headed parents business
partner suggested that the baby was
red headed too, when quick as a flash
the red headed father denied it, 80
there you have the story. Such hair
breadths experiences as we do have in
this world any way. That partner,
and this editor.
