DRISCOLL NOTES

Lots of rain every week and every
thing in prime condition for a good
crop.
W. W. Reavely went to Bismarck
yesterday. Mrs. Reavely does not i'm
prove in health and her sister has
come from Superior, Wis, to take
her to that place where she will be
among relatives. Mr.. Reavely's trip
to Bismarck was for the purpose of
seeing her comfortably started on her
journey.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Walcott of Sum-
NIT, S, D., will arrive this week in
Driscoll and proceed to establish
themselves in the restaurant and
home bakery business. They have
leased the new building on the north
side which C. J. keenan, is erecting
for their use. Their coming will
mean another family for Driscol1 and
they should meet hearty welcome.
Driscoll has had no preaching
services for two Sundays now
, The Medina base ball club came
up Sunday in all its glory accom-
panied by pretty good band and
took few kinks out of our boys. 1t
was not such a bad game though, ex-
cept in one instance and that is hat
it was played on Sunday. The
writer is not alone here in thinking
that Sunday should not be desecrated
by ball games. There il no good ex-
cuse for it. People in general would
be better off to take a fa]f holiday
during the week to see a game. They
would be no poorer in purse either.
