After hearing what business they were
liable to secure by coming thru this
town, they went aWay greatly pleased
with the idea of including Graettinger
in their route.
A good-sized delegation from Graet-
finger met with the directors of the
railroad at Emmetsburg last Wednes-
day, and presented a list of stock
subscriptions from a large majority OF
the business men and property owners
in this town, and also from several
farmers along the proposed right OF
way, and we believe the directors OF
the railroad awoke to the fact that to
leave Graettinger off of their route
would mean a big loss of patronage
from this hustling town.
The proposed route comes into the
town from the south and then turns
westward, taking in the western part
of Walnut township on the south. and
the north half of Lost Island township
on the west, and running northwest
towards Terrill. A survey will shortly
be made and if proper encouragement
is received along the route the lance
seem very bright for its location.
C;raettinger has always had the rep
utsLtion of being a live, up to date
town, and it is the practically unanf-
nous opinion of it's citizens that to Sc
cuce this road will mean a big step
towards a bigger and a better town
in every way.

movement had been a profound Sc

father was going to give the whole
story to the press. When Mr.. Ward
read the story he was at first IN
clined to lick the editor but upon
mature deliberation he concluded that
he had better tell the whole story, and
his side of it.
The strange thing is that Thalbert
Pattee. the once irate father, is now
entirely "mollified." When his daugh-

returned, he concluded that he did

rested as badly as he thought he did.

A little child, "they all are mine!"
Or causes them the least alarm,
Shall feel the Fathers wrath divine.

As on, unframed, the fodder passed,
The desert winds forgot to blow,
The friendly sage-brush held him fast.
The lizard scooted Ger his path,
The ugly horned toad stopped to play.
-.e rabbit listened to him laugh,
1t was indeed baby's holiday.
a .undred hands were busy then
10 horse! the sturdy rancher cried!
Let's search the Desert-ye riding
men,
For lost Is Bob, our Ranch's pride.
Out seven miles on weary waste
Two nights, In cold and pelting rain,
Onward the little one blithely chased,
Undaunted, dared the thorns to pain.
Beneath the friendly sage's branch
The boy at last was safely found,
He seemed to sense again the ranch,
Forgot were care and thorny wound.
The horseman refined his tired steed
The boy looked UP and bravely cried
To him (who came in time of NEEDY
Pony-baby ride! baby ride?
Bless you my sturdy boy
Yes ride! you bet your boots you can,
Your fathers heart we'll fill with Joy,
I i take you back to Mama again.
The Inner really cannot paint
Nor poets sweetest song portray
The look on baby's face so quaint
The welcome Mother gave that day.
