County Treasurer

County Treasurer, George KEEL
logg with loud acclaim desires to
inform everybody that the treasury
of Audubon County is now in the
pink of condition and will pay off
that warrant you have had tucked
away in one corner of your purse
for many months, wondering what
was the matter of our county. When
everybody were paying their taxes
as usual. Audubon County was
not paying her obligations "for
want of her funds" Sad memories
this brought to some of the older
citizens, for it is still fresh in the
minds of many when this occurred
in the long ago. And what hap
pened soon thereafter. Let us try
to forget.

Alcohol VS. Gasoline

In the spring of 1906, the National
Congress passed an act which became
a law, January 1, 1907, permitting the
withdrawal from bond, tax free, do
nestle alcohol, when it was denatured
or rendered unfit for human con-
sumption by the addition of certain
materials repugnant to the taste and
smell. The passage of this law has
aroused much speculation into the
possibilities of this new fuel. The
Experimental Station compared gaso.
line and alcohol with four objects in
view, viz: QD-the heat value of the
fuels; (2)-their economy in the pro-
duction of light; (3)their economy in
the production of power; and (4)-the
relative safety of gasoline and alcohol
for general use, the conclusions
reached in these experiments will
prove very interesting to every reader.

The Unexpected

Happened in our office last press
day. A happy band of our middle
aged people, some months ago,
organized the mselves into society
and named it "The Jolly Eighteen"
Now we would not have you
think that THE NAME pertains to
the age of it's mem bers, for there
are many in the organization who
will never see that period of their
existence again, and to see them in
session with the hoodwinkers on,
one would think they had reached
thirty.
The 20. E." often have party at
the home of some member when
it's great favor to the outsider to
receive an invite. The last assem-
bly, of the kind was at the home OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Boy Herrick. The We
hicles were pressed into service on
this occasion of every imaginable
description and before the feast
was spread, forty of the j. E's and
their guests had assembled. The
manner OF meeting for the repast
| was to be all alike with the ladies,
so each brought "sheet and a
pillow case" as their regalia, while
the gentlemen, being equal TO the
emergency, arranged a few odds
and ends too.
This happy event was written up
and groomed for exhibition last
week but as we before remarked
the unexpected happened to it and
up to the present time we have
been unable to locate it. We should
have made motion for a recon.
sideration to again write it last
week but it is one of the 'Jolly
Eighteen's by laws that there be nc
motions, no voting, 80 we were
rustrated until this week, when we
| write it as news.
