HERE AND THERE.

Strawberries and cream is no longer
a dream.
Robert Twist is separating "a newtwo-
row corn pillow.
This wet weather is giving the weeds
a good start before the pillow.
Measles have entered the Charles
Baird home, one of his little girls be-
ing the victim.
A fierce electric storm came dashing
across the 'Botna Valley, Sunday
afternoon. Two of w. ID. Stanley's
cattle fell victims to the vicious light
ming.
The union picnic planned by Old
Hamlin, Champion Hill and Sunny
Side schools was blighted by inclem-
ent weather.
An excellent entertainment under
the management of the teacher. Miss
Vivian Deweese, terminated the spring
term at Little Valley school, Friday
June seventh.
James Roberts spent a pleasant
Sabbath at the Art Warner home.
The heaviest rain of the season fell
| Sunday. 1t so maddened the Blue
| Grass brook that it leaped from its
banks and went frolicking about the
adjacent fields.
Hal May supplied Hamlin's market
with fine bunch of hogs, Saturday.
]. +. Colee has put a new first-class
mail box in convenient position. The
carrier certainly appreci ates this i'm
provement.
We have had series of most beau
tiful rains, every one of which has
been rubbed in, too.
Corn is looking bri ghter,
Small grains looking fine,
Hearts are growing lighter
All along the line.
w. H. Fry has improved by fencing
hog pasture with electric weld fenc-
ing.
Mrs. Charles Sloan was so indis-
posed as to be unable to particip ate
in Childrens' Day entertainment, at
the Baptist church in Greeley, in con-
sequence of which they were postponed
Neighbors between whom there is q
poor line fence are very likely to be
on the outs unless common sense
comes to their rescue.

were an obstruction. The automobile
did have right; there. Who pays
the damage?
1t seems that the Register and Lead
er would insinuate that there is some
danger Observation-Disclosures damaging
his illustrious career we're he again
to return to the senate. There might
be something in this, for we all know
that to every American citizen it is a
matter of regret that Mr.. Sherman
did not retire from public life before
senility made such a pitiable spectacle
of him. However, if Mr.. Allison is
returned, he will doubtless add new
honors to the senate and himself.
Frew Hays drove over to Hamlin,
Tuesday to meet his wife who was re-
turning from visit with relatives at
Anita. While getting ready to go
home he passed close to the heels of
one of his horses which, it seems, mis-
took him for another horse and kick
ed viciously, landing terrible blow
on Mr.. Hays stomach. For moment
he lay breathless in the street, then
staggered to his feet, and regained
control of the team in time to prevent
a runaway. After reaching home Mr..
Hays feelings were such as to cause
him to call Doctor Rendleman, of
Extra, who found nothing more seri-
Gus than severe bruise which con-
fined Mr.. Hays to his bed for day
or two, and at this writing the victim
OF the accident is on duty once more.
IT'S PUZzLING
The rain poured down upon the hills
Now every body's glad
1t puzzles me, | cannot see
Why all the streams are mad.
Another thing most puzzling-
You all no doubt have seen
That Blue Grass is not blue at all,
IT'S decided green.
With rank Blue Grass the hills are
green;
Can all be very true?
But 1t does not mean when painting
green
To dip your brush in blue. :.
