Corder to Miss Gertrude Anna Dealy

young man was formerly of Corder
and is we'll known to all,
at a meeting of the stockholders
of the Corder Creamery company last
Saturday new board of directors
was elected and other problems of
interest we're discussed. The Corder
creamery declared five per cent
dividend in 1907 and a ten per cent
dividend this year This is good
showing for the creamery and Corder
should be proud of such an institu-
tion.
The baseball season opened last
Sunday when the Corder second
team won decisive victory over the
A. Stewarts of Kansas City. The
day was cold and disagreeable but
Notwithstanding this large crowd
was present to witness the contest.
Both sides played good ball ard few
errors were made. At the close of
the ninth inning the score stood in
favor OF Corder, II to s. It is hoped
that the first team will be as success
full this season as the second team
was in the opening game.
