Will Ostrander was hauling hay
Monday. 1t was good hay too as it
sold for $9.50 per o at f. p. Stengel's
sale. He was anxious to get 1t home
before beginning to husk corn for
Will Stengel.
John Millage went after his thresh-
ing rig Tuesday. Queer time to hear
the buzz Of the %threshing machine;
Considerable trouble was experienced
on account OF mud. He had two Jobs
one for Bert Ostrander and one for
Will Westbury. The boys we're both
with him helping to dig 1t out Of the
mud when stalled.
The measles got a grip on John
Stengel and then he was threatened
with lung fever but by prompt medi-
cal treatment it was checked in time.
His many friends hope he will soon be
out enjoying the sunshine.
Mrs. Ostrander was cooking for Will
Westbury' s threshers Thursday as the
boys are are patching at present as
Mrs. Westbury is Ill at Worthing.
Some of the boys from this vicinity
were at the roller skating rink in
Worthing Saturday evening. Some
Of them were having their first exper-
fence. One lost his courage the last
moment and refused to put a skate
on but he was level headed as they
are about as bad IS a genuine "skate."
Clifford Mundy was seen on Sunday
taking a lady to her school. She
teaches in the Gedstad district.
Fred Stengel took a load of straw
to Worthing last Saturday, prepare
tory to moving. He believes in look
Ing after the comfort OF his horses.
Bert Ostrander took a pleasure trip
to Beresford Monday. There wasn't
as much pleasure In the trip as in his
companion, carrier Glen Smith.
News is scarce here this week but
the mud is drying up and the grass is
getting green and we are feeling gay
and looking forward to a bountiful
budget Of news next week. I must
leave you now and grind my PEPPER.
