Jay Smith was one of the unfortu-
mates who was forced to spend some
time in South Dakota snow bank,
just this side Of Roscoe, Friday
Jay had intended to leave for a visit
| to the Twin Cities on Thursday of

| two hours late. Not relshing a
"trip on delayed train, with a
chance of missing train connections
| at the other end, Jay decided to post
pone the start until the day follow

Elsewhere in this issue appears q
notice by the county auditor Shat
| within the next three weeks Emmons
county residents who desire to Dor
row money will he able TODD so from
| the state school-fund by fulfilling
| the requirements as to security and
the money will only draw interest at
| the rate of five per cent per annum.
| 1t is a peculiar fact that many per
sons who could have awaited them
selves of this chance in years gone
| bv have failed to do SO probably
| because it was not generally known
/ that they could do so ana. instead
of borrowing this school money at
at five per cent, they have been pay
ing from eight to twelve. At pre-
sent, there are just two Emmons
county residents who have awaited
4 themselves of this cheap rate of in
terest. If there are any who desire
to get sore of these loans they had
4 hotter oct in communication with The
county auditor at once as the time
for preliminary arrangements is
| short
