Willie Hilderbrand, of Morganton,
committed suicide Friday by jumping
into reservoir at a cotton mill near
the town. The young man was nine
teen years old and clerked in a drug
store at Morganton. The water in
which he drowned was only eighteen
inches deep and it appears that he
lay in the water until he strangled to
death. He had not shown any signs
of insanity recently but acted pecul-
lar at times in his younger days.

court decided, upon an appeal from Da-
kota City, that the court house building

the voters Of the county. The court, hold
ing to this view. enjolned the removal Of

court house had proceeded 70 a point
where the plaster was about 10 be put

1t isn't true that there are no great

Germany. there are women cooks with
a big staff of kitchen employees under

good managers. A chef has TO be both.

afford either the time or money which IL
needed in learning to cook like that. They
have TO get their practical experience and
instruction while they are earning their
living. and naturally their range OF know
ledge IL apt TO be limited TO the kind
Of cooking demanded by the small family
or the modest restaurant and hotel
cuisine.
