MUSEFELDT-JOENS.

MUSEFELDT-J OENS.
Last week occurred the marriage of
Mr.. Julius Musefeldt to Miss Emma
Joens, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Jurgen
Joens. The groom is the son of Mrs
Anna Musefeldt of Jefferson township
and thrift and progressiveness is a part
of his life. julie as he is known to his
friends has chosen an excellent bride,
she being the daughter Of one of the
most progressive farmers in Lincoln
township. Happiness to them is the
wish of scores of friends and acquain-
tances as they sail over the sea of life.
They will begin their married life soon
on farm two miles north of Gray
Nellie GrantZ, teacher at Lincoln No.
3, will soon finish her winter term of
school. She has been walking morning
and evening from her home east Of
Manning distance of nearly miles
Ten miles day is quite walk for a.
girl and this will total 800 miles for the
winter. OF course at times the roads
were so bad and the weather SO severe
that she could not reach home and at
other times she CHANGED to get rides;
bat it is safe to say that Miss Grantz
will have after these deductions at least
800 miles to her credit which should be
considered good enough for the winter
of 1911 and 1912.
Mar. II vote will be taken at the
Center school house of Lincoln township
District No. 5. The present school
house there is one of the oldest in the
northern part of the county and is in a
ridiculous shape, which impairs the
work of the pupils and teachers and
also their health. 1t is expected that
the voting for q new building will be
successful.
Last week the board of directors for
the Liberty Creamery met to choose

past few weeks received letters from 40
different applicants but they were finally

The final vote stood Lund Z, Jensen l.

on the frozen ground and several of his
ribs We're torn loose from the flesh which
caused him considerable pain AT pre-
sent he is nearly well; but the accident
is one to be remembered.
Duce and Bill Armentrout states that
this has been a poor winter for stock
buying on account of the scarcity OF
feed. During the winter of 1910 and IL
they bought and shipped 30 carloads of
cattle. They are good boys ami good
buyers and always pay the top prices,
for stock
