BOIL THE "GERMANS."
Denison Youth Suggestes that the
City Water of Denison be Boiled
to Kill the "Germans."

A Denison youth, five years of age,
who had heard his parents talking
of the germs in the city water and
how it would be necessary to boil the
water in order to guard against sick
ness, visited at the home of a neigh
Dor last week and while in the house
asked for a drink The little fellow
went to the kitchen with his friend TO
procure drink and when the faucet
was turnd on told his friend that the
water should be boiled On being
asked the necessity for doing this the
little fellow replied: 'The water must
be boiled to kill the germans that are
in it," We would suggest that if the
Denison boy should happen to find
any of the specie in the water that
he inform the city officials at once
and prevent a catastrophe before the
water is boiled.

DOW CITY ODD
FELLOWS FEAST
Rebekahs Prepare Supper and Odd
Fellows Present ArIey Sterrett
With Huge White Cake.
Most Enjoyable Evening Spent As
Only Odd Fellows and Rebekahs
Know How to Spend.
Dow City, Feb. 24-Special-

Dow City, Feb. 24-Special-
One of the pleasantest events that
has ever transpired in our little town
took place last Friday evening. Some
one remembered that Arley Sterrett
was to leave this week for his new
home at Anthem and Immediately the
Rebekahs got bee in their bonnet
Friday evening was the regular meet
ing of the I. O. o. F. and the Re-
bekahs knew that Mr.. Sterrett would
undoubtedly be present. So they
fixed up fine supper, such as make
the Rebekahs famous, and journeyed
through the Wintry weather to the
Odd Fellow hall, reaching there just
as the order closed it's session. The
ladies took the whole gathering by
surprise. An elegant two-course sup
per was soon being served and oh,
but wasn't it appreciated? Supper
being over w. c. Rolls, as master of
ceremonies, called the meeting to or
der and in neat speech presented
Mr.. Sterrett with beautiful white
cake, decorated with the emblem of
the two orders. Mr.. Sterrett respond
ed in a few we'll chosen words, assur-
ing all present that he appreciated
their kindly thoughts of him and
hoped to be worthy of them. Several
brothers and sisters gave short talks,
the gist of all being their regret at
losing such good member, for Mr..
Sterrett has been faithful and loyal
member of the Odd Fellows for sever
al years and last year joined the sis
ter order and in every place he has
served he has been found trustworthy
and true. No one in recent years has
done more to keep up the high stand
ard of Odd Fellowship than Arley
Sterrett. After which all present
took advantage of the opportunity to
bid Mr.. Sterrett farewell and offer
wishes for prosperity in abundance
in the new home. This gathering is
one that will long be remembered by
the members of these two orders.

NEW REPAIR SHOPS
At CLINTON, IA.

The North Western Railway company
has it's plans perfected for new repair
shops at Clinton, Iowa, which are to
cost, when fully equipped, in the
neighborhood of half million dol
lars. Contracts will be let so that
this work will be started early this
spring.
The shops will be located just east
of the round-house in the western part
Of the city, where the company has
ample ground for the installation OF
the new shops and their enlargement
may be necessitated.
There has been good deal of kind
ly criticism on account of the long de-
lay on the part of the North Western
road in the construction of passen-
ger station at Clinton, but everybody
realizes that a permanent shop i'm
provement is Of far greater value to
the locality in general because it
means the continuation of monthly
payroll of $4,000 or $4,000, and
1CdAAy SuC prosperity VI q COMMUNITY
is more dependent upon the amount
of cash that is distributed in the pay
ment of labor and material than by
passenger station which only
small part of the people use from
time to time. The first step in the
way of a new passenger station is
the removal of the shops from their
present location; when the new struc-
ture is up and occupied and the old
one dismantled and the network of
tracks taken up in that particular To-
cality, then we may look for speedy
realization of our hopes in regard to
a modern passenger station.
In this connection it is worthy Of
note that the c. & N. W.. Ry. COM
pleted a new repair shop at Boone
last year and have plans determined
upon for similar improvement at Mis-
souri, Valley, all of which conserves

Local News Concerning Denison and Vicinity

Mr.. J. C. Saul and wife are in Mis-
souri, this week visiting their daugh.
ter, Mrs Sam Cole.
Mr.. Merriam Miller, of Fayette
Iowa, visited last week with his aunt
Mrs. H. Beardsley, of this city. Mr.
Miller is very successful creamery
man in Fayette.
Miss Anna Schumacher returned
Saturday from two weeks business
trip to Chicago and New York City,
where she has been purchasing spring
stock for the e-Brodersen COM
pany.
Miss Sadie Unterman, of New York
City, arrived in Denison the fore part
of the week and will have charge of
the millinery department Of the
Menagh stores the coming season.
Miss Unterman was in charge of this
department last year and her work
was so satisfactory that she was Sc
cured for the coming season.
Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Weiben left to-
day for Dysart, where they will make
their future home. Mr.. Weiben has
purchased a farm near that place and
will follow the vocation of farming.
He has been employed as repair man
at the Chamberlin jewelry store for
number of years and while in Den
ison made numerous friends who will
regret his departure for Dysart.
Denison and vicinity was visited
on Thursday and Friday of last week
by an old-fashioned snow storm which
nearly assumed the proportions of a
blizzard. Several inches of snow fell
which called out the snow shovels IN
all sections of the city. This is the
first real snow storm Denison has en-
joyed this year and broke up the fine
California weather that has thus far
prevailed. Coal men welcomed the
change of weather with considerable
glee, as coal has been more or less
of a drug on the market this winter.
No doubt the prevailing epidemic Of
grip has been caused by the open win
ter and with this storm it is hoped
that people will enjoy their usual
good health.
There is more or less complaint
by patrons of the Chicago & North
western Railway company on account
of the insufficient light provided by
the company in their waiting rooms
at the local station. While the COM
pany has ample lighting fixtures in
their waiting rooms, it seems that
they are prone to light only small
number of them Passengers taking
evening trains out of Denison are
complaining of the existing condi-
tions. We cannot understand why a
company doing between three and
four thousand dollars worth of bus
mess monthly should feel called upon
to be so economical with their lights
that passengers waiting for trains are
unable to read on account of the poor
lights furnished We hope that pres
sure enough can be brought to bear
on the company to overcome this
fault.

experienced newspaper man with
many years of experience and no

We think that the county board of
supervisors should make an appropri-
alton for the removing of snow from
the sidewalks in front of the court
house. People traversing the walk
on the east side of the court house
block We're forced to plow through
snow drifts which had accumulated
during the recent storm. This is one
of the walks in the city that is used
to great extent and should be kept
in good condition. Other sidewalks,
which do not accommodate nearly as
much traffic, were cleared of the
snow soon after the storm, but this
walk failed to receive proper atten-
ton.
