it halls and storms almost every day and
all kinds ofwOrk Is standing still although
we are most fortunate to escape injury.
( We have often heard marvellous stories
Z of the intelligence and sage Of dumb
! creatures, but we have a story that seems
unreasonable, although it Is guaranteed
to US for a sure fact by Charles Liudle,
whose word is beyond suspicion. Here
I lates it this way: A ueighbor has large
l flock of ducks, among which is a massive
muscOvy drake. They are wired away
1 from fine crimson clover field by a two
1 foot poultry netting. This wise old drake
/ jumps on the wire and mashes It down
aud holds it until each duck has passed
over into the clover field. When they
have satisfied their appetites Alr. Drake
holds down the fence until they pass out.
This occurs daily and many neighbors
have been called in to see this most Won
derful performance.
Now everybody remember that Satur-
day night; april 18th, big time, much
fun and refreshments is in store for them
at the School House. A Tie Social, and
lastly the boxes brought BY the pretty
damsels will be sold to the highest and
best bidder. This IS to be the most choice
and elaborate affair ever seen at Ellen
dale, so cheap and good, and given by the
graduating class of our High School, to
aid them IN their commencement exer-
cises. Who comes and aids them on the
evening of the 18th will be admitted to
the graduating exercises and will hear
the brightest class ever turned out of Ell
lendaie. So come out and be generous
and help the struggling youngsters along.

The Ewing Bill just passed by the
Legislature and now up to Gov. Miller
approval, is agitating our people much, ]
and all hope that the Governor will veto
it as class legislation. The ''wets" OBJ
ject 70 it as they want their grog, and the
'drys" object from the fear that it will
bring about an election on the liquor
question and that they will be badly beat /
en-, as many who voted dry are satisfied !
10 have it the present way, but they pre-
fer license to no liquor at all.
