night. Wood has no empty buildings
nor even an empty room, neither is
our much talked of Auditorium com

place to have a dance or other gather.
ing. Most of the surrounding towns
have no public hall but nearly all
have empty store rooms which can be
used for dances etc. We are glad to
note that there are no empty build
ings in Wood, and personally we
hope there never will be, but that
does not dispose of the fact that we
do need that Auditorium, and We
need it bad almost every week. Now
honestly, don't you think that if we
get right down to business
and work together that we could get
that Auditorium and have something
in Wood in the amusement
line every once in a whileG 1t is wor-
your serious consideration.

Guenthner Bros, of Dallas were
here last Thursday and Friday with
a party of thirteen Germans from
Hutchinson county, South Dakota,
and a majority of them bought re-
linquishments and decided land with
in a few miles of Wood. Some time
ago these same people located a small
colony of nine families north east of
town, which now gives the German
colony in this section of the county q
good start. II is estimated that there
will he at least one hundred families
of these Germans locate near Wood
before the middle o. the summer.
They are all sturdy, successful farm
ers, who will help develop these fer.
tile lands and make Mellette county
blossom like a rose. These people are
devout Lutherns, and IL will not be
long until they have a church build
ing after they locate here. We are
glad to see them coming in for it

this new country, as they are expert
farmers, stayers and not essily dis
