The party was made up principally
of young men between the ages of
70 and 80 years, though two or
three were past middle life. They
all were well dressed, and might
easily have been mistaken for bank
clerks rather than tillers of the
soil. The families of these men are
expected to follow in about two
months, and from time to time dur,
ing the summer and fall other
parties are expected from the same
part of Holland.
Herman & Johnson. whose store
building was damaged by fire about
six weeks ago, have force of car
penters at work repairing the build
ing. Instead of having a V shaped
roof on the building as formerly,
they have built the outer wall high
er and have made a slant roof to
cover both the main store and the
building adjoining on the south. Tt
makes quite notable change for
the better.

Here is the situation! A county
votes to abolish THE saloons. In
thirty days the resorts are closed.
The business is outlawed. A few of
the old timers will go anv length to
get their drinks. They viii journey
to the neighboring city, if they
have the money, or they will hunt
the bootlegger in the back alley, or
in the old barn. But these are ex-
ceptions and not the rule.
"A large part of the drinking is
done by men who drop into saloon

the saloon gone, the custom is dis
continued. Many men who take a
glass of beer or Is nip of whiskt y

Policeman Williams raided a gamb-
ling room upstairs over the First
and Last Chance saloon, conducted
by VIM. McCaffery. Besides takin &
possession Of the gambling para
phenalia the police lmade several ar
rests, taking in all these who were
in the room at the time of their
visit. The cases came up before
Municipal Judge Mertens this week
and all except McCaffery pleaded
guilty and paid their fines and the
costs in the case, McCaffery waived

Recent analysis of the local water
supply made by state chemists at

samples :were sent sin by Health
Officer Hannum. Reports show
that two ont of three of the samples
of water were very good. In one
instance where an adverse report
was made was on the water taken
from the pump station in which sand
had become mixed. An examina-
tion of the Intake pipe this week
shows this to be in good condition
and local residents will have
little to fear from the dan ger
