Meet Sammy Lane.

If you want to meet Sammy Lane
and know all about her sweet love,
her thrilling life among those good
and bad folk of the Ozarks-if you
want to know about the man who
would not fight for her, and also about
the man who risked his life for her
dear soul,-if you want to know about
Sammy's father, Jim Lane, the old
Bald Knobber, Unkle Ike the Post
master at the Forks with his "Ba
Thundas," "Preachin' Bill" "a-sayin'
things as good as David Harum,
wash Gibbs" and the old "Shepherd"'
and all the rest of the people who
lived among the Hills, you can find it
all in "The Shepherd of the Hills"

Wright's novel, which comes to the
Willmar Opera House on Tuesday
evening, Jan. 20.

klNpLlNe WOOD OF A DEPOT
A Fast Freight Jumps the Track at
Waverly Wrecklnq the Depot. -

Dassel Anchor, Jan. 7-One of Jim
Hills ''palatial" depots was knocked
clear off the face of the earth-al
most - Saturday night by special
freight No. 402 which passed that sta
ton at about 11:1O p. m.
The train was moving at a high
rate of speed and the depot, together
with several cars, we're almost reduc.
ed to kindling wood. The east end
of the depot was almost entirely de.
molished. The accident was caused
by broken f1ange.
Luckily there was no one in the de.
pot or on the platform and no one was
injured. The tracks were cleared in a
few hours and there was no Interrupt.
ton to traffic.
1t is one way of getting rid of a de
pot such as the Great Northern sup
ports and it is to be hoped that it will
prove an effective one in Waverly' s
case. 1t is likely however, that the
splinters will be gathered together
and the building patched up to do ser
vice for another half century.

not only be graded, but will be gray

The east and west road which is
about to see extensive improvement
carries an immense amount Of auto.

Americas has the natural resources
that will make it city but the citi-

Americas has outgrown the present
stations that the two railroads have
in the city Americas traffic is large
enough to demand a Union Station.
Americas is entitled to better service
from both roads and will be able to
get it if the citizens demand it. Thl
present facilities offered by the rail-
roads are sadly taxed to care for the
patronage of Americas.
Then the two depots are located
some distance from each other Often
one wishing to transfer from one to
another loses connections because
of the distance between the two sta
tons. Americas is a mighty fine place
to spend a few hours in, but no one
cares to miss train connections even
if one does have the opportunity to
spend a while in the best city n Geor-
gia
Americas needs a union station.
Americas can get one. But it will take
the concerted action Of the citizens of
Americas to get one. The railroads
will not voluntarily go to the expense
to build a Union Station. Americas
