NIt recently became known that one
of Filer's prominent bachelors expect
ed to be married in the east along

were successful in their search. Meas
urements have also been taken of the
depth of the water in the lake, also
the temperature of the same. 1t seems
the old system of giving the BRIDE
! groom a free ride on the Higgen-
botham COW is to be renewed in all
cases where Filler man refuses to
