Porkey.

The National Transit company's station
here has been running several days and
the oil stock is bting reduced IN the
storage tank.
The people here are wondering what Is
being done in regard to the removal of
the school building and hope the matter
will be taken up soon 80 as to be ready at
the beginning of the term close at hand.
Something should be done at once as the
people do not like to send their children
to the old building.
The boys OF town have established a
camp up Porkey run for an outing and
spent Friday and Saturday and the nights
up there. Saturday Reed aud Ross
Weller of Kellettville came up and
camped with the boys. Saturday the
girls went up with lunches and enjoyed
the woods. Two Of the Rupert and the
two Weller boys remained in camp over
night and had lovely time during the
severe electrical storm that visited our
parts Saturday night. We all expected to
see the boys come arunning down the
run, but they were game and stood 1t
though" as the hicks say.
Mr.. and Mrs. J. w. Littlefield and Mrs.
G. L. Littlefeld attended the funeral of
the late Mrs. Warner of Msrienville,
Thursday, and on Friday Claude and the
children went to Barnes. Claude Is not
yet strong enough to get into the harness
j. F. little foreman for the National
Transit Co. was the guest of o. E. Rupert
on Wednesday, looking after the COM
psny's affairs here.
Andrew Hanson. Lyle Patchen and Mr..
Hanson, of Sheffield, we're here last week
reconstructng the line to the Dufier
lease which is now owned by Keller of
Warren and Francis OF Clarendon, and is
making some oil, having been fixed up
and another well drilled.
Mr.. Hockenberry of Warren was a
visitor in our town last week doing photo |
work for the natives. He is giving salts |
faction at Mayburg and other places along |
the creek. Come again, old scout.
The road men put the finishing touches
on the roads here last week and we ought |
to be very thankful for the nice highway |
we now have. We hope from now on to
eternity the roads can be kept up by the
state, so that the township will not be
compelled TO act as IL had to this summer
There was preaching services at Min
lister Thursday evening by Rev. Smallen-
berger of Kelettville, which was we'll at
tended for this part of the country.
Edward McMillen OF Kellettville, who
is staying with the II. K. Gillespie family
of that place, was the guest of Marian Ru-
pert two days last week.
The storm of last Wednesday mixed up
all the wires, and even the New Era was
crossed with the telegraph near Sheffield,
but able to do business.
The new style of wearing dusting caps
is in our estimation about the most sen.
sible idea In woman's wear that we have
seen lately. These caps are made of any
material the owner happens to have the
price Of whether of calico or the most
costly kind OF fabric, We think they are
very pretty. Now they should devise a
more pleasing kind of skirt for the
woman, as the half length flap on the out
side of skirts makes a female look hide
Gus to our unframed eye.
Mrs. NJ. l.. Ekss and Mrs. James Hayes
of Sheffield stopped over at Balltown
and made Mrs. James Nc.
Michael call. while the boys of the party
drove to Kellettville and back.
j. W. Dunklo was a Sheriff visitor
returning on the evening train.
The train is looking very nice now since |
