IN MEMORY Of
URBANNA 5. HERR|CK

In the passing of Urbanna Scott
Herrttk this section of the county
loses a familiar figure and most
progressive farmer; society a care
full painstaking friend to his fell
low man; who alway regarded the
feelings of his neighbors and others
i'm his ming CLING With them. He was
born near Extra on the twenty nin-
th day of November 1858 and died,
near, where he had lived for fifty
five years nine months, and four
teen days.
a short time previous to his, de-
misc which occurred last Thursday
he submitted to an examination at
the Atlantic hospital for an inter-
nal trouble, which was pronounced
cancer of the liver and it then be-
ing of malignant form little hope
was given for his recovery. A trip
was also made to the great May
Brothers institution at Rochester
Minnesota and after the most carful
diagnosis the previous examination
was confirmed. He was brought
home as soon as he h2d strength
to stand the journey and everything g
done that kind hands could do of
which he was appreciative to the
last, but he passed to the great be-
yond Thursday last.
He was united i'm marriage to
Miss Clara Blackmore and to them
were born sem and two daughters
His genial and social nature conn
manded the respect of his many
friends who will mourn at his umtin
ly death.
The funeral was the largest ev-
er held in Audubon County.
| His body was laid to rest in Ex-
ira'si City of the dead Reverend
Hollinghead spoke words of cheer
to the bereaved ones and conducted
the last sad rites

VIC ANC|AUX
IN AUTO CAPS|zE

While Vic Ancjau& and three others
were returning from Audubon to
their homes last Saturday evening
and when about eight miles from
town they overlook a drove of hogs
in the road.
Their repeated ''hcmks,' giving
warning of their approach met with
little attention from the hogs; and
whEe endeavomng to pass them
one, got under the automobile in
such a manner as to throw it over t
embankment. 1T rolled three tim
es over before it came to a stop IN
the ditch below. The first turn
threw the occupants all out, Mn
AnciauX received two broken ribs
one shoulder badly injured and htI
hurt. Charley Baker who owns the
auto and who was driving had his
head cut SO that it took three
stitches to close the wound. The
other two were not 50 unfortunate
although they were somewhat i'm
J jured.

MRS. SAM HARM NEAR
SERIOUS ACCIDENT

Mrs. Harm wife of our Ex City
Marshal Uncle Sam Harm had called
her husband and grandchildren to
dinner Thursday last.
She hastened to the cool cave for
butter for the meal; returning she
placed it on the table, when a loud
rumble was heard by all present.
They hastened out doors where
they found the roof OF the cave fro
which Mrs. Harm had made her
exit not over one minute before and
weighing several tons had fallen
lin. Had Mrs. Harm been one minute
slower in getting out she would no
doubt have been caught and buried
under tons of logs and earth The
cave was am old style structure one
constructed before the concrete age,
and when logs were to be had for
their cutting, and earth was very
cheap. 1t was fortunate indeed that
she escaped being crippled fol
life if nothing more serious happen

WORK BEING PUSHED
ON new BUILDING
Ere long the new school building
will be the pride of Extra.

Ere long the new school building
will be the pride of Extra.
The work is going on steadily
aud rapidly, though it will mot be
completed as soon as was original
ly intended. Already however the
beauty of the lines of the new
building is beginning to appear, as
is also the fact that it stands for
all that is newest and best in mod
ern architecture as applied to
buildings of it's kind. Particularly
should be noted the fact that it
lis meant first of all to protect in
the most effective ways the health
of our children.
1t is safe TO say that the day
is past when their eyesight will
be impaired, and when their bodies
will be stunted and misshapen as
the result of attending school. The
windows will be large and proper
ly placed. Fresh air will be taken
IN and driven by a huge fan thru
heating coils to a chamber whence
will be distributed to every study
and recitation room ;and this car
be done SO rapidly that the foul
air of any room can be completely
removed and replaced with fresh all
within a few minutes. The splendid
gymnasium is designed for boys
and girls alike and is nearly per.
feet in it's accommodations fol
either. Taken in all the desigr
throughout seems nearly ideal.
There is pleasure in knowing tha
our little folks are to be SO vel
cared for. The pity is that tht
doors of the splendid new building
should not be open to every child
within hearing of dts bell.

HAVE YOU CUT YOUR
hOX|ODS WEEDS

If you have, you are aid right and
in doing so shows your boosting spi
nit with proper regard for the law
and respect for your neighbor.
The weed nuisance over all Iowa
was SO adominable that the last leg
Iature was compelled to pass a; law
looking to their destruction. That
gave everyone, having the control
over a piece of land, a command to
cut the wee6s adjacent to their pre-
perty and stating what the penalty
if not complied with shall be. Are
you ON the safe side should bunch
of supoenas be sent out? will your
name be written in that bunch?
We know it seems hard to cut the
weeds along your landlords roadside
but, friends its law, and let us be
good law abiding citizens, and cut
the weeds,

SPEND THE TWILIGHT
OF LIFE WITH US

Don't you think it is about time
to retire from the farm and come
to Extra to live?
Perhaps you are getting old and
are beginning to feel that leaden
weight of years. 1t was long, long
ago that you and the good wife
started out to establish a home for
yourselves by hard persistent toll
and to acquire competence for
your dec ming years.
Now you have them and life's twi-
light is at hand.
You deserve rest; and Extra,
the City Beautiful, holds out her
hands to welcome you. Your friends
are here. Some of them perhaps
We're your old neighbors ON the
farm, who have come before you
to abide in our midst. Others are
coming after you. What more pleas
ant arrangement can you think of
than. to spend the rest of your
years with those who have
been your neighbors and friends
throughout the past?
You and the beloved wife have
worked hard and long. You have
earned good rest. 1t is time to
quit and take it little easier. And
Extra is beckoning to you.

WHAT THE JOURNAL
DESIRES FROM YOU.

The Journal wants to know of
events of interest in your home.
1t has said SO very often, as
you may remember; but since you
may not remember, it is now re-
peating what it has said before.
Your strokes of good fortune are
the things DIT likes best to report.
The things which bring increased
happiness into the homes which it
visits weekly are the news items
it prizes most highly because it
loves to see its friends happy. But
there are other things, too, that are
OF interest to your neighbors and
friends. and the Journal wants to,
tell them about them.
The trouble is that it cannot
read your mind at SO great distance
and it does not employ any secret
service emissariess or spies to bring
in the information about you and
yours. And so very many things go
past unnoted which it would very
much like to put into print.
Remember that this refers to YOU
personally. The Journal wants the
news from your home. 1t would like
to have you use the telephone or
the mails, or call at the office when
ever anything happens to you or
yours that is of interest or i'm
portance. Will you not do it?

A RUNAWAY TEAM IN
JURED ANOTHER TEAM

While Mr.. Witt was loading coal
at the George Gill coal yards Tues
day, he dropped his lines to the
ground
Something scared the team a,d
there being no restraint on them
away they ran down the alley.
When they reached the street and
in making the turn, they ran in
to Peter c. Rasmussen's team
the tongue of the Witt team pier
cling the fleshy part of one of the
Rasmussens horses for at leat eight
or ten inches tearing out quite a
large piece of flesh in extricating
the tongue. Mr.. Rasmussen was
awaiting the finishing touches to a
new corn binder for which he in
tended to exchange the old one to
which his team was hitced.
The contact broke the tongue OF
the old binder and at the same
time threw the Witt team both Oft
their feet and piled them UP in a
promiscuous heap.
1t might have been worse for had
that tongue have struck the amin
al in the region of the heart in all
probability it would have died in
the harness.

new MARSHAL

Bert made a model officer, and it

his dray teams. The wearing of the
