The Glenwood post., 1914-08-15

are enjoying their vacation and hav
ing q good time. We wonder how
ofts. it happens, that most of US feel
like We could leave work and care with
sonebody else, and hike to the hills
and streams ourselves. But it happens
that others have beaten us to it. and
We fall to the lot of doing the work,
while others play. So hot as it gets,
it won't make it bit cooler to fret
AID worry, because you did not happen
to be the lucky one, to play and frolic
instead of work and worry these hot
"dog days..
For the same reasons that We are
with those who can't have their vaca
tions these days, and with the thought
that misery loves company, we are
going to make it more miserable by
pounding out the following, call It
what you may, and let it 80 at that.
AZ We always did like Walt Mason s
style of writing, We initiate his style:
"Darn it all, this vacation call,
makes . fellow hate to work. Makes
him hate this awful fate, that ties him
down to toll. Makes him wish that
- eoaA hAh in mountain lakes and
streams. Oh, to be free! not up =
tree with sorrow, care and strife. To
fesl the glow of the red blood Is flow,
through fellows feverish frame. To
east away beyond all sway, this ever
lastia' wark and care. To give 4
wAoop, and . tango loop-and hike for
the grand old hills. That's the dope,
ths only hope for fellow that's feel
in down and out"
Every now and then We get remind.
efs that that gigantic trout is still
alive, which Is you readers will recall
got away with our gray squirrel, some
Aoaths ago, near the Hardwick bridge.
Our first report Of that furious mon
ster was in the vicinity Of BassIt.
Then came . story from New Castle,
stating that that trout had gotten a.
way with several fine ducklings.
OtAe1s claimed to have spotted him
arosnd- Eagle, now comes Art Smith
Of Four Mile and he is positive that
his son, Carl, has the distinction Of
slaining the hsaer Of sstshiae this
monster trout. for proof, he hailed us
the other day, and showed us very
large trout that Carl had caught m
-Four Mile that day, and was positive
it was that trout that has helped place
an item or two in these columns, now
and then. Perhaps it is, but We are
doubtful, for large as was the fish
that Carl caught, we can't feel that it
wss large enough to commit the de.
predations heretofore reported.
Mr.. and Mrs. ClausSievers, of Ben
son Nebr., are spending a few weeks
with their son-in-law and daughter, Mr.
and Mrs. Herman Verdieck, of Four
Mile. The Sievers' are enjoying the
wonderful climate of Colorado and real
ly would like to settle and live here,
Is do 50 many who come here, but as
they have . fine six hundred and forty
acre farm near Benson, Nebr., and ex-
tensive property in the Nebraska city
they will return in short time, after
. most enjoyable visit with the Yer
dieck family, and also some days spent
With another daughter, Mrs. Henry
Frahm, of Rife.
A large number of Sunlight people
accompanied Mr. and Mrs. Jack Rodiy
of Glenwood, last Saturday afternoon
when their little infant son, of just u
year, was buried in the Rosebud GEM
etery. The dear little fellow could no.
revive from a severe attack Of whoop-
ing cough, and passed away last Fri
day, . week ago. All of US feel the
loss of the baby which was one of the
twins, and extend our deepest sympa-
thy and coincidence to Jack and Mrs.
1eddy over their sad loss.
A. 8. Applcby is the first one on the
r F. D., to start the ball rollin' in
Tie way Of harvesting. Fred Haugh
was the man Of the hour, with Deere
biSder and made short work Of Mr..
Appleby's splendid stand of oats and
wheat. After Fred had finished, others
sssosd to have gotten inspiration Of
the harvest mood, and for the past
week everybody il doing it-cutting
their oats and wheat. Some had to
tackle part Of their grain by that old
haek-breaking stunt Of swinging a
cradle, - the grain was 30 badly lodg-
