New Town Council
Takes Its Seat.

Our new council took its seat
Monday night without great
pompt or ceremony. No flowers
were in evidence either for the
retiring members or the new ones,
indicating that sentiment has no
place in the realm of public serv-
itude. Hence no significance,
we trust, can be attached to the
absence of the flowers.
The retiring board was pres
ent, except Trustee Vetting, and
and after finishing up their busi-
ness, vacated their places in the
best of grace and expressing
best wishes to their successors.
Treasurer Buck reported about
$1400 on hand after all bills are
paid. This does not include this
years taxes.
Mayor McFadden called the
newly elected councilmen to their
places and gave them the oath
of Office. They then seated
themselves about the table and
proceeded to the order of bust
business.
The following appointments
were made:
C. R. Buck, Town Treasurer.
Geo. B. Campbell, Town At
torney.
DR.. E. L. Foster, Health officer.
j. G. Nolan, Mayor pro tenn.
The mayor deferred announc-
ing the committees until next
meeting owing to absence of Geo.
Williams, Trustee-elect. w. E.
Peterson was granted license
for four pool tables, At this
juncture Rev. Sanderson called
for the ordinance governing pool
halls to be read and caused some
anxiety on the part of those who
We're doubtful of his position on
the question. His prompt aye,
after the ordinance was read
took away all apprehension, and
Mr.. Peterson heaved a sigh of
relief.
The matter of boys riding BIZ
cycles on the sidewalks was dis
cussed and the Marshall was in
structed to enforce the ordinance.
The Ralston sidewalk matter
was discussed and the work or
dered to proceed as rapidly as
possible. j. F. White was given
the privilege of moving his walk
or building a new one. All men,
bers Of the board were present
except Williams and took a lively
interest in the business before
them. They adjourned subject
to the call of the mayor.

1.-THE big snow pile which some
thought would remain with US
till June, has disappeared entirely,
much to the qualification of MIR.
Hurst, who was sponsor for it.
The editor and wife have been
showered with congratulations
this week over the arrival at their
home last Saturday morning of a
young editor from Storkville.
This is our first experience in the
role of dad" and we have been
accused of busting three buttons
off of our vest and various other
ways of expansion. While we
are not be guilty of these things
literally, fguratively we are. and
then some. We are glad to re-
port mother and son in fine health
and to express our hearty appre-
citation of the many friendly in
quiries. In the absence of the
proverbial rain barrel we are
talking into the dish pan to see
how it will sound to be called
papa.

w. C. Updike reports a mon
strosity at his place in the form
of a baby bull calf without any
hair. He is perfect in every
other way, being a thoroughbred
Holstein. Except for a little
ringlet where the horns are sup
posed to be, he hasn't enough
hair to flag a mosquito. Mr..
Updike thinks if he can propa-
gate a breed Of hairless cattle
his fortune is made because he
will cut ont the tanners profit.

careful not to advertise it. How
ever, he will receive royal well
from his many friends on his re-
turn.
