Thursday-in our city and made
this office a pleasant call. He said
he landed one juicy job while in
the city.
Valley City has received some
good advertising since the press
meeting. Editor Trubshaw
worked hard enough for it and
he deserves advertising as we'll
as his home town which should ba
iproud of such a citizen.
Editor Holbein of the Lansford
journal says the reason he
kicks so much is because he is
proud of his city. He kicks if
the post holes are not filled up,
the weeds left standing, the
streets in poor order and the
sidewalks in a dilapidated condi-
Non and his kicking seems. to
bring results. Keep the good
work up.
Last week the Steele Ozone
started it's thirtieth year, and
twenty4third under the ownership
Of H. s. Wood. He will change

neers in the newspaperdom in
North Dakota. May he live to
write many more good editorials.
Harold Wolfe, who. has been in
partnership with H. L. Stanley in
managing the Garrison ". INDIE

Editor E. j. Jones of the Turtle
Lake Wave has taken his family
to Iowa on a visit. A vacation
is good for everyone, even an
editor.
Editor Colcord Of the Minot In
dependent must have a new car.
He wants the speed ordinance
for autos changed. The limit is
eight miles, like in ,Washburn,
but he says every driver of a car
breaks the ordinance and fifteen
miles should be the limit. Eight
miles is a pretty slow gate
alright but autos going down
main street hill in Minot at
fifteen would be rather dang r-
GUS. Fifteen would mean twenty
miles as the limit.
