bent on qualifying for the peoples
choice for since his migration to the
Heavenly sphere he has theoretically
dug into every political dung heap
real or imaginary. But that classic
trinity Of superiority will realize the
definition of boomerang ere long. Lo-
gan lost little.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Gard entertain
ed the Good Samaritan club on Thurs
day, many members assembling. The
afternoon was spent industriously and
the work accomplished was both useful
and ornamental. A dainty luncheon
was served.
| J. G. Gard & Son received carload
of fall merchandise during the week.
Those who can appreciate local enter
prise should visit this establishment
and we feel confident that our neigh
bors' claim that Logan is not the prin-
cipal market centre for this territory
will be proved erroneous. There's q
reason.
Mrs. Fremont Cook has been sorely
troubled with an attack of quinsey
during the week, but we are glad to
learn she is now on the road to re-
covery.
We are glad to announce that Mrs.
! A. C. Nedrud, who was the victim Of a
painful accident, is making rapid
strides to complete convalescence. Miss
Solberg, in whose care she is, has
every reason to feel proud Of the
progress shown by her popular pa
tient.
Gilbert Nedrud, who has been look
ing after his farming interests in
Montana, returned to assist in the
harvesting of the magnificent crop
he valley farm has produced. Gilbert,
through a slight scratch, narrowly es-
capped an attack of blood poisoning.
The Hotel Metropole is the resort of
many these days and we begin to won
der how Logan managed without
first class establishment of this kind.
Host Bean and his better half's eff
forts command success.
A band Of Sawyer Irregulars visited
our town on Monday en- route to the
Heavenly sphere. The boys seemed
their cheerfulness was good to be-
hold.
The Cozy Cafe on Main St. is the
rendezvous Of the aristocracy. Every
thing that appeals in the way of fruit,
confectionery, and delicacies generally
is here in profusion and the proprietor,
Giles, is an obliging cuss always.
Harvesting is general and there is
every prospect that local crops will
justify all the extravagant claims your
scribe has persistently presented. Lo-
gan soil contains little coal but is
fertile to degree.
The Farmers Elevator has been con-
siderably enlarged and generally mod
ernized, and friend Kuchenbecker is
in training for real hard work, figur-
ing to devote 20 hours daily to at
tending to the farmers needs. Mr..
Howard is to be his energetic under
study.
There are some lots on the outskirts
of our town which could be improved
by the removal of a crop Of weeds. Y
. We received an inquiry recently re-
questing who the officers Of the Soc
ialist local might be. As the small
boy replied, "There amt none" It.

The local Grange held "a successful
meeting on Tuesday evening. On Sat
urday, Aug. 22nd, at p. M, they will
again assemble for the initiation of
new members. Get into line.
Mr.. Light, our expert blacksmith, is
on duty at all hours six days in the
week, and by good work has obtained
the patronage of the surrounding
country. 81

community are for an early and COM

The Bismarck Bantam on Tuesday,
being many minutes behind schedule
time, would have passed Logan on the
500 at 40-mile clip. But there were
several of the elite awaiting her arriv-.
al and back she was forced to come.
Our town, as consequence, was ads
vertised to al travelling in manner
telling. y
Ezra Nulph is improving his town
residence considerably, making many
alterations, inside and out, which will
tend to added beauty and comfort.
Gordon Nulph has been understudy
to We village blacksmith during the
past week and is another Loganite

Alfred Stredwick's new residence is
now completed and credit both to ALT
and the vicinity. From the roadway
one can observe the wondrous devel-
opment of the orchard and we noticed
an apple tree, the branches of which
were literally weighed down by an
abundance of we'll formed fruit. North
Dakota well grows most things and
Logan soil grows anything.
Fred Lawrence with his grading
outfit completed considerable work on
the East Hill which should facilitate
the marketing of grain at our centre.
Considerable money has already been
spent on this road and it is now being
put into shape consistent with the
heavy traffic the growth Of Logan has
occasioned. B
