John Reid of Beaulieu was in our
village the last of the week attending
to his duties as vice-president of the
Olga bank.
Mrs. Noel Robillard, Mrs. Thos.
Cregan and several others have suffer-
ed from la grippe during the part of
the past week, but are now we'll on
the road to recovery.
The last news from M. A. Plante
tells US that he is not as we'll as he
might be, but it may be but a tempo
rary change and we hope it will result
in nothing more than a slight delay in
his return.
Cashier Thos. Cregan was at Lang
don last Tuesday on business and AL
fred Beauchamp drove him up with
his new team of drivers. By the way
Fred has something in that line that
puts the auto in the shade.
We are informed that Joseph Brus-
seau has returned from Rochester to
his home at Hoople. His treatment
there was not as beneficial as we could
wish, although he is satisfied that the
doctors did all that could be done for
him.
Mr.. and Mrs. P. Charbonneau of
Davidson, Sask., are here visiting
with friends and relatives; they intend
to stay about three weeks. MIR.
Charbonneau LETT here some years ago
and is now the owner of a fine farm
in the Canadian Northwest.
Many friends here deeply regret to
hear Of the death of Sam Gunderson,
who died at his home Saturday, Feb.
9th, and was buried at the Lutheran
church south of Olga last Wednesday,
the 3rd inst. Mr.. Gunderson had been
in poor health for several year past
and had tried many doctors, but did
not seem to get any relief and we un-
derstand that death was due to cancer
of the stomach. Mr.. Gunderson was
one of the old settlers of Cavalier
county and a we'll to do farmer OF
North Beaulieu. He leaves a wife anc
several children to mourn his loss anc
these bereaved ones have the sincere
sympathy Of a host of friends.
James Cregan returned from Gull
Lake, Sask., where he spent several
weeks visiting his brother, Will, anc
many other friends he has in that part
OF Canada. While there, ne met ou,
old time friend, Geo. D%unnigan, whom
he reports as having general sunervi.

ton in chat neighborlood and the fact
that they are all looking SO we'll anc
getting q good share Of this worlds
goods shows he is still the same ole
George, always thorough in anything
he undertakes. Mr.. Cregan also gave
US the following news Of many of our
old time friends. Ed. Dyer, who lived
in South Olga for many years, is now
the oWner of q fine half-section of
land and is also running a profitable
dray business in Gull Lake. John
Rushford has one of the best hotel
businesses in the Northwest. Joe
He'll, Mike BOSNIAN and John Ohleiser
are other former Cavalier county resi-
dents he met while there, also Jack
O'Connor and Valentine Voll visited
at the home of his brother and they
had a great evening talking over old
times. Mr.. Cregan says that he saw
some of the finest farms, most of
them half-sections and all plowed and
narrowed ready for the drill this
spring; that there is plenty of moist
ure in the ground and that the outlook
is very bright for a bumper crop this
year. He says his brother has a half
section of land already for crop that
is equal to the best in the country.
We sincerely wish that their prospects
for a bumper crop will become a real
ity in the fall and that a good price
will give them the prosperity SC
heartily wished them by their Cava-
lier county friends.
