Cheer Up, the Sun
VIII SHINE Agar,

One cloudy day has followed another,
and the sun has shone so little late
ly, that some discouraged folks begin
to question not only whether the sun
will ever shine again, but even to doubt
the very existence of sun. But they
should cheer up. The sun will shine
again, soon, and cherries will soon be
ripe.
Some statistician, probably in the
weather department of the federal gov
eminent, has figured out just how
many hours, on an average, the sun
shines each year in this climate.
Covering period of years the average
is that for all the time from sunrise
to sunset. when the sun could shine,
it does shine SO per cent Of that time.
Altho it probably would not work
out this way, because it was rot figures
by days. yet it is very possible that
on the average the sun shines six days
out of every ten, and the average is
much larger than that in the summer
months. for the average is for the
whole year and includes the many
short dark winter days. 50 il is prob
able that bunch of the dark days
have just got crowded together at this
time and are being served up all at
once by the weather man.

M. 4 ST. /. TRAIN CHANGES.
New Schedule and Change Of Runs and
Crews Effective June 6.

Effective Sunday. June 6. radical
changes will take place in the crews
and running time of trains and 10,
locals, on the Minneapolis & st. Louis
railway according to instruction issued
to conductors and brakemen and soon
to be made public by the issuance of a
new time card.
The most important change. as far
as this city is concerned will be in
the time of the south bound train in
the morning and the north-bound in
the evening. The south-bound. No. >.
which has been leaving Mason City
daily except Sunday at $50 a. m. will
leave an hour later or about I o'clock,
getting here about 10 instead of 500,
as at present. In the afternoon No. TO-
which has been arriving here at ., Will
arrive about $40, leaving about $50.
The exact schedule time has not yet
been announced. The north bound
train in the morning will continue to
leave here at the same time, s:15 while
the south bound in the evening will
also leave as before at $50
Changes in the runs of train crews
also take effect at the same time as
changes in the schedule. The crews
which have been living Marshall
town as the end or beginning of their
runs will now have TO change their
residences, as the runs will be straight
thru from Mason City to Oskaloosa
and from Oskaloosa south to Peoria.
This will necessitate three crews NOV
ing. The conductors who will be at
fected by this change are ii. A. Colt.
d. Young and w. c. Asan. The
brakemen who willie be similarly af-
fected are J. w. Allen. David Owens
and w. D. Wyckhoff. Colt and Allen
and Agan and Wyckhoff will run be-
tween Oskaloosa and Peoria, while
Young and Owens will run straight
thru from Mason City to Oskaloosa.
This arrangement is based on the sup
position that the same crews will run
together as they have been doing.
1t has also been announced that on
the same date, June 6, the local trains
running between Oskaloosa and Elrick
Junction will be discontinued indefi-
nitely These trains were numbered
105 and 106, respectively.

FRIENDSHIP LINKS.
Newest Thing in Modest Jewelry-ln-
extensive But to Be Priced.

The latest thing in jewelry novelties
is the friendship link. One link from a
close friend to another strung on a
elvet ribbon and engraved starts the
bracelet. AS friendships grow other
links are added until in time the brace
let is complete. AS the years go by
and friends are scattered about the
world esta blished in homes far apart
these friendship links become the most
priced keepsakes of youth. They are
inexpensive and beautiful in their art
and in their sentiment. Hellberg.
