election of officers. A silver offering
will be taken.
The REGISTER is very sorry, indeed,
to learn of the continued serious ILL
ness of Mrs. sadie Fletcher of Area
dia. The many friends of this most
excellent lady hope to be appraised of
an early improvement in her condi-
ton. Mrs. Fletcher will probably be
taken to st. Louis for treatment soon.
Train No. 8 arrived at Ironton last
Wednesday night at about 11:45
o'clock-six hours and fifteen minutes
making the run of 81 miles from st.
Louis. No accident, no special delay.
Just dragging, limping along, appar-
emily, no one caring whether the train
got over the road or not. 1t is miser-
able, rotten service. No wonder the
people are sore.

Bonnie Terre Correspondence Farm
tonton New: 'tRalph Blemel was
seriously hurt in an automobile ac-
cident which occurred Sunday after
noon between Bonnie Terre and Des-
lloge. Ralph in company with six 9TH
er companions had driven to Flat Riv-
er in L. G.. Williams service car and
were enroute home when in passing
another car they drove too near the
ditch and went into it with the result
that the car turned over and dumped
its passengers out. Ralph was the
only one seriously hurt. He sustained
internal injuries which seem to be
quite serious"
s. w. Andrews returned Sunday
night from a ten days hunting and
fishing trip on the Gasconade and
Usage rivers in Laclede county, about
1850 miles from st. Louis. With him
were j. ". Webb and a couple Of other
gentlemen from st. Louis. They did
not succeed in bagging a great deal of
game, but had a bushel of fun and that
was the prime object of the outing.
Sam says that the windings and
meanderings of the Gasconade are
such that you could start out in the
morning with a boat, float fifteen
miles during the day, and then find
yourself just about a quarter of a mile
from the starting point.

Judge r. L Carty last Friday norm
ing received from st. Louis twelve
head of Hereford cattle which he had
bought in st. Louis the day before.
They are last springs calves-nine
heifers and three bulls-and a finer
looking bunch the writer never saw
anywhere. Really a picture for any
stock show. Judge Carly had gone to
st. Louis with Mr.. D. E. Fletcher to
help him in buying a couple of car
loads of feeders, but when he saw the
Herefords on the market he couldn't
resist the temptation of buying a dozen
of them for breeding on his fine farm
west of town. Mr.. Fletcher brought
home with him thirty -four head of cat.
tie, which he will feed for the market,
Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Buford and son
Adelbert, arrived here from Colum-
bus, Ohio, where they moved not long
ago. They made the trip both going
and coming in their car. 1t took then
four days to drive through on theil
first trip but because of the mud they
were sdays coming back. Mrs. Bufort
and son went on to Ironton to visit
relatives and Mr.. Buford is attending
to some business matters here. HI
says he did we'll enough in his new
field but that because Of a recen
operation he is not feeling well ant
has been granted a vacation for a few
weeks. Times are very hourishinl

Buford. Crops between here anc
there are good but the industrial
plants + clogged.-Bonne Terri
