$50 LOST MONEY
RECOVERED THRU
SHEAF WANT AID
Mrs. o. NJ. HolsOn Returns Lost $50.
To Sheaf Office in Answer to
Want Ad.

LOST:-Between Ovsaks barn and
the First National Bank $4,000,
Wednesday. Finder please leave at
the Sheaf office and receive reward.
The above want ad appeared in
last weeks issue Of the Sheaf and
was read Thursday by Mrs. O. M.
Holson Of this city, who found the
money. She Immediately notified the
Sheaf that she had found the fifty
dollars on Wednesday,. The Sheaf
in turn advised Otto Olson, Of Route
4, who had lost the roll of bills.
AS reward for her honesty and to
show his appreciation, Mr.. Olson pre-
sented Mrs. Holson with a ten dollar
bill and a years subscription to the
Sheaf. ..-
Mr.. Olson states, that he is firmly
convinced by this incident, that it
pays to advertise in the Sheaf want
columns.
Another thing commendable in this
connection is the honesty Of Mrs.
Holson, who could have made use of
the money for her own needs, but
would not do so, because it would
have been wrong and not in accor-
dance with Christian principles of
justice and integrity.

Friday evening, when the Ada and
Warren mines clashed in battle royal,
which resulted in a score of to 0

Big Jack Brown was on the mound
for the visitors and succeeded in
holding the Warren hitters down
pretty well, the only long drives be-
Warren and had the Ada club guess
ing Only three singles were taken
from him. Wingfeld backed Chuck
splendidly, while Whiting at first
kept tab of every man as they reach
ed the sack. The whole Warren
team played errorless ball and gave
Russell Al support.
The only runs of the contest were
made in the third, when Russell sin
gled, and was brot in by Tillotson's

Ada, and Warren Tussel.

Warren met Ada on the Ada dia-
mond Sunday afternoon in a fast
battle which resulted in tie score
Of 4 to 1 in the seventh. The game
was. discontinued at this point, due
to the unfairness Of the Ada umpires.
Warren had the best Of the engage
ment, but found it no easy task to
win a ball game, when the umpire
deliberately rendered decision after
decision against them and in the IA
vor Of the Ada nine. Manager Nat
wick called the boys from the field in
the seventh and told the Ada manage
ment, that the game would not be
continued unless Warren would be
given another umpire: Ada would
not do this as they preferred to steal
the game in order to gain revenge

here, Friday evening. According to
the large number Of fans from the
towns surrounding Ada, present al

VIKING FARMERS CLUB

The following program was rem

Song, Club boys.
Business meeting.
The subject of the debate was:
'Resolved that a Ford is of more
benefit to the farmer than Bath
tub" John Batten and Randolp',
Cleveland debated on the affirmative
side and Mr.. Scott and Conrad Stew
ems debated on the negative side.
Mrs. Oscar Hanson, Miss Sweat and
Mr.. Sacket acted as judges. The de-
bate proved very Humorous. In spite
iof the fact that Cleanliness is next
Ito Gadliness'' the affirmative side
won. But part of the audience could
not help but feel convinced that it
would be far easier for the farmer to
get along without Ford than with
out a bath.
Karl Sahlberg spoke on the "True
Spirit of Cooperation" in the Scan
dinavian language. He touched on
the element of selfishness (which
seems to be prevailing. He empha-
sized the fact that wherever selfish
ness prevails true cooperation can
never exist. While farming is one Of
the noblest as well as the most IL
dependent occupation he said that
the farmer should not become so ego
istical and so dominated by the spirit
Of selfshness that he can not see
that other occupations have right
to exist as well as his own. He
claimed that the city is as essential
to the farmer as the farmer is to the
city. We certainly agree with Mr.
Sahlberg that whenever a man lives
moves and has his being in the per.
sonal pronoun I, me, mine, ilresrec-
tive of what his occupation may be
there never can be true cooperation
Mr.. Sahlberg is one Of our pioneer
farmers and we admire The spirit
with which he enters into the Farm
ers' Club work in spite Of the fac
that he is handicapped By not being
able to speak the English language.
John Batten also spoke on Geo
operation. Mr.. Batten is the presi
, dent of the New Solum Farmers
s Club and a very enthusiastic work
, er along that line. We were yer!
glad to have him with US for tn
, evening. Mr.. Batten emphasized tn
fact that the farmers are the weak
est of any organization for the sim
pie reason that there is not strong
enough cooperation. He wanted t,
bring the farmers attention to tn
!; fact that if they would only cooper
: ate they could demand their ow1
price for their products in place 0
letting other organizations set tn

Just purchased the B. E. Lane farm,
south east of Warren, consisting Of

farm was formerly known as the

days by the Corrigans, Of Cleveland,
