Sleepy Eye Herald Dispatch: A.
w. Spehr arrived Saturday afternoon
from st. Cloud to spend Sunday with
his wife and son, Peter and assist
them in packing up their household
goods prior to moving to the, above
named place, where the family will
make their future home. He in
formed The Herald Dispatch that he
had decided to settle down perma-
nently at st. Cloud, where he is in
terested and holds a responsible po-
sition in a flour mill About year
ago the Spehr family moved to
Sleepy Eye for the second time and
Mr. Spehr again entered the local
mill, which at time previous he had
been superintendent of, but this time
as general superintendent of the
United Flour Mills company. He held
that position until last winter when
the above company was forced to the
wall on account of not being able to
meet commercial obligations and
their mills as a result were shut
down., thus automatically throwing
Mr.. Spehr out of employment. A few
days later however he went to st
Cloud to take charge of the manufac-
turing department of the Great
Northern Mills at that place. Since
then he has secured a tenth interest
in the mill and is also general super
intendent The furniture has been
packed up ready for shipment and
Mrs. Spehr and Peter will leave as
soon as school is out. The many
friends of both Mr.. and Mrs. Spehl
will deeply regret their leaving
Sleepy Eye and we hope for their
success and contentment at their new
home. "The Best of All" is the brand
of flour that Mr.. Spehr is now making
at st. Cloud.
