Fury Wants a Name

j. E. Fury, the enterprising young
man who owns the confectionery store
in the Mullen block on Sixth street,
wants an appropriate name for his
place of business. He has decided to
ask the women of Morris and vicinity
for suggestions for which he offers a
handsome reward.
When Mr.. Fury opened the place
three weeks ago the matter of suit
able name was deferred. He has a
very neat and attractive store and his
friends think it is appropriate that he
has left the matter of a suitable
name to the ladies. In his ad-
vertising on another page of the Tri-
bune today he sets forth his ideas re-
garding name selection and says he
will give the party whose suggestion
is accepted a handsome box of candy
valued at five dollars. The contest is
open free of all charge to any lady
who may wish to inter-, and there are
no age limitations. Suggestions may
be mailed to Mr.. Fury or left at the
store.

my arms, pinched myself, rubbed my
eyes. The group remained In my vi

yards from the shore, then stopped and
slowly settled down, it seemed, into
the water-either this or they faded

This was the end Of my dream, hal

that I went back to my hotel. Before
doing so | noted the locality that I

flowed from lake or swamp short
distance from the beach.

breakfast started to so over my walk

CITY NEWS ITEMS

Miss Katie Deutsch has resigned
her position a saleslady at the Lime
Bakery and left Tuesday evening for
Rutland, N. D., to spend few days
with relatives and friends.
Herbert Terrell left Tuesday morn
ing for Appleton where he will spend
part of week before going to Min
neapolis to enjoy a short vacation
with his brother who is student at
a business college.
The fair management feel highly
pleased with the prospects for the
three big days next week. Entries
are coming in for the races and con-
tests and what appeared to be a
quiet program now looms up as one of
the strongest amusement features of
all the successful fairs held in Ste
vens county. A mule race, combin-
alton horse race, auto and motor
cycle races are stirring the home
sports.
Swedish Lutherans will hold SER
vices at their church in this city
next Sunday evening beginning at
eight o'clock when Rev. C. A. Lin
dahl, of Benson, will be here to preach
the sermon. Rev. Lindahl will preach
in the English language. A general
invitation has been issued to all re-
CARELESS of church affiliations and it
is hoped that many will take advant-
age of the opportunity to hear Rev.
Lindahl speak.
The many Morris friends of F. H.
Swearingen, former accountant at the
Morris University farm school, will
be pleased to learn that Mr.. Swearin-
gen is making his home at St. Paul
where he has a position as clerk at
the fashionable St. Paul hotel. On
a recent visit to the cities Mr.. N.
Vinje was agreeably surprised when
he walked up to the desk to register
to be greeted by Mr.. Swearingen who
inquired after matters in general at
Morris.
There is considerable talk among
the young men about the city about
organizing a glee club. There are
any number of young men possessed
of good voices which could be trained
to good advantage. Prof. Schweik-
hart at the agricultural school and
Arthur Henriksen, salesman at the
Vinje clothing store, are very much
interested in the proposition and would
be glad to meet those who favor such
a move. 81 think it would be a good
thing and an organization of fifteen
to twenty members is what we have
