1 The growth of Logan during recent
months has been phenomenal Dad
Bean has completed an attractive bun
galow, which Mr. and Mrs. Glenn
has commenced the development Of
his Garden Addition, by the erection
Of an imposing residence. Mr.. J. c.
Gard is responsible for the addition of
three new buildings, each credit to
the town, and the excellent opportun-
ities Logan affords will assuredly be
recognized by wise investors. The
scribe who suggested an ability to haul
the town, including the hall on a big
ear he hopes to own, is more anxious
concerning his reputation for face
tiousness than truthfulness. Brother,
Logan is the town that smothered
Sawyer, and is pushing Minot west.
Burlington and Tasker should bear in
mind that it is the privilege of a flea
to annoy an elephant.
The members of the Samaritan Aid
were the guests Of Mrs. Rob Waldref
on Thursday at her picturesque home
which nestles midst the stately trees
which fringe the Mouse river just east
of Logan. The charm and beauty of a
spot, where art and nature blend so
happily, was enjoyed by many and
work, both useful and ornamental, be-
came a pleasure. A delicious lunch
con daintily served brought to close
a delightful visit.
The Latter Day Saints Aid will be
entertained on Thursday next by Mrs.
Nulph at Logan hall.
Brady & Myers, our local merchants,
are displaying new sign and Won
drous stock Of goods. F. E. Ross across
the street also announces through the
same medium that he is here to do
real business, and he does as he says
in most things. Giles, at the Cosy
Cafe has an attractive sign and stock,
and the First State bank will soon
have a volume of business which will
justify the cashier subscribing to the
most widely read paper in the state.
The Hotel Metropole is~ the mecca
of the hungry and the weary and the
accommodation is sorely taxed most
days.
Miss Anna Whitman, who will short
ly prove up valuable claim in Mon
tana, is the guest of Mrs. H. C. Kuck
enbecker.
Mrs. J. Boylan has enjoyed an ex-
tended visit with Mrs. J. Howard of
Forest Boulevard She will leave on
Thursday for Maple Hill Farm where
she will spend few weeks with Mrs.
Frank Teets.
Elmer Cook, who has travelled over
considerable territory in search for a
location more promising than Logan,
returned like the prodigal son last
weekend.
The Egan residence on University
avenue has been entirely redecorated
and now presents a pleasing appear
ance. The long lean one should devei-
op sufficient energy to paint his cot
tage and give to that end of town the
credit it deserves
Mr.. H. G. Kuchenbecker recently ac-
quired the Fintleman quarter east of
town and we understand the adjoining
quarter has also changed hands at a
fancy figure.
Logan needs an organization, COM
prising those who recognize that they
owe duty to the community in which
they live and wax rich as we'll as to
themselves. The necessity is empha-
sized on each and every occasion when
enterprise would reach out to proffer
this, that or the other form of enter
tainment, or attempt some local i'm
provement. The task of collecting
sufficient to defray expenses of per
forming the preliminary work devolves
upon one or two, the benefit resulting
is enjoyed by all. Without the active
cooperation of each and every resi-
dent little can be accomplished. The
leading financial institution which
graces Main street could and should
take the lead in local enterprises which
affords our town publicity, but they
are painfully backward in coming for
ward, and it behooves those who have
the best interests Of Logan at heart
to appreciate that in these days self
