Not Same Every Year.
The funny thing about this kind of
lion-huntinE, Vawter says, is that they
are not the same kind of lions frorn
one season to another. Some seasons
ago, the 'insurEcnt" was the biggest
lion of the lot. Now.wcll, somehow,
they're not doing it this season.
What's the big 1916 hit in the chau-
tauqua show?
"Thc man with an idea" flashed
Vawter.
1t may be about city building
that's very popular topic, he says
or it may be on business building, or
the country church, or this, that or
the other thing, but the idea must be
real and live and fresh to "get across" "
No Glamour Wanted.
The chautauqua game is funny

gained the title of leader in this great

Mrs. S. A. Mikalson visited at the
Capital City this week, going up on
Tuesday.
Ed. Temple, of the Farmers State
Bank, spent last night with his par
ents at Temvik.
Mr.. and Mrs. G. N. Crawford, who
have been visiting here the past month
with their son, +. F., and family, de-
parted this morning for their home at
Lisbon, Ohio. F. F. took them as far
as Bismarck by auto.
L. w. Berkholz went to Bismarck
last Saturday to give some of his blood
to Thos. Kelly. The transfer of pint
of blood-was successfully made which
makes the sixth blood infusion that has
been made. Mr.. Kelly's condition re-
mains about the same.
Hazelton's first village election un-
der the Incorporated government will
be held on Saturday, September 9th,
according to the decision reached by
the board Of election inspectors in
charge of the affair, at meeting held
Monday of this week.
1t seems the country halls are TAX
ing the shine off the town places when
it comes to dancing. There are two
of these country halls close to Hazel
ton-Gates' on the west and Brogden's
on the east, both of which regularly
give dances, draw good crowds and
meet with good success.
Quite number of threshing rigs in
this vicinity started up the latter part
of last week but not enough grain was
threshed out to tell much about the
quality or the yield per acre. What
has been threshed seems to be of Il
very poor quality, grading from No.
to rejected and averages up in the
neighborhood Of five bushels per acre.
Next Sunday at Wishek will be held
the dedication Of the first and only He
brew synagogue in this section Of the
state, and it promises to be one of the
greatest celebrations ever held in the
Slope country. All churches of Wi
shek will be closed and the populace
generally, irrespective of nationality
or religious belief, will take part.
Many 4Hazelton folks are planning to
attend.
F.. A. Bier and family returned home
Thursday of last week after spending
the summer at Lake Crystal, MINI.
Mr.. Bier expected to come to desc
late crop as he had heard all along the
line of how the crops had been entire
ly wiped out with rust. About the
first thing he did upon arriving was to
go out into his field of shocks and look
over his grain. He was exceedingly
relieved in mind and greatly encour-
aged over the outlook when he found
his macaroni wheat would make or
10 bushels per acre Of about No.
wheat. His corn and feed grains are
good and he is not worrying now over
hard winter.
Quite stir and no little excitement
was created here the first of the week
on the building Of an addition to the
north end of the N. P. depot, the
question being whether or not this ad-
dition would bring the depot out into
the street and whether or not the
street was public highway over the
railroad right-of-way. However, H. A
