| The city council is planning on
putting hitching racks on the north
side of the park to accommodate the
farmers. If there is not enough
hitching room available, racks will be
placed in other parts of town near
the business section that will answer
all purposes.
Mrs. c. j. Graf and daughter Kath-
crime of Villisca, were in the city the
fore part of the week visiting the
lady's sister. Mrs. DR.. Halloran. In

| II. A. Christensen, wife and son
Eugene, expect to leave tomorrow or
Saturday for their new home in San
Francisco, Calf. They have been
residents of Audubon a long time and
Mr.. Christensen has been identified
in business circles for many years,
but he finds that the climate on the
coast is better for the health of the
family. consequently, they have de-
cided to make the change. The best
wishes of their Audubon friends will
follow them to their new home.
