D., are here for a short visit with
his brothers, Math and Gust Berg,
and their families. Mr.. Berg says
that the crops in the vicinity of his
home have suffered very much for
want of rain, and he thinks this
country looks good to him, so much
so that he thinks of buying place
here.
Last Friday evening the peaceful
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Thos.s Weum
was taken possession, Of by a large
number of their friends and neigh
bors. The invasion was a friendly
one, however, and a complete sur
prise, it being the occasion, of the
35th anniversary of their wedding
day, which occurred at Vangen, IN
Sogn, Norway, June %, 1882. Mr..
and Mrs. Weum, who are both over
60 years old, have enjoyed very few
of this worlds pleasures, unless one
considers hard work pleasure, and
not a few of its vicisitudes, but this
has not spoiled their genial friendly
natures. Mr.. Weum is a shoemaker
by trade and the merry tap of his
pegging hammer was heard in many
a home in the old country. Mrs.
Weum's work in carding and spin
ming can hardly be surpassed even
though her hands are much crippled
with rheumatism. Mr.. and Mrs.
Weum came to America twenty years
years ago but have resided here only
during the past seven or eight years.
Six children have been born to Mr..
and Mrs. Weum, two boys who died
in infancy and four daughters, who
are: Mrs. George Hayes, Mrs. James
Wynne, Mrs. Gust Thorland and Mrs.
Syver Peterson. Those present were
as follows: Mr.. and Mrs. G.. Nelson
and daughter, Dora, Rev. and Mrs.
Chilgren, Mr.. and Mrs. Jallen and
baby, Emma, Mrs. Burd Elliott and
daughters, Leila and Lottie, Mrs. G..
Thorson and children, Bonnie, Cliff
ford, Mable and Ella, Mr.. and Mrs.
George Hayes and children, Jessie,
Marian, Donald and Arnold, Mr.. and
Mrs. James Wynne and children,
James, Gladys and Winston, Mr.. and
Mrs. Syver Peterson and children,
Clarence and Mildred, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Winger and children, Ida
May and Vida, Mr.. and Mrs. Carl
Winger, Mrs. August Thorland, Mrs.
Monard Winger and children, Con-
rad. Amiel and Eddie, Carl Elk, Mr..
and Mrs. Roy Elliott and children,
Dorothy and Gertrude, Annie Winger
and Miss Agnes McNulty. Rev.
Chilgren made few remarks and Of
fered prayer and several songs were
sung, after which a bountiful lunch
was served. The visitors departed
at a late hour wishing the happy
old couple many more such happy
returns of the day.

after the usual six weeks tuition

STOMACH UPSET?
Get at the Real Cause-Take DR..
Edwards Olive Tablets

That's what thousands of stomach
sufferers are doing now. Instead of
taking tones, or trying to patch up a
poor digestion, they are attacking the
real cause of the ailment - clogged liver
and dsordered bowels.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets arouse the
liver in a soothing, healing way. When
the liver and bowels are performing their
natural functions, away goes indigestion
and stomach troubles.
If you have a bad taste in your
mouth, tongue coated, appetite poor,
lazy, don't.care feeling. no ambition or
energy, troubled with undigested foods,
you should take Olive Tablets, the sub.
stitute for calomel.
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets are a
purely vegetable compound mixed with
olive oil. You will know them by their
olive color. They do the work without
gripping, cramps or pain.
Take one or two at bedtime for quick
relief, so you can eat what you like.

The main action in this drama trans
pires on a desert island where the
hero and heroine are shipwrecked.
AS the hero is former lover of the
woman and as she has turned him
down cold, it is evident that the
situation of the two being together
alone on the island is replete with
possibilities. Supporting Miss Clay
ton is handsome Milton Stills and
seen in the cast are a number of IA
vorites who do splendid work.

The seventh grade boys have or

take "odd jobs about town, and
give one-half Of their earnings to

service of such boys please call No.

The patriotic women of Mime
sofa, Montana, North Dakota and
South Dakota who are making sup
plies for the American Red Cross
need not have the slightest fear
about the supplies reaching thei4
destination, or the urgent need of
the supplies, according to Miss Kath-
crime McGregor, Red Cross worker
who went to Europe with the first
unit of the Canadian Red Cross. She
is now assisting in American Red
Cross work at Butte, Mont, while
visiting her sister.
without the supplies furnished
through the Red Cross it would be
perplexing, if not insoluble prob
lem to supply comfort to the men
in the military hospitals of Europe
said Miss McGregor. 1.-THE Red Cross
is so nearly perfect in it's distrib-
uting organization that misshipment
or diversion Of supplies is practic-
ally impossible"
According to Miss McGregor,
there is practically nothing needed
in the care Of the wounded soldiers
that is not available through the Red
Cross supply depots in Europe.
