DISGRACEFUL OFFENSE
BRINGS DISAPPROVAL

Much comment has been expressed
by the citizens of Audubon about the
painting of certain signs on a certain
building in a certain city. 1t has
aroused the ire of many men and they
have upon several occasions express
ed their opinions. To deliberately and
maliciously paint signs upon another
mans building, is a direct violation
of the law. 1t defaces and mars the
building and the owner would be
justified in pushing the culprits to
the utmost penalty provided by law
We are not attempting to defend
any victim upon whom such accusa-
tions may fall, but the manner in
which they were preferred, has re-
ceived much dissapproval in the eyes
of the public. Perhaps the party or
or parties responsible for the painting
thought they were performing a pa
triotic duty in patriotic spirit, but
it is sadly lacking in these much
desirable elements.

tive in his assault upon the southwest
ern part of Audubon county the past
week and has succeeded In capturing
several homes. making life prisoners
of some of their occupants. His
assault could not be replused, the on
slaught was unchecked. His artill-
cry fire Of arrows of love, pierced the
Notifications surrounding the hearts
of some of the young people and they
surrendered Internationally and took
the oath to lever honor. love and
obey" The following are the COM
manders of the heart forts that were

STORE NOW OPEN

The Henriksen Department Store
opened its doors to the public yester-
day and all day long their friends
and old customers of the store, took
occasion to pay the young men a
visit. Cigars were dispensed to the
men and good word was spoken
for the new proprietors and with it
came the universal wish that they
succeed in their new venture. The
young men who own and operate the
store are well known to everyone in
the community and no one doubts
but that they will give the public
good service and most cordial and
courteous treatment.

FROST THIS MORNING

The first frost of the season was
noticeable early this morning. The
weather has been disagreeable for
several days. We have had but little
rain and the corn has been benefited
by 1t while the pastures have suf-
fered. The roofs were white with
frost as late as seven o'clock this
morning, II Ia not thought that the
frost has done any damage, not even
to the late maturing corn.

One nice feature of the proposed
constitutional amendment, will be
the provision for law enforcement
The proposed amendment provides
that 1.-The general assembly shall by
law prescribe regulations for the en-
forcement of the prohibition herein
contained. This will help do away
with some of the leagues that have
been visiting many of the towns of
the state raising funds by voluntary
contribution for the prosecution of
liquor law violators. AS soon as this
becomes a part of the constitution.
then the state officers will see that
the law Is enforced. and 1t will not
be necessary to keep up these en-
forcement leagues.

MAKES A
CHANGE IN PASTOy.S

Word reached Audubon Monday
that the conference in session at Ind
ianola last week had completed its
labors and that Rev. Gidden would
not return to this charge. The news
came as a. great surprise. The Of
fical board of the Methodist church
and unanimously voted for Rev. Gid
dens return and everyone confident
~ expected that he would be back.
However there were many changes
IN all OF the districts comprising the
Des Moines Conference and in order
to meet the demands, Rev. Giddens
was transferred from the Atlantic
district to the Des Moines district and
will be located at Winterset. With
the transfer comes raise in salary
and Winterset will be a station in
stead of circuit Audubon people
generally regret that the change was
made, but gladly consent to it if the
church and the district are to be bet
ter served. Nt
Rev. c. w. Proctor, of Gravity, has
been sent to Audubon. He is report
ed to be splendid pastor and will no
doubt have the united support of the
members of this congregation. The
exchange of pulpits will not be made
until next week. The best wishes
of host of friends will follow Mr..
Giddens and his excellent family to
their new home.
Our readers will be interested in
learning of the other appointments
which were made. Those of local in
