on the war. Ii is written by Arthur
Guy Empey, genuine "Yank' who
was not too proud to fight and
who has been serving for year and

Following are some selections:

fashionably dressed girl walking be

theirs and hoped he was doing nice.

Monday, April %, was the we'd

day evening their friends and
neighbors decided 10 get even
with them, and they were COM
pletcly surprised when about
sixty arrived and took possession
of the house. The evening was
spent in visiting, music and
games until midnight, when a
bountiful supper was served by
Mrs. Charles Haiglrt and sisters.
At 4 O'Clock the party broke tip

In Regard to Drainage Of the
Lands Along the Little Sioux
and Its Tributaries.


Whereas, the repeated over
flows of the lowlands oe Wood
bury, Monona and Harrison.coun-
ties has proven that a more aue-
Iquate outlet is necessary, and
Whereas, the construction of
said outlet would promote the
health wealth and welfare Of the
lpeople of said counties. and
Whereas, the construction of
said outlet would prepare said
lowlands, in suitable condition,
for homes of the American farm
Ter, and would make their value
from 5000 TO $500 per acre, and
Whereas, the welfare of our
|natlon as we'll as that of the
world demands the maximum
production of farm products,
Therefore, he ii resolved, by
| the owners of said real estate ly-
| ling adjacent, or among the low
lands, of the Little Sioux and its
tributaries; that said outlet be
CONSTRUCTED i'm the following
manner. and paid for in the fol-
lowing method:
First: The Woodbury., Mon
iona and Harrison ditch to be re-
llicved of enough water now
Iditched into it, to allow il at all
times to be adequate for a tile
drain outlet.
Second: The balance of the
water to be confined in large
outlet following the general
lconrse of the Little Sioux river,
from a point near the town of
Ikennrbec, to its mouth. Said
IOutlet to be i25 feet wide and 25
fleet deep at the upper end, and
ll15 feet wide and 80 feet deep
from the mouth of the Maple
lriver to the mouth of the Little
Sioux. The dirt excavated in the
construction of said ditch to be
fused i'm the construction of a.
ldike on each side of said outlet,
(which are to he four feet high at
1.-THE lowest point, and removed
from the bank of said outlet at
least i65 feet, thus forming a
waterway when at flood height,
lof 455 feet at the upper end and
lof sos feet at the mouth. The
jmachinpry hest adantad IN thn
reconstruction of said outlet would
lno doubt be the hydraulic pump
ling plant.
1 Third: The management of
the construction ofssaid work to
lie under the Control 6ffihe foint
lboards of Woodbury., Monona and
| Harrison counties.
| Fourth: The cost of said out
let to be paid for by tax to be
laid on all drainage lands in the
three counties that contribute
water TO the outlet.
/ Fifth: The tax to be levied
|according to the benefits to each
forty of land derived from said
|outlet.
1 All persons Interested in the
drainage of said lands are inyit-
led TO attend meeting to be held

If he is a Frcnchman. Here is the
newest statement of the philos-

OF two things one is certain:
Either you're mobilized or you're
not modified.
If you're not modified there's
no need to worry: if you're on the
front, of two things one is GER

If you're behind the lines there

certain: Either you're resting in

danger.
II you're resting in a safe place
there, is not need to worry: if
you're exposed to danger, of two
things one is certain: Either
you're wounded or you're not
wounded.
If you're not wounded there is
no need. to worry; if you are
wounded, of two things one is

seriously or you're wounded
slightly.
! If you're wounded slightly,
there is no need to worry: if

If YOU recover there is no need
to worry: if you die you can't
