Mr.. and Mrs. ]. M. Streeter re-
ceived word from their Erve, who

We are glad to report that
Chas. Wheeler was able to be up
on his feet Monday for the first
time since he broke the bone i'll
his hip joint several weeks ago.
He is making splendid progress
and we hope soon to see him out
again and as good as new.
Dick Champion left last Friday
for harrington, Wyoming, where
he has another steam shovel job
with ditch contractor.
Erve Strccter sent his parents
a panoramic picture of his COM
pany, 1O4th Company, 8th Regi-
ment, U. S. Marines, and it would
be hard to find harder bunch
of men than they appear to be.
The Germans will know that they
have force to combat when they
come face to face with our boys.
They have been trained to love
liberty and will fight to maintain
it, not only for themselves but for
all humanity when given the OPP
portunity.
A letter from our old friend
and townsman, DIR. E. p. Greene,
directs US to change his address
of the Enterprise from North
Yakima, Washington, to White
wood Court, Linnton, Oregon.
Chas. H. Easley, Of the Grange
Mutual Fire Insurance company,
informs US that the total fire and
lightning losses this year have
amounted to date to $4,000. The
company, has written $4,000, 900
of risks in 1917, and by reason OF
the difference in premium charged
as compared with the old line
companies, the company has
saved the policy holders $4,000
on this years business alone. The
company is now sending out a
call to cover the loss of Thomas
P. Jackson of Kiowa Grange 2O6,
near Eads, Colo, and of smaller
losses amounting to about $500
and expenses. The members
are. required to pay one mill on
ordinary onc-halt Of one per cent
risks, and two mills on one per
cent risks, etc, according to the
liability. Owing to the splendid
record being made by the COM
pany's managers and the excep
tionally great advantages to the
farmers in the saving of prem
iums, it would seem that this cali
would be met most chccrfully and
promptly.
