friends and looking after business
matters. Mr.. Loban has sold his farm

r. C. B~urlingame and Clifford James
of the Connolly Grocery spent Tues
day in the harvesting field helping on
the farm Of one of the customers OF
the store who was short of help. Mrs.
Alice Girman, the cashier and book
keeper at the store, has been going

The men of Brookingg did not think
it was patriotic to see Harry Ken
nard lose because he had to go to
wal in a hurry. Thirty acres Of grain
were in need of stacking Tuesday az
%ternoon, SO the Home Guards sent out
a detachment late in the afternoon
and did part of the work, and a dele
cation of business men, led by c. =.
Poole, went u at the same time and
they all completed the job. After this
job they helped P. o. Kennard awhile,
and some of them went to other
places and put in some time.
James Natesta has a letter from his
son, MILFORD, in which he states that
he is about to leave for Camp Mills,
Long Island. He also says that his
Buick roadster, which he turned over
to the military police at Camp Kear-
ney for them to deliver to a garage
in San Diego, has been recovered and
is now in safe hands. 1t seems that
the soldier to whom he entrusted the
car got peculiar ideas of his duty and
used the cal for several weeks and
also tried to sell it. AS soOn as VIII
ford got out of. quarantine camp he
started to look for his car and found
the soldier still using it as if it was
his own. The car is now where it
should be, and SO is the soldier. He
is waiting court martial for his
strange conception of trusteeship.
