TO HOME AND FRIENDS

Jens G. Hansen was the happiest
party at the Rock Island depot Sat

Der 1917 and was in training in the

cate anything.
They both were mustered out of
service at Camp Dodge last week and

FORMER AUDUBON MAN
is A POPULAR SPEAKER

H. G. Sampson, an Audubon young
man who has gone out into the world
and made good has of late become
one of the popular public speakers OF
the state. The Van Meter Report
er of last week contained the fol-
lowing concerning Mr.. Sampson:
A large audience gathered at the
M. E. church Sunday morning to
hear Attorney Henry E. Sampson OF
Des Moines tell How to Make the
Church Serve the Community and
World at Large
They heard all of that! Mr..
Sampson gave two splendid talks
one at 1900 o'clock and one after
the basket dinner. Mr.. Sampson is
forceful, logical, witty and con-
vincing speaker-and IL this writer
ever has to be defended by an attor-
ney during his short but eventful
sojourn here, he is going to have Mr.
Sampson defend him-and never
worry a minute after he's engaged
That man could not only make the
average jury believe the moon was
made of green cheese-but have
them all licking their chops while
they waited for him to cut 1t up and
divide II.

ATTRACTION FOR AUDUBON

The Hon. George A. Carlson, for
mer governor of Colorado, who is to
lecture at our Chautauqua on 1.-THE
Price of Progress, is a product of
our own middle west He was born
on farm in Buena Vista county, Ia.
His people were Swedish immigrants
who came to this country penniless
and friendless In search of oppor-
tnnities denied them in the old
country.
During the war Governor Carlson
did much to arouse the patriotism of
Americans of foreign parentage.
particularly the Scandinavian folks.
He knew how to appeal to them be-
cause he knew the conditions which
brought them here and the oppor-
tunities this country had given them.
He is said to be a speaker of power
and a fighter of the ole Hanson,
Teddy Roosevelt type.
Carlson was the youngest govern
or ever elected by the people of Col
orado. His nomination by the re-
publican party and his subsequent
election followed a splendid career
as district attorney. When he had
been in this office but twenty-three
days he had caused thirty-eight pub
lie officials to plead guilty to the
charge of misappropriating public
funds.
Carlson bucked the booze inter-
ests in Colorado politics and is the
man who put Colorado dry.

PREACHERS IN A ROW
WITH THE SOLDIERS

There's a nice little row on at
Morris. ILL.,. between the clergymen
and what Is declared to be a majority
of the citizens, and all because Attor-
ney Frank L. Flood. late sergeant in
"Relly's Bucks" was rather frank in
expressing his opinions in his letters
from overseas.
January 4th Sergeant Flood wrote
in letter. which later was published
in the Morris newspaper, criticism
of the charges American soldiers
were drinking and misbehaving over
seas. He denounced the "reformers
and prohibitionaists who lied about
soldiers"
Among other things he wrote:
"At any rate, I am unalterablv op-
posed to the agitators. moralists,
and professional prohibitionists. As
for their friendship don't need II
AS could have died on the battle
field of France without them, so can
live without them"
So few DAYS ago when Sergeant
Flood was scheduled to speak at the
Morris Commercial club. clergymen
Of The city. headed by the Rev. Almer
Penneweli. pastor of the Methodist
church, sent letter to the chairman
of the meeting declaring IL the SER
geant were permitted TO speak Meth
err they nor their representatives
would attend.

and friends are declared to he back

MANY FARM SALES AT
GREATLY INCREASED PRICES

Audubon county farms seem to be
in great demand here of late Dur
ing the past few weeks many farms
have changed hands. This. week.
however the changes have been more
numerous than at any time in the
past. Several deals were made on
Monday and Tuesday and three more
deals are hanging fire.
Frank Sunberg sold his '160
acre farm to John Twist at $3.50 an
acre Fred Weeks sold the Pat Cor
man 100 he bought last March to HI.
A. Tesman and M. F. Ehlert at $265
an acre; Henry Frederichsen sold his
200 acre farm to Harvey Williamson
at $500 an acre; Frank Weston solid
his 80 acre tract to Chris Zaiger at
$275 an acre and Charley Johnston
sold his 80 acre farm to Earl Heuss
at S247 an acre. This is not bad
showing for land in this community.
Henry Turner sold q 240 acre tract
at 1855 per acre. and Earl Maharg
sold 100 acres to Henry Kleuver
for 1887 so per acre. There were
several other deals made and more

BALL GAME NEXT SUNDAY

A ball game has been scheduled
between Brayton and Audubon for
next Sunday at the Johnson ball
park, We understand that Brayton
has a good team and as the Audubon
boys have been faithfully practicing,
there is no reason why this game.
even though the first OF the season,
should not prove an interesting one
and bring out large sized crowd of
fans The game will becalled prompt
ly on time. $500 o'clock. Come out
and boost for the home team next
Sunday and every game thereafter.
There was some talk of scheduling
game for Decoration day, but the
management thought better OF the
idea and decided not to play on Me-
mortal day this year.
Enough money has been subscrib-
ed to purchase the uniforms, now 1t
is up to the patronage given by low
ers of the national pasttime to see
that the gate receipts pay out this
season and leave a nice balance in
the treasury.
The Audubon concert band will
furnish music before, during and fol-
lowing the game.
Elkhorn viii play Audubon here a
week from next Sunday.

W. 0. WIS HOLD
BIG POW WOW
LARGE DELEGATION FROM AT
LANTIC GUESTS OF HONOR
AT FEAST AND DANCE

That the W.O. WIS of Audubon are
a live bunch was clearly demonstrate
ed last Thursday when the members
of Maple Leaf Camp No. 4S2 gave a
banquet to about 80 members from
the lodge in Atlantic. This affair
was given in return for the courtesy
given the Audubon lodge in Atlantic
a few weeks ago.
At eight o'clock a parade, headed
by the band and drill team of the
order followed by hundred or more
members OF the order marched from
the hall up Broadway along South
Park and then back to the hall A
large crowd of spectators witnessed
the event
On the return to the hall the pro-
cession disbanded and witnessed
some splendid work by the drill team
under the direction of the leader, w.
8. Roberts. The band furnished a
number of musical selections and
then led the way to the Methodist
church where banquet was served.
The ladies of the Woodmen Circle
and wives of the w. o. WIS Joined in
serving the splendid banquet Ar
rangements had been made to serve
$50 but many more came so that
about $40 were served. 1t was inn
possible to seat all at once, so it was
necessary to fill the tables a second
time. Practically everyone was
able to gain admission to the base
ment and when the first tables had
been served short program was
given.
On behalf of the lodge and the cit
liens of Audubon, II. j. Hoogenakker
gave the address of welcome to which
Sovereign Murray of Atlantic re-
sponded in happy way. Sovereign
Advisor j. b Jewell, one of the or
iginators of the order came from
Omaha and was called on for a talk.
He responded very courteously and
gave the large crowd present boil
ed down statement of the aims and
objects of the order. He is an in
teresting and fluent speaker but on
account of so many people waiting to
be served was compelled to be brief.
All were delighted to hear Colonel
Jewell and many hope that he will
be able to visit our city in the near
future. when he will not be pressed
for time and then he can give an en-
tire evening to a most interesting
phase of the greatest fraternal or
gaization in existence.
After the banquet the visitors and
members returned to the w. o. W..
hall where dancing was INDUCED in.
So many took advantage Of this OPP
portunity that the hall was crowded
to suffocation. The pavement in
front of the hall was cleared and
prepared for dancing. The orches-
ira was seated in front of the up
stairs windows and their music did
double duty for several hours while
dancing was in progress in the street
as well as in the hail.
The visiting Sovereigns were de-
lighted with the treatment given
them by Audubon and they have on
ly words OF praise for the best time
they ever had. The Atlantic men
and women hope to be able to return
the compliment to Audubon some
time later in the season.

WILL ROTH WRITES TO HIS
BROTHER FROM GERMANY

Will Roth who has been in Ger
many since the armistice was signed
and is now connected with the 18th
Company, Second Battalion, Fifth
Regiment OF Marines, writes his
brother John two very interesting
letters. In one of them he answers
Johns question whether he is learn
ing to talk German and Wills reply
is, ''H-ll no. we are teaching them
to talk English and believe me some
of them are learning to talk it pref
ty fast"
Among other things he says he
will probably start for home in Au-
gust Will is now a cook and is
among the best. He sends a notice
of dinner party that was held on
Easter Sunday for Secretary Daniels
and party. Secretary Daniels pro-
nounced the dinner as the best he
had had during his stay in Europe

aration of eatables such as are re-
ceived in the A. o. o. and turned
into most luscious morsels by the
18th company cooks.
