knAuL CHANGES LOCATIONS
Well Known Druggist to Move to the
Building Now Occupied by. Willard
Service Station This Fall

The r. Knaul drug store will change
locations some time this fall and will
occupy the Miller building where the
Denison Storage Battery company and
the Model Electric company are now
located. The stock will be moved as
soon as these two concerns move into
their new building just north of the
post Office.
Mr.. Knaul is indeed fortunate to Sc
cure such a fine location as the Miller
building. located as it is in the heart
of the business district. The room is
amply large enough to accommodate
his fixtures and will make light and
airy room. 30 7oW
The reason for this change of loca-
ton Of the Knaul drug store is due to
the fact that the First National bank
desires to enlarge their banking room
and are going to install additional
vaults. The First National has owned
for number Of years the building oc-
cupied by the Knaul drug store 4

couple left KirOn and moved to Hecla,
s. D., and after spending three years
at that place moved to Pine City,
Mimi, where they resided until last
spring when they moved back to Hec-
la to make their home. She was 81
years of age at the time of her death.
The funeral took place Thursday, short
services being held from the home, the
remains afterwards being conveyed to
the Methodist church In Hecla, where
the funeral services were held and the
remains laid to rest in the cemetery
at that place by the side of her daugh-
ter. Mrs. Nordholm, formerly Miss
Hannah Sjogren, during her residence
in Kiron, was converted and baptized
and became a member of the Free Mis-
sion church and lived christian life

ISOLATION to the stricken ones, which
will help them considerably in their
severe trial to know that the dear wife
and mother taken away from them is
safe at home in the celestial abode
beyond, there to look and wait for
their coming. She has a host of
friends and acquaintances in Kiron
who favorably remember her and who
now join the stricken ones in mourn
ing her death. She was a very ami
able woman, true friend, a fine wife
and most devoted to her children, hus.
band and home. Besides her husband
she leaves seven children, the oldest
being seventeen years old and the
youngest thirteen months old, an aged
mother Mrs. A. G. Sjogren, one broth
er and two sisters residing at North
Branch, Mimi, and other relatives and
friends. The deepest sympathy ofNthe
entire community goes out to the be.
reaved husband and children in their
unspeakable loss. Alfred Nordholm

John Lass of Denison, who with her
husband left for Hecla upon learning
of the. accident and who remained
for the funeral. Mrs. A. G. Sjogren,

lice was conducted by Rev. Robt. Kari,

time friends of this excellent old lady
were in attendance at the burial and

The sad and tragic death of Mrs. AL
fred Nordholm, former Crawford
county lady, who for many years prior
to her marriage resided at Kiron, pc-
Cured near Hecla, 49, D.. last week on
Monday, August 18th. While at work
getting dinner, on going into an adj
joining room to care for her baby, she
noticed something burning and going
back into the kitchen she found the
oil stove in blaze, one of the burners
evidently having been turned up too
high and having set fire to paper on a
shelf above the stove. Hastily she
picked up the oil stove to carry it out
doors and in SO doing spilled oil from
the stove onto her dress which imme-
dately caught fire. Her call for help
quickly brought another lady in the
house to her aid and with bucket of
water she quickly extinguished the
flames which had already burned her
severely about the face and breast.
Her husband who was at work in the
field some three miles away was sum-
moned to the house at once and doc
tor sent for and everything possible
that could be accomplished was done.
Her sufferings from the burns were
most severe until at II o'clock at night
when her life passed out of time into
eternity She was conscious up until
9 o'clock in the evening, when she
called her children and husband to
her bedside and commended them into
Gods care and babe them a touching
good bye, realizing that she soon was
to leave them, and said she very soon
would join her little daughter who left
the family circle last spring for the
home beyond! Shortly after bidding
the dear ones farewell she became I'M
conscious, in which state she remain
ed until II o'clock, when death re-
leased her. Just before taking her
last breath a peaceful smile illuminat-
ed her face as she spoke the name of
her darling daughter who had gone be-
fore, and with that radiant smile on
her .countenanGes she passed out Of this
vale of sorrow and unrest into the
abode of the celestial home Of her
Saviour. She was born in Sweden
and came with her parents to Craw-
ford county, where they resided for so /
many years, where she grew to wo-
manhood and on April Is, 1908 mar

port to Secretary Of State

County Attorney Andy Bell is after
Crawford county automobile owners
who have failed to pay their motor
fees for last year and this year to the
secretary of state at Des Moines. A
list Of 938 delinquents residing in this
county was sent to the county attor'
ney with Instructions that he take he
matter up with them and see that the
fees are paid.
Last week Mr.. Bell sent 'out notices
to the delinquent owners and since
then from twenty-five to fifty have Wis
tied his Office each day and made prop
er settlement. Already over 100000
in delinquent fees and penalties has
been paid in to him.
Mr.. Bell states that the chief trouble
is the fault of the owners Of cars not
notifying the secretary of state of a
transfer of ownership and these cars
are on his books as belonging to him.
In many Instances owners have junk
ed their cars and have failed to noti-
fy the secretary of state to this effect
and of course the fees are charged
against them. These matters are be-
ing Strengthened out by the former
owners by signing affidavits stating
that the car was transferred or junked.
instructions have gone out from Des
Moines for officers to be on the look
out for all machines not carrying the
1919 license plates and arrest drivers
of such cars. County Attorney Bell
will give the delinquents in this coun-
ty Q few more days of grace and then
will notify officers to arrest all drivers
who have not complied with the law.
