underwent was quite complicated, but
he appears to be making it at last
and is getting along nicely.
Mr.. /. G. Miller, a brother of the
late S. B. Miller of this place, passed
thru here Wednesday on his way home
from Harold where he had been to
look at some land. He bought a half
section up there some time ago, and
thought of making another purchase,
but found that the price had advanced
so much that he did not purchase.
Raw land there is now selling at $55
to $50 per acre. He says the land IN
the central part of the state is so wet
that it is bothering farmers to get in
their crops.
DR.. Leighton's mother, who had
been visiting here for several weeks,
returned last Sunday to her home in
Iowa City.
Last Monday was Alice Jane Leigh
toms fourth birthday and in honor of
the occasion she invited twelve of her

Mr.. Sam Livingood, of Millidge-

after his farm south Of town. He
says he has v had better prospects
for a crop on his farm at this tine of

this year, but is being worked by
hired help, and he is we'll pleased
with the manner in which the work

OBITUARY

Another very sad death occurred in
our city Wednesday morning when
Mrs. Frank Stevenson was taken
from our midst. About three weeks
ago Mr.. Stevenson was taken with
the flu. Before he had recovered his
little son Hugh. aged two years, took
the scarlet fever and the home was
q%uarantined. Mrs. Stevenson nursed
the two until last Thursday when she
was taken with a severe attack of
tonsi]itis. This soon develop ed into
acute %nephritis. the poison going all
through the system. Two trained
nurses were procured, and Drs. Leigh
ton and Landman of this place and
DR.. Morrow of Yankton were called,
and everything possible was done for
her, but the case seems to have been
hopeless from the start. After acute
suffering for several days she passed
away.
Olive Veola Bardwell was born
in Scotland March 6. 1888, and was
the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w.
E. Bardwell. On June 20. 1911,
she married Mr.. Frank Stevenson and
went to Mott, N. D., where Mr.. Ste
venson was engaged in the lumber
business. Last summer he resigned
his position there and they moved
back to Scotland where he took a po-
sition with his brother, Jos Steven
son, in the garage. Only a few weeks
ago they purchased a nice home, and
with all the comforts of a pleasant
home, and surrounded by friends, they
were in condition to enjoy a full
measure Of happiness. She leaves,
besides her husband, a little boy,
Hugh Fraley. two years of age. a
baby boy having died at birth five
years ago. She also leaves a mother,
two sisters, Mrs. Elsie Wilcox, now
with her husband, Capt. E. v. Will
cox. at Fort Sill, Ok. and Mrs. LISA
Treiber of Scotland, and a brother,
Howard Bardwell, at Galena, Kans.
Owing to the fact that the home is
still under quarantine services will be
held only at the grave, and burial this
afternoon ut 200 o'clock. Her bro.
ther Howard is expected to arrive
today. and Mrs. Wilcox may also
come, but a not get here before to-
morrow. While death always brings
it's sorrows. when it breaks up a
pleasant home and robs the little
child Of a mothers love and care it is
doubly sad, and to those who in this
case are thus bereayed we can only
offer u sympathies as consolation.
Mrs. Hardinberg went to Yankton
Friday to attend the funeral Of little
Dorothy, daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Clarence Thomas. The little girl
died at the hospital Thursday, after
undergoing an operation for append
citis. It was found that the appendix
had broken and gangrene had set il
J before the operation was performed,
SO the case was hopeless. Mrs. Har.
dinberg and Mrs. Thomas returned
Saturday evening.

". R. &c. HIGHER FARE
PETITION UP TOMORROW
Commissioners Will Have Mass Of
Testimony Before Them
Taken at Hearings.

The commissioners today put the
finishing touches on the estimates OF
District expenses for the next fiscal
year. and tomorrow they will begin
consideration of tho petition Of the
Washington Railway and Electric
Company for q higher fare.
The Commissioners, sitting as the
Public Utilities Commission. will have
before them a mass Of testimony
taken at public hearings. A decision

Guilty in which the city fathers find
themselves. with one company plead
ing for financial aid and the other
company the Capital Traction -
thriving on the present rate.
In view of the opposition that has
been voiced against zone system by
civic organizations throughout the
city. IT is not believed likely that the
commission will authorize such a sys-
tenn. Another argument being used
against the zone plan is the testimony
Of William F. Ham. president Of tho
would provide only a portion Of the
additional revenue which the company
needs.
The commission has announced that
1t will not consider relieving tho
Washington Railway and Electric
Company by raising the rates Of tho
Potomac Electric Power Company.
,. The only alternative left to the COM
| mission is to authorize straight fare
of or Z cents. with a possible ar
ransement of four tickets for 26 cents.

Editorial

We have read perhaps a
dozen different article.
concerning "executive
ability"-articles in which
great, long-winded argu-
ments are given as to the
things that make for E. A.
The whole lot may be
boiled down to one brief
sentence-"the ability to
get the job done on. time"
If you can't accomplish
it yourself, then get some
one to help you. But GET
1T DONE.
Naturally to accomplish
things you must have a
good disposition, a love for
humanity and a desire to
do something"
All qualities which any
one of us can develop
with a little conscious
effort.
Executive ability isn't un-
attainable. Neither is it
born with one. OF course.
all of us cannot be presi-
dents of steel mills or huge
manufacturing plants, but
we can be executives in our
line.
