We have been too busy this week
to make our rounds of the court
house and will give all the court
news next week.
Editor Hoogenakker is indisposed
this week and confined TO his home,
/, his ailment being indigestion. He
was very sick man couple of
days.
G. L. Gore of the Johnson &
Gore firm. is i'll at his home the past
few days, suffering with a bad cold
and hardly able to talk above a
whisper.
John Ebert went to Manning
Tuesday forenoon on business and a
visit with old time friends. He will
have more to say about his trip upon
his return home.
For real good time attend the
dance given tomorrow evening at
the w o. w. hall. Everybody in
vited The best of music and good
order will be maintained.
Chas. Nelson of the First National
Bank is having a fine modern home
erected on his lot in Freeman's ad-
dition to Audubon. When completed
Charles and family will move into
the same.
Sam Magill. wife and son Walter
of near Gray were Sunday visitors in
Audubon at the home of their
cousin, Mrs. Joe Johnston an fam
! lily. They made the trip in their
fine new car.
We have just received a large
shipment of Red River Early Ohio
Potatoes for planting. Very choice
stock Come in and see them if
you are in need of any. Renftle
& Reed, South Park, Audubon.
Floyd and Clarence Turner who
have been home for the winter, de-
parted for Douglas. Wyo., Monday
where they will work on their claim
during the summer. The young
men are hustlers and no doubt will
make good in their new home.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Feltner, sr.,
were pleased Saturday to receive
word from their son James Feltner
stating that he had arrived safely
from overseas on last Saturday and
expected to be soon transferred TO
Camp Dodge discharged and sent
home.
One of the Huess boys who has
been overseas arrived in Audubon
yesterday morning. having had to
walk from south of town, where the
train was stalled. We are unable
to get in touch with him or his folks
on account of telephones being out
of commission on certain lines.
Attorney and Mrs. Joe H. Ross ex-
pect to leave this evening for Man
ming where they will attend the re-
ception to be given tonight by the
high school alumni for the returned
soldiers who were former students
of the Manning school. Mr.. Ross
is a graduate of that school, also.
The storm of this week, whether
a cloudburst or deluge, has put rail-
way traffic out of commission and
the daily papers are failing to ar
rive here. We have been kept busy
answering people over the phone,
who asked all kinds of questions
concerning this, that and the other
thing.
Owing to the non-arrival of trains
in Audubon yesterday and today and
being unable to get in touch with
parties over the telephone lines. it is
impossible to print much news that
otherwise would have been obtain
able. We telephoned several par
ties for direct facts concerning news
this morning but were unable TO
reach them.
