Lyle Mari had the misfortune to
lose a purse containing about $40 in
silver in Ironton about noon Satur-
day. He thinks he lost it somewhere
on Main street. Pretty tough luck
for the boy.
A line from Mr.. F. @. Kaths, presi-
dent of the Kansas Reserve State
Bank, Topeka, Kansas, advises US
that he has just bought a new home
in the Kansas capital and expects to
remove thereto about April 1st.
Miss Mae Collins left Friday for
Marquand, where she will spend two
or three weeks visiting friends, be-
fore she returns to her home in IRON
ton. She recently resigned her posi-
ton as saleslady in Miller's store
Flat River News.
Again we say there is entirely too
much reckless automobile driving on
the streets of Ironton. If it isn'tstop-
ped there is going to be q ~deplorable
accident n of these days. One or
two local truck DRYERS are especially
Indifferent and reckless.
The proposition of oiling Main
street again this spring is being con-
sidered. An effort is going to be made
to get a better quality of oil than that
used last year. 1t is said that the oil
last year didn't have the proper quail
titles and dried up too soon.
We hear that Mr.. R. A. Knapp,
formerly of Ironton, now living in st.
Louis, is just out of the hospital, where
he was confined two weeks by a
malignant carbuncle. He is not yet
able to resume his work on the road.
Valley friends hope to hear OF an early
recovery.
Our night train, No. s., from st.
Louis does not get here until 1928
O'Clock. It would be much more ac-
ceptable to the travelling public to
make the trip on No. II which reaches
here lust one hour earlier. Why not
petition the railroad officials to let us
ride on No. II instead of Nc. 5.
DIR. and Mrs. @. G. Kerlagon we're
called to Ste. Genevieve county Tues
day morning on account of the death
of his brother, Francis Emmett Ker-
lagoon. The deceased was 30 years OF
age. Interment was on Wednesday
at the Woodmen cemetery at the
Three Rivers Baptist church.-Bis-
marck Gazette.
There are more cases of influenza in
the valley and vicinity at present
than there were at any time the past
fall and winter and the physicians re-
port many new cases every day
Among those in Ironton afflicted are
Drs. Bates and Gay, Superintendent
Hanson, wife and little daughter, I. E
[Whitworth and wife and many others
Some of the children in the valley
have been afflicted with something o
the nature of scarlet fever-a sore
throat and a rash on the skin. Tht
physicians have determined it is moi
scarlet fever. Miss Kroeger, n oil
the teachers in the high school, how
ever, has just recovered from VIVA
her physician diagnosed as scarle'
fever.
Mrs. Woodside asks the ladies tx
call'at the Style Shop and inspect thu
large and beautiful stock of Spring
Millinery now on display. Every day
is bringing many new and wonderful
creations. You will find Pokes, Tur-
bans, Tams, Sailors and many hand
made hats. Some trimmed Will
beautiful flowers, ribbons and novelt,
trimmings in every conceivable color
Call and see them.
The Fordson Tractor demonstratiol
in Fletcher's field, between Irontol
and Arcadia, last Saturday, attracted
many spectators, a number of whom
were amazed and astonished witt
} what they saw. The Fordson Ger
tainly does the work, tearing up tn
soil with rapidity and ease. The tract
or, like the automobile, has come t.
stay, and is destined to play an. i'm
portant part in farm work h%enceforth
