ALBERTA NEW S

silence excepting school news so many
things have happened it's even hard to
tell where to begin. An oVerfood Of
business of all kinds seem to have been
in existence which was the direct cause
for no Alberta items adjoining the valu-
able columns of the Tribune for some
time.
The first Lyceum course entertain
ment was given last week by DR.. Burns
of Minneapolis and was pleasing sam
pie of what Lyceum course really is.
The Alberta promoters may we'll con-
graduate themselves on being able for
the first time to arrange for a series of
educational and instructive entertain
ments of this kind to be held here

Valley City, N. D., is visiting at the
Bangerter home this week.
The Great Northern agent has grace
fully retired from the land business and
is now able to carry on a conversation

solved such as who will keep the home
fires burning this winter"

the pool and confectionery business from
his father and himself and family are

F. L. Spaulding is fitting up the
Notifying building where he will be
found within a short time with a full
line of harness supplies and shoe re-
pair shop Mr.. Spaulding could not
handle the large amount of business

The first load Of soft coal arrived this
week and it went some"
Alberta has now joined the Otter Tail
Power Co. circuit and seems well salts
fed with the service. This town never
had any great kick coming on the light
ing system even when the power was
furnished by a Fordson tractor that was
used for blowing during the day time
w J. Braun will have charge Of all re-
pair work on the light system as usual
which is an iron clad guarantee that
while the water holds out at Fergus
Falls Alberta will have lights.
Mrs. Rogers on account of shortage of
help was compelled to close the Alberta
hotel. SO Alberta is once more nearly
destitute of hotel accommodations

less who all seem to have an avenue

sity of transporting any of them to a
topical climate building a saliva
ton army camp where they might be
cared for.

friends for several weeks and may de-
eide to remain there all winter.
Now that electrical current is abund-
ant we would like to know when that
SHOW will be put on. Alberta should
have a motion picture play at least two
nights each week. AS it is quite num-
Der of Albertaites attend in neighboring
towns when they would much rather
patronize home industry. When IS 1t
going to be Bill?
The Misses Hazel and Irene Eystad

ming.
Chris Eystad has been on the sick
list the past few days.
r. E. Prickett has rented a farm four

an up to date orchestra within a short
time.
