GAVE RECEPTION
FOR TEACHERS

Friday evening at the High
School gymnasium parents and
friends of the school numbering
about one hundred, joined in a
get-together meeting to meet the
teachers for the coming year.
Rev. Henry, assisted by Mrs.
Henry at the piano, led in singing
old familiar songs. Various stunts
were pulled off during the evening
and some Of our dignifed towns
men dropped their dignity while
participating.
The mothers of the Juniors and
Seniors were hostesses and served
light refreshments. 1t was entirely
a social meeting but one of the
best the Parent-Teachers' Associa-
ton has yet enjoyed. The fol-
lowing parody on Good Morning,
MIR. Zip, Zip, Zip" was written
and given by Rev. Henry:
Good Morning, Peden, Wood and
Pugh.
Is your education shy like mine?
Oh Allen, Timmens, Miller, Hill,
You're sure looking fine.
Christensen and Rendleman and
Baker too,
osthoff and Gambler, we well
come you;
Good Morning, pretty teachers all
You sure are some selection,--
A positive collection
Extra stakes her Pyle on you.

Floyd Hartman Sentenced
for Writing Threatening
Letters to j. HI. Barton

Letters alleged to have been writ
ten by Floyd Hartman to j. H.
Barton, wealthy Audubon county
farmer, threatened death to MEM
bers OF Barton's family and the des-
tructlen of his property unless he
consented to the marriage of his
daughter, Zola Barton, and gave
them the farm to live on.
Sheriff Frank Wilson and Coun-
ty Attorney I. M Rasmussen brot
Hartman to Atlantic this afternoon
Tor arraignment before Judge Earl
Peters IN district court. He was
brought here on county attorneys
information.
Hartman, it is said, has admitted
to the officers, the authorship of
the letters and signifed his willing
ness to plead guilty. To his sweet
heart and her mother, however, he
denies he wrote the letters. There
were several of the letters. All were
sent to Barton through the mails,
Rarton Immediately put them in
the hands of the officers.
The letters contained dire threats
against the lives of Barton's family
and the buildings on his farm in
Audubon township. The letters
did not say what members of the
family would be picked to pay the
penalty of the writer's wrath.
Barton was made the more un-
easy on receipt of the letters by
reason OF having been burned out
twice previously. The fires are
thought to have been of incendiary
origin.
Hartman is about 25 years old.
He served overseas in the world
war. His parents were former
residents of Audubon county and
now live in Dickinson county. The
Bartons are prominent in the com.
munlty. Bar on is the owner of a
large farm.-Atlantic Telegraph.

WRESTLING MATCH
A BIG SUCCESS

The Smoker given by the Amer
lean Legion at Brayton was big
success and the boys realized a
nice sum of money.
Anderson of Manning who was
to appear in the prcllminaries
failed to show up and Roy Jensen
was called back to school so Jake
Ihlelen and Holger Jensen put on
a short exhibition. John Jensen
OF Extra defeated Arnold Jensen Of
Brayton in two straight falls, first
fall IN twenty-seven minutes and
the Sc ;ond fall in twenty-four
minutes.
The Legion Post plans to hold
several doings of the same kind
during the winter, and also series
of lectures and other entertain
ments. The first lecture will be
early in October, probably the 4th,
when Col. Tiniey, former com
mander Of the l6Sth Infantry will
speak. This will be free to every
body and Legion members are
urged to attend as Col. Tinley
will just be back from the national
convention and will have lots of
interesting things to tell.

STATE WIDE MEMBER
SHIP DRIVE, OCT. 18TH.
CO-operator to Work His
District. Many New
Members Expected

October 18th, Audubon county
will enter, with ali the other coun-
ties OF the state of Iowa, on big
one-day Farm Bureau Membership
cleanup" campaign. This day
comes as a necessity to increase the
Farm Bureau membership because
during membership work last fall
there were so many men over the
state and in the counties who were
not seen. Just how many new
members there will be in the state
Is hard to estimate. However, the
number will run we'll into the
thousands.
Audubon county at present has
ll45 Farm Bureau members. The
night of October 18th it is expected
that she will reach we'll over the
1900 member mark. Several coun-
ties in Iowa already have reached
the two thousand mark.
The Farm Bureau Federation is
under year in age, but even with
only its few months existence it has
made such remarkable progress
that it is recognized today with
utmost respect by all active and
influential individuals and busi-
nesses Of the United States. 1t has
been proven that THE FARMERS
CAN ORGANIZE and it is real
lied, because of-the benefits already
derived, that the organization is
NOW here to stay and that it will
continue to grow until it is as
powerful a force in industry as it
rightfully should be.
Those who read and know what
the organization is doing and who
know what it is planning on doing
feel assured that it is matter of
but only a very few years until the
farmers of the states will be organ
lied practically one hundred per
cent strong, the same as is any
other prosperous and thriving in
dustry of the country today
October 18th will be eagerly
watched, not only by the farmers
and the enthus iastic Farm Bureau
members, but by all the interests
and business organizations of today.

PROSPECTS OF STATE
PARK IN COUNTY

Prof. L. II. Pammell of Iowa
State College and member of Iowa
Park commission, was in Atlantic
last week looking over sites for
state parks.
1t seems there is a prospect of
the old Hamlln homestead being
preserved in its present state by
being converted into state park.
The farm is now owned by N. j..
Hansen who has promised to let
the state care for the old landmarks
until such time as a state
park can be established there.
The old Hamlin home still stands
there and also the first courthouse
built in Audubon county. Both are
largely of walnut cut from the sur
rounding woods. Iowa's largest
tree is on this farm, dead, with the
exception of one huge branch.
Scores Of persons visit the place
on Sundays during the summer to
see the big tree and the old home
with it's huge fireplace and walnut
trimmings. These remains of
pioneer days should be preserved.

OUR WEATHER EYE
The Voice of Friends

AS the political campaign enters
Its crucial stage. the Journal would
feel itself guilty of a dereliction if
it failed to utter publicly what ap-
pears to be the common feeling of
the south part of the county to-
ward the condidacy of MIR. o. F.
lde for the representativeship.
There are few men who, at the
end OF a generation or more spent
IN single community, can COM
mand so great measure of appro-
cation and loyalty on the part of
nelghbors and friends as he. Nor
Is the esteem in which he is held
due wholly or even largely to the
fact that they have seen him make
a start with only his two bare
hands and become more than we'll
to-do. He has, by industry, thrift
and good judgment accomplished
this; but he has not grubbed so in
tently as to lose sight Of other
things worth while in life. He has
educated his children, stood un-
waverlngly for whatsoever things
are good and wholesome in neigh
borhood life, and devoted his time
and energy to the upbuilding of
the community, at times even set
ting its good above his own. For
many years he has been a staunch
advocate of cooperation among
farmers; and there are few men in
Audubon county who have been
more active in connection with the
Farm Bureau movement than he.
1t follows that Mr.. Ide has
claim that cannot be overlooked to
the support of his fellow citizens.
For not by clever political strategy,
nor crafty manipulation, nor yet
by the betrayal of friends and
nelghbors, as is 50 often the case in
politics, did he secure the nomina-
ton for the repres entativeship.
Rather, 1T came as recognition of
Il life OF integrity and of useful SER
vice in his community, as we'll as
OF a proved capacity in the man
agement of business affairs.
The Journal commends him
most heartily to those its readers
who do not know him personally.
That he would serve the county
most honorably and capably as its
representative in the General AS
sembly, it has not the slightest
doubt; and that Mr.. Ide's multi
tude Of acquaintances and friends
hold the same view of the matter
is evident from the unanimity with
which they express their approval
of his candidacy.

SNEAK THIEVES
ENTERED STORE

On last Thursday evening, some
sneak thief entered the j. S. Small
store and carried away quantity
OF cigars and candy. They also got
away with $l.75 in cash and gold
watch belonging to Frank Goeser,
an employe in the store, which were
in the cash register. No clue has
been found to the guilty party or
parties, but it is thought that the
work was done by local talent.

MRS. FRED TREMEL
LAID TO REST

Wilhelmina Ernestina Tremmel.
oldest daughter of Ludwig and
Bertha Bartlett, was born in Pom
cru, Germany, December 18th,
1850. The early years of her life
were spent in the little German
village of Langenhagen where, at
the age Of IA, she was confirmed
In the Lutheran church.
She was twenty-five when she,
with her parents, emigrated to the
United States and settled in Iowa
county, Iowa. Here, two years
later, she was married to Fred
Tremmel. For more than forty
five years they met the varying vi
clssitudes of life together with ever
increasing devotion and the be-
reaved husband sustains an irrep-
arabic loss in her death.
They came to Audubon county,
locating on farm northeast of
Extra in 1880, and have lived in
and near Extra ever since. The
forty years spent in this commu-
nifty were replete with innumer-
able deeds of Christian love and
ministry, and many a young wife
and mother, many family in adj
verslty and distress, will miss her
kindly council and loving service.
A good neighbor" everyone cal ed
her and higher encomium could
not be given.
She was for many years promi-
nently related to the work of the
Congregational church of which
she was member and the people
of that fellowship we'll know the
sincerity of her Christian experience.
Her last illness began August
29th. An operation the following
day was, perhaps, the only hope Of
saving her life, but the weight of
many years and body worn out
IN service for others made recovery
impossible and she passed away
on the 1lth. She was 50 years,
8 months and 2 days of age when
death came.
Louis and Fred Bartlett of Coon
Rapids and Sioux City are brothers
and Mrs. Charlie Klever of Extra
is sister. With them the entire
community joins in a common sor-
row. The funeral was conducted
from the Community church, Rev.
Henry officiating. Interment was
made in the Extra cemetery.

THERE WAS SOMETHING
DOING EVERY minute
People from Far and Near
Attended Extras Big
Fall Festival.

Extra and vicinity threw OFT the
stress and strain of its earthly
struggles on Monday and Tuesday
of this week while everyone joined
in making our big fall festival de-
eided success.
The affair which was given un-
der the guidance of the Commu-
nifty church and Commercial Club
was carefully planned and, altho
the crowd was not as large as had
been hoped for, owing to the fact
that many of our people were tired
out after attending the state and
county fairs which have been in
progress the past few weeks, still
we enjoyed large patronage and
those present expressed themselves
as we'll pleased with the efforts put
forth to entertain them.
Supt. Galloway of Carroll gave
an interesting address on Benefits
of Consolidated Schools on Mon
day morning to a fair-sized audi
ence, and the big fried chicken dim
ner which was so we'll advertised
was served to a mammoth crowd
by the Womans' Community Asso-
citation in large tent secured for
this purpose.
At p. m. the Extra Military
Band which furnished no small part
of the entertainment and which
did itself proud in the rendition of
its selections throughout the entire
celebration, gave few pieces after
which Hon. Clyde Herring, demo-
cratic candidate for governor Of
Iowa, very eloquently spoke on the
political issues of the day. He was
a forceful speaker and his address
brought applause from those who
heard it. The sports program
took up a large part of the after
noon and provoked much amuse-
ment. Many joined heartily in
the races, and the sack race proved
to be especially entertaining. So
much heat was exhibited in this
race that the committee in charge
was afraid to start the men in the
Push Ball game scheduled for the
second day. The boys who at
tempted the proposition were too
small to make the game interesting.
The ball game between Atlantic
and Anita drew a large crowd to
the Athletic Park where the boys
played a good game but Anita
seemed to be outclassed and lost to
Atlantic by a score of IA to 8; the
second day pickup team from
Extra played the Double Stars and
lost, the score card reading 4 to s.
The wrestling match between Ed
Hansen of Anita and Anderson Of
Audubon seemed to be the main
feature of the day as many came
for miles in the evening to witness
the event. Hansen had consider
able advantage Of his opponent as
regarded weight but the boys
both showed skill and Hansen
threw his opponent. The next
evening he met Jones of Audubon
on the mat but he, too, lacked
weight and went down to defeat.
The speakers for the second day,
j. E. Palmer, John I. Hammill
and w. B. Barney all gave excellent
addresses which were delivered to
appreciative audiences.
Good weather favored us both
days and fried chicken was entirely
inadequate for the crowd. The
stands all did we'll and tried to
give value received. About $40O
was realized by the Womans' Com
munity Association. All receipts
are to be used for the benefit of the
community. Come again, folks.
