A SILVER WEDDING SURPRISE


February was the 25th anniversary we'd
ding day of MIR. and Mrs. Lewis Of Readstown,
And III tell you all about IL. If you'll only
give me time; I'll tell you all about it, But
Ill tell II in a rhyme. Mrs. v. A. Lewis was
washing out her clothes, The ninth being
washday. as everybody knows. Well, they
came along in cutters, And they loaded in
sleigh, And those who couldn't come at all,
Thought they'd better stay away. They came
bringing baskets. bundles and sacks, All loaded
up with goodies, Enough to break their backs.
They cooked lot of chicken, They fried lot
of ham. There salads, fruits and jellies.
Pickles too, and jam. There was frosted cakes
and cookies. And all kinds of pies. 1t was a
really, truly, honest to goodness Silver Wedding
Surprise. The coffee was delicious. Served with
richest country cream. And they had real
mashed potatoes-0h. that dinner was no
dream. There was old folks and young folks
Boys short and tall, Old men, young men, And
girls who weren't men at all Then some one
spoke Of playing games, While the girls stood
back in fear, For we'll they knew before they
came, That this year leap year. But they
summed up their courage As people always
can. And each girl chose a fellow, And then
the fun began. The fun in the highest,
There was joy on every face. All sorrow was
forgotten, Songs and laughter filed the place.
Bat that party was not perfect. IL didn't seem
just right, Without Mrs Ell Mcdowell and Mrs.
J. r. Wright. The couple seemed as happy,
As when they first were wed. And may their
blessings multiply, As years roll Ger their
heads. And may their joys be many, May
their melt away. And may we meet
with them again, On their golden wedding day.

SOME EXPERIENCES IN WEST
Former Vernon County Boy Writes
1a.hout Matters and Things

Editor Censor: We have had many
reverses since we came west. How
ever, this has been no fault of the
country. In 1914 we were getting a
very good start and looked as though
we were going TO make good; had a
nice start IN the general merchandise
business, and doing very good bust
ness, when fire broke out in the town,
and as the place was new, and no fire
protection, we lost all we had even to
our household goods.
We are located in the northeast
corner of the state in Roberts county.
Lisseton is our county seat with a pop
plation of about 1000. 1t is one of
the best counties in the state.
Enclosed you will find clipping
from our county paper showing you
what consideration | received in our
county meeting. Roberts county has
always been Republican and carried
the elections with good majority.
This year we are going to have quite
fight on, as we are infested with
new party, the Nonpartisan League,
or as we call them, Bolshevikies, for
every Socialist and pro- German in this
county is identified with the Nonparti-
san League, and it was up to the re-
publican party to nominate the strong
est men in the county to carry the
ticket. The nomination for register
of deeds came to me as a surprise
when my name was proposed in the
convention. Under the new primary
law we nominate our candidates under
the same system as the old conven-
tions used to be. When my name was
proposed received all the votes in the
convention, so / decided to make the
campaign for the Office. The only
opposition | have in the November
election is the Nonpartisan candidate
Thanking you for past considera-
ton l am Yours truly,
OSCAR GAITPER.

FARM, STOCK AND DAIRY NOTES

Chairman Oliver Hayden of Wheat

tour of inspection, and rumor has it
that he may seek new ioeation.
If the month of March gives town
folks butter for as cents, eggs for35,
flour for less than $500 per fifty pound
sack, and real milk for 10 cents a
quart, most people will not care
whether it comes in like a lion or like
lamb. Some rash grocer is sup
posed to have made this kind of pre-
diction.

La France and Kennedy appear in a

thinking their foolish patter about Il
fight contract is balm to aching
hearts.
Their work is so clean cut, so natural
new and genuine that we elect them
to the Hall of Fame among the whole
some entertainers on the vaudeville
stage.
They are not the headliners, but to
the writer's way of thinking they are
the real entertainers of the acts we saw
yesterday.
Paul Decker in And Son" takes a
role of little opportunity and gives it
breeze. speed and charm by the strength
of his own personality and that Is some
individual triumph.
Ernest Evans and numerous assistants
appear in lavishly mounted act called
wedding Bells" in which there is much
musical talent displayed.
1t seemed yesterday that Josie Heather
courted applause too much and she
