Crime Attributed to Motor Car.
Chicago.--A wife's aloofness, an
automobile and extravaganza were
the reasons given for the murder of
Mrs. Bonnie Manning last night and
the attempted suicide of her husband,
Grover Manning. Several months ago,
Mrs. Manning bought an automobile,
but when she found her husband liked
it better than he liked her, she left
him. Driven lonely by his wife's con-
tinued absence, Manning sought her
and shot her. He then stepped into
an alley and fired shot into his brain.
He is not expected to live.

Bentinck township has now a wide
awake literary society as evinced by
the two meetings which has already
been held. The meetings have drawn
good sized crowds and they have been
filed full of enthusiasm.
On January 23rd the thermometer
registered a. below zero, yet even on
this cold night, we had a turn out of
nearly1O0 people. The program from
start to finish was both instructive
and entertaining. The flag song rem
dered by school No. l under the able
leadership Of Miss Kim was we'll rem
dered. The talk on "Cattle," by Mr..
VIM. Stratton was appreciated by the
audience at is showed that the speak
err knew what he was talking about
The "Irish" reading given by Edna
REIN was we'll rendered. The debate,
Resolved that a Consolidated school
is of more Benefit to a School Dis
trict than the one Room Rural Sys-
tenn" The affirmative vas upheld by
T. d .Acheson while the negative
was ably championed by John Kuick
and Erick Sannes. The discussion was
filled full of fire and discussion
but the judges gave the affirmative
their verdict.
The duet rendered by Mildred Hos
kins and Clyde Wooden was well
worth while and we predict a bright
future for these young people in the
musical field. The newspaper given by
Miss Kim was one of the treats of
the evening, it being filled full of wit
and good common sense.
The main feature Of the program
was Mr.. Sandy Cranston and his list
Of songs. We all enjoyed u
Harry Lauder" very much, and a
good many people who have never had
the opportunity to listen to Mr.. Gran
ston before were simply gratified be-
yond question. We hope to have Mr..
Cranston with us again. The songs
rendered by our own tenor %soloist,
John Talcott brough forth bursts of
applause from the audience and we
were all pleased with his efforts and
hope to be favored again in the near
future. The reading given by Glenora
Wooden was very entertaining for a
child of her years.
The Bentinck Literary Society has
challenged the Brander Literary So
ciety on the question "Resolved that
Compulsory Military Training should
be Adopted by the United States" 1t
is hoped that the Brander people will
accept the challenge. The Bentinck de-
baters will be Erick Sannes, John Ku-
ick and T. D. Acheson. We do not
know what the outcome will be but
we hope we will get a chance to de-
bate this important question.
