PURE GOLD

Speak a good word for your own
town and country whenever an OPP
portunity presents itself. More towns
die for want OF confidence, on the
part OF business men, and public
spirit, than from rivalry of neigh
boring towns or adverse surroundings
When man is in search of home
or business location, and goes to
town and finds everything brimful
of hope and enthusiasm over the
prospects of the place, and earnestly
at work to build up the town. he soon
becomes imbued with the same spir-
it, and as result he drives down his
stakes axd goes to work with the
same interest. When, however. he
goes to town and everyone ex-
presses doubt and apprehension in
the future prospects of the town, he
naturally feels that it is not the
place for him, and at once shakes the
dust from his feet, while he pulls
with all possible speed for some 9TH
er town. Consequently try and
make live, enterprising. progressive
town out of the one in which you
live. and remember that when you
are working or saying good word
for your town. you are accomplishing
all the more for yourself. Then speak
good word for your town.

Gently lost his $500 panama when
he stepped to the side of the road to

of the car didn't do a thing but grab
Pats hat and speed on. A week ago
someone took his car and it was not
located until the following morning

him and is thinking seriously of SCI

would do this at once If 1t wasn't
that he is afraid some good-looking

HEAVY RAINS sporLEp PLANS

The heavy and frequent rains of
last week completely spoiled all of
the plans for the Stubs Motor Co.
and o. X. Purdy, who had planned
to give away Ford touring car and
a Fordson tractor on the last day of
the fair. The plan was to sell 1000
tickets to the dance given in the big
tent on Mr.. Purdy's property. 1t
rained almost every night last week
so It was impossible to give the
dance. The big flood on Wednes-
day night made 1t impossible to use
the tent and floor until Saturday
night, so that in fact dancing was
had but the one night. 1t was i'm
possible to sell the tickets, owing
to the weather conditions. Howev-
er, both gentlemen stated last night
that the sale of tickets would con-
tinue until the 1000 had been dis
posed Of. Tickets already sold are
still good A series of dances will
be held within the next few weeks
at which time it is expected that all
of the remaining tickets will be dis
posed Of This means considerable
added expense, but the gentlemen
are going through with their propo-
sition in good faith and will carry
out their part of the agreement as
originally planned

JUDGE CHURCH WAS sTUNG

Judge Church of Jefferson, is
asking his friends. whether he looks
like an easy mark" or philan-
thropist.
He and Mrs. Church were coming
into town on the east paving and
were hailed by a couple of women
driving Ford, who said they had
run out of gasoline.
Judge Church very accommodate
ingly came to the Manhattan station
and secured supply for them, telling
them to leave the can at the station
when they got into town. He came
on ahead to show them the proper
oil station. but the dear things
dashed on by the plant and dis
appeared at high speed ON west
Lincolnway.
The Judge paid the bill for the gas
and also the price of the can. and
admits now that he is "sadder but
WISER" If not a philanthropist!
The Judge says he is "reserving
his decision" on what he win do when
next he finds car in trouble, partic-
ularly If it seems to be IN charge
of that branch of the human family
only so recently given the ballot.
Being former prominent suffragist
the Judge now wonders If ne wasn't
slightly off his trolley when he
championed equal rights"
Oh, well, the dear girls were prob
ably out of cash as we'll as gas and
didn't have the courage TO say So
Mebbe so.

MANY ATTEND REUNION
Delightful Event Held at Home OF
John G. Nelson, Near Bray
ton on Sunday.

The beautiful country home OF
John c. Nelson, near Brayton. was
the scene of happy family reunion
last Sunday when more than $50 CT
the descendants Of Hans Nelson
gathered in a family reunion. L.
has been the custom for years to
gather at this home and NJ. until
last year was an organization form
ed. On account of the inclement
weather the attendance was not as
large as in former years, AMI many
from distance are not able to at
tend each year.
But it was splendid gathering
and everyone present had a delight
full time. The Nelson home is one
of the most pretentious in Audu-
bon county and Mrs. Nelson has
earned reputation for being able
to provide for large gathering, so
that the event is looked forward 20
with great anticipation from year
to year.
A resolution containing the re-
grets of the family at the absence
of Peter Nelson, father OF John Z.
Nelson, was passed by those pres
ent and a copy of which was sent
to Mr.. Nelson, who is III at the home
of his daughter, Mrs. Evans Mar
quesen, in' this city.
An organization was formed last
year and 1t was decided 20 continue
it this year During the afternoon
hours T. NJ. Rasmussen presided ov-
err a meeting which elected the fol-
lowing officers for the coming year:
C. A. Nelson. president. and John p.
Andersen, secretary and treasurer.
C. A. Nelson, T. M. Rasmussen and
John c. Nelson were also appointed
a committee 20 look after the bus
mess OF the organization and to e.
range for the meeting next year,
which was voted to be held on the
Sunday before Labor Day OF each
year.

FARMER HANGS HIMSELF

Financial trouble has driven Nels
t. Nelson, wealthy retired farmer of
Harlan, to kill himself.
Nelson's body was found late on
Monday hanging from tree near a
railroad bridge mile from town.
Nelson had climbed the tree, tied
rope about his neck and then fired
bullet into the top Of his head. In
falling his neck had been broken.
The body was seen swinging in
the wind. by train crew, who
brought word to town.
Nelson had left home in the morn
ing, telling his wife he was going
up town. The family had no intima-
ton he contemplated suicide, though
it was known he was greatly wor-
ried and he had appeared melan-
choly recently.
He was a middle-aged man and
leaves a wife and five children.

People were unanimous in proclaim
ing the lady and the clown, and the
strong man and his daughter as
worthy attractions and whenever
they appeared they were given hear
ty applause.
The association will fall behind
this year. Just how large the de-
ficit will be is not known at this
time as all the bills are not in. The
total attendance was about $500 and
the total receipts something like
$500 less than last year.
All regret that there could not
have been surplus this year so that
some needed improvements could be
made. However. some way may yet
be devised so that new cattle barn
can be built and other necessary Inn
provements made before the fair
next year.
