An important business change On
Main street occurred yesterday morn
ing when T. O. Haugen, proprietor Of
the State theater, purchased the stock
and the good will of the Bee Hive gen
eral merchandise store owned by f. s.
Hanson. The stock was not invoiced,
being sold in a lump. MI. Haugen
took possession at ten o'clock yesteT-
day morning. Mr.. Hanson, the for
mer proprietor, has conducted the
store successfully for about ten years
and has built up a very nice trade.
His failing eyesight and poor health
has made him DESTROYS of resting from
active business for a time and it was
largely for this reason that he dis
posed Of his store. His colleagues on
the street regret to see him retire
from business and trust that he will
continue to make Brookings his home.
Mr.. Haugen has no new announce
ments to make in regard to the store
except that he will endeavor to build
it up and may add several new fea-

less pressure from stocks of goods.

ILLUSTRATE POULTRY cULLlNG

Poultry culling demonstrations will
be held in Argo, Eureka, Sterling,
Brookings, Winsor, Bangor, Volga and
Sinai townships August 8th and 9th.
A demonstration in each township
will consist of culling out the non
layers and diseased birds from a flock
of chickens. Miss Suffer, poultry
specialist of the agricultural division,
State college, will conduct the work
for the Brookings County Farm Blu
reau.
Plans are being made so that Gull
ing demonstrations may be held in
every township in the county. People
who wish to learn how to Gull their
f1ocks probably should attend the
demonstrations in their respective
townships, which will be advertised
locally. Farm focks have been culled
in many states. 1t has resulted in the
culling out of almost one-half the
birds from these focks, while the total
income was not reduced. Parties
wishing to get information about poul-
try culling should write the Bookings
County Farm Bureau at Brookings.

car had been abandoned in the road

found. The owner of the car appeared
the next day and claimed it but neg

EMBEzzLER SENTENCED 2 YEARS

F. L. Harrell, former agent Of the
American Express Co. in Bookings,
who embezzled $4,000 of the COM
pany's funds several months ago
while employed here, was arrested last
week at his home in Missouri and
brought before Judge w. N. Skinner
at WATERFOWL, where he entered a plea
of guilty and was sentenced to two
years in the penitentiary at Sioux
Falls. The discovery of the shortage
Of $4,000 was made by the express
company last winter and it was said
to have covered a period of about a
year. Harrell's arrest at that time
was withheld pending a settlement of
the loss. Harrell's father, it is under
stood, made up as much Of the loss
as he was financially able, but the
settlement was not sufficient to sat
isfy the express company so a COM
plant was made and his arrest or
dered. In his plea before the judge
Harrell stated that he didn't know
where the money had gone.

DISABLED APPLY
FOR BONUS FIRST
VOCATIONAL MEN GIVEN FIRST
OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE
APPLICATIONS
VETERANS N BROOMNGS WILL FOLLOW
Certain Class in s. A. r. c. Are
Entitled to Bonus Accord
ina to Decision.

The vocational training men at
| State college will be the first from
Brookings to make out their applica'
lions for the state bonus according to
the announcement of j. Ray Fridley,
Bookings county bonus officer, whose
Office is in the Red Cross room at the
county court house. Friday, August D,
has been set aside for the wounded
ex-soldiers in training at the college.
All of the rest of the county except
Brookings city and township have
been taken care of and these men will
start reporting at the bonus office on
Saturday to make out their applica'
tons. To facilitate the work, the eX-
service men from the first ward only
will report Saturday, the second ward
next Monday, the third ward Tuesday
and the fourth ward, Wednesday. The
ex-service men residing outside of the
city limits within Brookings township
NAV report with the men from Brook
ings city on the allotted days. The
ONCE Is ODcH osOO 'h eA
500 p. NJ. with an hour off for lunch
at noon. AS soon as h men from
Bookings city and township have re-
ported the bonus office will be open
to stragglers who We're unable to re
port on the day set for their district.
Contrary to the geenral impression
that S. A. T. c. men are ineligible TO
the state soldiers bonus, members
of the compensation board have ruled
that Class B men are entitled to the
same consideration as other conscripts
or enlisted men, and will make pay
uents to those who belonged to this
class, according to j. Ray Fridley,
Brookings county bonus officer. Sec
ton IS of the bonus law has this pro-
vision: mo compensation shall be
payable to persons serving in the Stu
dents Army Training Camps, who in
addition to military training received
general educational instruction"
This, according to Mr.. Fridley, the
board has interpreted applies to those
who continued their regular academic
work at some S. A. T. c. school in
addition to one or two hours a day
at military drill. The other class
those who either enlisted or were
drafted and who were sem to one OF
these schools to take a special short
course in auto-mechanics or similar
branch, and devoted their time en-
tirely TO this special work and to mill
tary drilling, will be looked upon the
same as though they had been sent
direct to camp or taken overseas.
This will include a large number of
men who were sent to State college
during the war for training, provided
they were in the service more than
sixty days.

CAMP IS
GREAT SUCCESS
SENIOR CAMP CLOSED SATURDAY
AND JUNIORS HAVE FUN
THIS WEEK
EARL OLSON WAS HIGH POINT WINNER
Rotarians Visit Camp, Play Ball
With the Boys and Eat Up
Their Chow.

The Rotary Clubs boys camp which
closes this week has been the most
successful project of boys work ever
carried out in Brookings and one Of
the finest things the Rotary Club has
done for the community. The Senior
camp closed last Saturday and their
places We're Immediately taken by the
Junior camp, numbering % happy
youngsters. The camp has been under
the supervision of Rev. H. w. Full
weller whose experience as boy scout
leader has made him very popular
by V. V. Varney, Y. M. c. A. secretary
at State college, and two college stu
dents, Welty and Thune. The Rotary
Club members visit the camp regularly
showing their active interest in the
work. Last Friday the Rotary ball
team went out to the camp and played
a game of indoor ball with the camp
team which resulted in a victory for
the Rotarians, 10 to IL, but not an
easy victory by any means. After the
game the Rotarians had supper with
the boys, an event which gave then
all keen pleasure. Everyone said that
it was as fine a meal as they ever sat
down to-.
The sports and athletic contests at
the camp have been one of the most
interesting features. The Senior field
day was held last Friday and the prize
ribbons we're awarded to the winners.
Earl Olson won the greatest number
of points in the meet. The results
were as follows:
5O-yard dash-Earl Olson, first; Mar.

CHECK FAR

The fame of Brookings is extending
to the four corners of the earth. Re-
Gently a most unusual incident oc.
CURED in India that calls to mind the
saying of what a small world this
is after all. A check on the Bank
of Brookings donated by a Bookings
citizen to a missionary cause travelled
to India before it was cashed. 1t
was presented at a bank in Calcutta,
India, of which Horace Fishback, Jr.,
son Of Mr.. and Mrs. Horace Fishback
Of this city. is M of the officers.
Mr.. Fishback was Of course familiar
with the bank and the person who
wrote the check and knew 1t was
valid, so it was cashed without the
usual long delay and investigation.
customary when foreign checks are
presented. This incident was re-
counted in a recent letter which Mr.,
Fishback received from his son in
India.
