+ The outer row of tall trees surround
ing Vernon Park were cut down dur
ing the past week. The trees were
splendid specimens but the little park,

A joke too good to keep was played
on Nels Rams, Tuesday evening while
returning from New Ulm, Nels drove
the heavy truck used for general de-
livery at the Big Store and after trans
acting business at New Ulm and drink
ing nothing stronger then cup of hot
coffee, Nels started home in the face of
a good strong northwestern breeze
Not until he reached home few hours
later, did he discover the loss of a
nearly new cord tire. Very early the
next morning Mr.. Rams started back
over the rim track to recover the loss
of the missing tire. Imagine his sur
prise in finding by the road side in
stead of the nearly new tire, an old
battered, much the-worse for wear
tire evidently left by the one who
picked up the lost tire. Nels is some
what mystifed as to whether the joke
is practicable or otherwise, he is still
advertising for the lost truck tire
