and has already made severl inno-
vations in the place. His bills are Of

MORPHINE THIEVES
BREAK IN DOCTORS OFFICE

One or more thieves broke into
the office of DIS. Trekell and Messer-
smith Sunday night and took large
sized bottle of morphine tablets from
DR.. Messersmith medicine case.
The intruder opened the medicine
case open with screw driver that
they had taken from the adjoining
office of DR.. Trekell.
In the afternoon man had come
to the office and inquired for NOR
phine but the Doctor refused him
and at the time he threatened the
doctor so was evidentally taking out
his spite on him by helping himself.
The robbers took 1000 tablets
from the doctor. It seems that there
had been four men in town one day
seeking the drug and called at the
different doctors in the city without
success.

COUNTRY CLUB ELECTS
OFFICERS FOR YEAR
Daily Golf Practice On;
Club Has 80 Mem
bers; Limit 100

The Country Club is nicely organ
lied and in working order, with a
good set of officers and much en-
thusiasm.
A meeting was held at the court
house Monday night and the follow
ing officers were elected for the
coming year:
c. M. Light, President.
Ralph Colvin, Vice President
Alpha Emrie, Secretary.
The board Of directors consists of
Frank G. Boles, C. M. Light, Alpha
Emrie, Ralph Colvin and Ralph
Summers.
The Club has eighty members at
the present time and when 100 have
been signed no more will be taken.
The golf links are in fine condi-
ton and already many Of the men,
bers have equipped themselves with
outfits and are being initiated into
the mysteries Of the game.
Membership is open to anyone
and those desiring to take member
ship should see any Of the officers
or directors who will be glad take
their subscription and any spare
charge which they may have. II
takes money to run Country Club
and this is a very important consid.
Grafton.
While some may think it a waste
of time to play golf it is more thar
likely that the exercise to be gotten
from the game will be far more val
liable than the time spent, and the
Club will also tend to bring folks to.
gether in a social way which will be
beneficial to all.
