has his hands full putting on the best
show with a pitchfork he knows how
Revillo Lundt, son-in-law of Mrs
Thos. j. Coonrod, left Monday for the
army hospital at Boise barracks t.
take treatment for being gassed whiIe
in the service Rey was Dist Divi-
sion Lad and fine boy. We hope that
he will soon improve sufficiently to
be out again. He spent his hitch .,
corporal in q machine company, being
about the only one out Of his COM
pany to come out unscathed.
Illustrating the true spirit Of a.
truism As practiced by the good 81
maritan, we have the unequalled e1-
ample Of the neighbors Of our little
countryside helping out in time Of
great distress the sick Of our commu-
nifty. Neighbors gathered at the
w. N. Hart home on Monday, soon
placing the hay in the swath. How
ard Harper, Oscar and Charlie Ivie,
John Carpenter and Charles Amen,
all united their efforts the past week
to seed oats for our friend and neigh
Dor, Gus Amen. We feel that these
men need special commentator for
their acting thus as they would wish
to be done by, devoting themselves
to the interests of others more needy
than themselves although their work
was pressing and urgent.
Lake Ivie has been helping Bert
Wright this week put up hay on the
Johnson ranch which Bert has rented
for the season.
Kari Coonrod is helping Skip Spaul-
ding this week in his hay. We have
an idea that Karl has his eye on one
of the girls and wants to win home
there.
Harry Ivie has left for the Ed AL
len ranch near Falk to help out with
the work. Can't tell how long he
will be gone, as work is increasing.
Lewis, Harry and Lake Ivie took
six head of stock to New Plymouth on
Thursday of last week for ]. K. All
mon. The boys are used to riding,
but this was, rather strenuous trip
for them as the stock were quite frac-
tious trying to go in every direction
aut the sight one. The boys, how
ever, arrived back home late in the
evening and gave orders not to call
breakfast till noon the next day.
This IS the month of weddings and
roses; yes, and the time most average
humans lose all religion they ever
had when nice slap from the cows
tail about blinds them for all time to
come. Yes this is a month of ro-
nance and love, not to mention the
flies and the pestiferious
weeds that chokes out all that man
tries to grow. 1t is nice to contem-
plate getting married amid roses fra
grant, if it wasn't for our dear moth
er-in-law who wants to steer the ship
of state with motherly hand for
all those concerned. Oh well, all ros-
es have thorns and bee singers; the
main thing is not to get stung.
The merry crowd that thronged the
halls of Modin castle last Saturday
night carried away memories of very
pleasant moments. Unfortunately
he reporter is convalescing from an
attack of hay fever, so he had fish to
,ry at home that evening. However,
We are told that plates for over 100
we're spread and emptied by the hun
yry multitudes.
Quite a bunch of boys went swim
ming at the Modin home Tuesday in |
he Canyon canal The time was
llong late in the evening. While in
he water some of the others stole |
heir clothes, then rotten egged them,
'dding insult to injury, although it
vas all taken in the true spirit of |
port. However, the boys had time
coating their garments and then only
,etting inside them about IL p. m.
Miss Ada Honey spent few brief
moments visiting Miss Ida May Coon
cd Wednesday.
