Miss Margaret Nielsen who is
employed in Minneapolis, spent
Sunday at home.
c. ]. loft and family Of DAVIS,
Iowa visited here last week ct
the Hans Johansen home north
of town. The lofts and johann
sens were former neighbors in
Iowa.
The Misses Kristen and Ingrid
Jorgensen who are employed in
Minneapolis. came to Askov Mon
day and visited at the home of
their parents, Mr.. and Mrs. H. c.

til last evening.
Albert Thomson who has been
in Minneapolis for some time,

The Ole S. Sorenen family Of
West Denmark, Wis, and his
cousin. Wilhelm F. Sorensen OF
Hibbing who is visiting them al
West Denmark, arrived here
Saturday in antobomile and spent
q few days visiting at the Hans
Bagge home.
It has been reported to the
American that automobiles have
been seen driving without lights
hereabouts in the evenings. No,
alone is this against the law but
it is a very dangerous practice
and had better be stopped before
an accident occurs or the Law
takes ahold.
J. X. Larsen exhibited some.
thing unusual in town yesterday
1t was q full grown and ripe
Whitney crab apple and bios
som taken from the same tree
and the same branch on his farm
in the north part of the village
It is estimated that the time
from blossoming till the fruit is
ripe is about three months.
There has been fire in the peat
soil on L. C. Pedenen's eight,
north of town the past week ant
it has been necessary to kceI
quite close watch. However il
is apparently safe now with plow
ling and ditching on the north
and the county ditch on tn.
south. A good heavy rain woult
help materially and perhaps pi
lit out.
/ The village mayor, Carl Miller
expresses the opinion that i
would be well to observe a littl'
more caution with fires in bacl
yards-the burning of paper an.
wooden boxes and rubbish piles
While this is not a proclamation
or resolution it is nevertheless
advisable for all to be yer,
careful, to not start outdoo
fires on windy days, nor star
them SO late that the.
are still smoldering when tn
business places are closed an,
no one is left to watch.

ONE IN every EIGHT
HOLSTERS INTERESTED
IN UTILITIES, REPORT
CIV Associated Press,

INDIANAPOLIS, March 10. = One
Hoosier in every eight is directly in
terested in the public utility business.
Practically every Indianian is interest
ed in the utility business as patron.
These statements were made today by
Harry Reid, chairman of the commit
tee on public utility information of
the Indiana Public Utility association,
following a survey of the industry
made by the association.
I'VE have been taking stock of our
present condition" said Mr.. Reid. I'VE
find out the extent of the utility in
dustry in Indiana, we asked utility
companies to advise us how many en-
ployes they have, and at the same time
TO let us know how many stockholders
and how many owners of bonds they
have. The figures we have received
lead us to believe that one person out
of every eight in Indiana has a direct
interest in the operation of the light,
water, gas, telephone and traction in
dustries.
I'VE sent out letters to 375 compa-
MES in the state. This number covers
practically all the utilities with the
exception OF natural gas companies,
municipal plants and cooperative tele-
phone exchanges. OF the 375 compa-
MES asked as to the number of their
employees, 141 replied, showing a to-
tai OF 1910. Averaging the wage
earner's family at four, this would
mean that 7S.640 people are dependent
on the utilities for their daily bread
One hundred and twenty-six compa-
MES reported a total of 41,176 people
with direct financial interest in the
utility business"
II was said there are more telephone
companies than there are companies
operating in any other branch of the
utility business, and it appears from
the survey that the telephone business
has the largest number of employees
Mr.. Reid said. He added that replies
from 81 telephone companies show q
total of 6,625 employees.

NO LOCAL employees
AFFECTED BY RULING

Clarence Foreman, superintendent
of mails, said Friday that local civil
service employees would not be affected
by the recent ruling of Attorney Gen
eral Daugherty concerning pensions
for retired federal employees. There
are no employees of the class desig-
mated in the ruling in this city.
The attorney general ruled that only
those employees who held their posi-
tons as the result of competitive ex-
aminations were entitled to benefits of
the retirement act. Thus, all employees
who entered the service as the result
OF presidential order, without examina-
ton, were excluded.
Approximately 6,400 employees who
have retired have been receiving pen
sions illegally. according to the ruling.
Employees who have been paying their
az per cent into the pension fund
may have their money refunded by &C
ton of congress, it was stated
William Hansche, who retired in
August. 1920. is the only federal en-
ploye receiving a pension at present
in this city. He has been in the serv-
ice about 80 years. The local post
Office employs % clerks and % car
riers.
