Adolph Wellen, who for a number
OF years conducted general store at
Starkweather, last week sold same
to A. 7. Hidden and Con Gudmundson.
Mr.. Hidden for several years past had
been employed as manager of the
Farmers Grain Co., while Mr.. Gud-
munson for number of years was
employed in the store of which he now
becmes a partner. Both gentlemen
are well and favorably known in the
Starkweather territory, and we pre-
dict for them huge success in their
new venture.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has ordered all available box
cars now in the east to be sent i'm
mediately to the western states to
move the grain and other farm pro-
ducts which could only be moved in
small quantities during the past few
weeks on account of the lack of cars.
Many elevators in all parts of the
state have been filled with grain for
some time, and have been unable to
buy any more grain until some they
have on hand can be shipped. If an
order issued by the Interstate Com
merce Commission means anything
it should only be a short time until
all necessary cars are available.

from men wanting work, especially
in the harvest fields. and also calls
for men looking for hands. 1t has

to apply to us and men wanting

II have meat to eat that ye know

was trying to help a poor woman
and his disciples were trying to get
him to take some TODD. He meant
that 1t was more important to do
deeds OF mercy and works OF per-
sonal service than 1t was to pamper
our appetites. A street preacher
was once visiting me but ! could
get him to eat no supper he was
so anxious to get out on the street
and tell people about his Master,

and gave him a present OF thres

A greedy neighbor hearing of the
laborer's good fortune said ISL

The nobleman refused the calf, un-

the master.
Very we'll then" said the great
man. "since you force the calf on me
will take it but will be ~ gen
crous as you seem to be and will
give you something that cost me
three times as much as your calf"
SO he gave him the peasants tur.
nip. The astonished and crest-fal-
len fellow had to take the old tur-
nip for his fine calf and depart and
say nothing. His greed had cheated
himself.
/. But Jack was not only greedy
but ne was ungrateful. He did not
think of his mother who gave him
the pie. So am afraid there ave
lots of boys and girls who take all
the good things that parents give
them food, clothes. shelter and care
and never things to thank father or
mother.
Love of good things to eat is not
wrong especially for growing boys
and girls, but one should not live
to eat but eat to live. To have a
big appetite does not make us great
as Jack thought. but to do GODS
work and will truly makes US great.

Falling in line with the nation wide

board
There were fifteen in number and
represented the emblems that are used
on different occasions and the earlier
ones that have now passed out of use.
Each pupil stepped to the board in turn
and explained one, after which one
pupil told where Uncle Sans flag fac
tory was located and something oil
the annual output, the expenditure ard
so forth. 1t was very interesting and
well worth knowing. A declamatory
exercise by the boys and girls followed
this. A good speech was then made
by Rev. Bruce Nay. substituting fol-
