and relatives. A splendid dinner was
many guests having assembled at II 100
in the forenoon The family belong to
the peoneer stock of Koshkonong, and
have contributed their full share in the
upbuilding of the settlement. They
have been active in the promotion of
every wholesome and beneficial move

integrity, hospitality and other sterling
qualities of character endeared them
selves to all who know them. One
daughter, AdelIa, died while student
at Albion academy, the other members
of the family are we'll and happy in the
old home
Mr.. Olson has been made use of in
the affairs of the township in every Of
flee except that of clerk, and held po-
sitions of responsibility and trust in the
church community. Mr.. and Mrs. Oh

the United States together with their
parents in 1852. They have lived on
their present farm since 1884. The
bridesmaid and best man at the we'd

were both present at the jubilee, and
Charley made fine address in honor
of the wedding couple. Mr.. Ristad,

neighborhood, was called on to congratu-
late MIR. and Mrs. Olson and wish them
many happy returns of their wedding
day A brother of Mr.. Olson, whose
home is in western Iowa, surprised the
family by coming down for the celebra-
ton. Altogether it was fitting OBJ

tribute to the splendid qualities of Mr..
and Mrs. o. C. Olson. A purse was
given the bride as memento of the
occasion.

The buck private, or rather the
ex-buck, is going to receive more
attention than ever he did in war
when the American Legion veteran
census begins here next week under

the man in the ranks that this CEN

nation. Instructions are from state
headquarters of the Legion to carry
out this program to the letter, and
the Legionaires of the local post are
arranging that not a residence or
office in the community will be miss

'RETRIAL MOTION
HEARD ON JAN. s
Lee Woods Would Resubmit Action In
Which Jury Gave ReinhoId Thur
Verdict for S6O3.

The date for motion for a new trial
in the case on account of Lee Woods
against Reinhold Thur was postponed
Friday until January 6 by District
Judge ]. B. Leslie. Woods sued Thur
for $1.433 for labor alleged to have
been performed. The validity of this
bill was denied and a counter claim for
$1,43O filed. Thur obtained judgment
for $6O3 at a jury trial which ended on
November 25 in Judge Leslie's depart
ment.
Woods claimed he had worked on the
Thur farm near Vaughn without pay
until the amount reached the sum sued
for. Thur held that he had entered a
contract with Woods whereby Woods
was to construct a reservoir on the
Thur farm in exchange for Thur put
ting out q crop for Woods. He holds
the crop was put in, but the reservoir,
which he would have valued at $1,10O,
was never constructed. He also sought
$3.50 alleged to have been forwarded
as loans.
The plaintiff is appealing the case
on the grounds that the evidence in the
case did not justify the verdict, that
new evidence not available at the time
OF the trial has been brought to light,
and that the jurors were induced to
assent to a general verdict and special
findings by %resorting to determination
