Rev. j. j. McCool of st. Johns
church at Witten, was a Wood visitor
yesterday and made this office a
pleasant call.
Prof. Hamilton closed the Witten
schools last Friday and he is now liv-
ing on his farm in Cody township and
filling the fertile soil of Mellette
county.
C. E. Kell of White River passed
through Wood yesterday, enroute
home from Norfolk. He was driving a
brand new four-door Nash coupe, and
t is without question one of the finest
'ars owned in Mellette county, and
Mr.. Kell certainly can be proud of his
new possession.
