BLOOMINGTON

Arthur Wilkinson, who has been
driving a truck on the Patch Grove
road job, ran into some newly dumped
soft gravel, and with the iron box of
the car, was thrown onto the ground,
the box striking him in the back. He
was taken to the hospital at Platte
vile, where it was found that in adj
dition to the heavy shock of the fall,
one rib was broken.
Present and prospective lovers of
the game of golf in this village are
laying out course on the fair
ground and forming a club to play the
game according to instructions in the
book. When Bloomington's golf club
is organized we will have to find
some means of graduating from the
village to the city class, if the club
itself does not signify such trans
formation.
r. c. Wonn and his crew are finish
ing the Patch Grove Bloomington road
job and are packing their machinery
and camp outfits today. They esti-
mated that the work would last until
about Sept L, but they have beaten
that by several days, and they lost
lot of time on account of rainy
weather. We now have one of the
best roads in this section from here
to Bridgeport and Pra. du Chen, and
