routes. Frequently cars have
been stuck in some of the holes,
but roadmen are busy now and
likely travelling will soon be more
pleasant.
p. p. Kilstofte and Jens Thorn
sen were in Rock Creek Monday
to look over the conditions for
commencing on the new school
building, In Rock Creek it was
fine weather and farmers were
busy in the fields so they were
rather surprised when returning
to Askov TO find that it had
rained hard here nearly all day.
About 40 friends and neighbors
called at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Axel Nissen, northeast Of
town, Saturday evening to spend
a social time with the newly
weds and bid Mrs. Nissen well
come in the community. A real
social time was had and the
guests also presented the Nissens
with some useful kitchen uten-
sils.

ing Monday evening at which
time they decided to all meet on

The boys also decided to have
practice twice a week hereafter
but did not set any certain eve
nings for the meetings.

white and yolk. Mrs. voetmann
used it for a family meal one day
and later when another egg of
same size was produced on the
farm it was brought TO the Amer
lean office and presented for the
editors breakfast. This latter
egg measured 81 inches around
the one way and s inches the
other way, weighing 81 ounces.
Unlike the other il had but one
shell, but two yolks.

During the electrical storm
Monday a bolt of lightning
struck Emil Fogt's house; APP
parently it was a heavy charge
as it appears that it struck the
telephone wires first and burned
them over, then followed them
to the house where il jumped
over to the lightning rods and
disappeared. In the jump the
house was somewhat damaged,
there being considerable siding
torn loose, about a thousand
shingles torn off and other minor
damages. The Fogt family was
in the house at the time and
aside from being shocked suf-
fered no injury.

Paulsen a little over seven acres
altogether which he will turn
into agricultural land. II will
beautify the village to have this
land titled and made productive
and as there is good drainage
with the county ditch it can be
made good farm land under the
able management of Mr.. Paulsen
who has done much work of that
kind in his days and still feels
too young and active not to have
something to work with.

is to be turned over to France, who
now owes us four billions which she
refuses to pay. If this extension OF

is it not provided in the contract
that Europe disarm before she gets
his money? Why Is 1t not stipu'
