We understand there will be de-
bate between ]. e. Therrien and HAL
mar Petersen at Sturgeon Lake Fri
day night. This should be worth
hearing. These gentlemen are both
we'll qualified to debate on present
day topics as they are both we'll in
formed and voters should be able to
get lot of good from their talks.
Mr.. Eungm of the State Department
of education, inspected the school
Tuesday. Several minor criticisms
are reported in way of books and sup
plies. This seems to be the case
every year they come. Our school
district shows that just about 1870
of the land is now paying taxes, in
other words, out of three dollars we
get one, and it's hard to meet state
requirements on that kind of an in
come.
The four upper grades had party
Monday night and the high school
bunch Tuesday night. Lots of fun.
1t is reported that the J. D. Curry
farm was sold this week; we have not
had the report verified at this writing
We understand the deal was handled
by the local bank and that sale was
made to party from North Dakota.
While delivering cream at the
Moose Lake creamery this week, Ed
Hanson felt very sharp pain in his
leg near the ankle; it almost made
him see black for a while and the
funny thing about it is that he can't
see what hit him. There was a stone
lying on the ground below the plat
form that must have been thrown.
Well, anyway, Ed is still o. X.
An audit is being conducted of the
Duquette Cooperative creamery COM
pany books. This is being supervised
by Art Rentz, the Land OLakes man
from Mora.
A number of candidates were around
this week. Marvellous how many good
men there are just before election.
Just too bad some of them sling mud.
1t gets no one anywhere and the
worst singer usually gets the fewest
votes.
III you want your cows tested in the
next test, which will be very soon,
either write DR.. Nyline at Hinckley
or put your name on the list at the
kerrick Bank or at the Duquette
creamery.
