for touchdowns were 10 yards. 90

Better Trade Connections
adams County Record

adams County Record)
Elsewhere in this issue of the Adams County Record
there appears a story concerning the efforts Of people
residing in the vicinity of strool, Gill, and Serum, s. D.,
to secure adequate telephone service within their COM
munity and with the outside world.
This project should meet with favor on the part of
the people in this section of the country as well as with
the people who will connect up on this telephone line.
For those people who will have phones installed in their
homes it presents an opportunity for social and economic
~betterment. For the businessmen Of Hettinger it opens
an opportunity for further business. Each day a freight,
passenger, and mail truck leaves Hettinger to pass
through the territory in which the new line Is to be
erected. The result is obvious. AS the people affected
in the area take advantage of better and quicker service
the merchants Of Hettinger will profit through increased
patronage.
