wife! When the hay is flying thick
and fast, and green ribbon flutters
from a tousled head. no one would
dare to guess (whO did not know that
a fair maiden from the Hilly regions
of Upper Minnesota was out acquir-
ing a beautiful sun tan-and many
little bruises. A load cOmpleted-in
what style!-and ready for the stack.
But too much energy is often fatal.
It's not so pleasant to slip off load
of hay down to the merciless ground.
And it's still more provoking to dis
cover faint twinkle creep into the
eyes of onlookers. But time is the
healer of wounds-and sparklers de-
light the eye!
You haven't forgotten, the onrush
of women upon the.J. H. Hogan home
on Thursday, July II? When this
reaches some of you the event will
have been one of the past-gone, but
not forgotten.
Imagine the audacity of some peo-
pie? To coax little flame into be-
ing to the delicious scent of roasting
weiners and tOasting marshmallows
directly beneath a warning sign: Get
a burning permit before starting a
fret" And for tired legs, two miles
is long distance!
A few of the members of the Amer
lean Legion of Askov, brought up
their Junior baseball team Tuesday
evening to play a seven-inning game
with the local Junior talent. Happily,
the boys surprised the invaders, and
administered them a defeat which
they hope to duplicate at Askov next
Tuesday evening. If you really enjoy
good game of baseball, you'll surely
not miss this little affair next week.
The game starts at approximately $50
p. m.
Although we didn't have time, or
rather neglected, to get this bit of
news into the paper the last time,
perhaps you will have noticed that
Patty and Margaret Hogan are hold
ing their heads just a wee bit higher.
Don't be alarmed; it's only the result
of trip to the dentist at Sandstone.
Mrs. Olaf Nelson is driving blue
Tudor sedan recently purchased from
]. H. Hogan. Not to be without convey
ance, Mr.. Hogan is sporting tan
Tudor of the 1880 model. In these
beautiful summer months, and es-
pecially at periods like this when the
moon filters down through the clouds
with such enhancing sweetness,
everyone that can afford it ought to
have one of these snappy, little cars
with which to enjoy life.
VIM. Paddock. former resident of
Kerrick, has just returned from the
DakOtas, and is trying to transact
a little real estate business.
Don't be discouraged! This cOun-
try is not so bad after all. In spite
of all we've heard about lack of pros
perity we discover people moving into
our territory just when We expect
them all to leave. Mr.. Keyport and
family of Minneapolis, have taken pos
session of the w. H. Koehler place.
Mrs. E. B. Nolan of South Superior,
transacted business between trains
Monday.
At the annual meeting of the Ker-
rick school, Roy Clewitt was chosen
to take the place of Mrs. Kline, whose
term had expired, and NJ McGrath
was chosen to succeed himself after
A. Golden who had tied him, Is to Is,
had withdrawn. A levy of 10 mills,
which is the same as was paid this
year, was voted. The financial con-
dition of the districts is not so good
because of the failure of many to pay
their tax, but conditions seem to be
improving and it is hoped it will
be easier going shortly.
w. Paddock. who resided here sew
eral years ago and moved to Wessing-
ton Springs where he had large trac,

the Renfro place just west of town
