Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Miller visited
relatives and friends in West Den
mark, Wis, Sunday:
VIM. L. Smith and family have
moved from their farm, northwest of
town, to the Fred Olesen farm, five
miles southeast of town.
Rasmus Pedersen left Saturday for
Lake Norden, S. D., where he plans
to spend the winter at the home of a
daughter.
Hans c. Jorgensen and Chris Han
sen are (between showers) erecting
a large modern barn for Glenn Sebald
near Sandstone.
Miss Esther Krogh came from Min
neapolis for a weekend visit at the
home of her mother, Mrs. Chris
Krogh.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hjalmar Petersen
and daughter Karla and Mr.. and Mrs.
Robert G. Swartzell, all from Mime
apolis, were weekend guests at the
Svend Petersen home.
At the Young Peoples society meet
ing Sunday evening at the assembly
hall the annual election of officers
resulted as follows: Arid Frederik-
sen, president; Jens Lund, vice presi-
dent; Clara Sandahl, secretary; Ruby
Petersen, treasurer; and Ethel Jensen,
director.
Alvin Leroy Petersen, son of Mr.
and Mrs. Peter D. Petersen, one of
the 1941 high school graduates here,
was in Duluth over the weekend to
enlist in the U. S. Coast Guard. His
application was accepted and he left
Wednesday for the state of Washing
ton where he is to receive three
months of training after which he will
get into actual service.
At the regular Legion post meeting
Monday evening Manford Nelson was
selected as hall manager. Thus any,
one who desires to rent their build
ing should apply to him. 1t was also
decided to again sponsor their annual
stag party and dinner on October %,
and likewise the local post will spon-
sor the annual Armistice day program
which will as usual be in the D. B. S.
hall on the 18th of November.
The new state law relative to auto
license plates is radically different
from former years. Application for
your 1912 plates must be made be-
fore November Is, 1941, but the plates
must not be put on the car before
January /, 1912. All cars must car
ry license plates for the current wear
Thus it appears that if you happen
to be driving during the night of De-
cember 81, you will have to stop at
exactly midnight and put on the new
plates; and likewise if you are in
bed in reasonable time, you will like
ly have to get up at exactly midnight
and change plates to avoid breaking
the law. Probably the lawmakers
can explain it otherwise.

Will Collect Paper.

At a recent meeting the Askov Boy
Scouts, under the leadership of Mar
vim c. Peterson, decided to collect
waste paper in this community, which
they will put up in bales and thus
raise funds for their contemplated
camping trip next summer.
The plan calls for house to house
routes in the village, probably every
other week, and possibly daily route
to the business places. The Scouts
hope that each one will cooperate
with them in saving their waste paper
in a suitable container so that it will
be easy to collect.
The local unit has IA members and
they meet every Saturday evening
in the American club room. The unit
is sponsored by the American Legion
post and those in charge say that
every boy IL years and over is in
vited to become a member.
