Hattie j. Loken
Assumes Office of
County Treasurer

Mrs. Hattie J. LOken Tuesday, March
8, advanced to the post of Rtchland
county treasurer from that of deputy
in the same office where h has been
employed since 1912. She succeeds F.W.
Wilder whose fOur year term to
which an incumbent is limited by law
was concluded on that date.
Other county officers successful IN
the general election in November last,
assumed their respective offices jan
uary 3. but the treasurer, by state law,
does not assume that position until
the March following election.
Wilder has been employed in coun-
ty offices since 1929 when he be-
der the late w. A. Lee and served in
that capacity until 1890 when he was
appointed TO the office Of county
treasurer to succeed the late 0. b.
Patterson who resigned to take the
position of secretary in the reclamation
office. In 1882 Wilder resumed the
position of deputy clerk and recorder
and continued in that office until 1914
when he was elected county clerk of
court. He resigned this office in 1916
to take a position as assistant cashier
with the Richland National Bank
which he held until 1850 when he was
elected county treasurer.
Mrs. Loken in assuming the post as
treasurer to complete the personnel OF
the office has appointed Mrs. Velma
krey as DOoKkeeper TO succeed MIS-,
la Johnson who has been advanced
to fill the position of deputy vacated
by Mrs. Loken.
Mrs. Loken is thoroughly familiar
with the responsibilities of the office
of county treasurer from long expert
ence and has a highly competent and
experienced personnel.
The Wilders moved to Sidney in
1929 from FairvieW where he hac
been in the hardware business anC
prominent in local affairs for many
years. A highly competent and popu-
lar business man and county official
through a long period as a resident
of the county, he has no immediate
plans for the future. but we suspect
will do a little fishing with that sea-
son about to open and later his friends
hope to see him again in some promi-
nent occupational connection in this
business community. He is highly re-
garded and was recognized as Oh
the most efficient county officials II
the state.

tons has been delayed because of
the deep snow which has prevent
ed workers from contracting peo-
pie, but warmer weather which is
now melting the snow will make
it possible to reach these sections
soon.
The Red Cross Committee and
the Legion Auxiliary wish to
thank all those who have Joined or
contributed for their cooperation,
and particularly those who have
worked to cover their territory,
organize workers, and make their
drive a success. We know that
often one feels that he is asked
to contribute too often for vari-
Gus drives, and work on too many
projects and committees. But
without these volunteer workers
and voluntary contributions, the
cost of financing these services
would be prohibitive.
Two of the workers previously
listed were unable to work. Mrs.
Ann Schafer replaced Mrs. Ruth

There is still time for any one

F. u. Oil Co.
To Retire Stock

Manager Lloyd Radke of the
Farmers Union Oil Company of
Sidney announced that the board
of directors have approved retire
ment of outstanding stock in the
amount of SO as of December 81,
1853.
This is the second year in sue
cession that this has been done.
Last year over $4,000 was re-
turned to stockholders, and this
year about $4,000 will be dis
tributed. This makes a total of
about 1910 which has been re-
turned in cash to stockholders
since organization in 1929. All or
iginaI investments in stock have
been retired in other years so that
the present paid-in capital rep
resents savings only.
During 25 years of operation the
company has handled over three
and one-half million dollars of
supplies for their farmer patrons,
having paid to local employees in
salaries and commissions more
than $448, 000, in excess of $4,000
in property and real estate taxes,
and over 100000 in federal, state
and income taxes.
This is a record that should ap-
pear to the membership for 10y
atty; to farmers who feel that
their costs of operation are toe
high; and refute the rumors that
co-ops do not pay taxes, and that
their savings r only a piece OF
paper.
