Don forget the Chautauqua July 19th to 25th Burlington Messrs.

Work will commence at once. Miss Kelley's room of our local schools held their closing exercises Tuesday afternoon. There was a large attendance of visitors and the pupils of the other rooms attended in a body. H. T. Hogy is in the Twin Cities this week on business conected with his big undertaking in Montana.

Wesley Drummontl passed the tenth milestone of his young life last Fri day and in the evening about twenty of his young friends gathered at the Drummond home and proceeded to a befitting celebration of the event.

Gross' "Tin Lizzie" recently, met with what might have proved a serious accident one day this week. The pestiferous critter for some unaccountable reason, or possibly no reason at all, turned turtle and spilled its five occupants along the highway, fortunately with no results more serious than a general shaking up, together with some bruises and scratches.
