ASKOV
Friends here report that Mrs. Chas.
Oberg is improving very nicely at
Fairview hospital, Minneapolis, after
having a large tumor removed a week
ago Monday. She expects to be home
again in a few days.
The P. T. A. will present a pro
gram to the public Friday night, April
19, at 8 o’clock. The principal speak
er of the evening will be Dr. H. E.
Levin. After the program, lunch will
be served to those in attendance. The
public is cordially invited to attend.
C. W. Heilman and son, Reuben,
from southwest of Finlayscn, were
business callers in Askov Tuesday.
While in his best years Mr. Heilman
is nevertheless a pioneer of Pine
county, having spent 30 years here.
He is a breeder of Guernsey cattle and
has some good stock on his place. He
is advertising a sire for sale.
On account ol the impassable roads
the Community club membership
drive party scheduled for last night
was postponed. It is now proposed
to have it on Wednesday evening,
April 24 just one week later than the
original date and it is hoped that con
ditions will be more favorable at that
time, for it is very much desired to
have a capacity attendance.
A letter was received the past week
from F. H. Tomlinson, stating that
they had purchased a residence at
3044 Thirty-second ave. south, Min
neapolis and will move to that ad-
dress Friday. They invite Askov
friends to call on them in their new
home. It will be remembered that
the Tomlinsons were former residents
of Askov while Mr. Tomlinson was
engaged here in the interest of the
Farm Cost Accounting route.
A. F. Forsyth and Frank Devall
from Norman township, were here
Monday to take home a potato dig
ger which they purchased at an auc
tion last fall. Mr. Forsyth who has
taken to Holstein cattle the last few
years, purchased a good sire to head
his herd and is developing a fine
grade of cattle. He takes a great in
terest in his stock, likes to show them
to visitors and is naturally proud of
the herd he has developed in a few
years.
Frede Stottrup who is crippled up
with rheumatism and x confined to his
home, is so far improved that he en
joyed a little outing with his family
Sunday at the home of their neighbors,
Mr. and Mrs. Sigurd Stovring, the
occasion being Mrs. Stovring's birth
day. Mr. Stottrup seated in his wheel
chair was put on a stone boat and
with two calm horses at the head was
thus transported to the neighbors.
During the afternoon he felt well
enough to do some reading for the
friends and neighbors assembled. The
outing was much enjoyed by Mr. Stot
trup and he also felt very good the
day following. His friends were glad
to see him in such high spirits.

Speaking of
Assets—
One of the greatest assets a bank may have is the good j
will of a community. U
If the public believes in a bank's integrity and appre- I
dates its endeavors for a standard of constructive “ man-10-man ” 11
service, it has given that bank what money cannot buy but only |j
years of high ideals applied, can gain. 7|
It is our constant endeavor to treat your banking re- |
quire ments in such a way as to merit your good will. j
After all, a bank is strong, not merely because of its cap- jl
Hal and resources, the wealth in its vaults; but also because of II
the number of active, interested friends which it can number II
on its u roll-call.” " I

A Good Bargain
After we had bought our supply

we discovered a real buy in shirts
and took them, so now we want to
reduce our stock.
So during this week we offer
with each Men’s Work Shirt one
pair of Men’s Fancy Hose and be
sides with the first 50 shirts sold
we will give a pair of Ladies’ or
Children’s Shoes.
Now can you beat that?
