John Wood, with his trucks, has
been hauling gravel for the hard sur
facing of the roads northwest of
Murriock, having a portion of the con
tract. They are having a fine time
for the getting of the work done.
Carl Hansen and wife were over
to Elm wood on last Tuesday, where
they were doing some trading and
incidently were listening to the clos
ing game of the world series. They
had shelled and delivered their last
year's corn to the Wabash elevator,
which wa3 shipped out the following
day.
Home from the Games
Messrs. J. C. Browne, I. C. Me
Crorey and Herman L. Bornemeier
who were over to St. Louis for the
three world series ball games played
there between the Cardinals and the
Detroit Tigers, returned home last
Monday, well pleased with the games
they had witnessed, but were not ex
pecting the result to turn out as it
did in the last two games at Detroit,
especially the final one on Tuesday in
which the Tigers were shut out.
John C. Browne says no one can
tell how a world series is going until
the final out of the final game has
definitely settled the matter and it
sure looks like John is right.

Enjoyed Very Fine Meeting
The Bible school rally, which was
the feature of the three Bible schools
the Wabash, Callahan and Evan
gelical at Elmwood was a great sue
cess. There were representatives from
Elmwood at the meet who made ad
dresses, but the Wabash school, com
prising some twenty-one members and
accompanied by Sherman Hai'Jaway,
was the one which created the great
est interest, although there was also
plenty of interest at the Callahan
church, where they have a large
school and where everybody takes a
good deal of interest in the work ot
the Bible school. Sherman Ilardaway,
of the Wabash school, in a splendid
address, told of their work and of the
success which is coming to this band
of Bible school workers.
The rally day was well worth while
and was enjoyed by all.
Entertained the Ladies Aid
Mrs. L. R. Standley was hostess to
the Ladies Aid society of the Wabash
church and entertained the workers,
who are always doing all they can to
assist in the paying of the expenses
of the church and promoting its in
terests. After looking after the busi
ness matters claiming their attention,
they enjoyed a fine social session that
was climaxed with the serving of a
delectable luncheon by the genial
hostess.
Married at the Farm
On last Saturday Rev. W. A. Taylor
was called to the farm of Eugene Col
bert, where Howard Eugene Colbert
and Miss Nye Crozier had prepared
the home, for they were to be united
in marriage and Eugene Colbert had
gone to Union for Rev. Taylor to
perform the marriage ceremony which
was to be a private one, attended by
only the families of the contracting
parties, Eugene Coljert and family
and Henry Crozier and family, par
ents of the bride and groom.
The marriage lines were read by
Rev. W. A. Taylor and the newly
weds were at home and began house
keeping immediately.
They received the congratulations
of all, after which a very fine wed
ding supper was enjoyed. It had been
the intention to have Mrs. W. A. Tay
lor present, but on short notice she
Mr. S. S. Davis was the speaker
on the Columbus Day program held
at the high school Friday morning
under the auspices of the student
council. Always an interesting
speaker. Mr. Davis proved to be a
popular and entertaining orator for
the occasion and succeeded effective
ly in mixing a fund of wit and humor
with the fine thoughts which he
brought to the student body.
Building his thoughts around the
theme of Columbus In keeping with
the spirit of the day, Mr. Davis call
ed the students attention to the
needs of vision, the spirit of adven
ture, co-operation and the creation of
good habits as they continued ou
the voyage of life, closing with the
appeal that no matter where they
may find themselves, "to be the best
of whatever you are."
The morning group of the Girls'
Glee club under the direction of Mr.
Griffin was heard in two numbers..
"My Rosary" and "Mighty Lak a
Rose." The students were glad to
hear Margaret Hirz again in a series
of popular song3 with Miss Garrett
as accompanist.
Howard Hirz, student chairman
presided, and the committee on the
program was composed of Geraldine
Grlfl'in. Richard Yellck and Rachel

Western Potatoes Are Affected by

Parts of northern Nebraska have
a little corn and a fair corn fodder

with 234,698.000 bu., last year and
the 5-year average of 230,002,000
