Well, we finally got the fever or the bug, golf bug. Last Sunday morning Dennis Criss and Jim Brown coaxed us to go out on the links and try our luck shooting at the little ball. Brown hustled us a couple of left handed clubs and we went out and we have been hardly able to do any work since as we want to be out on the links all the time. There is a certain fascina tion about the game that about every one that tries it once becomes an ar dent golfite. The first time we went around we managed to make it in 86 and the sixth time in sixty-three, so they say we are learning the game. We will not be satisfied now until we get good enough to trim John Weekes, Jim O’Donnell, Parnell Golden, Hugh Boyle and a few of the other crack members of the local club. Ten young men, residents of At kinson and vicinity, many of whom were enumerated in the complaint as Richard Do^et. al, were arrested last week on complaint of Nancy Deeder and hauled before the county court. They are charged in the complaint, with having maliciously and unlaw fully injured and defaced a dwelling house, the property of the complain ant, to the amount of $25. The com plaint further alleged that they broke a window screen and placed a dead decomposed chicken between the torn screen and the window pane. Eight of the defendants appeared in county court and gave bonds in the sum of $100 each to appear in court next Fri day when the case will be tried. From what we can learn of the case a son of the complainant in the action was mavt-ied about a month ago and the young men who were arrested were members of a serenading party on the evening when the alleged offenses were committed.

Say boys, there isn’t words in the English language to express the power that this car has. The nearest that I can come to it is, that every one of those six little valves in the head of cylinders has a kick like that of the famous Mule Maud. We have one of these cars on hand now. Come around and get a demonstration and you will be just as enthused as I am. Say, we have sewing machine needles for every sew ing machine made. Some of you ladies have been wanting a cedar oil mop.
