Besides the style parade and the old customs parade held in conjunc tion with the Fourth of July celebra tion here, there was an old fashioned dance in the evening. The crowd svould have been even larger but for the rush season of the farmers in getting their wheat cut and in the shock or through the combine and to the elevator. Ray Chriswisser, who put out one hundred and fifty acres of wheat last fall was well rewarded as the wheat did fine and in many places over the large field yielded 40 bushels and up ward to the acre, all of it of excel lent quality.

Jerome St. John was in town on Monday making arrangements for the threshing of his hundred acres of wheat, which he had just gotten harvested an in readiness for the threshing machine.

He was discovered by Edward Knabe. During the con tinued search he was called for by name repeatedly but only once and that shortly before his discovery was he heard to respond. Mr. Knabe car ried a lantern, which shed a bright light in all directions about him, as he pressed forward and as a result was able to spot the lad, who had become tired out and lay down in a ravine. It was very fortunate that the little fellow was found and did not have to remain in the woods over night. Properly Celebrated the Fourth The Fourth of July, birthday of the nation, was celebrated in fine manner in Nehawka last Saturday afternoon and evening, with many amusements, under the auspices of the American Legion and the ladies of the Legion Auxiliary. The cele bration drew large crowds here from all over the county and many from outside the county as well. There were many stunts and games which helped to amuse the people and the day went off very smoothly. The parade was one of the inter esting features of the day's enter tainment and took the spectators back to the days when a real Fourth of July celebration was held in ev ery village and hamlet in the coun try. The doll parade was another of the many amusing features. The one that drew much attention and was finally awarded first prize was that of Mrs. W. H. Kruger, who was dressed to imitate a little maiden with her doll carriage and doll there in. Another feature was the pet pa rade, which was a most interesting display of pets of all kinds. We were unable to get the names of winners, of whom there were several selected for their uniqueness or pleasing ap pearance. Floats representing many of the Nehawka business houses al so had a place in the parade and were lollowed by many on foot. The business firms participating included the Sheldon factory, Sheldon's store, Ilerbie Kuntz, Boyd's cream station and the unconquerable Nehawka Fire Department. Herbie Kuntz's anvil could be heard ringing as he pound ed out his living on it with a heavy blacksmith's hammer.
