Corn reached 70 cents today and oats went to 53 Wheat is quoted at $1.40. These are the highest prices that have been quoted for many years and it is a very unfortunate thing that there is so little grain in this part of the country. Many tenant farmers scarcely had enough corn to feed their stock through the winter and others had to buy. In cases like this the high price is only a torment.
A. M. Bringle, of Fair Oaks, yho •was chosen to be the assistant in tht postoffice here, came yesterday to learn something about the work. He will start regularly the first o:: the month. The office force has been handicapped by lack of help since the resignation last September of Edison Murray, who is attending Wisconsin University. It takes the government about five months to choose a successor, no matter how much he is needed, when any individual would have a man ready to step into the place of another. Young Bringle is a nice young man and should prove a valuable man in the office. He will 'be required, however, to work only 4 hours per day.

Carl Eigelsbach and Dwight Ciirnick gave fine support in their minor parts to the other characters in the scene and contributed some good enjoyment. All of the casts presented their individual parts well and praise is deserved by all. The program was introduced by the mixed quartet singing, “Who js Sylvia,” with a humorous encore, and it was concluded by an instrumental duet by Helen Leatherman and Margret Babcock.
