Many were there and had a good time shaking off lethargy brought on by the hot weather. A load of milk separators met an automobile and the milk was left seeping and the driver Whs weeping sobs. People should never cry over spilt milk and the choice of national conventions. The weather Is certainly very warm for those who wear stockings, but it seems that it has not kept the sand ridge corn from appearing in those beautiful “buffs” that have been so much admired this season.

The people have sent in a prayer to the honorable board of commissioners asking for some bridges on the new grade. Many more are praying for a fresh supply of rainwater, which is surely needed by most everybody. And some, but only a few, are thought to be praying for booze, which is needed by nobody.

There was 9300 insurance on the house. A new house will be erected as soon as possible, some lumber being already hauled. Both the old people are much worried over their loss.
