(No, Redmond is still a dry town. It was not that.) But joking aside, if you folks want to keep in touch with the western part of the county you will have to come over here once in a while. The person who has not visited Redmond since the fair is pretty nearly a back number by now. The watch party at Carl Ehret's last night was well attended. Everybody enjoyed themselves with games and other tecreation, and the New Year came all too soon. The dance given at the hotel on Christmas night by Miss Morgan was well attended and everybody had a "perfectly lovely" time. Neighbor Sroufe says that he haa sold his forty of ditch land to F.
