L. L. Wiprut had a siege of la
grippe last week, and Saturday
was absent lrorn his accustomed
station at the bank.
C. G. Griffa, who was janitor at
the Normal building for several
years, recently resigned, his place
fceiDg filled by a Mr. Ilerren.
Ve would ask our corresnon
dents to send in a nart of their
items about Saturday, and then la
ter in the weeit. As it is now the
last of the week finds us without
news matter while on Wednesday
we are covered up. Send in two
letters a week, and this would en
able the publication of more news
every week.
We regret to lose our excellent
news gatherer at Parker, Mrs. U,
W. Swink. She was winner of the
last contest, and Las lead the race
po far in this contest. Aside from
this point of view, Mr. and Mrs.
SWink are jnterestinir neonle r,.!i
able and energetic in their business
relations. A consolation of their
departure is to be found in the
fact that they are entering into a
splendid paying business in Linn
county. Our very best wishes go
with them.
