It w ill be auctioned next Saturday, Dec ember 21at, In front of the Roes' con fectionery at 8:90 p.m. C. G. Huis has consented to take charge of the auctioneer end and that is a guaran tee that it w ill reach an appreciative owner. Sheriff elect P. H. Buxton has ap pointed E. R. Hickson as his chief deputy and the Sherman county public may rest assured that with these two gentlemen in charge the important duties of the sheriff’s office w ill be in competent hands.lt Sheriff Buxton has experienced oonaiderable difficulty in securing a capable deputy, practically all the young men qualified for the position being in the service'of Uncle Sam, consequently he is to be con gratulated upon his success in pre vailing upon Mr. Hickson to under take the duties of the office. The new deputy is at present employed as assistant cashier in the Farmers* State Bank of Moro and is in every respect thoroughly equipped for the discharge of hia official duties in the sheriffs office. ’ b ' *, ■ „•» ’ iS A t thft annual meeting of the Moro Rod and Gun Club last week W.
