' " A beautiful silk quilt Is on display
in the L. W. Roes window. This
quilt was beautifully pieced by Grand
ma Wheat, 84 year« old and who waa
handicapped by her crippled hands,
and presented to Moro Red Cross. 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.
