Fire Destroyed Residence
About 1 o'clock last Friday
night the residence and house-
hold furniture of J. F. Daineron
in West Clifton .vas destroyed by
fire.
The property was almost a to
tal loss amounting to $3,000 or
more, with $1,750 insurance,
$1,000 on the house and $750 on
furniture and goods.
Mr. Daineron had been sick
for several days and had gotten
up twice earlier in the night
to take medicine and the only
way he can account for the fire
breaking out is that he either
threw down a lighted match or
the lamp exploded after he left it
as being extingushed in the front
bed room.
The family only had time to es-
cape in their night clothing.
The Volunteer Fire Co. did
splendid work in preventing the
flames from spreading to near-
by buildings. Every fire Clifton
has demonstrates the great val-
ue of our fine water system and
the gallant tire fighters.
Mr. Dameron and family went j
to keeping house again Tuesday
in the H. K. Rea residence va- j
cated this week by C. O Cook!
and wife. i
Hut few of the men who sell
the hundred different paints in
the market know much about
them. All Devoe agents have a
1 state chemist’s certihcateftelling
i just what its made of; they know
| a good deal, not only about De-
! voe but the rest. Devoe buys
| every paint, that has any sale,
1 and analyzes it. Devoe agents
| find out all about it.
When we know what a paint is
made of, we know how it will act;
we know how far it goes, and
how long it wears.
Devoe is the standard; call it
100. The best of the rest is about
75; the worst about 35; the rest
are between. But the men who
sell them don.t know the better.
They know what the maker tells
them. That is: they know that he
tells them. They don’t know
whether he tells them the truth
or not.
The business is not conducted
knowledge; the less they
on
know, the
they are.

Married On Last Sunday.
Last Sunday evening at 8
o’clock at til*1 home of Rev. Hale
south of Glenwood a quiet, but
to many a very interesting wed-
ding took place. The contract-
ing were, Otto C. Orbeck and
Esther Valborg Estrein. The
impressive marriage ritual of the
Lutheran church was read by
Rev. G. G. Beito. The ceremony
was performed in the presence
of only the most immediate rela
tives of the bride. Miss Anna
Estrem, a sister of the bride and
Miss Edith Estrem, a niece of
the bride served as bridesmaids.
The bride is the youngest
daughter of Rev. O. Estrem.
formerly of Willmar. She is the
sister of both Mrs. Beito and
Mrs. Bale both of this county.
She is an accomplished young
lady, being a graduate of the
Douglas-Schuler school of Waco,
Texas, and was later a teacher at
the same institution. She has
also attended the Sioux Falls
Normal and the Park Region
Luther College at Fergus Falls.
The groom is a resident of Clift-
on, Texas. He came to America
from Norway nine years ago.
He attended school for some
time after which he become as-
sistant book keeper for a large
mercantile firm at Clifton. He
later became the head book-keep
er. Mr. Orbeck is a rising young
man in whom the firm for whom
he works has unbounded con-
fidence.
The newlyweds started on
their wedding trip last Tuesday
afternoon. Their itinerary in-
cludes Fergus Falls, New Lon-
don and other places in the
north. They will make their
home in Clifton, Texas, where
the best wishes for a long and
happy wedded life from a host of
friends in the North go with
them.—Glenwood Herald.
The above marriage was quite
a surprise to most of their
friends, here and was not made
know to them until the happy
couple arrived in Clifton a week
after the wedding. 1
Both the bride and groom
have many friends in and around
Clifton who most heartily join
the Record in extending con-
gratulations and best wishes for
their future happiness and pros-
perity. ______

Austin, Tex. Sept. 30. —Attor-
ney General Lightfoot is confer-
ring with his assistants today re-
garding the issuance of saloon
licenses at Amarillo despite the
decision of the state comptroller
that no more licenses shall be is-
sued. It is expected that Light-

prevent the county judge grant-
ing such licenses.
Big Rattlesnake Killed
One day last week S. B. John-
son kiliev the largest rattlesnake
ever exhibed here. Mr. John-
son and his snakeship had a bat-
tle royal—the former coming
out winneer. It was killed about
four miles east of here. He
measured 7 feet 2 bare footed and
measured 19 inches in circum-
ference, and had 21 rattles and a
button. This is strictly a dry
town.
H. M. Carr and little son of
Cranfills Gap were in Clifton the
first of the week and brought
down about fifty gallons of tine
honey and sold to the merchants
here. Mr. Carr got 325gallons of
honey this year and it is a very
tine grade. Mr. Carr is one of
those farmers that keeps busy
the year around and says he
does not have time to come to
town but once or twice a year,
this being the first trip here
since January. He made the
Record a pleasant visit leaving
$1.50 to put his dates a year in
advance.

John Tanner, who is employ-
ed as salesman for Laughridge &
Webb, one of the leading gents
furnishing house in Waco, was
here Sunday and Monday to vis-
it home folks, preparatory to
moving his wife and little daugh-
ter to Waco in a few days. John
is delighted with his new posi-
tion and wants his many Clifton
friends to call od him when in
Waco. A more honest and
straight-forward young man than
John Tanner is unknown to the
people here, and we congratulate
the firm that has employed him
on their good judgment.
