The Thurber people practice sanita-
tion in the grocery store, for it is real-
ized that sick people are of little value
to a community, and it is known that
filthy flies crawling over bread and cakes
produce sickness and death. The sani-
tary cake and bread cases installed in
the grocery store exclude flies.
Wolf Hunt.—At Selden on April 27
T. J. Schrimsber found a wolf den and
captured eight'wbelps, and next- day
Omer Harris came with his wolf hounds
and Coke Floore and 20 others joined in
a big chase after the old wolf. Uncle
Gus Davis managed to get a shot at the
animal and it is believed he crippled it,
and the dogs soon caught it, after a very
exciting race. Later the dogs jumped
three others, and C. G. Funk broke one’s
leg and wounded the other, but the dogs
lost the trails, and the chase
ended. The broken-legged / wolf has
since been seen.
The Huckabay Commercial School will
open next Monday morning in the pub-

filled with the friends of the bride, for
she grew to womanhood in this city,

she is held in this community.
