PAGE TWO - GONVICK PLANNING TO ERECT BUILDING 'FOR CIVIC PURPOSES Returned Service Man Given Legion Burial by Clear- brook P was (Special to Piony28,; Clearbrook, Feb. 12.—hit. and Mrs. Anton Joten returned fppm Chicago; 111, after a couple of fnonths visit with Mrs. Joten’s. brother at that place. The snowfall in the east is also very heavy and the air very cold and damp. They have not yet decid- ed whether they will purchase a com- pleted residence or build a new one. Their many friends here hope that they will decide to stay, buy some lots and make our city their perma- nent home. Mrs. A. D. Marmorine returned from Cass Lake, this state, after a weeks’ stay at that place. L. Jensen departed for St. Paul on Monday evening, where he will take in a board meeting of the Minnesota Dairy Men’s association. Mr. Jensen ijs First vice president of this asso- ciation, which has done so much good for the Dairy interests in the north- west. He expects to take a run over to Crookston the latter part of the week and take in the Farm Crops Show held there this week before returning home. A. L. Klippe, we understand, went to Pinewood last week to assist in a series of revival meetings held near Aure during the latter part of last week. At a meeting held by the Commer- cial Club at its room in the Peterson hall here Friday evening, it was de- cided. by the business men present, and the majority of them were pres- ent, that Clearbrook should not cele- brate the Fourth of July this year. ‘This, of course, refers to the village at large, but it does not mean that any other organized body located here cannot celebrate if they feel that way and want to hear the good old eagle scream. The American Legion, under the auspices of the Melvin Johnson post and the Clearbrook Cornet band can either one decide to spread the eagle, or both of them jointly for that matter. Bu that is up to them to decide and for nobody else, and in due time we expect to hear their pleasure. The good boosters over at Gonvick are getting together, closer and clos- er, and talking a community hall stronger and stronger, which they are bound to get if they persist in thier quest, as they are now on the right track and are bound to win if they keep it up. They are planning on putting up a building which will cost in the neighborhood of $15,000, and designed to meet the require- ments of community, including quar- ters for the fire department and ap- paratus; office for council and com- mercial club rooms for civic and fra- ternal organizations, and a large auditorium for a picture show, dances, conventions and public meet- ings. It would also include a public rest room for the country folks, tourists and citizens, and as one booster expressed himself “there are countless good ends to which the ‘building can be used.” It is the intention to the village to bond itself for this excellent improve- ment, which is the only successful manner in which it can be carried) forth. Another big meeting will be: held on Wednesday of this week,! when it is expected to come to a head. Herbert V. Anderson of Werne, in Eddy township, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Erick Anderson of that place, has ‘been engaged by the state in agricul- tural extension work in the Red River Valley district this winter. Amund Lee was taken to Minne- apolis last week by Dr. Stevens of Gonvick. He underwent a danger- ous operation and is now doing well and will soon be back again stronger and better than before. Christ Barud of Sinclair, has sold his fine farm to Gandin and Johnson of the same township, in fact they are next door neighbors. Price, $50 per acre. We understand that Mr. and Mrs. Barud intend to take a trip to Norway in the near future for a visit with old time friends, neighbors and relatives. Austin Hagen of Holst township is home again after a two years sojourn in South Dakota. Gustay Skarbo of Cass Lake, spent the latter part of last week calling upon old friends and neighbors here. Mrs. Olof Engen and Ruben Hoial- men, returned from Warren Friday morning, where they have been through a dangerous operation. They were feeling as good as conditions would nermit under the conditions and are fast improving. Anton Erick- son returned also with Ruth Olson, who underwent an examination and may later undergo an operation. Axel A. Anderson of Leon township under- went an operation there on-Friday. Andrew Johnsun of Winsor was a pleasant business caller here on Sat- urday. Oscar Gunderson of Fertile visited here the later part of last week with Mr. and Mrs. John Berg. Mr. Gun- derson is Mrs. Berg’s step father. He was very much pleased with Clearbrook and its surroundings. He contracted for several hundred of the celebrated Clearbrook Potato crates while here, as he intends to put in 40 acres of potatoes next year. He says their favorite potato over there is the Irish cobbler. . George Leet, after a couple of weeks visit with his cousin, Inger Stortroen, left for Bemidji the other day. He is at present in the road contracting business with his brother. They have a contract now under con- struction covering 23 miles of the Jefterson highway from near Wilton to the Clearwater county line on the west. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Johnson of Leon township, after a/couple weeks visit with relatives and friends at Black- duck and other points north of Be- midji, is back home again happy as ever. Miss Mable Thompson of Eddy township left for Duluth Saturday morning. John Eisenman and: Miss Christina Jensen, both of Neving, were married at Bagley last week. Their hosts of friends wish them a long, happy and successful term over the bellowy sea of married life. The remains of Arthur Paulson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Paulson of Leon township, arrived here from San Francisco, Cal., Tuesday morn- ing, weher he died from the “flu” a week ago Sunday. He was 23 years old. He was a volunteer in the Unit- ed States army, in which he enlisted during the big world war. The Mel- vin Johnson post of the American Legion here gave him a military fun- eral, an honor which all men under the colors are entitled to as true Americans, regardless of protests by persons no matter whom. The inter- ment took place Wednesday at the Seljird cemetery. ‘He leaves a young and sorrowing wife in that western city, besides a father, mother, sister and brother here at home. The hard stricken people have the sympathy of the entire community. Rural Route No. 4, out from here, is suffering from the “flu’’ in that both the Regular Carrier, B. A. Bag- aason and his substitute, Eddie Steen- erson, are down with 1it. Ole O. Dela tried to make the trip Tuesday. Mrs. Mae Barness, our county su- perintendent and county agent Earl Martin, held a nurried buxsiness meet- ing here Friday afternoon. - The Gonvick Trading Company un- der the management of Hardin A. Anderson of this place, will open for business at Gonvick on Friday, Febr- uary 13.~ Their slogan is “Boost for Gonvick,” a boost for Gonvick is a boost for us. Help your home town grow. Not a bad motto and worthy of consideration by all concerned. The Eddy Co-operative Creamery at Werne, held its annual meeting last week and the following officers were elected: President, John R. Rude; vice president, Ole B. Sovick; secretary and treasurer, Carl Lind- gren. Directors, Magnus Anderson, B. M. Merseth and Clans Johnson.

ETRETEIS, THE BEMIDJI PAILY PIONEER DRESS WARM AND KEEP FEET DRY Tells Rheum:m Sulferers to Take Salts and Get Rid " of Uric Acid __ Rheumatism is no respector of age, sex, color or rank. If not the most dangerous of human afflictions it is one of the most painful. Those sub- ject to rheumatsim should eat less meat, dress as warmly as possible, avoid any undue exposure and, above all, drink lots of pure water. Rheumatism. is caused by uric acidiweek. This is said to eliminate uric which is generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly, cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do dou- ble work, they become weak and slug- gish and fail to eliminate this uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoon- ful in a glass of water and drink be- fore breakfast each morning for a act quickly. | FH[[!FM a fow days qnlyFH[[!
