Nuxoll of Clarkston was a business visitor in the city the first of the week. Of course the business end of his visit did not amount to much but it was more to ——well just to come to Cottonwood. Herman Funke jr. left Cot- tonwood Tuesday morning for Cheyenne, Wyoming where the} Funkes will reside in the future. Mr. Funke came here from Cheyenne about a year ago to ac- cept a position with the Cotton- wood Mercontile but since leav- ing Wyoming he has been offer- ed an exceptionally good posi- tion at Cheyenne which he could not turn down. Mrs. Funke and small son expects to join Mr. Funke in about a month. Dr. Orr was overheard to re- mark the other day “that this is the worst week I ever put in in Cottonwood” and the cause of it all is the absence of his Buick car which he was compelled to leave in Spokane recently on ac- count of the roads béing block- aded with snow. It does noe seem natural to the natives to see the doctor walk. He per- haps travels more miles in a car than any other person in the county. The Rev. Fr. DuPont of Grangeville spent Monday in Cottonwood as the guest of friends.

It is the sincere desire of his friends that he will receive the relief sought. Carl Florin, who was shot in a scuffle with Marshal Crea at Grangeville last Wednesday evening was a passenger on the Grangeville-Lewiston train pas- sing through Cottonwood Thurs- day morning for outside points. Rumor has it that the city of Grangeville will be the defen- dant in a law suit resulting from the gunshot wound, The Leggett Mercantile Co., served steaming hot coffee last Saturday and made many friends by this friendly act. The day was cold and the coffee was appreciated. Mrs. Williams did the serving as well as the mak- ing and proved that she knows how to make a good cup of cof- fee as well as to direct a minstrel for she is equally proficient in either role. They estimated that at least two hundred fifty per- sons were served Saturday. Mrs. Robert Pugh of Grange- ville was a guest at the George Medved home Sunday. Mrs. M. M.

Joe Nuxoll who has _ been spending the past six weeks in Lewiston returned home Satur- day evening.

The Fricks expect to get located in their new home by March first. held in Spokane last week. The boys say they learned many fine points regarding the lum- ber business. The convention was attended by 500 Jumbermen from all section of the north- west. W. A. Ferguson, who recently sold his barber shop to Ben Terhaar, expects to leave Satur- day for his ranch on the Joseph Plains where he will round up his livestock and drive them overland to his new ranch on the Snake river below Lewiston. Mrs. Ferguson and daughter are visiting with relatives in Lewis- While some business houses report times a little slow this does not prove to be the case with Cottonwood’s two garages. Overhauling jobs are coming to the Service Garage and the Cot- tonwood Garage from evéry sec- | tion in the county. Cottonwood has long had the reputation of having the best mechanics in the county and this fact is proven conclusively by the work they receive from outside points. Dr. W. F. Orr was called to Grangeville, Saturday morning, having been called there by the serious illness of Miss Ada Sweet who is critically ill with pneumonia. Her attending physi- cian, Dr. Stockton, and Dr. Orr held a consultation regarding her case. At the present writ- ing she is reported to be im- proving and while the crisis has not yet passed the doctors hold out great hopes for her recov- ery. The Chronicle this week re- ceived a letter from L. M. Harris the well known real estate agent of Grangeville, who is spending the winter at Fresno, California and requests us to send the things he says that Fresno is a to a population of 70,000 at the present time. All three of his sons, Harold, Lee and Basil, are located there and doing well. Mr. Harris plans to eventually lo- eate there himself. Henry H. Wassmuth, of the Greencreek section, recently re- turned from a visit to his old home at Effingham, IIl., where he spent some six weeks visiting with relatives and old time friends. While in the east he said he was on the go continu- ally and everyone there wanted to know something about the west, Financial conditions there are very good according to Mr. | Wassmuth and he attributes this to diversified farming and small farms. Up to the time of leaving Effingham winter condi- tions were ideal. One thing that impressed Mr. Wassmuth was the absence of travelers as coming and going he found the + > live city and it has grown from a population of 30,000 in 1920 main line trains almost empty.
