Bank robberies are not all the robberies of the present time. Some time during the vacation some ill-disposed . ' person or person^ gained entrance to £he Ostend school house and carried away the greater portion of the . kitchen furniture. For several years the teachers has served warm lunch during the winter months, but it will be necessary to have ne v plates and cups or eat on a chip. Corn husking is the talk and work of farmers now when it is not raining. In most places the corn crop is the best in several years, certainly a boon to farmers. The Ostend school has eighteen pupils enrolled. Last year there wer« three eighth grade graduates. Frank Kaiser thinks himself lucky not being in a hurry last Saturday. He was on his way to the bank when Mr. Stenger came eut on the walk and shouted, "The bank is robbed." Next time he goes to the bank he intends looking up street and down to see if there are hunters out in sight. Apples in this locality are a very short crop. The hot dry weather during the summer caused many to fall and also hindered the growth of those left. Potatoes are* fine and those that were forttoate enough to raise a crop find ready market at a good price. RIDQEFIELD Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Lynch were shopping in Chicago Thursday of last week. Mrs. M.
