On completing the purchase. Mr. Boekum set out on the return journey to Germany. He said in departing that he would send out a man and wife to occupy one of the homes on the farm. and he would also return with his wife and family to take up residence in the other house. He will also bring out some livestock of good pedigree. This is the first purchase of land of such an extent made by emigrants in the Lucknow district. and people are speculative as to whether it is the fore- runner of additional such purchases.â€" Hanover Post.

Afâ€" erwards all the boys jumped out of the car and ran in all directions. The traffic officer took after the lad who had thrown away the bottle and man- aged to outrun him.
