Show n IDA Nada, Utah, Jan. 19. 1920. C. D. Kieth has purchased H. M. Couches Ford. Vernon Johnson's colts are missing since the big storm. A. J. Lewis, H. Linderman and Joe Warren motored to Parowan this week. Mr. Karl Mertin of the Nada Milk Goat Farm, has had exceptionally good luck trapping lately. One of our section men were reported re-ported "down to bed rock" last Saturday Sat-urday night. Rumors are conflicting better ask Leo McGuire if there were rocks in his bod, that is perhaps nearer the truth. Gerland Lash is relieved and happy once more. He has received a letter from his mother, stating that she is recovering from her recent illness and able to bid goodbye to the nurse who has cared fur her several weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Sahm who moved to Santa Barbara, Calif, last year have returned to Utah to live. Mr. Sahm says that he prefers life on his homestead, as work in Santa l'arbara was not to be had. He s a painter by trade. Mike Schoof of Escondido, Calif, and Mr. Wright from Kansas were here last week. They are both in the market to buy some Nada land. , Their brothers own land in this vicinity vi-cinity and they feel that it is a good time and place to invest. ElVera Culmsee, who is in Denver, Den-ver, Colo, at present had the pleasure plea-sure of seeing General Pershing and Olinger's Highlanders. She is wonderfully won-derfully enthusiastic over the personality person-ality of the general and hopes he will be our next president. . . . Mrs. (',. J. Neil, in a letter to friends 1 here, writes that Mr. Neil is sick and baby Milford has not been well since their arrival in Arkansas. She says they were offered $4,000 for their land here, but refused, thinking they will wait for $10,000. They will indeed in-deed wait as there is still land to be homesteaded adjoining theirs. Practical jokes seem popular. The , school ma'am arose at an unearthly hour one morning on account of the alarm set baving been tampered with. One of the pupiln finally confessed. When the presioVnt and Congress move the clock, even the school teachers must bow to the consequences! consequen-ces! Surely there must be something i wrong with "the system" that refuses re-fuses to pay a man for his work on the railroad because he is laid up in the hospital and cannot appear personally per-sonally to sign for his check. Jan. 19, 1920 and work in November and December not yet paid. It may be safe and sane, but certainly works hardships. Sam Clint. Milford's popular lawyer, law-yer, was stranded near Nada last Sun-i Sun-i day evening and compelled to leave i his handsome seven-passenger Stude-I Stude-I baker car and take passage on No. 4 in to Milford. Mr. Martin, the gen-! gen-! ial garage man came out on No. 3 Monday morning and found the machine ma-chine entirely dry. Oil was obtained at the Nada General Store and went on his way as happy as the bad roads will allow any one to be at present. Next Monday. Jan. 26. marks the sixth anniversary of the establishment establish-ment of the Nada Post Office. Although Al-though the office does not show any phenomenal gain, considering the times, it has more than held its own. While other offices along the line in similar localities have been discontinued the Nada post master remains daggedly at his post. His hopes for the future of the desert are 1 as bright as ever notwithstanding having suffered every conceivable kind of discouragement and loss since the establishment of his residence in 1918. |
