Show 10 YEARS AGO ... From the Files BURTNER Delbert Searle is the new partner part-ner of Will Jenkins in the butcher butch-er shop here, he having purchased purchas-ed the interests of Rob Jenkins. In a few weeks we expect it will be Delta instead of Burtner. The Delta Irrigation Company want that name,- the railway people peo-ple have no objections, and we expect ex-pect the post office department will be satisfied with it. We have given it that name on the new map we are publishing for the specai eaiuon. The Hinckley basketball teams came up last Saturday night and beat the home team at the local sport. The lineup was, Hinckley: L. Whitehead, W. Wilkkis, G. Talbot, Tal-bot, F. Theobald and W. Robson. For Burtner was G. Billings, N. Gardner, O. Mahew, A. Humphries and T. Brower. The game was played swift and fast till the beginning of the second sec-ond half, when Whitehead got struck in the eye by Billings elbow, el-bow, that delayed the game 'for about ten minutes, but the boys went after them and beat the home team by a big score. HINCKLEY A couple of our popular young people - - Miss Annie Hilton and Mr. Ray S. Bishop - - were married at the Salt' Lake Temple Feb. 23, 1911. They will give their reception recept-ion Wednesday March 8th. We un- derstand they are going to make their home at Burtner to which place they expect to go in the near future. In this union Hinckley ward will lose two good workers, as Miss Hilton is president of the young ladies and Ray is a teacher of the theological class of Sunday School. The above item was sent in about two weeks ago, but as it has never been published, I suppose the mail miscarried and all the correspondence sent with it was lost. Mr. Emery Peterson is in town today selling Singer Sewing Machines. Mac-hines. He is the selling agent for this district. ABRAHAM I am pleased to report that the mud has all dried up, and the mail man can again come in his buggy. Last week he had to ride horseback horse-back the roads were so bad. The Hogan brothers have dressed dres-sed and shipped 20 hogs, averaging averag-ing 200 lbs. each to the Salt Lake market in the last week; , LEAMINGTON ' - Watch Leamington grow.
