Joseph Fillipi of Leigh was attending to some business matters and visiting relatives.
    He has recently purchased a farm in Thurston county and is making arrangements to move onto the same.

David Hefti and family left for their new location on a farm a few miles from Lindsay.
    The major portion of Dave's life has been spent here and to him Clarkson always seems home.
    His many friends wish him and his family success and contentment in their new home.

Peter Zak is having a building erected of [sic] the Clarkson mill to be used as a live stock office.
    He will also build yards, erect a large shed, and put in a pair of scales to enable him to handle his stock business to better advantage than has been possible in his present quarters.

The school in the Wells district, taught by Miss Bertha Bukacek of this place, has been closed for the present on account of two cases of smallpox in the neighborhood.
    Mrs. John Cech and her mother have the disease in a very mild form and the home has been quarantined by Dr. Allen the attending physician.
    It was thought wise to close the school as some of the children in the Cech home are pupils and have been in attendance.

Miss Mary Teply, who has been in ill health for some time, was taken to an Omaha hospital this morning for treatment, her mother and brother, Jos. R. went down with her.

Carl Hoff and wife moved down from Boone county last week to make their home on the Henry Hoff farm in Midland precinct.

Mike McInerny loaded a car of goods and he and his family have taken their departure for Wayne where they invested in a home and intend to take up their permanent residence.

Will Roether took his departure for Twin Falls, Idaho, whither he went to look after his property interests.
    If he succeeds in disposing of his holdings there he will return to Clarkson, otherwise his family will join him in the west in the near future.

Jerry Cerv retired as carrier on rural route No. 1 out of this place after a number of years of faithful and satisfactory services to the patrons of the route.
    Jerry quit to engage in farming, having rented the Frank Wolf farm a mile east of town.
    At present Frank F. Vitek is serving on the route, and will no doubt be appointed permanent carrier as he is on the qualified list.

A number of changes were made in the location of several homes in our little city. Ed Novotny and family moved on a Stanton county farm and Ed Hobza and family moved into the Novotny residence, which they now own.
    Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Lukl have taken on their residence in the house vacated by Anton Prazak and family who have moved into the Jonas place.
    Peter Zak and family, who lived in the Jonas house, are now occupying the V.L. Prazak residence property which he purchased, and V.L. and family are located in the new home recently built by him in the west part of town.

Mrs. John Pechanc spent several days last week at Kearney in attendance at the annual state convention of the Royal Neighbors, the ladies' auxiliary of the M.W.A.
    She went as a delegate from the local camp, and in appreciation the members of the organization called at her home, amply provided with refreshments of all kinds, escorted her to the Z.C.B.J. hall, where the home camp, M.W.A., was in session, and took them by surprise also.
    The latter hastiliy brought their business to a close and adjourned to receive their guests and the guest of honor. The hall soon presented an entirely different appearance after the ladies took charge and an excellent supper was served.

Friends are in receipt of cards announcing the marriage, on Monday, March 6, of Miss Irma Deborah Sadilek and Frederich F. Mundil.
    The ceremony took place at Lincoln, and the young couple expect to visit at Omaha, Clarkson and other points in the state before going to Linwood, where the cards state they will be "at home" after April first.
    The bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank J. Sadilek of Crete, the family being well known here as they have visited here on several occasions.
    The groom, a son of J.M. Mundil and wife of this place, needs no introduction at our hands as he spent all the early years of his life here. He is an excellent young man, cashier of the Farmers and Merchants bank of Linwood, and is worthy of the high esteem in which he is held.
