Work has begun on the road lying on the east line of the fish hatchery grounds.  This road has been very little traveled up to this time caused by the fact that no work has been done upon it.  Men are now at work grading and putting in culverts.  Two large steel tubes were taken out from Glenwood last Monday and put in place near the Northwest corner of the fish hatchery grounds for culverts.  The county has appropriated money for work on this road and when it is finished will undoubtedly be used a great deal by Reno people who come to Glenwood.

Little Richard Toombs of near Elbow Lake, a nephew of H.J. Berry, had the misfortune on the Fourth of July of being injured by a cannon cracker.  The cracker had been lighted but did not go off.  Richard placed it in a pile of sand and when he tried to light it the cracker went off blowing the powder and sand in his face and eyes.  It is thought that his eye sight will not be lost.

Confirmation exercises were conducted by Rev. Andrew Olson Sunday in the school house by Skak Barsness.  His farewell sermon to his congregation was a sermon that will long be remembered by his flock as it was one of the most inspiring sermons we have heard him give yet.  For the seven years he has worked faithfully among us, gaining friends everywheres who will miss his absence greatly.  At this time of writing we don't know who will take his place but we are sure we can find few who can fill the place as well as he did.
