Sidewalk building has finally start
cd in Hollis, after a considerable dis-
cussion.
The Harmon County Chamber of
Commerce has made ui appropriation
to build a walk from Jhe tlj* property
line of the railroad company at the
depot north to Broadway on Sixth
street, and it is understood that walks
will be build in front 'of property Tyest
on Broadway where no walks now
exist, connecting up'witb, a cement walk
from the business section of the city
to the depot. It is understood that the
railroad company will build a walk
from the depot to their property line.
Marc* Resident, Walks
At the same time work was started
on the v/alk to the depqt it is announced
that residents of the Gardnc: & Jones<
addition living on G Avenue will have
a walk built north on that avenue ro
the Doctor Hopkins residence at the
corner of First street end G. Avenue..
which will make a complete walk from
that section of-tj^c town to the business
section. . v. - •

Why should Hollii not have a band?
Inquiry by a reporter for The pomi-
Herald discloses the fact that there are
a number of musicians here—no doubt
enough could be found to,make a very
crcditablc band. Among those who
ploy different instruments, and win
could be relied upon to give the neces-
sary time and effort in making such
an organization a success are A. A.
Baldwin, Herschel Prather, T. O. Lind-
sey, Verner Briscoe, Andrew Baltan and
S. D. Carson. No doubt there are a
great many others in and around Hol-
lis who play some instrument and who
would gladly join a band.
Possibly a little encouragement by the
Chamber of Commerce, in the way «of
the 'purchase of instruments that are
lacking, would be an inducement for the
musicians to get together.

Decoration Day Observance
Decoratioji Day will be officially observed by fcha
Cemetery Association on Monday. May 31st, at the Ceme-
tery, in a most commendable way.
All men are asked to be iat the cemetery at 4:00
o'clock with a hoe or spade, and assist in removing the
weeds and preparing the ground for flowers. The ladien
will bring flowers or flower seed to plant. The evening
will be given over to a labor of love in beautifying the
cemetery. At 3:00 o'clock a lunch will be served, the
ladies serving the lunch. Ice 4old water will be served
during the afternoon while the men are working.
While the banks and some of the business hou3e3
will be closed during the day, f>thers will remain open,
and it is asked that all clo3e at 4:00 o'clock so that the
business men and clerks can assist in the work at the
cemetery.
The idea of spending a couple of hours Monday
evening in beautifying the cemetery, and asking all citi-
zens to assist, was originated by thp Civi<*League, and is
a.most commendable one. It is hoped that the people
of Hollis in general will show public-spiritedness enough
to respond to the call that is made by the ladies through
The Post-Herald.
FORMER SCHOOL MAN
GOES INTO BUSINESS
J. C. Barnett, Superintendent of
Gould Schools Past Year
To Write Insnrance
J. C. Barnett. superintendent of the
Gould schools the past term, has decid-
ed to locate at Gould permanently, and
will engage in the insurance business,
writing both crop and life insurance,
as appears from announcements in this
issue of The Post-Herald. He stated
to a Post-Herald reporter that he might
engage in real estate and also handle
loans later.
Mr. .Barnett is a comparatively new
man in Harmon county, but during the
past year has made himself well-known
[ and has become popular with a large
circle of people in and around Gould.
He is a young man with energy and will
undoubtedly be a success in the line he
has chosen.

VINSON NOT UNANIMOUS
AGAINST A COURT HOUSE
S. A. Russell Believes in Forget-
ting The Past
"I am not sure, but I don't believe
that the sentiments expressed in the
letters written from Vinson about tlje
court house situation express the sentt-
ments of the majority of the people
across the river.'1 Those are the words
of H. L. Russell, one of the substantial
citizens of that section, who was in Hol-
lis last Saturday on business. "I was
opposed to the division of the county
at the time the,division tqok place,'
continued Mr. Russell,, "but that is a
•thing of the pa>t. When the div(sion-
ists won, I said that We have a county,
—and its my county. I'm for Harmon
county first, last anij all the time.' I
think it is time we were forgetting the
fight of nearly ten years ago. I be-
lieve in looking forward and not back-
ward. If the majority of the people of
the county want a court house they
should have it."
Mr. Russell said that everything over
tions are that bumper crcps c? every
ducription will' be raised this year.

and profitable upland farm.
Four years ago Bland had a little
money to invest in a farm, He could
not afford to buy bottom land, so he
bought upland. He decided ha must
raise as much of his living as possible
Milk cows and bogs were made the
principal parts of the farm business!
Bland overcame the tick handicap with
his cattle and made them show a.profit,
He forced the thin soil to produce for
hltji. His pigs waxed fat on the. crops
he grew. Neighbors laughed at his lit-
tle jersey cows, but they sobered up
when he showed them his milk chocks.
Bland made more money out of his 20
cows, according to the story o' his ex-
periences in The Oklahoma Farmer,
than a neighbor made out of L10 head
he had.
. . | Bland had ,32 hogs. He grew them
::^,nt01 without any grain. He fed corn at
g "$1.5,0 .i bushel during the fattening
period. Bland charged the ho?;.; with
