Green River Star Friday July 4, 1913

Every one is busy these days getting ready for the fourth.

Mrs. A. S. Brown is visiting in Salt I.ake.

Mr J. C. Goings and his brother E. B. Goings made a business trip to Green River this week.

Mr. Gus Hagerman made a trip to Salt Lake this week on business as watermaster for the Sheep Creek Irrigating Co.

Mrs.. Neilson went into Green River this week he expects to go on to Hot Springs for her health. She has been suffering for some time with rheumatism.   Her stay will be indefinite.

Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hagerman, Mr. and Mrs. Eisspehr and Mr. and Mrs.  Gus Hagerman took a trip up to the head gates this week for an outing, they expect to he gone a couple of days.

It is said that fishing is good at Henerys Fork and Green River.  Some fish have been caught in the ditch as far down as Connor Basin, 10 it is said.

We wish to say for the benefit of the public that no one need feel that he or she are escaping the proverbial seven years bad luck for killing a cat, by leaving them at Birch Springs for it amounts to practically the same thing.

We are informed that Mr. Carl Stoll Representing the Burnt Fork & Linwood Telephone line will be in Manila next week looking after business.  There is a project on foot to build a line from Lone Tree to Lyman which will give the valley a direct line to the outside world again. This is good news, we certainly need it. Lot the good work go on.

Speaking of telephones most of them have been disconnected at Manila. Mr. Ansel Twitchell having the only one in town. All the neighbors are under obligation to him for kindness shown in receiving and delivering messages. Better pay his yearly assessment. Friends we are willing to contribute our share at any time.   It is no more than right.

Mr. Inspire wife and daughter are making our valley a visit and seem very favorably impressed with this country. We hope they will decide to buy land and locate here. Mr.  Inspire owns a fine farm in Nebraska and may not want to break away from old associates, never-the-less, we are always glad to have people come to look over our country, and it looks well at this time.

What might have been a serious accident occurred on Friday when the team of Mr. Nels Palleson got loose from the hitching rack at Linwood and started for home. A man on horse back ran after them but his horse was not fast enough to overtake them.  They ran clear to Manila and after making the circuit of the town several times, one horse fell just in front of Charlie Hagermans home, and they were caught. Fortunately no one was in the buggy, so aside from some breakage there was no damage done, neither horse being hurt.

The Manila boys went to Burnt Fork to try a game of ball last Wednesday and got licked in great shape, but the Burnt Fork people, if they did beat us at ball certainly know how to dispense hospitality with a lavish hand. All were well entertained and stayed to the dance which was a complete success. Among the visitors from Manila who went up to see the ball game were, Mr. and Mrs. Chas.  Hagerman, Mr. and Mrs. Einspehr, Mrs. John Goinga and Miss Jessie Storms of   Linwood.    Bettor practice up boys and invite the Burnt Fork boys down to our town for a game and see if the people here also know how to be hospitable.
