Miss Irma Cody entertained
about seventy-five persons, the
greater number of whom were
young people, at the Cody ranch
residence Friday evening in favor
of Miss Armstrong of Ogden and
Mis Rudio of Omaha. The enter
taining features -of the evening
were dancing and card playing the
large dining hall being used for
the former purpose, and the music
furnished by a four-piece orchestra,
The several large rooms were
brightly illuminated, the ladies
handsomely gowned, cut flowers
were in evidence, the music excel
lent, everyone in a happy mood,
and these with the hospitality of
the young hostess, made the evening
a delightful one. Refreshments
were served at. midnight and
shortly thereafter the guests made
their adieus.
In the Noyctnbcr issue of The

Fowler in his items Bays) The
tirn in the wheels of politics otten
drops out of puhllc service many
who by traininir and experience
have become peculiarly well fitted
to fulfill satisfactorily and accept
ably to thoi-e immediately concerned
the duties of their office. The
antipathy to a nomination lor a
third term on the part of many
pqljticintltf very .often discharges
from' t,he public service its most
efficient servants. This has been
demonstrated this fall in many
oaseo, and particularly in Lincoln
county, whose superintendent, Miss
Bertha Thoelecke. writes to the
state superintendent ' expressing
her appreciation of some words of
commendation relative to her work
and reports and her regret at being
unable to continue in the work.
She says further: "Although the
hardships and privations, exposure,
and danger have been great, there
l much more of regret than of
relief in the prospect of a change ''

coyote in this manner.
