CASS COUNTY COURT HOUSE
RANKS WITH THE VERY BEST
That I lie present court house is
among I lit bc-l today in Ihe .-late
of Nebraska was einced yester
day when I''.. .1. llnbinsiPii, .stale
examiner of county treasurers,
was in Ihe city, and while at the
court house the question, "llowj
do you think ('ass county's court
house' lines up with Ihe oilier
county buildings in the stale?"
was asked him. Mr. Ilobinsou re
plied that, lie considered Ihe court
house in "Ibis ciiy io rank among
Ihe llr.sl twelve in the stale and
Dial I here were few counties that
could boast of as handsome a
building or one that stood the
wear ami tear in such splendid
shape and that the citizens of the
county ought to be proud of their
building in this city. Mr. Robin
son is a man whose work makes it
necessary fin' him to visit the
different court houses through
out the stale and he is in a good
position to judge of the condition
of the different buildings and his
statement that the courl house
here is in excellent shape ought
lo put an end lo the wild-eyed
reports that have been circulated
in regard to the delipadated con
dition of the building. Only a
few of the larger counties, such
as Douglas, Hall and Dodge, pos
sess county buildings any finer
than Ihe Cass county court house,
and it has been a great pride to
the taxpayers for years that Ihe
beautiful building in this city was
one of Ihe best in the stale.
from Ihe
tornado in Omaha Sunday was Dr.
Hoy Dodge, a son of Mr. and Mrs.
(leorge Dodge of this city, whose
borne lay in the edge of the, storm
swept, district in west Omaha. The
house was badly damaged by Ihe
storm and was almost shaken off
the foundation, but fortunately
Ihe worst of Ihe storm avoided
them. The garage belonging lo
the doctor was demolished and his
touring car suffered very severe
ly, having Ihe wind shield and
guards broken off, as well as a
number of minor damages. The
doctor, who had been kept up Ihe
night before milking calls, had
retired to his room lo take a rest,
when the fury of the storm broke
in upon them, breaking the win
dows in Ihe room, and Dr. Dodge
received several cuts on the face
from the Hying glass, lint it is
most fortunate that he and his
wife were not dealt with more
severely, as other daces in the
same neighborhood were lorn up
in ery bad shape.

parents of Mrs. Dodge, returned

.Members of Ihe National Con
gress of Mothers who reside in
the Disirict of Columbia have
adopted for the social conduct of
boys and girls a set of rules that
will pme wholesome if they are
enforced. Orcatcr simplicity in
the dress of girls, limiting the
duration of evening entertain
ments so as not to continue later
than midnight, and prohibiting
entertainments that interfere with
school work are a few of the
regulations to govern. If to these
were added rules specilically en
forcing greater simplicity and
economy in school commence
ments ami then if all of them
were adopted throughout the en
tire country, the reform would be
a laudable one indeed.
Children of the, rich, in their
efforts to distinguish themselves
by costly and ostentatious dress
al commencements rather than by
proficiency in scholarship, set an
example which poorer children,
surfeited with false pride, en
deavor to ape. Especially is this
true of smaller communities. The
real significance of graduation is
thus lost sight of and 1he event
becomes merely a rivalry in the
exhibition of foppishness which
does not mean anything and which
most people cannot afford.
In the matter of extravagance
of school commencements, as
well as in the mailers sought to
be regulated by Ihe mothers of Ihe
District of Columbia, parents are
wont lo be loo indulgent and to
defer loo readily to the wishes
and desires of I heir children. It
is one of. the grave misconcep
tions on the pari of Americans
that it is the duty of parents lo
burden themselves unduly for
their children's sake and to over
look the fact that children are'
under reciprocal duties lo par
ents. More necessary lo a whole
some and successful life are
habits of reasonable self-denial
lliau extravagant notions of dress
and personal indulgence. Too
frequent ly, however, parents fail
to inculcate this virtue, and Ihe
le-1 penally for the failure must in
most cases eventually be paid,
either bv I lie foolish parents
I heinselves or, in later rars, by
the children whose pockelbooks
are inadequate, to meet their high
llnv.i! ideas of propriety.
