Strictly High Glass Legiti
mate Banking!
This is the policy you will find among all the conservative,
i liable city hanks, and is also true of 1 ho high class hanks of the
smaller towns and villages, where such lianlis really have the
interests of their lriends and customers at heart.
It has always heen the policy of the Bank of Murdock to con
duct a first class high grade legitimate hank, and to confine its
business strictly to commercial hanking, never permitting its name,
or allowing its officers to assist in the selling of any Stocks or
Life Insurance, or like schemes.
We use our influence on our friends only where it may he of
benefit to themselves and our community.
The larue commissions paid for assisting in selling Stocks or
Life Insurance do not tempt us to work a hardship on 'our friends,
at their expanse, just in order that we might make a hunch of
"SIPK .MOXKY." We strive for the regular, legitimate, conserva
tive, honest hanking business, paying a decent rate of interest on
time deposits, and loanine money to local farmers and business
ineii at reasonable rates of interest.
We concrat ulate ourselves on having built up a REAL HANK
Willi over FOLK lirXliRKD AND FIFTY SATISFIED CUSTOM
ERS. If a dependable, conservative. "Live and let Live" strictly
banking institution appeals to you. and you are not already a cus
timer of ours, we earnestly invite you to join the HANK OF MUK
l'DCK family, and you will rest assured that we will take care
of your reasonable demands, and you will not find u.s trying
to sell you something you don't want, against your better judgment.

When you know the cause of a
disease a cure may often be effected.
This is particularly true of headache.
Headache often results from con
stipation or a disordered condition
of the stomach, which may he cor

Chamberlain's Tablets. Try it. These
tablets are easy to take and mild
and gentle in effect.

Members of Chapter F of This City
Motor to Camp Brewster and
Spen dthe Day.
Yesterday the members of Chap
ter F, P. E. O. of this city enjoyed
a most delightful picnic party and
outing at the beautiful summer
camp. Camp Brewster, near Omaha.
This camp is an ideal location for a
gathering of this kind, situated as
it is on the commanding hills south
of the metropolis and having a won
derful view of the great Missouri
valley and arranged w ith all the com
forts that add to the charm of out
door life at this season c.f the year.
The ladies were conveyed to the
camp bv auto, the cars of T. H. Pol
lock. H. F. Goos. Rev. II. G. McClus
ky. J. W.'Crahill. W. J. Streight and
J. E. Wiles, being used to convey the
party of thirty ladies to the pleasant
site of the picnic party.
On reaching Camp Brewster the la
dies were escorted, to the charming
natural breakfast room located in one
of the pleasant dells near the river
bank and where they found a deli
cious breakfast repast of bacon, eggs,
potatoes, sandwiches, cantaloupe and
coffee awaiting them and to which
they did ample justice.
The business session was held at
the breakfast room and the reports
from the state convention given by
the two delegates. Mrs. Frank B.
Shopp and Mrs. George O. Dovey. who
had been in attendance at the state
convention at Lexington and were
of the greatest interest to the mem
bers of the party.
The Indies had tlieir session inter
fered with to some extent by the'
sudden rain flurries but hastened to
the headquarters building where they
spent the remainder of the time on
the pleasant rustic porches in visit
ing and discussing the plans of the
society.
On their return home the ladies
joined in expressing the feeling that
it had been truly a very pleasant
event and that Camp Brewster was
certainly an ideal place for a gather
ing of this kind.

Ord. Neb.. June 24. -A recent sur
vey of the county shows that the
crops in this part of the Loup Valley
are in good shape. The wheat will
be ready to cut in just a few days
and most of the corn will be laid
by in the first part of July. It seems
that with no unlooked for weather
conditions, this year's crop will be a
bumper one.
Beatrice. Neb., June 24. Gage
county's threshing season is now un
der way the first job being reported
at the Jerry Mangus farm, northeast
of Beatrice. The wheat from a ten
acre tract threshed yesterday yielded
an average of twelve bushels per
acre. The grain was of good quality
and it is expected to test sixty pounds.
Mr. Mangus delivered his grain to a
Beatrice elevator receiving $1.19 per
bushel. County agent Boyd Rist is of
the opinion that some of the wheat
over the county will go as high as
thirty bushels per acre, one field in
particular being on the Merrick farm
near Adams.
June Brings Much Work!
The recent rains have insured a good crop of small
grain, which has been a little behind, and which is now
rapidly maturing. The corn also is making rapid strides.
This is bringing much work in June. The best of
machinery is needed for caring for the crops in this
busy season.
