Many Get Hail Insurance
The people who have not believed
in hail insurance are now rather glad
they had some for during the past
week some $15,000 has been distrib
uted in and around Murdock for
losses suffered by the hail last sum
mer. There are yet to some some
$25,000, which in all it is very con
servatively estimated will be in the
neighborhood of $40,000. This is
surely fine for the lucky parties who
will be compensated in part at least
for their work in planting and cul
tivating the crops that were devas
tated by the hail.
PAWNEE WOMAN BEATS KEC0ED
PICKS 106 BUSHELS OF CORN
Pawnee City, Neb., Dec. 3. Mrs.
Dick Percival, holder of Pawnee coun
ty women's corn shucking champ
ionship by virtue of her feat of husk
ing 91 bushels in a day, surpassed
her own record recently when she
gathered 106 bushels of corn. From
6:30 in the morning until 5:30 at
night Mrs. Percival trudged the rows
of about two acres of corn near her
home six miles south of here. Her
husband hauled and scooped the loads
shucked by his wife and himself.
Mrs. Percival dresses like a man
when the field and uses a regular
patent hook. She is the mother of
six children, and before "calling it
a day" she did her housework and
aided in preparations for Thanksgiving.

spirit of the service.
The evangelist stressed in his mes
sage the greatness of the need of
making a choice which would be in
favor of God. It was a real message,
delivered with his usual force and
power and resulted in the gratifying
results above mentioned.
It is expected that tonight's audi
ence will be the largest of any during
the series of meetings. The church
will undoubtedly be crowded to the
doors. A big attraction of tonight's
service will be the presence of the
evangelist's family in a musical pro
gram of probably thirty-five or forty
minutes in length.
This family is unusually talented
and has had wide experience, appear

magnate : where the self-made rise
suddenly from obscurity to emin
ence, there is needed a new social
recognition for all honorable occupa
tions. Educational tendencies must
not be controlled by but must con
trol that social standing.
Education is the great leveler. It is
breaking down the barriers between
those who toil by hand and those
who labor by brain; it is tearing
down the wall that separates the
socially elect from those of humble
origin. Step by step this country is
moving in the evolution of a new
measure for social value worth
rather than wealth where, if there
be any aristocracy at all, it will be
an aristocracy of brains. It is tend
ing more and more to become the
world's true index of value. For in
every occupation men and women
are measured by their works, and
the quality of their work is in the

Community Building as List
Nears the Goal Mark.
From Friday's Dai'.y
Nothing succeeds like success!
To this may be accountable in part
at least the fact that the community
auditorium fund is being boosted al
most daily by handsome volunteer
contributions since the splendid in
creases from the carnival and sale of
the Ovarland car given by T. H. Pol
lock started the mercury on the way
to the top of the tube in the impro
vised thermometer at the Bates Book
Store corner.
When the cornerstone of the new
building is laid, among the things
deposited therein will be a list of all
contributors to this fund. All the
money collected to date has been held
intact and will continue to be until
the drive goes over the top and the
balance necessary to erect the build
ing is borrowed.
In giving $30 to the fund yester
day, a man who wishes his identity
withheld stated that he felt every
one will rally to the cause, now that
success is assured and make possible
the securing in a few days of all the
remaining sum necessary to go over
the top.
Success is in the air. Let's all get
behind the ball and keep it rolling
right on over the top. Leslie Xiel is
treasurer of the Finance committee
and contributions may be left with
him at the postoffice. Due credit for
every penny subscribed will be made
in the published list of contributors.
Everyone can well afford to invest
at least a few dollars in this enter
prise that will return big dividends
for our town and community.
