They have had wheel, doll bug gy, small couples, pony, circus and a half dozen other varieties of parades, with the number of entries running well over the 200 mark. This coming Saturday they will feature an "old costume" parade. One idea they have so far overlooked and which was car ried out here with great success was the "comic strip" parade. It shows what can be accomplished with good old home-spun entertainment and it certainly beats hiring a lot of medi ocre entertainers from the city at a large expense to come in and "enter tain" the people. ted invi Weeping Vater T. J. Jamison was a visitor at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Margaret Brendel, on Wednesday of this week. "Bill" Johnson and wife visited at Sidney, Iowa, last Thursday and Fri day, where they enjoyed the rodeo which was being hell at that time. Secretary Frank .13.

No sadder story is found in the whole Bible, than , the story of Saul, the son of Kish, from the tribe of Benjamin, the first King of Israel. Our lesson includes his whole life. recorded in I Sum. 9-15. The lesson found ia thia tragic story is the cause of failure in life, by disobedience to parents, teachers and God and God's written word. We admire the noble character cf this man at the begin ning. his magnimity shown against tnose that retused to honor him as King; but no sadder ending is on rec ord of a man with such fine begin ning a suicide. The whole story might have the superscription, "The wages of sin is death." (Rom. 6i23). The question may be asked: "Did God make a mis take in chosing this man as king?' We would record an emphatic "No! to this question. - His disobedience was of Iiis own chosing. But we will follow Saul and see God's leading in his life. When Israel demanded a king, Samuel was displeased, but God said, the people have not rejected thee, but me, that I shall not be king over them. God had the man ready for the office. How strange and mys terious are God's ways! Kish's valu able asses have gone astray, depend able Saul and a servant are sent to find them; they did not find them, but Saul found a kingdom. In his search for the animals, he comes to Samuel, who is at Zuph. who in turn advises him that the asses are found and his father is now concerned for the son. Samuel keeps him overnight. has a long talk with Saul, honors him the next day at a banquet in his hon or, thirty being present; the prophet annoints him and nives him three signs in confirmation of this astound ing act: First, the asses are found, second, three men will meet him, one carrying three kids, another three loaves of bread, the third a bottle of wine, and they would give him two loaves of bread; third, he would meet a band of singing prophets, playl"fc instruments, whereurn the spirit of prophecy would ccme upon him and he would be turned into another man. And all these things came to puss that same day. At the assembly ut Mizpah, Saul was formally chosen aa king by lot. A perfect specimen of manhood, in physic and kingly hear ing, head and shoulders above every 'man. Formally installed an king, he proved to be the right man.. Ho ub dued the host of the Ammoritesi with an army of 330,000 men. Thl w the first of seven campa'K"8 '"S"' n-v Saul that proved his valor and mili tary skill. From now on we obaervi how he becomes self-willed, stubborn, I which developed into depoaU0' melanchcly. suKntHon. jealouy. tred, intrigue, discord, turbulence. 1 NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS Sealed bids will be received at the office of the Department of Roads and Irrigation in the State House at Lin coln.

Then he displayed his hypo critical nature by trying to deceive the old prophet, by telling him that the people, had spared these herds for sacrifice to God. Man has ever tried to cover up his wrong-doing and find an excuse Adam says: "The woman is at fault." Eve says: "The serpent beguiled me." Nathan says to David: "Thou art the man." Here is a man who promised to be the right man in the right place, but he developed into a man that God had to rejert. The saddest saying record ed in all the scriptures is here given: "Because thou hast rejected the word cf Jehovah, he hath also rejected thee from being king." This pronounce mcnt of his doom brought on the ef fect in his character, as described above. Did Saul tell the truth in his word to Samuel? (Verse 2 4). We think not ! "I have sinned" U an old formula. Balaam, Achan, Job, David. Micah used it. Did this man Saul tell the truth when he said. "I feared the people" when he di.l not foar God. nor obey his voice?
