Drafts
DRAFTS issued by the First National Bank
are used for the same purposes that Post
Office and Express Money Orders are, and
are available for many other uses.
We recommend the use of DRAFTS when
traveling, when transferring money from
place to place and when sending money to
parties, at other places as they are cheaper,
much more convenient and absolutely safe.
DRAFTS can be carried in lieu of currency
and the owner is absolutely protected from
loss.
DRAFTS can be transferred from one person
to another as many times as desired, thus sav
ing many extra fees.
DRAFTS are available for use iri the UNITED
STATES, CANADA or MEXICO.
The fee charged for our DRAFTS is about
one-third less than the fee charged for Post
Office or Express Orders.

In the ovening twenty-four of their
young lady friends played "500." Miss

the booby prize, a silver bon bon dish.

pleasant occasion.

Camille Nohe Bids Farewell to Friends
It is a source of regret to the friends
of Camille Nohe that he has found it
necessary to leave Alliance for the
present in order that he may receive
necessary medical treatment, but they
are pleased that this will not deter him
from attending school at Colorado
Springs, where he has gone.
One last Friday evening the high
school faculty, the orchestra, and
basketball boys responded to invita
tions from their former pupil and
schoolmate to banquet at the Nohe
cafe.
Prof. Williams was toastmaster of
the occasion and introduced the
speakers in a befitting manner. Beulab
Smith spoke in behalf of the orchestra,
speaking words of regret because of
the loss of their chief violinist. Fred
Carlson spoke on "How the basketball
boys will miss Camille," and Prof.
Hayes on "Camille's standing with the
faculty." Though not on the program,
Prof. Hanna responded to a solicitation
for a talk and voiced the sentiments of
the others in their regret at Camille's
departure and their well wishes for his
future success.
We trust he may ere long be per
mitted to return and fill his accustomed
place among us.
But It was Only "Tom."
It's not often that we print laughable
incidents about our neighbors, but
here's 0110 on Officers Huusaker and
Donovan that occurred last night we
cannot keep: A hurry call turned in
from one of our residents on Cheyenne
avenue told the police of burglars in
their basement. With a rush the
above officers responded, loaded for
bear. Donovan with six-shooter
cocked and primed, stood guard at the
entrance of the basement while his
brother minion of the law investigated
the dark recesses with a flash light
to locate the whereabouts of the mid
night visitor. A sudden call from
HuiiBaker told the hecret:
'Why,
Donovan, it's nothing but a great big
torn cat."
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Smith returned
