The latest doings In the Strasburg
er schoolhouse was an entertainment
musical and humorous. Among the
humorous were reasons given why
the homesteaders In this part of the
county left their palaces In other
parts of the United States to dwell
In sod houses and frame Bhacks In
the hills. Reasons were assigned by
Mrs. Samuel H. Speer, Mlsa Lucy
Tinkham and Messrs. Moore, Starr,
Squires and Strasburger. Some of
the reaaons given made Goode Old
Boy think that Solomon wife right
when he said, "All men are liars,"
and it may be possible ( perhaps i
that that "wisest of men" had some
ot these ho steaders in mind when
he said, "All men are liars." The
entertainment was well attended and
WOll enjoyed.
Rev. Torter, minister nt Strasburg
er, and Klder Ntiirr attended me
I'rcisbyterian Synod at North 1'lattc
They had the pleasure of listening
to Hon. Mr. Hryan In religious as
well as political talks.
There have been several newcom
er who have bought the improve
ments on claims near Strasburger
John 0. Kessler, a soldier in the
Union army, a brother-in-law of John
H. and Edward Strasburger, bought
the improvements of the Drnry'is, and
l'hilpott buying the Improvements of
I'hilpott, buying th cimpoerv incuts of
Curtis Wilson. Success to those who
come, and good luck to those who
go away May all have good health,
happiness, prosperity and continu
ance, is the sincere wish of the
writer.

In the election of officers of the
Cnion Tresbyterian Sunday School
at Strasburger, Mrs. Snuel II. Speer
was unanimously re-elected Superin
tendent. Sheridan county potatoes are noted
the world over, so says the Omaha
Bee. Verily, we believe there are
none better From the heaps of hiu
potatoes, turnips, squash and good
corn that has been raised around
Btraabttrger, it is hard to believe that
we had a drought. Sam H. Speer
brought us a turnip weighing over
nine pounds. Like Longfellow's beet.
"It grew and it grew."
Rev I) W. Montgomery of Alliance
and Rev. (!. ft Torter will hold re
vival meetings in the Strasburger
school house, beginning Tuesday,
Oct. II, at 7:110 p. DL, and continuing
through the week. We will be de
lighted to hear these man of God, be
lieving they are about their Master's
business. We wish them the great
est degree of success in bringing
many into the fold of Him who said,
"I am the way, the truth and the
life."
On Friday night, Oct. 27. there will
be a dance at the ffhaslwrgaf school
house.
Rev (!. ft Porter preach'-s every
other Sabbath afternoon in the Straet
burger school house. If you hear htm
lie will do you good.
Everybody here is either making
fences, digging potatoes, hauling lum
ber, coal or provisions, proving up
