SELLS CARTERCARS IN CHADRON .1. C. Mct'orkle, western Nebraska agent for the Carterear, the friction drive automobile which is creating so much interest, was in Ohadron last week, where he placed several new cars. Mrs. Shrewsbury is In Grand Is land visiting with her sister, Mrs. Charley Tharp. She will be gone about a week.

Warrick in their recent exchange deal. Christmas will soon be celebrated by the people of (his state and the Christmas tree and public entertain ments In crowded churches and halls and homes will be used to embellsh the occasion. In order that nothlnR will occur to mar the occasion and cause a Life Time of Regrets, I earnestly urge those having those matters in charge to observe the following rules: Do not decorate your Christmas tree with paper, cotton, celluloid or any other Inflammable material UM metallic tinsel and other non inflam inahle deCOratlofll only, and set the trii' sr. urely so that it cannot tip over. Do not use cotton to repre sent snow; if yon must have snow use asbestos fiber. If there is any other possible way to light the tree do not tise candle. The tree itself is very Inflammable and will burn when the needles be eOM dry. Where electric lights can be obtained small bulbs of different colors can be strung around over the tfet hut this work should only he done b) some one thoroughly under standing electricity. Harge - lamps with reflectors so arranged as to throw the light on the tree will give the tree a beautiful appearaiue and will not endanger the lives of those in attendance. Ho not permit Santa Clans to wear an inflammable heard or wig. Usually the presents that art placed upon Cltrlitmai tires are done in tissue paper tiial is very inflammable and l-'laxen Haired Dolls and Teddy Hears and such presents are Inflammable and a spark from one of the little candles is liable in start a fire and there is always some one present ready to cream and yell "FIRE", and then the trouble takes place: a rush Is made for the door and there are enough grown people in the audience to trample the life out of the little children who are present and who are filled with expectancy at receiving the gifts that are on the tree but instead of re ceiving a present they are litihlc to receive either painful or fatal injur ies and tin occasion of merriment will be turned into mourning. All aisles and exits should be kept ab solutely clear so that if an accident should happen all of the OCCUpantl ..in retire from the hitild'mg quickly and uninjured. I hope the bulletins l have issued have implanted IB the minds of those who will have these entertainments in charge a determination to prevent injury and loss of life of all those who attend theBe Christmas enter tainments. Very truly yours, c. it ItfDALL, chief Deputy.
