    ALLIANCE - CITY OF GOOD SCHOOLS
A LLIANCE is known in Nebraska educational circles as a town of the best advantages obtainable. Second to none in
f the state, offers all the educational and home life advantages with none of the disadvantages of the large cities. A
modern little city, with electric lights and power, city water and sewer, modern conveniences of every kind, and the finest
climate in the west. A large modern high school building, a big public school in the west end, know n as Emerson school,
and a building soon to be erected in place of the burned Central school. A Catholic academy, St. Agnes, known all over
this section for its thorough
and excellent work. Think
of these facts when you select
your home for the education
of your family.
