How glad we arc that the paving

Ask any printer In town he'll tell
you.
It's a good piece of humor, too.
Most of these paragraphs are, we
hope.
We try ' make 'em that way, any
how.
Dut now and then we fall down.
And when we do we donst have In
be told about it we know it.
And provides ro.ne amusement.
Dut no eurprlso.
Nor concern.

"Mornin', Judge!" we said yester
day morning.
Which doesn't necessarily meani
that we were defendant In a polieo
court case.
.We were speaking to Judge Itob

And, so far as that Is concerned
we have spoken to him in polic?
court.
Dut not as a defendant.

But they soon will be.
And Alliance has so many other
advantages over the ordinary burg
of her size that one or two minor
matters can be overlooked.
The Insurance agents are anions
us as we go to press.
They are a buhch worth having
among us, too.
There were one or two buildings
in Alliance that we were preparing
to apply the torch to on account of
general unsightliness.
Now we're going to have to vali
until the insurance brethren are out
of the city.
Did you Bee the play of the north
ern lights Monday evening?
Or Is that what the phenomenon
was?
We've heard varied expressions of
opinion about it.
At any rate, having imbibed notu
lng worse than one bottle of Bevo at
the, time we saw it, we knew it wasn't
a case of having 'em again.
Even from Antloch there arlseth
a wall.
And a knock.
All of which helps.
NEISWANGER MAKES
HIS POSITION CLEAR
George Neuswanger of the Farm
ers' Union association last week told
us a number of interesting facts
bout ne7 records for hog produc
tion in Box Butte county. In our
published report we told of the prof
Its to be made in hog raising, and
mentioned the new packing company
as a possible market, which would
still further Increase the profits In
hog production. Mr. Neuswanper's
?ndorsement of the proposition was
an endorsement solely of the hog
raising idea. He has reserved his de
cision on the other matter, and does
not care to be quote either as en
dorsing or vondemnlng the packing
plant.

SILVER
One can no more picture a
home without silver than a
home without people in It. So
when occasion comes for giving
a wedding present, one's first
thought Is of Silver and the
next of Thiele's for Silver
and Thiele'B are inseparable in
thought.
So many articles of silver,
which one mentally pictures
gracing a home, are seen at
Thlele's that choosing the
bride's gift becomes a delight
ful experience.
Though high in taste and
character, Thiele silverware is
indeed moderate in price.
