The University of Nebraska was
treated to a fine lecture the other day ,
along and displayed it while he lec
tured. The papers say he made a
f-reat hit, but Dr. Tyler wants to know
what he carried it in.
Now, we have a new discovery also.
It is a new collar, and its name i;
The Marcy, It Is an Arrow Collar,
the newest product of the Cluett-Pei-body
Shops. The picture just belo v
t-hows what it looks like, but you can
not appreciate it till you see it in tha
jplass around your own neck. The
pi ice is twenty-five cents. And be
sides, we have the nicest cases that
written contract with the tworRoaches,
by the terms of which the latter were
to cut and stack all the hay on his
ranch, estimated at 300 tons. Robin
son agreed to furnish miirhinprv nnrl
the Messrs. Roach to do the work in I
" on and workmanlike manner, and
were to receive $3..r0 per ton for the
hay so handled, the amount to be
.puieu oy me Hampton rule. Pay
ments were to be made as the work
progressed.
After some seventy tons had been
cut and stacked, Robinson looked over
the ground and complained they were
not complying with the agreement.
Considerable hay was scattered on the
pround, he charged,
are made to keep it in, along with the RZtll I ana announced
r ,,' . ' ,. that he wouldn t pay for such work.
(The Roaches declared the ground was
rest of the newest collars that Cluett-
Peabody make.

Even the Pennsylvania Grip wrote
them up during the last couple weeks
in bad condition and they were doing
it as well as they could under the cir
cumstances. One thing followed an
other, and Arthur and Ralph Roach
unhitched their horses from the mow
ers and left the field, with some 2o0
tons of hay uncut, and fifty-five tons in
swath and windrow. They then
brought suit for payment for 78 tons
of hay cut and stacked, and put in
some additional items, such as f 1! for
hauling a mower out to the ranch.
The total amount claimed was $275.
Mr. Robinson filed a setoff and
counter claim, admitting the contract,
but alleging that the hay measured
not 7x tons, but that by the breach
of contract he was compelled to hire
men and teams to put up the balance
of the hay, and that in consequence
th cost to him was $1 a ton instead of
$3.50, the contract price. 1I also
claimed damage of $25 per ton for the
iwij inb-ui 'v.f winnow, wnicn nai
been rotted by the rain, and $2 a ton
xor the hay left in the swath, which
had not been ruined. He included
other items, until according to his fig-
HAN DOM SHOTS
There is one woman in Alliance who
firmly believes that her husband is the
Master Mind. He spent one evening
teaching her the game of so'o, and his
knowledge of the run of the card was
nothing more than marvelous.
What she doesn't know is that Mac
spent three hours at the club the same
afternoon marking a deck of cards.
Carey will probablv have some op
portunities when he visits Washing
ton. There must be a pretty power
ful brand of wh.te mule in the capital
city, for a man who is there held a
long distance telephone conversation
with an Alliance young lady Tuesday
evening. See the secretary early.
At the rate it costs us to talk to
Aurora, a call from Washington to
Alliance probably set the brother back
about $'7.
Futurist Stuff from the American
Legion Weekly:
A veil of wispy green, dulling the
glow of the fading horizon. A mys
tery of grays. The blue-silk vault of
infinite space. Whispering waves,
hungry, phosphorescent, conspiring.
The silhouette of a ghost ship, slipping
westward. A world of sky and water,
silent, calm, omnipotent. Suddenly a
ringing voice, distinct, commanding in
tone:
: "Hey, you blankety-blank, dod-rot-led,
blinking blank-blanks! I been up
in this blatted crow's nest five hours.
Where the limpin' hell's my relief?"
We had it all planned to write a
stirring editorial urging that the mud
be cleaned off the pavement before
spring, else the average visitor
wouldn't realize we had paving. How
ever, they beat us to it and we're
cheated out of a glorious opportunity
to claim the credit.
Despite several hints, no one in
authority has intimated that thm-e is
the slitlnrt chance for us to be ap
pointed morals inspector for the h-Rh
school stairs.

For the Country Club, and all out
door sports, you will not be able to
find anything better suited to your
needs than our new "Diamond Ex
moor" Cloth Hat. You should see
them to appreciate them. Our window
right now is full of them, and we have
others inside. We certainly hope that
we shall have the pleasure of showing
them to you. They have a well rolled
brim and a low appearing crown,
which is due to special "Diamond"
to testimony all morning and a good
share of the afternoon. The testi
mony was not particularly at variance,
save as to the measurement of the hay.
It developed that the hay had not been
measured until some three months,
when, according to the usual custom,
this should have been done in from
fifteen to thirty days after cutting.
The judge split the difference between
the two estimates, and figured it at
seventy tons. He also cut the claim
for hauling the mower down one-half,
it developing that both Roach and
Robinson had sent cars to Alliance
for the machine. When he had placed
what he considered fair values on the
various claims and counter claims, he
figured up the totals and awarded the
treatment. This is an exclusive fea
ture of "Diamond" Hats and insures defen(lant $7.65 damages.

To the businew man, retail or wholesale; to the manufacturer; to the commis

an irresistible appeal because it has in its chassis all the merits of the original
Ford car; the wonderful Ford Model T Motor, the dependable Vanadium steel
chassis, and the manganese bronze worm-drive. A strongly built truck that
serves satisfactorily and lasts in service If these statements were not truer
the demand for Ford Trucks wouldn't be so constantly on the increase. We
will be pleased to take your order for one or more Ford Trucks, will see that you
get reasonably prompt delivery, and will give you an after service that insures
the constant service of the Truck. Dut don't wait too long. Get your order
