, W. A. Vollmer will sell the Star
Clothing House and will open a
a clothing department in the Ben
: nett department store at Omaha
as soon as the new Bennett buiid-
ing in that city is completed. Mr.
Vollmer has been identified with
the business interests of North
Platte almost consecutively for fif
teen years past, and has always
proven an enterprising merchant
and progressive citizen. The Star
has always had a large patronage
and it is conceded by all that it
deserved all it received. Mr. Voll
mer's reason for selling is that he
desires to engage iu business in a
larger place than North Platte and
when the opportunity to take the
clothing department in the new
Bennett store was presented he
promptly accepted. In the removal
(of Will and Charley Vollmer, the
town loses two young men who
are among its most popular people,
and every citizen will wish them
abundant success in their new held.
Today will probably see the end
of the period of low temperature,
and the groi'iid hog will be given
an opportunity to see his shadow
next Sunday. This event will be
followed by six week's of weather
wlncn will necessitate the wearing
ot winter wraps.
