DIXON, The Jeweler', j
U. P. Watch
Inspector.
North' P?attsf, which Is bccc-rnlrlg
known bi one of the convention cities
of tho state, has secured tho state con
Ventlon of the JB. P. 0. Elks for 1914,
thanks to the efforts of Messrs. Mc
Donald, Evans and Langford who at
tended the stato meeting at Omaha
this week. While tho nunibor of dele
gates attending the Elks' conventions
is not very largo, they aro always a
bunch of good follows who mix well,
and when thdy are in town tho fact is
known without any special advertising.
The strength of the North Platte
Elks, considering tho sparsely settled
territory assigned to their jurisdiction,
together with' their fine home, has
made tho lodge ono of tho best known
in the west, and tho delogntcs to the
stato convention roadlly consented to
having the 1914 convention held in this
city; they wanted to come hem next
year and mlnglo with tho "live wires."
In addition to selecting North Platto
for tho next convention, the local lodge
was furthor recognized by the election
of Hay C. Longford as one of the state,
officers.

A Word to our Subscribers.
While it is not customary for The
Tribune to refer to such matters, we
mako an exception in this instance to
call the attention of subscribers to tho
fact that too mnhyjof thorn, and espec
ially those residing in the city, are de
linquent. AJl- thoe in arrears will,
during the next two weeks rocoivo a
statement of tho amount due,
and it is not unfair to demnnd
that those amounts bo ''promptly
paid. If you do not deem The Tribune
worth tho price, tho publishor will
thank you if you will como in, pay the
amount duo and discontinue the paper;
it is n)t the desiro to send it to n single
person who does not consider ho gets
full value for tho investment. It is
better to have 1,000 subscribers who
are satisfied and pay promptly i than n
list of 2,000 and havo half of them dis
satisfied and slow pay.
The actual cost of producing Tho
Tribuno is considerably in oxcess of tho
subscription prico, and this being true
wo can not afford to carry doad-heada.
If you fail to respond within a reason
able timo to the statement sent you,
your nnmo will bo dropped from tho
list and the account placed in tho hands
of an agency for collection.

Conditions in Cheyenne County.
The Omaha Boe save: Special reports
to the Burlington from Cheyenne county
indicate that out there the agricultural
boom is reaching the acute stage. The
agent at Sidney roports that at this
time sixty tractor engines aro in opera
tion in the county, hauling an equal
number of eight-bottom plows, with
each set turning over twenty-five acres
of sod daily.
Since the first of April forty carloads
of emigrant movables wore received at
Sidney and more than 100 new settlers
have located in tho vicinity of the town,
most of them buying vacant land which
they aro now Improving.
Tho Tribuno man does not recall a
season when more improvements
were visible in North Piatt than
at present. More than a Bcore
of residences aro in various stngcB
of construction, on every street one
sees houses being repnired or enlarged
and there is a gcnoral forward move
ment inUhe building lino in all parts of
tho city. Somo times wo feel that
business in North Platto is not quite as
brisk as it should be but this feeling Is
disslpatod when wo rido ovor tho town
and noto the improvements; we then
conclude that woliave been complaining
without cause.
Tho city school board and Supt.
Tout met with tho patrons of the Baker
school in the school house of that dis
trict Wednesday afternoon and arrange
ments were made to build a windmill
and fence on the grounds and to irrigate
the grounds for tho elm trees recently
planted there. Tho building will bo re
paintod and eighth grade work will be
taken in addition to tho studios for
merly pursued. Tho attendance at this
school numbers about thirty.

"" Function of the Eyebrows.
Tho eyebrows protect tho eyo from

when It conies from nbove. This ef
