Help Dedicate
Lincoln Highway
Friday evening, October tho 81st, nt
7:30 p. m. a match was touched to a
huge mountain of refuso on South
Dewey street, between tho high school
building and the court house, nnd a few
moments thereafter the heavens were
lighted up by tho blare, ns North
Platte's portion of lighting the way of
the Lincoln Memorial Highway. This
was in keeping with a dedicatory service
that was being held in every city along
the road from New York to San
Francisco. Several hundred people
gathered to witness the bonfire, listen
to the selections by the North Platte
band, do honor to the prime movers of
the great work and reverence to
Abraham Lincoln, in whoso memory
tho great transcontinedtal highway is
being builded, and whoso name it bears.
After the flames had died away and
nothing was loft but the glowing em
bers many of the onlookers followed
the band to the district court room
where E. S. Davis as chairman of the
evening, T. C. Patterson as delegate
from the Chamber of Commerce to
tho Detriot meeting, and J. M. Pul-
liam, a good roads booster, of Brady,
in a few well chosen remarks followed
the history of the highway from Its
inception, spoke of Its untold advan
tages to our state nnd nation and
eulogized the great emancipator whose
spirit, through present day patriotism,
is to build this national thoroughfare.
North Platte is geographically blessed
by being on this highway, but with
that blessing carries a duty that must
be borne and unless that duty is to be
shouidered.upon the few, the citizenship
of North Platte and community must
awake and put a concerted shoulder to
tho wheel. We can now take lessons
from our sister towns on either side of
us who nre far in our lead with refer
ence to their patriotism, as eyidenced
by their works, along these lines.
Never before has North Platte the op
portunity that is at her door at this
time. Is sho equal to tho occasion?
North Platte High Loses.
Tho North Platto hieh school foot
ball oleven returned from Sterling, Col.,
Saturday morning whoro they played
the school boys of that place Fridav.
The high altitude, or something else,
seemed to have its effect on our boys,
for when tho final time was called the
sqore. stood 28 to 0 in favor of the
sterling team. This js the worst set?
back our team has experienced in a long
timo, but it should not check them any
in keeping up their post good record.
