This pnrk has been n glected by reason of lack of funds put in a water system, without whl ! trws, shrubbery and blue grass cm' not very well exist. With m Incroan 1 levy for parks, tho monoy from whw h will becomo available beginning noxt May, and with the co-operation of th? Twentieth Century Club, It Is hoV'l to mako a start with Improvemfliits that will flnnlly result In making thr park a beautiful place. Unfortunately North Platte purchased parks but nn glected to provide funds In a proppt amount to beautify thorn. Ton thous and dollars aro needed to mnko im provement that should have boon made several, years ago. Tho drst step to bo taken Is a water suMy.' not only for tho oast ond parkwi for tho Fourth ward park, and It Is probably that In both Instances this water supply must be obtained through Independent plants, for the present mains leading to both pnrks aro Inadequate to supply tho needed wntcr and the city is not in financial shape to lay larger mains. ::o:: Rod Cross Roll Cull.

Scene from the Great Allied Victory Play end all around world success, "Seven Days Leave," at the KEITH THEATRE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 31st. iOME of your friends must have been in the ige audience which heard, Odette Le Fontenay in her Tone-Test recital at Methodist Church. Ask these people about it. This is the astonishing discovery made. The keenest musical ear can not distinguish any difference between the voice of the living artist and the RE-CREATION of that voice by the New Edison. And does it not amaze you, too, that Mr. Edison has succeeded in producing an instrument that captures every subtle sweetness of the human voice that gives you all the ear can give you of the art of the world's great artist. No other phonograph dares to make this direct comparison. le NEW EDISON 'The Phonograph With a Soul" The New Edison alone can RE-CREATE music for you. Come in and hear it for yourself. Make the great discovery for yourself. HARRY DIXON, Jeweler. The instrument used in Friday's Tone-Test is tho regular model which sells for $285 (in Canada $431). It is on exact duplicate of the Laboratory Model which Mr. Edison perfected after spending Three Million Dollars in experiments.
