W attended the Armistice Dny
, program laet Friday morning. Out of
the'' four ) liundrod people thoro wo
mlMed ninny of the bunlnosn and pro
foslonnl inon of tho city. There wore
vory fow of ,tlio Amerlafli Legion
boys, practically no farmers or labor
ing men and almost no chlldron. We
saw a sprinkling of housewlvos, a few
teachers, almost none of the respons
ible young women and a fow old poj
ple. It Hecmed as though most of tho
audience was composed of friends of
tho band and those who were taking
part on tho program. With business
houses closed and a holiday for labor
it must have been n disappointment
to those who put on the program,
whon tho hour camo and tho houso
was not full. It Is said that two thous
and people paid 75c each to see the
football gamo in tho afternoon and
only four hundred could be attracted
to tho morning oxccrclscs which were
freo. What docs It mean?
Wo aro temptod to urge aomoono
,to volunteer to help In tho lied Cross
membership campaign. People aro
taking out mombor'shlps pretty gen
erally when solicited but so many
people have had oxcmbcb when they
aro asked to solicit that thoso In
.ctargo of tno work aro goling dis
couraged. Miss Anna Kramph Is in
chargo of tho city campaign an'd tho
.fact that she is leader should line
up a strong cominltijo to back her
up. But sho is met by this excuse
a'nd that oxcuso and as a result she
ftdopfl not havo enough helpers to
koop things going. She Js not com-
,plainjng but if about forty ladleB 01
this city would call her up and offer
ito give one half day each to tho cam
paign; It would uiako her smllo so
th'cy could hoar 11 at tho Slate Farm.
We woro 'privileged' to know ChaB.
Crosby. lie was a good man and a
good citizen. Ho novcr lot his pat
riotism and lovo for his country re
place his love for his God and IiIb
church as bo many others have dono.
And yot ho sorved his country faith
fully and long and at tho tlmo of
'hlH' nnth ho was First Lieutenant
Quartermaster In tho Reserves. lie
Was a comrad whom tho older men
of tho arnty loved and admired. Ho
wa.B n father whom four chlldron
will; iuIbb and wliom tho widow
mojhor will long for. Tho novs of
his death- was a blow to hla many
friends and ncuunlntancaB and his
memory will bo held in tho hlghoMt

and tho community an additional NINE DAYS OF BARGAINS. WHY? People came
to our great ten day sale for over 50 miles: Just at the beginning the south bridge into
town, over the Platte River was closed; repeated letters from residents of Curtis,
Maywood, WellHeet and other towns south, have asked us to retain prices for them;
wo could not lay any goods away, so we have decided to continue this great avalanche
of ifrlce giving for the next nine days, in fact up till Thanksgiving eve. The many
days of warm weather has made many believe we will have an open winter do not be
fooled; every prediction is for a cold and hard winter. Ladies take advantage of low
prices NOW and BUY SUITS, COATS, DRESSES, FURS, MILLINERY everything for
the little folks. Children's DRESSES, COATS we are determined to reduce this
