Merry Christmas and Happy New
Year to all.
Thomas Wade, of Page, was on
O’Neill visitor Thursday.
Will Gill, of Stuart, made a business
trip to O’Neill Thursday.
Clark Huff, of Chambers, was in the
city Thursday.
E. Roy and W. Townsend, of Up
ton, Wyoming, are in the city this
week attending court.
The Frontier tenders to its great
family of readers, both large and
small, its beet wishes and hopes that
they, will enjoy a Merry Christmas
and a Happy and Prosperous New
Year.
Joe Hetmaneck.of Dodge, erstwhile
manager of Joe Stecher.once Champion
wrestler of the World, but lately
fallen from his throne, was in the
city Wednesday vsiting with friends
and looking after business matters.
We understand that the Red Cross
auction sale and dance, held at At
kinson last Monday night netted the
Red Cross treasurery the sum of
$1,400. The good people of Atkinson
are always at the front in pushing a
worthy project.
Mrs. A. F. Sauser was hostess at
the meeting of the Willing Workers
Club on Tuesday last. Since our last
report, one scarf has been added to the
list of finished and turned in articles.
One new member was also added.
Mrs. Anthony Stanton will entertain
the club on January 8. All are busy
knitting but no meetings will be held
during the holidays.
The public sale of Con A. Shea,
held last Monday, was very success
ful, the amount received from the
sale running $600 over the estimate
made by Mr. Shea. Con has rented
his farm and left this morning for
Seattle, Washington, to spend Christ
mas with relatives and will probably
locate in the west, provided he finds
something that suits him.
The Sanitary meat market was en
tered by a band of youthful brigands
some time Tuesday night, entrance
being gained through a basement
window. The ' thieves contented
themselves with the money in the cash
dollars. Several arrests probably will
be made in the near future, as Mr.
Simpson has a definite clew as to the
identity of the boys.
Dr. and Mrs. W. T. Sloan and two
daughters, of Pine Bluffs, Wyo., are
new arrivals in this city. They will
spend the winter here, having rooms
at the Parker House. They are old
residents of Nebraska, Dr. Sloan hav
ing practiced medicine for sixteen
years in Gage county. Mrs. Sloan is
the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
W. T. McElvain and a sister of Mrs.R.
K. Platt and Mrs. Chas. Schriers.
Sheriff Duffy and County Attorney
Boyle went to Stuart Tuesday and ar
rested a gentleman whose home is
near Atkinson for having in his poses
sion and distributing, something
Which, since May 1st, it is illegal to
have and distribute. The gentleman
was then taken to Atkinson where he
was brought before a magistrate, who
assessed him the sum of $109.50,
which, of course, was put in the cof
fers of the city.
The following Frontier readers were
callers the past week and extended
their subscription: Ed. Menish, John
I
Grutsch, William Clevish, Frank Big
lin, C. A. Brown, Fred Vitt, Henry
Kloepper and Con Shea, O’Neill;
George Ridgway, Agee; J. I). Pruss,
Emmet; James Beauchamp, Meek; E.
A. Steskal, Fred Beckwith, Atkinson;
and William Renninger, Chambers.
These men were willing to do their
part that the editorial family would
have a Merry Christmas.
In honor of Fred W. Wright, of
Scotts Bluffs, Neb., M. F. Harrington
entertained the lawyers, bankers and
newspaper/men of the city and At
torney Harry Brome, of Omaha, with
a dinner at the Golden Hotel last
Thursday evening. Twenty-six were
present and enjoyed the good things
provided. At the conclusion of the
dinner, Judge Dickson, presiding as
toastmaster, called upon several of
those in attendance for short talks,
the principal theme and subject of the
discourses being patriotism and love
of country. It was a very pleasant
evening and those present hope that
M. F. will again give them the op
portunity of enjoying his hospitality.
Friends of Mrs. John L. Quig as
sisted her in fittingly observing the
anniversary of her birthday Saturday
evening at the Quig residence, com
pletely surprising her by walking in
enmasse and bringing the eats along.
A most enjoyable time was had and
even the Judge was allowed to parti
cipate in the festivitnes. Mrs. Quig
was the receipent of several handsome
mementos. Those comprising the sur
prise party were Miss Florence Mc
Cafferty, Miss Anna McCaffety, Miss
Virginia Testman, Miss Grace *Ham
mond, Mr. and Mrs. Guile Tague, Mrs.
H. g. Tague, Mr. and Mrs. O. A. Kil

Captain O. E. Meredith arrived in
the city last Friday evening for a
few days visit at the home of his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Meredith.
Captain Meredith was on his way
from Fort Sheridan, 111., where he had
been stationed for the past four
months as one of the officers in charge
of the officers training camp, to Fort
Sill, Oklohoma. Tuesday evening
Captain Meredith, at the invitation of
the Community Club, delivered an ad
dress on army and army life at the
Golden Hotel which was listened to
by a very large crowd. Capt. Mere
dith explained the different branches
of the army and told of the enormous
task before the American people to
get the army in proper condition to do
its full share in the world’s war. The
address was very interesting and at
its conclusion the speaker was heart
ily applauded. The address was to
have been delivered in the Club rooms,
but Captain Whelan marched the
home Guard to the hotel to listen to
the address and the meeting then ad
journed to the lobby of the hotel.
Captain Meredith left on Wednesday
morning for Ft. Sill.
That’s True.
“There’s one great advantage about
cooking by electricity.”
“What’s that?”
“You don’t have to worry about
coal.”
