The boyish, tailored
vogue means oxfords!
The vogue for boyish tailored suits and dresses, just origi
nated in Paris, is sweeping the country. The tailored suit
means oxfords—and to the woman who knows, oxfords mean
Walk-Overs. For half a century Walk-Over walking shoes
for women have been the standard of high quality oxfords.
Today, more than ever, Walk-Over made-to-order fit, Walk
Over long life, and Walk-Over style in oxfords lead the way
td correctness in smartly tailored footwear. One highly suc
cessful model hrshown here. Many more await your call.

FINAL SETTLEMENT OF
KINKAID ESTATE MADE
BY ADMINISTRATOR WEEKES
A rather novel method was adopted
in disposing of the real estate belong
ing to the estate of the late Moses P.
Kinkaid who represented the Sixth
District of Nebraska in Congress for
twenty years and who died in Wash
ington in July, 1922. He left twelve
heirs consisting of a brother living,
three children of a deceased brother
and eight children of a deceased
sister. The real estate consisted of
2640 acres located in Arkansas, Texas,
Nebraska and Canada. S. J. Weekes
of O’Neill, administrator of the estate
suggested to the heirs that they
divide the land by agreement to save
the expense and delay of dividing it
by partition suits in each of the juris,
dictions.
At a meeting of the heirs held in
O’Neill recently they requested Mr.
Weekes, the administrator, to sug
gest a plan of division. A tentative
plan was submitted by the adminis
trator that seemed so equitable that
no one of the twelve heirs would take
a first choice. All the heirs declin
ing to make any choice in the pro
posed division, numbers were then
placed in a hat and the numbers as
drawn out by each heir took the allot
ment of land with a corresponding
number. That portion of the personal
estate on which the cash had not been
realized was divided among the heirs
by agreement also.
The probating of the estate has
just been closed here and the adminis
trator’s final report shows $107,000.00
, in cash received and disbursed.

FARM HOME BURNED
EARLY TUESDAY MORNING
The farm residence on the place
known as the George Gaughenbaugh
farm, five miles south and five miles
west of O’Neill, and now occupied by
a young couple, Mr. and Mrs. Brandt,
was totally destroyed by fire early
Tuesday morning. The fire was dis
covered at about three o’clock in the
morning and had gained such head
with their lives. Nothing was saved
way that the occupants barely escaped
with their lives. Nothing was saved
from the interior of the house. We
understand that a small amount of
insurance was carried on the building
but none on the contents.
