ABRAHAM 1 INCOLN.
In the scroll of the illustrious men
who have lived and died for America,
no name shines more brightly than
that of Abraham Lincoln, the rugged,
typically American figure whose deeds
and words are a light and an inspira
tion for all the time to come. For
Abraham Lincoln was not born to
pomp and power: Abraham. Lincoln
had no heritage of wealth or royal
blood: Abraham Lincolnnaunosmoom
road to tread. What he accomplished
came of the sweat of his brow, the
labor of his hands, the straining of
his every faculty. And at the last
his life was lost in the great cause for
which he had fought with an ardor
seldom equalled in history.
A poor boy was our Lincoln, with
out even the advantage of an easily
accessible education he trod miles to
get a book, which he studied in the
cabin firelight of his humble home.
Tail and ungainly, a veritable tree of
strength and courage, he strode from
the log cabin to the White House.
Few men have inspired such rev
erence as he. Writers have split hairs
about the qualities of the great of our
land; the one unassailable figure, per
haps, Is Abraham Lincoln. No one
has split hairs about the character of
the revered rail splitter; it shines
through the age* with umliminished
flame; his heart-heat still echoing in
the nation today.

BRISTOW NOSES OUT O’NEILL.
(Bristow Enterprise.)
Did we have a basket-ball game?
Say we didn’t have anything else.
Last Thursday evening the O’Neill
basket artists journied over the Bris
tow way with their caps on the side
of their heads, chests thrown out and
a big confident smile on their faces.
And why not? Weren’t they the un
defeated bunch from that vast me
tropolis of Holt County? They went
back after the game and how. But
that’s goihg ahead of the story.
The first quarter was a ladies ten
party. Both teams were very polite.
Bristow* had one of its substitutes in
and their team work was ragged.
O’Neill showed lots of class in their
team work but they couldn’t get
around the big Bristow guards for
any great amount of counters so the
quarter ended with the score, O’Neill
8 Bristow 4. At the beginning of the
second juarter Bristow substituted
Ted Scheissler.for Fedderson, and the
party began to get rough. Bristow
made one and Jack Scheissler, drib
bling the ball down was slapped in
the eye and had to be taken out. Pea
nuts Bennett took his place and the
game progressed merrily. Bristow
was battling to tie the score and the
O’Neill machine was playing a beau
tiful passing pivot game. This quar
ter was A just a little faster than
the firstr and gave the fans a promise
of supreme basket-ball before the
game was over. Scores at the half 10
to 8 O’Neill.
The third quarter opened up like a
tornado had been let loose some
where. Boy how things did go; First
under the O’Neill basket, then back to
Bristow’s goal, clean fast, hard fight
ing. Slap Slap hear those shoes hit
the floor. Bang the ball hits the bang
board. The game still holding fairly
even and at the end of the third quar
ter the score was knotted at 13
apiece.
The last quarter saw two champion
ship teams fighting as if in a cham
pionship battle. Up and down the
floor the ball went. Then Bristow
put it through the hoops three times
in about a minute and a half and then
O’Neill came right hack with three in
about 30 seconds. One of the Bristow
boys slipped in another one and about
a minute later the game was over.
Bristow 21 O’Neill 19.
Talk about a breath-taking hai.r
, raising sport that game was it.
And we are gonig to let you in on
a little in-side dope—O’Neill is going
j to be here again on Thursday. Febru
ary 9, and if any man, woman or child,
not paralyzed or otherwise crippled,
misses thnt game, they should be
taken out and shot at sunrise.
I’ll lie there don’t think I won’t.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES.
A correction has been made by the
Slate Department in the interpreta
tion of the new transportation law re
garding the fee due parents whose
chilren must travel over three mile*
to school. The law .states that such
families are entitled to five cents for
each quarter of a mile nr fraction
thereof, that their children must trav
el to school over the three mile limit.
There ha* been some discussion aa to
whether this means to and from school
or only one way. It ha* been defi
nitely decided that the law allow* a
family to draw inilmgr for only
way. This mean* that if a parent
lives four mile* from school he is en
titled to draw twenty rents each day
that hia children attend school, Thi*
Item is U> correct the statement made
from this i'dice some time ago that
the ft* would be paid both way* as
we had formerly had advice from the
Stale Department to that effect.

MARION JEAN PORTER.
—
(Chambers, Nebraska.)
The community was saddened, Fri
day, by the sudden death of little Ma
rion Porter, youngest daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Frank Porter, of Chambers.
Marion Jean Porter was born at
Chambers, Nebraska, January 21,
1926. She was a lovable child of a
sunny disposition. She was ill only
a few short hours. Death came so
peacefully that the mother thought
she had just fallen asleep. She pass
ed away at her home Friday, Febru
ary 3, 1928, at the age of 2 years
and 14 days.
Funeral services were held at the
Methodist church where a large con
course of friends gathered to help the
broken hearted parents to bear this
great sorrow that has come to them
so suddenly.
Besides the parents little Marion is
survived by two sisters, Wanda and
Evelyn, two-grandmothers, two
I grandfathers, several aunts, uncles
! and cousins. The remains were ten.
! derly laid to rest in the Chambers
1 cemetery.
A. C. MOHR.
The remains of A. C. Mohr, a for
mer resident of the Hainsville neigh
borhood have been shipped to Spen
cer, Nebraska, where funeral services
will be held Friday afternoon at two
o’clock.
Mr. Mohr has been making his
home in the west for the past year or
| more since the death of his wife.
The deceased leaves a daughter,
Mrs. Frank Mott, Spencer, Nebraska,
a daughter, Mrs. Newland, Dexter,
Missouri; three sons, Will and Harry,
; who are located in the west, and Al
; lan, who is in the Y. M. C. A. work
j in New Jersey.
BRICK BATS.
The Judge’s gavel cracks the bar,
i and district court is set, to let the
lawyers fight and spar on murder,
theft and debt. They call a jury, tried
and true from city, farm and dale, to
settle cases old and new, to sentence
crooks to jail. Each lawyer then pre
sents his case with ferver, vim and
heat, while tears start trinkling down
his face, before he takes his seat. The
witnesses then duly swear to tell the
truth—no more. They bite their nails
and pull their hair—they fear the
lawyer’s roar. The stage is set—the
fight is on—objections fill the air, the
lawyers, faces grim and drawn, like
lions in the lair, demand that justice
must be done and then when they are
through, the jury files out one by one,
to think, and smoke and chew. The
bird on trial will go scot free or else
he’ll go to jail. It’s clear as mud to
you and me, as jurors we would fail.
It leaves a qustion in our mind—
should lawyers win with force—or
taking facts that they can find—let
justice take its course.—Brick Smith.

Why Raise
Poland Chinas
Poland Chinas are the farmers’
utility breed of hogs—the farm mort
gage lifters.
Poland China sows are good
mothers. They farrow and raise large
litters of strong, fast growing pigs.
Litters of 10 to 14 are common.
Poland Chinas have good feet and
legs with plenty of bone and strong,
arched backs. Their fine, glossy coats
denote easy feeding qualities.
Poland Chinas will fatten at any
age and produce what the public de
mands—superior quality of meat and
lard.
Poland Chinas are adapted to all
climatic and feed conditions. They
produce pork cheaply from Canada to
the Equator.
Poland Chinas produce more pounds
of pork per pig or per litter at any
given age than any other breed.
Poland Chinas have the world's
heaviest litter and 10 of the 13 two
ton litters produced in four years.
Poland Chinas are best for pig club
work because of their superior size
and easy feeding qualities.
Poland Chinas are preferred by
packers because the carcass gives the
highest dressing percentage.
In the carcass contest at the Inter
national for 14 years, about 1,000 hogs
of all breeds were entered. All the
pigs were chosen for the same pur
pose, viz: To Win The Carcass Con
test—regardless of breed.
The breeds in the order of dressing
percentage as reported by Armour’s
Livestock Bureau, are as follows:
Dressing
Breed Percentage
Poland Chinas . 83.62
Hampshire _ 82.44
Berkshire _ ___ 82.29
Chester White .. 82.27
Duroe Jersey _ 81.90
