A vote of the other sixteen members of the class gave the negative the ad vantage over their opponents by the narrow margin of a nine to seven ma jority. DOMESTIC SCIENCE. And the Raid Begins. The Domestic Science girls began raiding the kitchen Thursday in prep aration for the semester of cooking. They scrubbed the sinks, tables and drawers, washed the dishes and other utensils, and cleaned the cupboards with much energy as they are very anxious to start cooking. Although they are very anxious to start it is very evident that if they asked the upper classmen they might find out that it is not so terribly much fun to stand over a hot stove and stirr something whether ones arm is tired or not. Eh! What, you suppose class men who know? But let the Fresmen go to it for they may make better cooks than some of us after all. Who knows? Nobody knows. Life is like that. Christmas Candle Salad. Lettuce leaves 2 bananas 1 slices pineapple (canned) 1 green pepper 4 Brazil nuts (shelled) Mayonnaise dressing On individual platen-make nests of lettuce leaves and lay a slice of pine apple in each nest. Peel the bananas, scrape them and cut in halves, cross wise, paring the cut end so that the banana will stand upright in the slice of pineapple. Insert a piece of Brazil nut in the top of each banana, and make a handle of a narrow strip of green pepper or celery. Just before serving the salads, light the Rrazil nuts. (The oil in the nuts will burn for some minutes.) EIGHTH GRADE Patrice Robertson spelled down the class Friday. So many being absent last week, much of the time was devoted to re viewing and helping those who are not up to the standard. The class cleaned and polished their desks during the week. All but four reported for school Monday morning. KINDERGARTEN. There were only six pupils in Miss Turner’s kindergarten class out of eighteen the first of the week; the lat ter part of the week there were less. This is due to the Epidemic. The kindergarten pupils have been decorating their room for Christmas with Christmas bells and Christmas stockings. We know that all the little kiddies are looking forward for the arrival of .Santa Claus Christmas Eve. Howard Medlin, one of the members of our newspaper staff has been out of school for over a week. Howard has been sick with the flu. We are all glad to see him back and especially the News Writing Class. DO YOU KNOW? That the Pince of Wales was the most photographed man in the world ? That “Harvest Moon” and “Hunters Moon” are expressions 1706 year old? Cotton sheeting for beds was first woven in 1850. The author of the Star Spangled Banner belonged to the Episcopal church ? The governor of New York and the Mayor of New York get the same sal ary of $25,000. That the Erie Canal was first opened I in 1825.

Some are made with skimpy, short staple cotton. Some have an overdose of “filler" in the rubber of the tread Some are long on looks and short on quality. But you won’t need a microscope to be sure that the Goodyear Tire you get from us is a real buy. Goodyear mileages tell the story of “The World’s Greatest Tire.” Goodyears are performing so satis factorily for our customers that they invariably come hack—not with a kick but with a boost, and for another Goodyear when they need tire equip ment. We have your size—in fresh, new stocks—at low prices. Mellor Motor Co. THE FORD FILLING STATION O’Neill, Nebraska our new school buildings of the county.

Car illustrated is Model C29, five-passenger Sedan, with 4-specd trans mission (standard gear shift), $1985. All prices at factory. Owners, after many months experience with the Graham-Paige four speed transmission, enthusiastically endorse its performance. Fourth, used most of the time, gives a new smoothness and swiftness—third, a quiet internal gear, provides rapid acceleration in traffic, and up steep hills. The gear shift is standard. You start in second — first, in reserve, is seldom used. A six or eight is at your disposal. Jl&dtp'h. $ c/iUi '(.CLsruS JtArkd ^'CL^/iasm* Come in and DRIVE^a Car Yourself Dealer: J. M.
