adjournment. All members present.
Board called to order by the Chair
man.
This being the time set for hear
ing on the request for change in a
portion of county road from Stuart
to Swan Lake, also remonstrance
against same.
PETITION
To the Honorable County Board of
Supervisors, Holt County:
We, the undersigned, freeholders
living within five miles of the Stuart
Swun 1-Rke county road, do hereby
respectfully petition your honorable
body to change the location of that
liortion of said road now running
south through Township 28-15 U> a
point about one-fourth of a mile east
of the northwest corner of Section 17
in Township 27-15, to the following:
Commencing on the correction line
at tile northwest corner of Section 6,
Twp. 28-15, running south eight miles
to the northwest corner of Section 18,
Twp. 27-15; thence running east
about a mile and a quarter along the
north side of Seetions 18 and 17,
Twp. 27-15, to u point intersecting
the Siuart-Swan Lake county road as
now designated.
Also to retain as a county road
that portion running along the north
side of Section 6, Twp. 28-15, con
necting this road with the county
road to Atkinson.
We believe that if such a change
is made it will save the county much
money in construction and mainten
ance because it will avoid many sand
hills and lakes and affords a much
better roadbed; also that it will bet
ter serve many more people in this
community than the road as at pres
ent designated.

LOCAL NEWS.
Mickey Mullen, formerly of this
city, was struck by lightning during
an electrical storm at Merriman last
Saturday.
A heavy wind storm passed south
west. of Inman last Thursday night
and demolished a large hay barn on
the Gallagher Bros, ranch: the large
hay barn on the John Carr ranch at
Stafford was also unroofed.
THE NEW MONEY NOW
BEING CIRCULATED
, O’Neill banks have received and
are placing in circulation th new size
I paper money. The bills are smaller
| in size than the former, and will be
! much more convenient to handle.
The new size will save the govern
l ment about one and one-half million
j dollars in the reduction of the cost of
! producing the money each year over
j the original cost, and the new money
is expected to stand considerably
I more wear than the old money.
It is said that the new money will
be more difficult to counterfeit than
the old style. Another feature is the
fact that all bills of the same denom
1 ination will be of the came color and
; design and will bear the same por
traits. This will be a convenience as
the public becomes accustomed to
these colors and designs. Raising a
small bill to a higher denomination
by the forging of new figures will
practically be done away with as the
raiser will not be able to change the
! color of the same bill to that of the
higher denonmiation.

SUMMARY OF ACCIDENTS
FOR THE O WEEKS
Accident statistics for Nebraska,
compiled by The Nebraska Press As
Motor vehicle accidents_
Other public accidents_
Employment—agricultural_
Employment—industrial___
Home accidents_
Total_
Of the 286 persons injured, 13
were permanently disabled.
Drowning is the chief cause of pub
lic accident deaths. About half as '
many persons were injured in public
accidents this time as during the pre
vious two weeks.
Home accidents were responsible j
for only two deaths against six dur
ing the previous period and the injur- *
ies decreased about 30%. Falls are
the cause of half of the home injur- j
ies which are divided as follows: ■
falls of children while at play, 10; ;
falls on steps, 4.
Persona injured by farm accidents !
increased from 20 to 26 during the !
last two weeks. They are divided as i
follows: farm machinery, 13; farm i
animals, 9; falls, 1; sprains and in-!
fections, 3. Harvesting machinery,,
horses and hot weather is a wonder- j
ful combination for producing acci- j
dents.
While much is being done in safe
ty work, three deaths and three sev
ere injuries in the industrial accident ’
division emphasizes the need for still '
more comprehensive safety work in ;
the field. Other industrial employ- \
ment injuries are divided as to caus- •
es as follows: power machinery, 6; .
falls, 3; cave-ins, 3; burn, 1, and mis

Total ___
199 persons were accidentally kill
ed in Nebraska during the last 12
weeks. Otf this number 30 or 15%
were accidentally drowned. Know
ledge of the rudiments of swimming
would have saved the lives of 60% of
these people.
For the benefit, of those who op
pose the drivers’ license law and to
those who feel that other laws for
traffic control cramp their style, pon
der on this one. Motor vehicles caus
ed 62% of the total of 1847 accident
casualties in Nebraska during the
last twelve weeks.
These reports will afford an excel
lent chance to check up on the work
ings of the drivers’ license law. We
plan to run a special clipping service
on that law as soon as it goes into
effect. *
1528 120 199 1847
The suggestion is made by one of
the daily papers that the authorities
should keep tab on those who are ar
rested for traffic violations, and pre
vent their securing drivers' licenses,
f«i one instance recently a coroner’s
[jury recommended that a participant
in a fatal wreck not be allowed to
i have a license.
As a result of these reports some
: towns are puting on brake test cam
paigns. We may be able to set up a
special classification for those places
that are giving heed to the enormous
number of accidents, so they can
have credit for their precautions.
South Dakota is planning to estab
lish a service similar to this. Some
national publications will soon carry
stories on this campaign.
