JOHN CARR RESIDENCE
DAMAGED BY FIRE
The fire department were called to
the residence of John Carr on the
corner of Douglas and First streets,
this forenoon. The fire was confined
to the attic and roof over the main
part of the house.

insurance.

LOCAL NEWS
Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Hiserote and
daughter and Mable Hatch, all of
South Sioux City, Nebraska, came
last Friday for a visit at the home of
Mrs. Hiserote’s parents Mr. and Mrs.
M. F. Eveland.
Mr. and Mrs. W. Warner; Mr. and
Mrs. John Osenbaugh; Mr. and Mrs.
Dean Streeter; Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Haffner; Mr. and Mrs. Pete Here
ford were guests Sunday night at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Willis
Bowen, at Orchard.
The Nu Fu Club were entertained
by Mrs. C. J. Kimbrough at the home
of Mrs. Floyd Pilger last Friday
afternoon. Mrs. G. A. Mitchell won
the high score prize and Mrs. Ernest
Young won second prize at Bridge.
The husbands were invited in for the
evening.
John Fiala, who resides about nine
miles southeast of O’Neill, sued the
State Farmers Insurance Company
in county court Tuesday for the loss
of a cow the plaintiff claimed was
killed by lightning. After the exam
ination of many witnesses the court
found for the plaintiff.
Joe Nekolite residing in the south
eastern part of the county, brought
suit in county court Tuesday against
Frank Eppenbach, a merchant of Ew
ing, for the amount due on some
corn; Mr. Eppenbach filed a counter
claim against Mr. Nekolite to offset
the claim against him. The Judge has
taken the case under advisement.
L. K. Hough, accompanied by his
father, Clark Hough and Percy Grass
drove over to Early, Iow'a, last Sun
day. Clark Hough stopped at Cor
rectionville, Iowa, for a visit with his
son Charles. They all returned home
Monday, accompanied by Mrs. Cora
Hamilton and Mrs. L. K. Hough who
have been visiting relatives there for
a week.
Bess Gearhart Morrison, who is
scheduled to read “The Fool” at the
Presbyterian church next Sunday
evening, is expected to arrive in
O’Neill Friday morning. She will re
main at the Golden hotel until after
her appearance at the church.
H. G. Berg, district representative
and W. R. McNary, territory repre
sentative for the Dodge Brothers car
were in O’Neill Wednesday looking
up some sale prospects. The editor
enjoyed driving one of the new model
sixes; driving one of these new mod
els is certainly a treat; they have an
all-steel body electrically welded
which makes them safer in case of
an accident than the old touring
model that was the property of the
editor for several years.
Mr. and Mrs. Art Cowperthwaite
expect to leave their winter quarters
at Tampa, Florida, and start for
home about the first of the month.
Art sends “77” Waid a clipping- tell
ing about the capture of a six foot
sea-going rattler by amateur fisher
men eight miles olf shore in the Gulf
of Mexico. Rattlers have been known
to swim across small bayous but this
is the first one ever found that far
out to sea; for that reason it will be
put on display in St. Petersburg.
The rattler was headed for Havana,
Cuba. We don’t know whether or not
Art was with the party who captur
ed the reptile but “77” is willing to
wager a small amount that Art had
something to do with landing the
snake.
Ralph Mills, son of Mr. and Mrs.
R. II. Mills of this city, has been
working on a ranch for a man by the
name of Oakes, down in Custer coun
ty. While Ralph and Mr. Oakes were
husking corn last Friday, Mr. Oakes
was stricken with heart failure and
expired suddenly. It seems that Ralph
was some distance ahead of Mr. Oak
es, and when he came to the end of
the row, he took his load to the house
which was about a mile away. Ralph
looked after the chores and when Mr.
Oakes did not come home, he, in com
pany with another man, went to the
corn field where they found him lying !
upon the ground dead. The body was j
taken to the nearest house; the cor- j
oner pronounced heart trouble as the :
cause of his death. The remains were i
taken to Ansley for burial.
ACHIEVEMENT!
The Seven Claims in
Conoco’s Challenge that
Brought this Amazing Pub
lic Acceptance of Conoco's
Germ-Processed Motor Oil
"B Combines with metal surfaces and
never leaves bearings and other work*
ing parts.
Refined from carefully selected par
* affin base crudes by patented pro
cesses. That means stability.
3
Positively increases gasoline mileage
by reducing friction. That means
economy.
jA Will not break down under cylinder
* wall heat. That means less oil con
sumption.
K Substantially reduces motor wear in
starting because this oil penetrates
metal surfaces and stays there. Other
oils require 15 to 20 minutes to lubricate
all moving parts.
Crankcase dilution does not sirlo’ji!-/
impair its “oilineso" value, TL.:
mean , greater motor protection.
^9 Will lubricate efficiently r.‘ si;':-. -»
® temperatures. That means thoroughly
de-waxed oil.
Since You Read This
CHALLENGE
on November 14th, 1929
An Army of
American Motorists
has Changed to
CONOCO
Germ-Processed Motor Oil
Have you noticed that Conoco stations have been
busier in the past few months? The reason is, of
course, that amazing new oil, Conoco Germ-Pro*
cessed.
Introduced only last November, this revolutionary
motor lubricant has startled even its makers by its
instant public acceptance.
There’s a moral for you in this wholesale change
of oil-buying habits by die motoring public. Every
one realizes now that something happened in die
motor oil business when this new oil was announced.
When you start using diis oil you’ll realize it too.
By providing more economical car operation, by
guaranteeing a radical reduction in motor wear, and
particularly, by penetrating metal surfaces and pro
viding constant lubrication under every conceivable
operating condition . . . Conoco Germ-Processed oil
sets up a new gauge of motor oil merit.
We firmly believe that you will buy no other oil
except Conoco Germ-Processed oil after using it for
a fair period of time. Won’t you make that trial
to-day, at any station bearing the Red Triangle?
