MOTHER’S DAY
1 Mother’s Day, which falls on May
! 11th this year, had its origin in a
, thought by a Philadelphia young wo
1 nia?i, Miss Anna Jarvis at whose sug
r gestion it was first observed in a
number of cities in the United Stat
es in 1910. The beautiful idea spread
rapidly until it was commended in
1913 by a joint resolution of congress
whereby that body and the executive
departments of the government rec
ognized the day. In 1914 more formal
recognition was given by congress,
when the President was authorized
to designate by annual proclamation
the second Sunday in May as Moth
er’s Day. The object of the day is to
recall memories of mothers who have
passed to the beyond and to pay spe
cial tributes of affection to the liv
ing. Few of us reflect as often as we
should upon the debt of love and
gratitude we owe our mothers.
NOON BI S SERVICE
MAY BE REINSTATED
Immediately following the an
nouncement by the Northwestern
Railway Company that bus mail ser
vice between Norfolk and O’Neill
would be discontinued on May 4th,
C. P. Hancock of this city wired
Congressman Simmons this informa
tion and asked him to use his influ
ence to have the bus mail schedule
reinstated. Congressman Simmons
took the matter up with the company
who are now investigating the value
of the service that O’Neill wrould re
ceive from the schedule; the company
discontinued the service for the reas
on that No. 11 would go west in the
afternoon and would bring the mail
that had been coming to O’Neill on
the bus that arrived here at 5:30;
this train, however, does not give us
an opportunity to send mail east
, after 10:30 A. M. until about 3:00
the following morning. If the bus
. mail schedule could be reinstated
from O’Neill to Norfolk at 1 o’clock
i as formerly, business men and bank
ers wo^ild have time to clean up
their morning mail and start it on its
way without the sixteen hour delay
which is now the case.
An effort should be made by the
citizens to have this service reinstat
ed.

FAY A. PUCKETT, OF
MEEK, NEBRASKA,
CHAMPION HEIFER BREAKER
Fay A. Puckett of Meek, Nebraska
is the latest Holt county resident to
break into the championship class.
Mr. Puckett has paid his entrance
fee and claims to be the champion
heifer breaker in Holt County.
He says that he has “broken” 19
heifers to milk since the first of Jan
uary; most of them submitted to the
ordeal during the month of April.
No ropes or “cuss words’’ are used
in training these heifers to stand
quietly; friendliness and kind treat
ment turned the trick for him.
In speaking of the matter Mr.
| Puckett said, “since this seems to be
an age of champion base hall play
■ ers, prize-fighters, golf, billiard, ten
j nis, ar.d what-not, as well as cham
| pion spellers, beauty contests and a
I host of similar events in which I can
not compete, I want to start a con
test of my own of a different class,
so I hereby claim to be the champion
j breaker of heifers to milk, by one
man, in one season, in Holt County.”
Mr. Puckett says that h£ has a
number of other heifers yet to break |
if his competitors crowd him for the !
title; along with the breaking of
these cows to milk he has taught
their calves to drink milk from a pail ;
without letting them miss a feed as
is sometimes done.
The milking of that many heifers
along with a bunch of old cowts is a
very steady pastime as well as a
very effective way of chasing the
proverbial wolf from the door.
you can t
do that!
