ALBERT ROSELER
Albert Roseler, formerly of this
city, but for the past seven or eight
years a resident of near Columbus,
Nebraska, committed suicide Monday
by hanging himself in the cow barn
on the George Adamy farm where he
was employed.
The body was discovered by Mr.
! Adamy when he returned from Col
! umbus about 4:30 Monday afternoon.
| It is thought that Albert was des
| pondent although he had not mention
] ed suicide. He had made arrange
ments to come to O’Neill to visit his
children about a week before his
death but instead of coming here he
remained in Columbus until Saturday
when he returned to the Adamy farm
slightly indisposed.
Albert was born in Illinois in April,
1878. He accompanied his parents to
O’Neill when he was a young man; he
farmed in this vicinity for many
years. He was united in marriage to
Miss Minnie Moore about twenty-six
years ago. Five children were born
to this union: Harry, Emmet, Flor
ence, Helen and Violet. Mr. and Mrs.
Roseler separated about fifteen years
ago, the children remaining with
their mother, who later married J. M.
Filsinger, of this city. Albert has
not resided in this vicinity since that
time.
The children, with the exception of
Emmet, who is not here, drove to
Columbus, Tuesday in company with
Eddie Roseler, to attend the funeral
services which were held from the
McKown funeral home Tuesday after
noon; burial was in the Columbus
cemetery, Rev. Roy H. Lewis officiat
ing.

j Valley last March from Weeping
Water, Nebraska, and have since re
sided on the Potter farm.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES
One of the most successful Holt
County Teacher’s Institutes was held
in the public school in O’Neill on last
Thursray and Friday, October 2nd
and 3rd. The attendance was perfect
and the teachers attended every ses
sion of the institute conscientiously,
for which the instructors expressed
their appreciation and had many
good words to say for the teachers of
Holt County. The best of instruction
was given and Mrs. McLain’s address
es on her recent trip through Canada
and Alaska were of great interest
and benefit to the teachers in Geog
raphy and History work.
Dr. George W. Rosenlof, Director
of Education, whose name was pub
lished last week as one of the in
structors, was unable to be with us,
due to injuries received in an auto
mobile accident which occurred on
last Saturday evening. Both State
Superintendent, C. W. Taylor and Dr.
Rosenlof were painfully though not
seriosuly injured. During the insti
tute the teachers of Holt County
unanimously voted to send resolutions
of sympathy and hopes for a speedy
recovery to both Superintendent Tay
lor and Dr. Rosenlof. This was done
and the following letter to the teach
ers of Holt County has been received
from Superintendent Taylor:
Copy
My Dear Mr. Pease:
This will acknowledge receipt of
your letter of October 3rd, conveying
resolutions of sympathy regarding
my recent auto accident.
Kindly express to the teachers my
very deepest appreciation of this act
of theirs.
With kindest personal regards, I
am.
Very truly yours,
, , Charles W. Taylor
the school exhibit at both 'fairs
was unusually large this year and of
better quality than usual.
Much dissatisfaction has been ex
pressed as to the poor facilities for
exhibiting the school work at the
fairs, both at Chambers and O’Neill,
due to the lack of space available. A
plan was proposed to consider build
ing Educational Halls at both the
Chambers and O’Neill fair grounds.
The teachers of the county unani
mously expressed their willingness to
support such a project. If this pro
ject should be carried out, the build
ings would be paid for by the sub
scription of a small sum by each dis
trict in the county and would be dedi
cated to the school children of Holt
County. Since the educational exhib
it is one of the most interesting fea
tures of the fairs and more nearly
represents all sections of the county
than any other exhibit we feel that
this would be an important step to
ward improving our exhibits at the
county fairs as well as creating more
intense interest in education in Holt
County. It is only fair that the work
°f pur school children be given recog
nition in this wav.
