“AN OPPORTUNITY IS LIKE A 1»1N IN THE SWEEPINGS; YOU CATCH SIGHT OF IT JUST AS IT FLIES AWAY FROM YOU AND GETS Bl’RIEl) AGAIN.” THE FRONTIER D. H. Cronin, Omaha, Publisher Romaine Saunders, Holt county Managing Editor Entered at the Postoffice at O’Neill Nebraska as Second Class Matter. ■■ ■■ - A Message Out of the North “We worked together and helped one another.” These words of Rear Admiral Perry are the essence of how a polar voyage was consumated a quarter of a century ago. In that far north region of snow and ice and per petual frost it is a case of working together and helping together or per ishing. It is a place where the wel fare of all is the welfare of the in dividual. Each member of the ex pedition is a unit of the whole. Even the dogs share in the common welfare. If that spirit, that attitude, that sentiment is needful—is vital—to a polar expedition, will it not work j elsewhere? If essential to the few making up an exploring party, why not to the many making up the com munity in which we dwell? Are we so absorbed in our plans and schemes to get more and more for self that antagonism is fostered and hindrances j created ? A good many propositions are put forward as a solution of the difficulties of the times. The great explorer’s words come to us, being applicable here and now as ever they were in the polar circle, “we worked together and helped one another”. The athletic commission at the state I university comes under the scope and ! disfavor of the caustic pen of the' editor of the Daily Nebraskan. It j was something of a surprise to learn of a university man with the nerve to! denounce football, and he now takes on the larger job of exposing the folly of the whole athletic program. And he will have a lot of fathers and mothers out over the state ready t > cheer for him. “Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.” Over the County EMMET ITEMS Mr. and Mrs. Billy Schmohr and children, Mr. and Mrs. Carl Lorenze and son Glen, and Mr. and Mrs. White and children enjoyed a real sleigh ride ; Tuesday evening, sa they journeied to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Guy Beck-j with for a visit.
