Did Thursday’s Snow
Set A New Record?
The “oldest inhabitant” got to
jogging his memory this afternoon
when it started to snow and snowed
hard for fifteen minutes. Several
of them could never remember
when we had snow in September
before, but Judge Malone, who has
lived in Holt county for many
years, says that we had quite a
heuvy snow here one year on Sep
tember 2-1, but that it was a good
many years ago. He says that
September 20 is probably the record
for an early snow’ fall in this
county. Let us hear from the old
timers about this.
NOTE OF THANKS
We extend our sincerest thanks
and appreciation to the good ladies
of the Altar Society, St. Mary’s
Alumnae, the men of O'Neill, and
to all individually, who contributed
so generously to the substantial
gifts we received during the past
week.
It was an agreeable and unex
pected surprise to us, in spite of
the fact, that the good people of
O’Neill have ever been solicitous
for our welfare.
Mother M. Claver
and the Community of St. Mary’s.
ECONOMY LEAGUE
The Holt County Economy League

ing winter clothing of any kind to

FRANCIS DEMPSEY
Standard Oil Servisman
says: "People come in and ask
for 'that live Power gasoline.’
They’ve found out by using lied
drown Superfuel that it's got
'Live Power’ and no mistake!”
The release of extra Live driving
energy means that your gasoline money
takes you farther—at less cost!
For one thing, this already excellent gasoline now puts
at your command more live, driving energy. This is a
big economy factor. You go farther at less cost. You’ll
find, too, that your car can sprint with the best of them;
that you can hit and hold high speed with less engine
effort. This added Live Power levels off hills remarkably.
Standard Red Crown Superfuel also contains tetrar
ethyl lead. That, as you
know, is the finest anti
knock fluid known. Yet
Superfuel still sells for
the price of "regular.”
You get greater value
when you stop at the famil
iar Red Crow n for a tank
ful of more Live Power!
STANDARD RED CROWN
SUPERFUEL _ more hve power per tja//on
Another fine gasoline: RELIANCE—a carefully refined fuel, long on mileage and low in price
