The Gargleiski family—I never
guarantee thespelling of that name
—were up from south of the lake
New Year visiting the Carpenter
family.
The three A program meets its
fate in the supreme court. It re
mains to be seen if the adminis
tration will attempt to set aside
constitutional government.
John Baker, accompanied by his
daughter-in-law, Mrs. A. Baker,
came up from southern Garfield
county and visited a part of New
Years flay with Mr. and Mrs. Hazel
baker, returning that afternoon.
As an apology for New Dealers,
and Aurora paper says “only eight
billion dollars” have been added to
the national debt. Feature a country
editor referring to a sum like that
as though it were a pocket full of
change.
Friends are glad to see Rody
Adams, the southwest’s popular
notary, able to attend to business
in his Amelia office again after
several weeks just about down and
out from an attack of a common
ailment of the season.
One reader was reported, from
the herd of Raymond Bly as the
result of the T. B. test. As seems
to be the case in most tests it
proved to be the best milk cow on
the place. Heavy milkers are par
ticularly subject to tuberculosis, a
price dairy men are paying for
over-developed milk producers.
Perhaps it is somewhat venture
some but we will risk the interrog
ation at any rate, who is or was the
handsomest man in Holt county—
past or present? Dr. F. K. Murphy,
an O’Neill physician at one time,
had it by all odds. Remember him?
Dark hair, blue eyes, classic fea
tures and exquisite complexion,
large of form and unmarried—an
alluring object to feminine fancy
and envy of all the men.
Ed. Jones, of O’Neill, club in
hand, navigated around Swan, with
the veterinary applying the T. B.
tests. Whether the club was for
service among the cattle or was
deemed expedient coming out here
was not explained. Dr. F. H. Christ
of Arcadia, stationed at Atkinson
at present and. a fine gentleman at
that, handled the hypo. Some T. B.

A number of friends were enter
tained New Year’s day at the
pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs.
Miles Minnehan in Amelia. Some
twenty-five guests gathered at the
festal board to partake of the boun
tious and exquisitely prepared din
ner, a feature of which was a num
ber of fatted fowl done to a turn.
The guest list included Mr. and
Mrs. Tom Lewis and family, P. J.
and Maurice Kennedy, Mr. and Mrs.
H. L. and Lloyd James, Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Waldman and daught
er, Miss Mary Clare, Miss Dorothy
Miller, Messrs. Tom Salem, Mike
Otte, Mike Kearns and Stephen
Price. The occasional was hugely
etijoyed by the guests who pro
nounce the Minnehans charming
entertainers.
The funeral of Will Sammons,
held in the Methodist church at
Amelia Thursday of last week, was
largely attended, citizens of the
community generally uniting in a
last tribute over the remains of a
departed pioneer. This paper car
ries the obituary elsewhere and
need not be repeated here. The.
funeral was held at one in the af
ternoon under the direction of C. L.
Barnham. Rev. Conrad, of O’Neill,
formerly a resident of this com
munity, occupied the pulpit and
preached the sermon. A mixed
quartet sang. The rostrum, Pulpit,
organ and casket were banked with
flowers. “If a man die, shall he
live again,” was a central thought
of the discourse, the answer being
in the death and ressurection of
Christ. The body was taken to
Chambers for burial.
Every old timer has an experi
ence to relate dated Jan. 12, 1888.
If one only sat at the fireside that
day he has a memory of the worst
blizzard there ever was, here or
anywhere, recorded or unrecorded.
As a boy in the teens, my own
escape from being on the road with
a team enroute for John Halloran’s
place near Inman was only a mat
ter of minutes. With a bit of black
cloth one catches a few flakes of
falling snow and studies the beauty
of form and geometrical shapes.
Not so on Jan. 12, 1888. Snowflakes
were not falling from the clouds.

about your
winter gasoline
You will not hear your starter go slower, s*l*o-w-e-r,
s-l-o—w’-e-r before Winter Blend Conoco Bronze
starts up in this weather. Hence your car will at last
have some chance of doing the thing it was intended to
do—keep the battery charged with no outside help.
And we promise that you will be able to undearn
your old habit of leaving the choke out for blocks and
blocks, which is unnecessary with Conoco Bronze —
meaning that you won’t waste this gasoline, or get ycur
oil so thin that it needs excessive changes this winter.
Those are the things that really count in choosing your
winter gasoline—regardless of all the arguments. Please
make a careful note of what this says about our Winter
Blend Conoco Bronze, and see if you don’t say exactly
^p^ the same. Continental Oil Company, Established 1875
