Mr. and Mrs. Baker made a pre
Thanksgiving trip to Albion last
week.
Old timers are beginning to feel
they would rather pluck a rose
than make a snowball.
f Casper Addison and family were
called to O’Neill last Friday by the
death of Casper’s father.
Mr. and Mrs. Roblyer of Atkin
son were with Mr. and Mrs. Saun
ders for the Thanksgiving dinner.
The lure of the cups has deprived
some of the old age pension. That
same lure brought some of them
to the need of a pension.
“Well, Bill, how was the crop?”
“0 my share after the renter gets
his will about pay the ta^xes on
that farm.” A lot is said ifctbehalf
of the renter, but how about the
“landlord whose life’s earnings are
in the land, his share of the pro
ducts of the same going to the tax
gatherer ?
Plato reduced a legend to letters
' to the effect that the primeval man
had two faces. And according to
gossip there are still two-faced
specimens among us.
The population of Amelia is un
der 100 and its citizens have no
municipal asperations to organize
even as a village. Under the rule
of every man doing “that which is
right in his own mind” order pre
vails and stands as a forceful ob
ject lesson to over-organized com
munities.
Hung on the wall in the spacious
hall as you enter the court house,
is a tablet dedicated to the pioneers.
It was to such as John Addison,
who was laid to rest in the Mineola
cemetery last Friday after the rites
of Christian service at the Pres
byterian church in O’Neill, that
this tablet was engraved. In that
period of the long ago, now only a
memory, when north Nebraska
beckoned to Iowa, Minnesota and
the states beyond the Mississippi,
John Addison with wagon and a
splendid span of roans on his way
to Holt county crossed the muddy

Missouri at Sioux City purposing to
camp for the night at Covington,
then a nest of male and female
iniquity as the first thing to be in
countered in Nebraska. Of strong
moral fiber, a gallant and high re
gard for womanhood, which were
characteristic of a long life, young
John made camp a little further up
the river.
When I first became acquainted
with this pioneer he had not lived
many years on the homestead
which became his home until death.
Though many years my senior an
intimacy developed which enables
me to speak with certainty of his
worth as a man. John was one who
exemplified a vanishing American
type of the rugged individual.
Grief, hardships, betrayed confi
dence, reverses and disappoint
ments that would crush many an
other disturbed not his outward
serenity, though inwardly moved
by deep feelings and often heart
aches. His own reliability and
rugged honesty gave him confi
dence in others and he more than
once suffered wrong from the un
scrupulous rather than cause
trouble among neighbors. As hus
band, father, citizen, friend, John
Addison will remain enshrined as
one of the noble among us.
Retiring from this column for the
present I do so with this unworthy
tribute to the memory of a staunch
friend.
To those who mourn: The pass
ing centuries laden with the sor
row of the ages, beckon" mankind
to turn the tear-stained face to the
cross that was placed on Calvary’s
hill that a dispairing race might
find its way back to God.
“0 cross that liftest up my head
I would not ask to hide from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead
And from the ground there
blossoms red,
Life that shall endless be.”
