LEONARD SHOEMAKER, Township Clerk. On The Sidelines By Observer The outstanding games and play ers of the Holt County Tourney i still the talk this week so we will also chime in with our ideas. The outstanding player of the I tournament seemed to be Harlan Mille. senior in Chambers High school. His performance in the Ewing and Inman clashes far out classed any player at this tourna ment. This honor as well as Cap tain of the County team was given him by the ten coaches of the turnament teams. Four players from O’Neill earned places on the Tournament team, they included: Bill Ryan, John Shoemaker and Ted Sirek of St. Mary’s and Dale French from the O’Neill High. Other selections were: Kent Ttotherham and Carl Shmiel, Ewing; Frank Kubart, St. Joseph’s Atkinson; John Babcock and Neal .McKee, Atkinson. All our predictions except one came out as doped on the Holt County Tournament. This makes our average for the first week 889. Butte this year seems to have a fire-house team from the trounc ing they gave O’Neill last Monday. From all reports Adkins, the Butte star, has really an eagle eye which is a real advantage on any team. Butte already has put itself up as a real threat for the Champion ship of this District. The officiating at this last County Tourney seemed to be the best in recent years. The St. Mary’s team has been in five tournaments in the last few years, winning two and being run ners-up in the other three, which is still quite a record. New pads have been installed in the O’Neill High gymn to protect the players from hurting them selves on the walls. The O’Neill grade school team defeated the St. Joe grade school 24-9, Monday afternoon. Sport Comings Friday, January 17—Neligh over O’Neill. Friday, January 17—St. Mary’s over 1’age.

Schulz, of O’Neill, a former Pierce business man, arrived Sun day to visit a part of the week with his mother. Mrs. C. F. Schulz, and brother, Carl, and celebrate his birthday. In recent years this has been an annual custom. Robert operates a grocery store at O’Neill and reports business good. The country around O’Neill is given over to cattle raising and much hay is grown, so Bob says they don’t have to depend on crops for business. Robert operates what is known as a streamlined grocery. He mov ed into this building about three years ago. This building is built and furnished much like grocery i stores in the large cities—only on a smaller scale. It has a low ceil ing, the shelves are different from I those in an ordinary grocery store, ! and it has a lighting system thnt I is bound to be attractive. Robert’s two sons assist their father in the store. Robert offici ates as window decorator and writes the signs for the store—also the advertising in the papers. Robert says you have to keep up with the modern trend in ad vertising if you expect to make good—that’s part of today’s com petition in business. Many former Pieerce county peo ple are either located at O’Neill or in the large trade territory of O’Neill, and Robert knows them all.—Pierce Call. 'Prices Advance Further At Livestock Auction Last Monday’s livestock auction was very active with the demand brisk on practically all kinds. Re ceipts were heavier than a week ago and there was a ready outlet for the entire offering. Prices ad vanced to new levels and the un dertone was strong. The day’s run included a consid erable number of good to choice calves. Steer calves of light weight and fancy quality reached the ex-1 treme top of 113.7ft per^ hundred. Others in this class ranged mostly from $10.50 to $12.50 depending on weight and quality. One had of heifer calves, averaging 325 paid $10.50 and another load, weight 3fi6 brought $10.10. Yearling steers of light weight earned as much as $10.75 w'ith a few outstanding individuals going higher. Bulk of this class sold from $0.80 to $10.50. Heifers in this class were rather scarce and prices reflected the clay’s advance. Good young fleshy cows were popular and the best of these reached $0.05 with an extreme top of $7.10. Bulls made a sharp ad vance and $7.30 was the extreme top in the day’s sales. Hog prices continued to advance sharply. Bulk in the butcher class sold at $7.75 with a few reaching a $7.90 top. Sows sold mostly at $6.65 to $6.60. Light lights were quite plentiful and soared upwards as high as $9.40. About 75 sheep were here and prices remained fully steady to a little higher than a week ago. The next regular sale will be held Monday, January 20. BRIEFLY STATED Mr. and Mrs. M.

Steffen of the Nebraska State Employment Service office Norfolk reports that 1826 placements were made by his office in 1940. Of this total 998 were private placements, on which increased emphasig is being placed. At the close of 1940, 3004 per sons were actively seeking employ ment. while during the year 1728 new applications for jobs were made. The Norfolk office serves the ft Mowing bounties: Antelope, Boyd, Brown, Cedar, Dixon, Holt, Keya Paha, Knox, Madison, Pierce. Rock, Stanton and Wayne. Last year the 20 Nebraska State Employment Service offices made 33,908 job placements, over half of them in private jobs. In 1940, pri vate placements outnumbered pub lic placements for the first time. Curtailment of WPA piojects and near completion of the big power and irrigation projects has result ed in a drop in public placements. The increase in private placements, however, offsets that reducti n. Manager Walter A. Steffen urges workers to inquire at the employ ment service office before leaving the state in search of defense pro ject jobs. “Other states constantly ask us to publicize this warning, informing us that migratory labor is being handled in a manner that will assure placement if they will only follow the proper procedure,” he said. Southwestern Breezes (Continued from page 1.) down his contributions to union funds. My observation run to the conclusion that the more compet ent element of craftsmen were not union men at heart but had accept ed unionism as a labor situation in which they had indifferent interest.
