(COUNTY COURT SEAL) 37-1 O'Neill Production Credit j Ass'n Has Good Year j Farmers und stockmen in Holt, | Boyd, Wheeler and Garfield coun-1 tics have been “good pay” the last J few years, according to financial ] reports presented Thursday at the! annual meeting of the O’Neill Pro duction Credit Association. The report showed that the credit cooperative has loaned near ly 3 million dollars since it came into being seven years ago—with out one cent of loss. Over 200 livestock operator^ and farmers were on hand for the an nual meeting, featured by a review of last year’s business, talks, en tertainment and a dinner for the membership. The stockholders re-elected Otto Oberg, of Ericson, for a three year term on the board of directors. The other board members, whose terms did not expire, are L). C. Shaffer, of O’Neill, president; Otto Krupicka, of Spencer; M. K. drib ble, of O’Neill, and C. F. Clark, of Burwell. Secretary-Treasurer, James W. Rooney, in reviewing last year’s activities, pointed out that the as siciation increased its service from 107 members and about $125,000.00 loaned in 1034, to 224 members and over $555,000.00 loaned in 1040. “As a result of the steady growth,” he told members, “the as sociation has now accumulated more than $38,000.00 in earnings. These earnings constitute a cush ion of safety protecting the capi tal stock of the members and fur ther enhancing the association’s ability to supply stockmen and fanners witn dependable credit." Mr. L). Wayne McCallum, repre I senting the Production Credit Cor poration of Omaha, congratulated the membership on the association’s steady progress. The theme <of his address was “P. C. A. Fundamen tals”—stressing cooperation. Mr. L. N. Burch, Executive Vice President of the Federal Intermedi ate Credit Bank oi Omaha, spoke briefly on the topic of “Where the Money Comes From." He said credit will be ample this year to finance all sound agricultural enter prises. Mr. and Mrs. H. J. Birmingham, Joe and Danny Gallagher returned on Sunday from Denver, Colo., where for the past week they at tended the Denver Live Stock 'show. I 1 ‘ ■ 4 ^ - Music Ijovers Will Enjoy A Treat Monday Evening The vocal music department of the O’Neill High School will pre sent a concert in the high school auditorium Monday, January 27, J041. at 8:00 P. M. This will be a program of approximately one and one-half hours in length and pre senting both large and small vocal groups. A number of people are singing solos for the first time and also one group is new in the O’Neill High School, the Madrigal Group. The Madrigal as a type of song first appeared in Italy in the 14th century as a secular part song. The madrigal was lost to music for a number of years, but has recently been revived. In madrigal singing, each of the voices has a special melody and special entrances, which makes madrigals rather dif fieult to sing, but very interesting. In early times they were sung by 'formal groups in which each voice more or less improvised its own part—corresponding somewhat to the modern “jam session" but with a different type o fmusic. The informality is still carried out in the singing of madrigals as far as possible. Come and hear your people per form.

ATTEND Vocal Concert Being Presented By Vocal Department O’Neill High School Monday, Jan. 27 H. S. Auditorium Admission: 10c—20c On The Sidelines By Observer This week there seems to be I nothing new on the sports horizon I so let’s look towards the last week I and see what it held in store for us. Before we take into considera tion another thing, we want to congratulate Coach Anderson and his boys for Che defeat rendered to I Neligh last Friday night. We dop ed them to come out on the wrong end of the score hut, ah yes, we underestimated them. This Friday night, January 24 marks the opening of the first At kinson Grade School Tournament sponsored by the faculty of Atkin son High. Teams participating will be Valentine, O’Neill Grades, St. Joseph’s, Ewing, Bassett, St. Mary’s, Long Pine and Atkinson. For this tournament St. Mary’s and Valentine were ceded. This tour-| nament will give you a real look ; at what the future stars of North-1 east Nebraska will look like. There has been some talk going! on in Omaha to obtain in that Metropolis the first major league; baseball team to ever come into Nebraska. At present there is but one recognized team in the state besides the Junior Legiei; teams1 and that is Norfolk of the Western; League. Omaha is bargaining with some majir league club to obtain our first city as a farm. O’Neill High lost a valuable man last Monday whan-Bob Mitchell was forced to check in his suit as bas ketball interfered with his new job, but a few days later they received a new player int > their racks again, j Don Lowery who has been ineligible ■ for the first semescer again took i up his first team suit and began toj practice. St. Mary’s h<is mn up another' record this year by so far winning 12 >«U of 16 gam s thi. season. Sport comings Friday, January 24—St. Mary’s over Butte. Incidentally our predictions for last week came out half and half to give us a .500 average. Senator Asimus Active In State Legislature — I Senator Asimu- introduced two j bills in the legislature the past I week. One was to reduce the | fishing and hunting licenses to $1.00 I for both, instead of $1.50 for both i as now charged. The other was to j make the automobile and license ! tax payable semi-annually, instead of all at once at? the beginning of the year, as at present. They both have merit, but it takes so much money to run things at Lincoln and if it is cut off of one item of tax •ation it will be placed on another.

Continental Oil Company Will Still Use Country Papers During 1941 Ponca City, Okla., Jan. 20—Con tinental Oil Company in 1941 is again allocating to newspapers a major portion of its yearly ad vertising budget, it was announced at the company’s general offices here today. Although Continental used al- • most every kind of advertising j medium, the company has for sev eral years spent the greater part of its advertising dollar with news papers. More than 1,300 news papers throughout the United States will share in this year’s ex penditures, it was stated, and the advertising is expected to reach more than 25,000,000 readers. Small town newspapers will again share in the company’s plan as extensively as metropolitan news papers.

The 1941 advertise ments will continue to feature the quality products and outstanding service of the company’s local “mileage merchant.” J. R. Miller went to Ainsworth Tuesday on business.
