arations for a grand celebration

Mrs. David Adams.

depth of 726 feet today.
The Item, July 2, 1891
The new vault built onto the
Court house is nearly completed.
It is to be used by the county trea
surer and is something that has
been needed for sometime.
According to a challenge issued
by the printer* and accepted by the
hanker* those two extreme* of the
financial world assembeled at the
hall park last Saturday to decide
which profession was the more
adept with the hall. The story is
soon told. After the first inning
the bankers were not in it. They
pounded away at Bert W atson's
curve* and shoots until the dust
flew around the home plate like an
amateur cyclone and the scores that
never came were as thick
a* girls who do not refuse to eat
ice cream on the Fourth. At the
end of the fifth inning the score
stood 19 to 11 in favor of the
knights of the stick and rule.
On last Saturday Bishop Scanlon,
of Omaha, arrived in O’Neill. On
Sunday morning Bishop Scanlon
administered the sacrement of con
firmation to about 180 children in
the Catholic Church.
Yesterday afternoon at 4 o’clock
the revellers in connubial bliss
gathered a faithful nine at the ball
park to demonstrate the fact to
the bloods who live in single bless
edness that marriage is not a fail
ure and if the way they played ball
can be taken as a criterion they
surely made their point. The mar
ried men were represented by Ed
Butler, S. C. Sample, Tom Golden
Sanford Parser, John Murphy, Geo.
Clark, Elmer Merriman, Cheave
Hazelet, Hauk McEvony and J. W.
Firebough. The unmarried men,
or the boys who always carried
the idea that marriage was a dis
mal failure, were: Tim Hanley.
Frank Mann, Charles Towle, Miles
Gibbons, Will Adams, Fred Swing
ley, D. H. Cronin, Clyde King and
Will McBride. Doc Matthews was
the umpire and the game ended
with a score of 15 to 32 in favor of
the benedicts.

How this Certified Record can spell new Oil-Savings-new Engine Safety—for You .
. * ' 1 ' l v h.t
You get the oil that outlasted 5 other
highly reputed brands by 74% to 161%
in Certified Competition, when you
change to this proved-in-ad vance new
oil named
CONOCO N# MOTOR OIL
—Popular-Priced
Your own engine can be fortified by new
Conoco N*/> motor oil right today, at
Your Mileage Merchant’s Conoco sta
tion. But before going on sale this new
oil proved that a regular 5-quart fill
could establish startling extremes of en
durance, protection and miser-economy.
Fantastic Death Valley brings
Your Evidence
Death Valley seems to shimmy—like
heat at your furnace door. And down
on this desert impartial observers
watched 6 identical stock cars run at
57-mile speed, torture-testing 6 quality
oils including new Conoco N*h oil. No
let-up, day on day, till each oil gave
out and junked its engine.
Even the best competitive oil in the
test was outlasted 5,683 miles by
Conoco N *5 oil. And one "rival” was
■
outlasted all of 8,268 miles by new
Conoco Nf/> oil. Certified.
All this New Economy how?
America has long known Conoco best
for making it possible to give any en
gine oilplating .. .lubricant that can’t
all quickly drain down, but must stay
plated up—alert against wear in ad
vance—not waiting till oil-flow starts.
Oil-plating comes from a rare syn
thetic ... man-made under the Conoco
Germ Processed oil patent. And Conoco
motor oil still brings oil-plating
— but not only that!...
In addition this new oil brings
Conoco’s latest synthetic—Thialkene
inhibitor. It inhibits—controls—the ef
fect of foul "leftovers” produced by
every engine’s normal firing. Otherwise
uncontrolled oil spoilage could easily
start. In oils that let this spoilage start,
it spreads like a rumor—gets worse,
faster and faster. But now that’s nipped
in the bud by Thialkent inhibitor, in
new Conoco N th oil.,. U. S. Patent
2,218,132. This oil stays more like its
own good self. Then your engine will,
and that saves oil... as demonstrated
by the long life of Conoco Nth in piti
less Death Valley.
You’ll never give your own engine
such a "trial by torture.” You wouldn’t
pass up your regular time for draining.
Authorities say,"Don’t!” But you can
pCpTiriCn 1 hereby certify that
ULIIliritU the Death Valley Test
and related work were thoroughly and
fairly conducted. Engine Destruction
occurred in each case at the mileage
