old;
He made her smile of the sun
shine;
And He moulded her heart of
pure gold;
In her eyes He placed bright
shining stars;
In her cheeks fair roses, you
see;
God made a wonderful mother.
And He gave that dear moth
er to me.

I WISH to thank all my rela
tives, friends and neighbors
who sent cards and gifts and
those who came to visit me at
the hospital; also those who

care.

O’Neill Tops Terminal Markets
• We have been running between twenty five cents and a dol
lar over the terminal market quotations on good West coast
butcher hogs. Last week the O'Neill market had an excellent sale
on 900-pound cattle and some short yearlings. This is a different
story compared to what's been happening in some of the other
markets.
• Today (Thursday) at the hog sale, the O'Neill Livestock Mar
ket will have two registered milking Shorthorn bulls besides
the usual run of yearlings and butcher cattle.
• Whether you wish to buy or sell, be at O'Neill today for the
regular Thursday sale at the O'Neill Livestock Market.
