quiet at the Hill, but there is always a
ealm before a storm so we are anxious

lively to transpire and cheer us up,
Tha most of the College Hill folks cele
brated the Fourth at Louisville, though
some went to Greenwood and report a
most delightful time up there, and one
of the prettiest and busiest towns iu
Cass county.
Nearly all our young people attended
the dance in Ossankops hall at Louis
ville, the night of the Fourth, and as
usual had a grand time.
School closed Thursday for a five
weeks vacation, Lester, Stander and
nenry Le-hnhoff winning the prizes for
lessons well learned. Miss Ella Bles
sington returned from Piattsmouth,
where she has been at work in the Per
kins house, to visit her parents for a
few days. Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Jack

Sunday. Harvest is near at hand ; al

of the fuest grain the county affords;
