some of the most subdued, dark effects.
Prices range from $15 to $30, and any coat that you

At High School Convocation.
One of the ideasanlest High
school convocations of I he pres
ent school year was the one held
this morning, when Miss-Mildred
Johnson of the senior class de
lighted the pupils wilh a series of
songs. Miss Johnson was ac
companied nrost sympathetically
by Miss Dorothy Ilrilt on the
piano. The series included "The
Shoogy Shoo," "When Song Is
Sweet," and "The Rork-a-Hye
Lady." Miss Johnson has a very
sweet voice and her distinct
enunciation makes her singing at
all limes a genuine treat, for her
audience.
For next Thursday Rev. Mr.
Austin will bo the speaker nt the
High school convocation. The
pupils will be much pleased with
this announcement, for they have
hail several opportunities lo hear
Mr. Austin and have always heard
him with pleasure.
Nebraska stockmen who do
practically nothing more than an
intrastate shipping business de
clare that they will welcome the
coming of the new year wilh
especial delight because certain
provisions of the Metzger law,
enacled at I he last session of the
legislature, will become operative
at that time. Particularly is this
feeling noted among northern and
northwestern Nebraska stockmen
who do a large business than is
done fro many other part of the
stale.
The provisions of the new law,
which as a whole became effective
July (i, Mil, are believed by ship
pers to be especially enacled for
their benefit and comfort while
aboard stock trains. They relate
to the accommodations to be pro
vided on and after January 1,
MI2.
In this regard I he. Metzger
measure sets out that until that
lime a caboose or car shall be at
tached lo all slock trains for Ihe
use of those having right to ac
company carload shipments and
that the same shall be provided
wilh a toilet room nml clean
drinking water. This is being
done on all roads at the present,
time ns far as can be learned, al
though! there is some complaint
lo the effect that (he accom
modations are not sufficient and
that there are frequently so many
shippers crowded into one car
that it is impossible for any of
Iheni lo sleep while en route to
market.

which is lo become operative on

the Demand for Good Spellers
Was So Pronounced.
When we were a school boy the
principal studies were " 'readin',
rilin' an' 'rithmelic." This is a
small array of studies as com
pared with Iho curriculum of the
present rural school. Hut by ac
tual observation we know that
forty and fifty years ago there
were belter spellers in tho rural
schools than there arc today. It
may be said that on account of the
limited number of studies there
was more opportunity to become
better spellers (ban is possible
now wilh so many studies crowd
ed upon the pupils.
Measurably Ibis is true, yet
there never was a lime when Ihe
demand for good spellers was so
pronounced as right now. Many
of our boys and girls enter com
mercial establishments after
graduating from our high schools
and other institutions of lenrning.
