One of I he sufferers CASS COUNTY COURT HOUSE RANKS WITH THE VERY BEST That I lie present court house is among I lit bc-l today in Ihe .-late of Nebraska was einced yester day when I''.. .1. llnbinsiPii, .stale examiner of county treasurers, was in Ihe city, and while at the court house the question, "llowj do you think ('ass county's court house' lines up with Ihe oilier county buildings in the stale?" was asked him. Mr. Ilobinsou re plied that, lie considered Ihe court house in "Ibis ciiy io rank among Ihe llr.sl twelve in the stale and Dial I here were few counties that could boast of as handsome a building or one that stood the wear ami tear in such splendid shape and that the citizens of the county ought to be proud of their building in this city. Mr. Robin son is a man whose work makes it necessary fin' him to visit the different court houses through out the stale and he is in a good position to judge of the condition of the different buildings and his statement that the courl house here is in excellent shape ought lo put an end lo the wild-eyed reports that have been circulated in regard to the delipadated con dition of the building. Only a few of the larger counties, such as Douglas, Hall and Dodge, pos sess county buildings any finer than Ihe Cass county court house, and it has been a great pride to the taxpayers for years that Ihe beautiful building in this city was one of Ihe best in the stale. from Ihe tornado in Omaha Sunday was Dr. Hoy Dodge, a son of Mr. and Mrs. (leorge Dodge of this city, whose borne lay in the edge of the, storm swept, district in west Omaha. The house was badly damaged by Ihe storm and was almost shaken off the foundation, but fortunately Ihe worst of Ihe storm avoided them. The garage belonging lo the doctor was demolished and his touring car suffered very severe ly, having Ihe wind shield and guards broken off, as well as a number of minor damages. The doctor, who had been kept up Ihe night before milking calls, had retired to his room lo take a rest, when the fury of the storm broke in upon them, breaking the win dows in Ihe room, and Dr. Dodge received several cuts on the face from the Hying glass, lint it is most fortunate that he and his wife were not dealt with more severely, as other daces in the same neighborhood were lorn up in ery bad shape. I', K. Mull'iier and wife, who are parents of Mrs. Dodge, returned last evening from Omaha, having gone there al once on receipt of the news of the storm, and they stale llial sMirh a scene of si rucl ion and deal b cannot be ap preciated bv anyone until they see the ruins of Ihe many homes there.

Orcatcr simplicity in the dress of girls, limiting the duration of evening entertain ments so as not to continue later than midnight, and prohibiting entertainments that interfere with school work are a few of the regulations to govern. If to these were added rules specilically en forcing greater simplicity and economy in school commence ments ami then if all of them were adopted throughout the en tire country, the reform would be a laudable one indeed. Children of the, rich, in their efforts to distinguish themselves by costly and ostentatious dress al commencements rather than by proficiency in scholarship, set an example which poorer children, surfeited with false pride, en deavor to ape. Especially is this true of smaller communities. The real significance of graduation is thus lost sight of and 1he event becomes merely a rivalry in the exhibition of foppishness which does not mean anything and which most people cannot afford. In the matter of extravagance of school commencements, as well as in the mailers sought to be regulated by Ihe mothers of Ihe District of Columbia, parents are wont lo be loo indulgent and to defer loo readily to the wishes and desires of I heir children. It is one of. the grave misconcep tions on the pari of Americans that it is the duty of parents lo burden themselves unduly for their children's sake and to over look the fact that children are' under reciprocal duties lo par ents. More necessary lo a whole some and successful life are habits of reasonable self-denial lliau extravagant notions of dress and personal indulgence. Too frequent ly, however, parents fail to inculcate this virtue, and Ihe le-1 penally for the failure must in most cases eventually be paid, either bv I lie foolish parents I heinselves or, in later rars, by the children whose pockelbooks are inadequate, to meet their high llnv.i! ideas of propriety.
