that the present Louisville road is a
disgrace and a shame to the entire
state of Nebraska.
It is an Indisputable fact that the
decreased cost in operating automo
biles over gravel roads is far greater
per individual and car owner, than
the cost of graveling. That is the big

Feeling that there is a great need
for more knowledge of the goo'd old
hymns of the chirstian church, the
music department of the general fed
eration of Women's clubs has prepar
ed for a nation wide campaign in the
direction of the better knowledge of
the hymns among the young people.
Following the desire for a better
knowledge pf the hymns the Sunday
schools of this city are conducting a
contest that is to last until in May
and which requires the child to learn
the first line of the hymn and the
author as well as composer of the
hymn. The list of hymns selected for
the contest include the following!
1. "Rock of Ages."
2. "Silent Night, Holy Night."
3. "Blest Be the Tie That Binds."
4. "A Mighty Fortress Is Our God "
5. "Nearer My God to Thee."

ing." 7 "Adeste Fideles."

The public library here has on its
shelves a work, "The Hymns and
Hymn Writers of the Church, that
will be found materially valuable in
the study of the hymns.
EMPTY OUT BEVERAGES
From Saturday's Daily
It was a dark and murky day yes
terday, the forces of nature seeming
to be in keeping with the ceremony
that Sheriff Bert Reed conducted at
the corner of Fourth and Main
streets. The sheriff, assisted by Dep
uty Sheriff Scott brought forth from
the resting places in the vault of
County Attorney Kieck, sundry and
divers bottles and cans that were
reputed to contain intoxicating
liquor and more than the one half
of one per cent of alcoholic content
and proceeded to open the bottles
and distribute the liquor into the
sewer. From a distance a number
watched the ceremony and a few
were seen to wipe away a tear as a
particularly "wild" bottle was open
ed and the contents gurgled on down
the sewer. From the sacrifices made
by the sheriff the fish in the vicinity
of the sewer mouth will have a spree
all of their own and appreciate the
fact that they have been given a
little celebration in anticipation of
the springtime season that Is fast ap
proaching. Safl!!
