Fatal Accident. Little Ethel, the four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Dunlap residing in the south part of this township, was accidentally burned to death last evening. The little girl was visiting at the home of her grand* mother, Mrs. Olive Sherman, in Clay township, and with three other chil dren were playing with matches, when in some way* the little one’s clothes caught on tire and she was burned so badly before the lire conld be extin guished. that she lived only a few hours.

Sargent, Arcadia and surrounding country were also well represented. The Jenner’s may well be proud of their dandy little park, as it is the finest, shadiest and best kept of any in central Nebraska. Jenner’s Park is up-to-date in every respect. In company with Will Zimmerman, we took a trip over into the west part of the county, last Friday afternoon, through Webster, Elm, Harrison and Clay townships back home. We found the crops in the very pink of condi tion. no lack of moisture and every prospect of the finest of crops. We ' saw wheat fields of forty and fifty I acres standing three feet high,beauti fully headed and could not look finer. Corn by the thousands of acres had beautiful stands, growing thriftily, clear of weeds, and showing the far mers were up-to-date in caring for their fields, and all nature .assisting to prepare a bumper of a crop. No prettier country exists than that we traveled over. That’s what makes us feel like standing up for Sherman county. Sargent was well represented in Loup City at the opening of Jenner’s Park Tuesday, a large delegation, headed by the splendid band of that city coming down to help make it a success. The Sargent band gave us some of the best music we have heard in the city for many a day, and reflected great credit on the town they represented. The gentlemen representing the membership of the band, were as follows: Leader, G. W. Peaclier: members, Messrs. Mutter, Davis, Hiatt, Williams, Ambrose. Woods, Livermore, E., C., C. E. and F.'Harriss: L. and G. Spacht, and E and R. King. Several members of the Loup City band, headed by their efficient leader, Mr. Pritchard, as sisted in making the music of the day the feature of the occasion. Among otlier great and good Sargentites, not otherwise mentioned, were Charley Freeman, the irrigation inan of Sar gent, Geo. Patsy, Fred Sidel, Major Clohn and a host of dthers, who helped the day get there. Corner-stone Laid. The laying of the corner-stone of the new Presbyterian church on Mon day evening was the occasion of an impressive and interesting service. The exercises were held on the grounds and were attended by a large con course of people. The opening number of the program was music furnished by the band, which was well received. Rev. Dr. Ray of St. Paul offered prayer. The church choir rendered an anthem in its usual acceptable manner. Words of kindly, greeting were given by Rev. Wise and Wold in behalf of their respective churches. Hon. R. J. Nightingale speaking as a business man, showed the advantage of the church to the community from a business and moral standpoint. A beautiful duet by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Leininger, after which Dr. Ray made the principal address of the evening. His ready wit and pleasant sallies kept the audience in the best of good humor, while his earnest words made a deep impression upon all. Following this address came the ceremang proper, when Rev. McEwen after briefly reviewing the inception and growth of the church, with the assistance of Mr. W. A. Hayes, one of .the trustees, placed the corner-stone in position and solemnly declared it I “Laid, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.” The Regale Quartet won fresh re nown by the rendition of “We’re a Presbyterian Band” and then while the band played again the large tables were quickly liilled and tilled again and again until about fifteen gallons of ice-cream and a dozen and a half cakes were exhausted. The occasion gave people a chance to look over the Building In course of construction and everyone seemed pleased with the arrangement which will be most complete. Practically every inch of floor space will be utilized and when completed the edifice will accomodate between five and six hundred persons. To School Directors. Something more than a week ago, I mailed to all directors a tablet of all the blank forms needed by school district officers for the coming year. These forms are neatly put up and on the outside of the front cover will be found a synopsis of such portions of the school law as are of most import ance to school officers. It will soon be time for the directors Of the several districts to make their annual and census reports. These reports should be made with great care, as upon these and the fact of your hav ing maintained school during the past year depends your share of the state apportionment. Be sure that every item is carefully considered before the entry is made in the blank form to be found in the tablet for this purpose. See that the proper amount is entered in the item showing the amount on hand on the 2nd Monday of July, 1906. Unless this amount is correct your account will have to be taken up and corrected later. You will observe that the annual report must be delivered to the county superintendent within 10 days after the annual district meeting. Fill all items and verify all results. It would be well if the several districts boards should observe the directions in the note at the bottom of the front page of the tablet above referred to. School officers should exercise the greatest care that the affairs of the district be carefully looked after. Education is expensive, but we must have it. Hvery dollar of the public school fund is sacred to the children who are now growing up, and the greatest caution should lie used that it may be properly conserved and ex pended. M. H. Mead. Co.

Our Ancestors Plowed With a Stick It was not so long ago that all manure spreading was done with ' a fork and it is only within the last very few years that there has veen a general movement toward the adoption of a machine for this purpose. People are beginning to undetstand that a Spreader, while it saves labor and is convenient, has a much more important function t0 ^Tlie^reader has come, not so much to save labor and tickle the lazv man as it has to make money for the clear-sighted American. It is not our purpose, however, to take the time here, explaining why Manure Spreaders are needed. Everybody knows this without our paying for this space to repeat it. Improvement is “life” to machinery, the same as growth in a i man means life. This is why we say that many of the old style spreaders are dead and some of them thoroughly buried. We say this because they still adhere to such ancient principles, good in their time, but too crude to be used in a modern age like this. Avoid ex periments, but when you can get a Spreader with such a conveyor, traction surface and modern principles of construction as the Litch field Spreader emboeies, do not we pray you, pass this up for some thing that was “good enough for our grandfathers.” Just drop in and let us explain how the conveyer on the Litch field Spreader is arranged, with a saw tooth surface that grips the load firmly aud when this conveyer moves the load must positively ?o with it. No sliding under a wet, slippery load, no giving wav. t just grips the load and holds it. With the Litchfield Spreader all you have to do is to watch your team, knowing that when the beater wheel revolves tha load is being fed to it properly and the work is being done as it should be. We can show you, in the Litchfield Spreader, a machine that does not requires constant attention and inspection. You drive through the field and back to the barn. One simple motion of one lever and it is 1 all done, automatically and without looking over your shouldpr Wouldn’t this be a relief, after using some of the Manure Spreaders t that require expert handling? Just drop in and see us—No not but this machine. It will pay you. We have a little fable for next week. Read it, sure, nexc T- Nl- PEED. b. I —.II I II ———
