j. ucaua> was uuc uyniiii^ uay ui
the season at Jenner’s Park, and it
was a gala day Indeed, and all Loup
City went there for at least a por
tion of the day. 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.

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
