That I will climb the ladder of pood fellowship without treading on the rungs of intemperance. That 1 will at all times give the devil his due, and that j will Ire equally just with my friends. That I will not use language 1 would be unwilling to have my chil dren overhear. That I will not depend upon luck to bring me what other men accom plish by hard lalror.

One of the best friends the North western has, living in the southwest part of the county, was in to see us last Saturday and took exceptions to item published a fortnight since, in which we mentioned another time tried and true reader of the North western as being the oldest sub scriber to this paper. The gentleman, who objects to us making a personal item of his call, as he was not look ing for publicity, says he also has been a reader of the Northwestern from its initial number down to the present, which according to the volume and number given, is 24 years and over, and while he is willing to divide honors insists he is just as old a reader as any, and as he laid down one of Uncle Sam's cartwheels, added, ! “And here’s for another year in ad vance. and expect to take the paper as long as it is published, and you remain good.” Meeting such sub stantial friends of the paper does an editor a world of good, and we trust the gentleman will live to celebrate the century mark on life’s troubled seas and not have to weather a storm of any consequence. And by the way. we would like to have the name and address of every reader of the North western who have been readers of the paper from its first number down to the present. Will each one send us , In his or her name and address? A Happy Reunion. December 25th was observed in a double sense at the home of Mrs. Abbie Gilbert. Besides the usual Christmas cheer it was the occasion of a jubilee over her restoration of sight and her return home after an absence of over live months. Both the weather and the occasion were conducive to the pleasure of the twenty-three guests present. It would be a task indeed to try to men tion the good things with which the table was bountifully spread. A most prominent feature of the gather ing was the meeting of three sisters and their brother, who had not all been together in nearly forty years. They are. Mr. Walter Moon. Loup City: Mrs. Pheobe Mclntire, La Porte. Iowa:*Mrs. Abbie Gilbert. Loup City, and Mrs. Lucy M. Hartman of St. Joseph, Mo. The other guests were: Judge and Mrs. Angier, Dr. and Mrs. A. S.

Angier and son, Julius, Mr. and Mrs. Milo Gilbert and family, Mr. Walter Moon, Miss Eftle Moon and Mr. Bert German. *** Entre Nous Entertain. The Entre Nous club gave a fine 6 o’clock dinner, musicaleand general evening's enjoyment Wednesday even ing to themselves and their husbands at the comfortable home of Mr. and Mrs. Carsten Truelsen. It was by far the most enjoyable evening of feast, fun, wit, mirth, music, with toasts and papers by the members and short speeches by the invited guests, that it has been our good fortune to attend since good fortune brought us to Loup City. A six course dinner was followed by all the above, with Mrs. Mathew as toast mistress, and she presided as to the uiauur uoru anu receiveu main nearly and well-earned encomiums over the grace and wit with which she in troduced those who were on the pro gramme and the apt remarks at the close of the same. Each number given was received witli the utmost pleasure, and when the hour of mid night had arrived all departed for their homes, feeling nothing could have been added to make the enjoy ment more complete, unless, indeed it were regrets for the unavoidable absence of two or three of the mem bers and their husbands on account of sickness and sorrow in their house holds. We trust these enjoyable re unions may occur many times during the year 1908. The Northwestern has received from Secretary Mellor of the State Fair Association a few reports of the Association for the vears 1901, 1902. 1905, 1906, 1907 and *1908, copies of which may be secured free by the readers of this paper as long as' they last.

Leporsy Not so Bad. “If it were given to me to choose between being compelled to live in Molokai for the rest of my life, or in the East End of London, the East Side of New York, or the Stock Yards of Chicago, I would select Molokai without debate.” Thus writes Jack London in the Woman’s Home Companion of his visit to the Hawaiian leper colony of Molokai. “In Molokai the people are happy. I shall never forget the celebration of the Fourth of July I witnessed there. At six o’clock in the morning the ‘horribles’ were out, dressed fan tastically, astride horses, mules and donkeys (their own property), and cutting capers all over the settlement Two brass bands were out as well. Then there were the pa-u riders, thir ty or forty of them, Hawaiian women all superb horsewomen, dressed gor geously in the old, native riding cos tume, and dashing about in twos and threes and groups. In the afternoon Mrs. London and I stood in the judges’ stand and awarded the prizes for horsemanship and costume to the pa-u riders. All about were the hun dreds of lepers, with wreaths of flowers on heads and necks and shoul ders, looking on and making merry. And always, over the brows of hills and across the grassy level stretches, appearing and disappearing, were the groups of men and women, gaily dressed, on galloping horses, horses and riders flower bedecked and flower garlanded, singing and laughing and riding like the wind. And as I stood in the judges’ stand and looked at all this, there came to my recollection the lazar house of Havana, where I once beheld some two hundred lepers, prisoners inside four restricted walls until they died. No, there are a few thousand places I wot of in this world over which 1 would select Molokai as a place of permanent residence.” -Notice of Guardian'* Sale of Real Estate.
