The North western with the many friends of Mr. Foster will congratulate him over the appointment and feel satisfied Fred will be a faithful and efficient servant of Uncle Sam, and serve the patrons of the route in tip-top shape. Bro. E. A. Brown left Tuesday morning with his wife for their new home at University Place. Miss llora remaining here to finish her school, where he engages in the printing business as one of the principal stock holders in the Claflin Printing Com pany. Bro. Brown has lived here from boyhood to the present time, and as boy, man, editor and publisher of the Times for many years, is well and favorably known. In every res pect, Ed. Brown is one of nature's noblemen and our entire people, ir respective of person will regret losing him from his old home, from business and church relations, and will with us unite and wish for himself and family unlimited success, prosperity and happiness in his new commercial and social relations. To the editor of the Northwestern, his going will be especially regretful, as in the five years of our residence in Loup City, his has been the glad hand that has most welcomed us and lent of his kindly aid and assistance in making our business and social relations most pleasant and profitable. Coming here a stranger, Bro. Brown neither ex hibited nor felt any restraint or un pleasantness because of the fact we were both in the same business, but on the other hand used of his kindly offices to help rather than hinder our success in the same field of labor. God bless Ed Brown; he will always have a warm place in the most sabred temple of our memory. The past few days the Northwestern has been visited by several substantial residents along Clear Creek in west Sherman, who told of the exasperat ing work of general thieving over there, and which was not confined only to chickens and othet feathered bipeds by a long distance. For quite a time that section has been ravaged by a general thieving outfit, who seem to know when farmers are absent, or have no alarm clocks in the shape of canines, and numbers have suffered from the detestible work of the worst species of humanity—sneak thieves; losing hay, corn, pieces of machinery and innumerable articles of various kinds, until patience ceases to be a Virtue, and as one gentleman said, and he is one of the most reputable farmers of that section, this kind of work has got to be stopped and if the law does not do it the people will do it themselves by filling a few hides with perforators. He said the citi zens of the west end were first for law protection and if it did not ac complish the purpose then they would protect themselves. If this item should come to the notice of any one prone to commit depredations in that neighborhood, it would be wise, know ing the determination and veracity of such men as have spoken to us as above, that they either stop their nefarious work, make a change of base of operation, or be prepared to pay a surgeon to mend their carciiss<s at some later date. A hint to the wise is sufficient. Educational Meeting On Friday evening, April 9th, the second educational meeting of the year was held at the M. E. church. Good weather, more .convenient time and place, and better advertising called forth a much larger attendance than the first meeting. The meeting was called to order at 8:30 by the chairman, Supt. O’Connell. After a song and the invocation by Rev. Montgomery, a musical number was rendered bv a quartet consisting of Messrs. DeWolf, O’Connell, Mathew and Hedlund, followed by Prof. A. M. Young’s stirring and instructive ad dress on “School Room Decorations.” Opening his speech Mr. Young showed how outside assistance, unless sought by school boards for the benefit of the , teacher in his work was of no value in furthering the ends of education. In his opinion the much desired out side help is too often an obstacle and drawback to successful school work. He pointed out that one of a school’s chief assets Is its decoration; they cultivate a love for the beautiful, much neglected in this materialistic age. He urged that a picture of Lincoln and the American flag should constitute the nucleus of decoration in all schools for these have the spec ial value of inspiring a loftier patriot ism and a keener desire for better citizenship, and at the close Mr. Hen drickson arose to discuss further the subject of school decoration, and had barely started, when as it seemed, the management thought it best to have the lights extinguished in order that the audience might not be influenced by any optical impressions of the superintendent's enchanting oratory. While waiting for the re-appearance of light, we were reminded of a like custom of the ancient Greeks, that cunning race, who in a case at law always had counsel present their arguments to the jury in a dark room so that only oral persuasion might be of avail. However, this piece of an tique ingenuity caused Mr. Hendrick son to break off his discussion and in the interim that followed light was gradually and completely restored. A duet was rendered by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Leininger, followed by Mrs. A. B. Outhouse’s paper on “School Libraries and Pupil’s Reading,” in which she presented the importance and method of diverting the child’s interest from trashy, dime novel literature to im proving text-books and standard writ ings. Mrs. Jones then discussed School Visitation and Patron’s Day, and showed some of the various difficulties of both teacher and visitor on visita lion days, also the ways in which such difficulties may be avoided. The ! writer is under the impression that the county superintendent next took the floor for discussion, but the lights being a second time put out, he was now.utterly discouraged and satdown never to rise again. Nevertheless, while a second resuscitation of illumi nation was accomplished paulatim, Rev. Hawk related nis interesting ex perience as a teacher with an angry visitor supplementing with a practical illustration. Mrs. Jones' excellent dis cussion. Mr. J. S. Pedler next ad dressed the meeting on “Outside As sistance vs. Outside Resistance.” con tending in opposition to Mr. Young that a teacher's merit consisted large ly in her ability to secure outside help and overcome outside resistance. The discussion on the “The Teacher” billed for Mr. Hendrickson was given by Miss Meyers. Undoubtedly in view of the “light” trick played upon him twice in the same evening the worthy superintendent experienced the feel ing of Sir Walter Raleigh, when that distinguished knight with indecision in his soul scratched the following on Queen Elizabeth's window pane, “Feign would 1 climb, but I fear to fall,” and at the same time probably remembered the queen’s reply, “If thy heart fail thee, do not climb at all,” so he thought he would let some body else do the talking. Miss Meyers discussed briefly some qualifications of the teacherotherthan professional, which contribute much to the success of her work. As the hour was late, further discussion was dispensed with and the meeting adjourned, sine die. but the management was so pleased with the interest and attendance that they promised to make arrangements for another educational assembly as soon as possible and it is hoped that even a larger number of teachers and patrons may be present. %* Breeders will take notice that the noted stallion, Basco B.. will be in Loup City the first three days of each week during the present season, with headquarters at McLaughlin’s barn. Will Mason in Oklahoma Enid, Oklahoma, April 9, 1909. Mr. J. W. Burleigh, Loup City Ne braska. Friend Burleigh:—I promised to write you about our trip and this country, but have been so busy mov ing and getting located that 1 have not had the time to do so till now. Mr. Zimmerman and myself looked this state over carefully last Decem ber, and have been looking around considerable since we left Loup City. After considering carefully the popu lation, lay of the country, soil, water, elevation and healthfulness, railroad •facilities, etc., etc.., we hate decided on this section of the state as the most desirable place to make our future home. This entire section of the state lays 'like the best farming districts of Illinois, and reminds one very much of that state. The soil is a deep black loam, extending for miles in all directions, there being practically no bad land or poor land. This soil will grow almost anything— corn, wheat, oats, timothy^ clover, alfalfa and splendid fruit. Never saw better orchards. The farm lands within a radius of three or four miles are selling at a good stiff price, though advancing rapidly. Beyond a radius of three or four miles from this city, the finest farm lands I ever saw can be had at a very reasonable figure. A man could s^ut his eyes anc^select any quarter or it from three to ten miles out and double his money in two to four years without any effort on his part. The healthful elevation, climate, good water, good roads, close in to the next best city in the state, which with her many railroads affords the best market in the state. All this will make land values if anything will. The elevation above sea level for this part of the state is 1250 feet. They get the best of water, soft water, at from 25 to 50 feet on any lot in town or on any farm. This city is a place of 20,000 population and growing rapidly. I fully believe I am safe in saying this place will double in five years, or less time. It is only seven or eight years since it started to make a city. One can leave this city in ten different direc tions by railroad. Mr. Zimmerman is now on a trip with two pullman loads of Chamber of Commerce boost ers after the eleventh railroad, and which this point will get, without a doubt. This road will lie worth more to this city than any other road entering it and in addition will open up a large section of the most valu able farm lands in the state, whole counties of which now have no road at all. This road is assured, it is just a question oi uie course it takes mat is interesting tiie people of this good city. There were never better oppor tunities in the state to buy good land than this will afford. It will more than double every dollar invested as soon as the road'strikes it. Besides tow ns of 500 to 2000 will spring up along the line, as in a night. This state has been developing very rapid ly, but it must be remembered that it is a very new and a very large state with a world of good land ana excep tionally large and varied oil. gas and mineral resources and it can't be developed in a few montlis. There is a world of development here to be done yet. There will be a greater immigration to this state this year than ever before. We are enjoying the best of health and have been since we left Loup City. The change of climate and water hasn't bothered our baby a particle: he is just as fat and healthy as ever. The corn is all planted, fruit trees in bloom, grass nice and green and we are enjoying it fine. This letter is now longer than I had intended when I started to write it, and I must stop. We all join in sending our best regards to yourself and good wife and to the people of Loup City and Sherman county we wish all the best there is. Very truly yours, W. F. Mason. To Find Easter Even the youngest know by this time that Easter does not come on the same day of the month year by year like Christmas.
