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. %*

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. Here is a rule
for finding when it will come:
Thirty days hath September.
Every person can remember:
But to know when Easter comes,
Puzzles even scholars some.
When March the twenty-first is past.
Just watch the silvery moon.
And when you see it full and round.
Know Easter'll be here soon.
After the moon has reached its full.
Then Easter will be here
The very Sunday after.
In each and every year.
And if it hap on Sunday,
The moon should reach its height
The Sunday following this event.
Will bs the Easter bright.
