Last Monday, Odd Fellows’ Day in
Loup City, was a most disappointing
one to our brothers of the Three
Links, inasmuch as the day was rainy
and disagreeable and spoiled almost
all the enjoyment scheduled for the
day. Extensive arrangements had
been made for a big time at .Jenner’s
Park, all of which had to be aban
doned on account of tiie heavy rains
of the night previous and the murky
weather of tiie day which prevented
not' only the proper celebration of
tiie day, but also deterred the crowds
from Sargent, Arcadia. Comstock and
! surrounding country from coning in
I to tiie celebration. However, quite
! a number attended from Sargent, ac
j eompanied by tiie Rebekah team,
who gave a very complete drill in
j Society hall in the afternoon, where
! a portion of tiie program was pulled
i off. Notwithstanding the weather,
quite a number were here and made
the best of the hours together. Not
Swung an active Odd Fellow, the
writer did not attend what festivities
were had. but as nothing can dampen
the enthusiasm of the members of
one of the greatest orders the sun
| ever shone upon, we can assure our
; readers that the occasion was made

ATTEMPTS SUICIDE
Ltchfield Man Tries to
End His Life.
The marriage of a young man to a
woman several years older than him
self, a home disrupted by the pres
ence of three children who were the
offspring of a former husband, an at
tempted suicide and journey to Lin
coln that his life might be saved if
local physicians could do it—these
are a few of the recent events in the
life of Frank Ilartman, a Litchfield
farmer, who was brought to Lincoln
late Saturday afternoon with a 22
calibre bullet lodged in his right
temple.
Frank Ilartman was married a few
years ago to a widow, whose husband
had left three children and little
money with which to care for them.
Hoping that she might secure a home
for the little ones, she forsook the
city life that she had been accustom
ed "to and became the wife of Hart
man. From the first, Litchfield gossip
had it, the married life of the couple
was unhappy. Finally a disagreement
arose over the children of the former
husband, and finally the wife left and
took the children with her.
Despondent and lamenting his lot,
Hartman early Saturday morning
made an attempt on his life. He
used a 22-calibre rifle, holding the
weapon at arms length while he pulled
the trigger and sent the bullet into
his left temple, severing the optic
nerve and blinding his left eye. The
neighbors found him lying on the
floor of his house an hour after the
accident, but still conscious and able
to relate the details of the attempt
on his life v.nd to explain the reason
for it.
In a hope that better medical aid
could be had in Lincoln, Hartman
was brought to this city. He was
taken to a local hospital, where it
was reported late Saturday night
that his condition was serious and
that his chances of recovery small.—

“Something Different
Something Better'*
The Patented Two
Flue Construct ion, the
facility to heat six griddles
with direct draft damper
open, the quick heating
reservoir and the ease of
heating water in it as
quickly as with a teakettle,
are some of the special
features and dualities of
LAUREL STEEL RANGES
that make them what the head line reads,
j The Construction of LAUREL Ranges j$ extremely
different from that used in all others. You say, “Why, this or that
range looks just like a Laurel." True, but they are not constructed
like it. Because of their construction "Laurel” Ranges are better
ranges.
We would spell it b-e-s-t if we considered three or more
degrees of range quality. Recognizing only two—Laurel and
| contemporary makes—we say “better.” Better steel, better cast
ings, better nickel plate, better designs, better workmanship, all
contribute to the making of a better range—The Laurel.
Laurel Ranges will give “better” returns from a given
quantity of fuel and at the same time do better baking.
As “Seeing Is believing” an examination of LAUREL
Ranges will convince you that “ Laurel ” features are not to be
found in our advertising only.
