Last Friday afternoon, Loup City
defeated Mason City on the home
grounds by a score of 3 to 0. Arcadia
was to have played, but again got
frostbitten feet and would not go up
against certain defeat, hence the
game with Mason City instead. Our
football editor was to have written
up the game, but has been so excited
and jubilant over the result that he
failed to connect with this office
since.
Arrangements were made by the
Gem people to give a series of pictures
last evening under the auspices of
the Methodist Ladies’ Aid Society

society failed to fulfill the arrange
ments and Manager Lee presented
them to the public on his own motion
that evening.
Manager Lee of the Gem Theater
left for Broken Bow this morning to
remainover Sunday, Ross Murdock

some happy denouement at any un
expected moment.
No one has brought the editor a

our cook will prepare it: just merely
catch it and bring it in: we’ll do the
rest. Again, thanks, awfully.
