P. would grant Sunday train service over the Ord branch, at least give it a 60-day trial service. Bpt if it does it will give no baggage nor mail service, so it won't amount to very much except a little local convenience. If they are to get Sunday service, it should be the same service given other days of the week to make it fully effective. We have added a nice series of new type especially adapted for wedding goods.

The county board was in session most of last week as a board of equalization on Friday adjourning the finish of its equalization business till today, and putting the balance of the week on general routine of work of the supervisors. A generous, almost unanimous and withal most vigerous kick was registered against the outrageous values placed upon village properties, in many instances almost doubling values, increasing others from 25 to 75 per cent. In fact so general w as the protest that we understand a blanket reduction over the whole village will be made by the board, which even then will not be sutficent to lower some proper ties to any where near their right values. However, the meeting of the board of equalization is looked for ward to as in some measure righting a bad mess of assessing. Mrs. n. m. Mat new ana Mrs. j. Burleigh last evening entertained the ladies of the Entre .'ous Club and their husbands at a 6:30 dinner, followed by an evening at cards at the home of the latter. The event and surprise of the evening was when at a given signal the house was in stantaneously flooded with electric lights. ElectricanSweetland, who had wired the house, having in the after noon kindly taken his engine and small dynamo to the editorial home and getting it attached to the w iring for the pleasant surprise, our electric lighting system nop being ready to do the business. The guests had finished a part of the dinner and twilight was deepening when the mellow light came receiving generous welcome from all. The electrican had done his work well in the wiring and not a hitch or hesitancy was forthcoming when he started his dynamo on trial in the afternoon, and the result is certainly most complimentary to him and shows he thouroughly understands the work. ^ . -V* __ V | Special Drive This Week 1 Boys Knee Pants, Straight cut | Regular 75c, 1.00 and 1.25, your choice 25 c j MEN’S PANTS AT DISCOUNT || | ■ 1.00 to 25 off on each pair 1 • I Ladies wash suits j Men's Suits I |j . . n . | In Odds and Ends 1 s at i-z price Regular price 10.50 to 15.00, On 8 | ___| Sale 6.98, Call and see them. | 1 GROCERY DEPARTMENT f jj 100 lbs oyster shells.00c S 100 lbs sugar.6 50 q NoneSuch Coffee.25 § Our Special Coffee. 30 q 1 Can best Hominy. 10 b 2 Cans Best Raspberries.35 x 2 Cans Tomatoes. 25 ^ 12 Cans Tomatoes.1 25 3 Cans Corn.. 25 v q 1 can sugar butter..35 12 Cans Corn. 90 § 2 Cans of good tender peas. “**5 100 lbs White Fish.4 25 8 Harvestor oil.per gal. 40 8 Best Cider Vinegar . •• “ 35 X 3 box postes. 25 8 3 box Egg-O-See.25 jj .2 cream of wheat.25 8 '2 grape nut.25 X Loup City Mer. Co. The Mew Homestead Law The liberality of oar Government in dealing with those who want to es tablish homes upon the public land is again shown by the new homestead act passed on June nth and signed by the President. Under this law entry Linen can make proof in three years | by showing an actual residence of 7 nohths each year: thus an entryman an hereafter secure patent to his land by 21 months' residence during three years' time instead of the no months' continued residence hereto fore required. This new iaw gives those who have already lived upon their claims three years an opportunity to offer proof now andsequre patent to their home reads. There seems to have been more or less friction the last two years lie tween the school board and the grad uating classes over the commence ment expenses. For the past num | ber of years it has been the custom here and elsewhere over the state for one of the parts of Commencement days to be class plays, and to such an extent has this been carried that class studies have been more or less seriously interfered with for a month or two months of time. In the good old days, Commencement meant that the graduating class had to a greater or less extent show their store of knowledge and mental achievement by preparing papers or addresses on given subjects, while in these modern days they are put to the test only of their ability to provethemselves trag edians. comedians or stock actors or actresses, in which only ability along histronic lines is given. To such an extent has this gone, that there seems inclined a sentiment to put a stop to it and return to the days when the graduate would make a showing of his or her knowledge gained in the school course. Our schools are not ' for the purpose of turning out actors actresses, base or foot ball players, etc., if we are correct in our judg ment. but to tit them out mentally for business and as intellectual men and women. We understand the members i of the board are personally against ' the present status of affairs and we ; trust they will come out flat-footed i against class plays and other like i foolishness, the proceeds of which the i graduates seem inclined to use in ! purchasing gewgaws, bon bons, etc., | instead of devoting the proceeds to i wards helping pay the expenses inci dent to Commencement days, as should be. Then there are other ex penses attached to Commencement days utterly out of reason. For in stance, it has been the custom here as well as elsewhere, .to have several hundred commencement invitations printed, sufficient in number for each graduate to have from 50 to 100 to mail out to their friends at the ex pense of the school district, each in vitation calling for a present to be sent the sender as a return courtesy, the recipient feeling in duty bound by custom to do so. These invitations cost upwards of 10 cents apiece, as only the very best and costliest of program stock will do for such an important occasion. Out of these invitations, the graduate receives many beautiful and costly presents, while the public pays the price of the dainty invite. As the country is just now passing through the throes of ‘•Reform,” politically and otherwise, why not a little reform along the ’ above lines?
