Irvin Conger, our popular tonsorial
artist, had a mighty pleasant trick
played on him last Sunday morning
by his brothers. On his way to his
parlors on Sunday morning, where he
i was going to Dut things to right after
j Saturday’s work, he was inveigled in
i to going out to his brother, Stewart
j Conger’s, home for the day, letting
j the '‘clean-up” go for the time, and
' of course he could not withstand the
| feast of good things for dinner he
I knew were in store. In his absence
his brothers took charge of his Mi op
and placed a carpet of linoleum on
the floor, polished up the furniture
and did other good things to the
parlors. It was a brotherly act, to
say the least, and proves the Conger
brothers are most loyal and generous
to one another. Of course, Irvin
feels mighty good over it all, and well
he may.

Loup City is now one of the best
lighted little cities in Central Ne
braska. thanks to the Electric Light
Company, who have put in a 24-hour
service of as tine electric lights as can
be found in any city of its size, and
better and with more complete ser
vice than many of the cities double
its population. Thanks to E. G. Tay
lor, he was not content to give our
people simply night service, but made
the plant so extensive that those who j
wished daylight service, either for
light or power, could be accommo
dated. The Northwestern office is
among those who are more than
pleased with it. as it enables us to run
our macliinerv during the daylight
hours with electric -power, thus mak
ing our facilities for turning out work
much easier and enlarging the service
without adding employees, where
otherwise we should have been com
pelled so to do. AH h->nor to .such
enterprising men as E. G. Taylor and
many others, w ho are the power be- j
hind the throne that is rapidly biing- ■
ing Loup City to the forefront as one j
of the best and busiest little cities'

^hetn like a flood. Among those in
attendance from Loup City and near
