Enquirer, who with his wife visited here last fall at the home of Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Mason, shows vividly the state of mind and visions of happiness at that editorial home: “Cannelton, Ind., Feb. 27, 1913_W. F. Mason. Loup City’ Neb: Mary Mason Miller was born this morning at 9:40 o’clock and is doing as well as any of the Cedar citizens of this town, and her motherissimply super fine at this date.” ’.Che bunch Char ley branded friends while here have sent him a message of congratulations that will take several years’ sub scriptions to his family paper to pay for. Following is Daddy Millet’s initial spasm: “VOL. I, NO. i. “The ‘first issue’ of Millers' House hold Companion reached our table last Wednesday morning at 9:40 o’clock and ‘she’ is sticking there faithfully with a hearty welcome. From present indications, and with our heartiest hopes, she will continue to stick to our table. It’s a girl, and she's a daisy, but that won't be her first name. We are not losing our head by naming her after any white house ce.ebrities in spite of the fact that some of our enthusiastic friends have suggested that we call her Wood row. In the first place that kid can’t row and if she could row we don’t believe she Woodrow, so we are just going to call her plain Mary Mason Miller.”—Cannelton (Ind.) Enquirer. A fine boy came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Arnett in Webster township last Saturday morning, March 1st, about the break of dawn. May his future be nothing less than president of Uncle Sam’s domains. A little daughter arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Jewezski in this city early last Friday morning, Feb. 28, 1913, to round out the month with joy for the happy couple.

Moving Mania The moving mania struck Loup City Monday with fearful force, some thing like a dozen householders changing eating and sleeping places. These, together with others who had moved a day or two previous, make a list that was simply great. Herman Jung moved from his residence back to the bakery. O. S. Mason moved from the Daily cottage into the Jung house: Daily from the old Banker Williams residence, owned py Pete Dzingle, into his own home: Dzingle from his place south of town into his house vacated by Daily. Joe Vaughn moved from the Baptist parsonage into the Huckleebery cottage: Vic Swanson into the parsonage vacated by Mr. Vaughn. John Oltmann mov ing from his farm into his town home occupied by J. W. Dougal, Mr. Dougal moving into the Albert Johnson cot tage. Pete Haremza moved into the Chris Johansen property, vacated by Arthur Smith, who goes to Iowa. Baby Gets Kernel of Corn in Nose Last Thursday, while they were shelling corn, the little 2-year-old baby of Mr. and Mrs. Will Watts, living up the valley, while playing about the sheller, got a kernel of corn in her little nose, but the parents hurried her to the office of the Drs. Bowman and Bowmaq, who removed the obstruction without serious in convenience to the baby who looked upon the performance as something for her amusement, rather than with any great concern or fear, and no harm resulted. Mrs. Emma McCray Breaks Hip in Fall Last Thursday morning', as Mrs. Emma McCray, teacher in the Loup City high schools, was on her way to the school, and when near the A. E. Chase residence, sne slipped on the cement walk and fell heavily break ing one hip. from the effect of which she is at her home suffering greatly and will probably be laid up for a long time. At last accounts the lady was getting along as well as the nature of her serious' injury will allow.
