Gas Discovered
in Nebraska
—
Workmen engaged in drilling:
for water on the farm of Commo
dore O. Grady, three miles north
east of Dawson, Neb., has struck
gas in ninty feet of sand.
The roar of escaping gas was
heard for a half a mile above the
sound of the drilling machinery.
Some water was struck' The gas
causes it to bubble and roar and
steam while throwing it out. Tnis
confirms the idea that there is oil
and gas, as well as other mineral
deposits in southeastern Nebraska.
The location of this hole is on a
ridge somewhat higher than the
surrounding ground, between the
Muddy and Nemaha rivers. It is
a district where there has been
more or less trouble getting water,
although many springs crop out
on equally high ground within a
mile of this gas well. The state i
geologist is expected here to look
over this proposition, as it is the
first of its kind in the state of
Nebraska. i

School Notes.
By Supt. L H.Currier
February is the month of birth
days. The schools should spend
much time in the study of the flag
and patriotic themes. The schools I
that hare a flag’ should display it
on the birthdays of all promient
men. For those that have no
flag it would be an opportune time
to raise money to get them.
The following birthdays should
be celebrated in some way in
every school: Lincoln's Feb. 12:
Washington’s Feb. 22: Longfel
low *s Feb. 27. These are times at
which facts concerning these great
men can be impressed upon the
minds of the young.
The sixty-third Congress begins
on March 4. It will consist of 961
senators and 433 representatives.
The superintendent has received
some excellent monthly reports;
for January. These reports show j
a large increase in the average
daily attendance over the same
month last year. The county fair
managers are offering a prize of
$3 to the school having the larg
est average daily attendance. Pu- j
pils, help win this prize for your
school day from now until your
school closes.
The mayor of Boston is asking
every school boy and school girl
to commit the Athenian Oath to
memory. Such an oath could well
be subscribed to every boy and
girl in our county. The oath is
given below: "We will never
bring disgrace to this country by
any act of cowardice or dishonesty.
We will fight for the ideals and
sacred things of the country. We
will revere and obey our country's
laws, and to our best to incite a
like respect and revernce in others.
We will strive unceasingly to
quicken the public's sense of duty.
We will transmit this country to
those who come after us, greater,
better, and more beautiful than it
was transmitted to us.’’
