California Expositions
Low round-trip Exposition fares to be
withdrawn November 30. Return limit
December 31.
The fall season is the best in which to make a trip to Cali
fornia—everything is at its best on the Coast and the trip is most
enjoyable.
Many special attractions ofjparticular interest to farmers have
tleen saved for this month—so" you will have missed nothing by
waiting until the closing months.
The very best season of the year to see proofs of successful
agriculture along the route to the Exposition is now—the harvest
is what counts.
All this you will see at the lowest fare in years—a Tate made
particularly for the Expositions. This is probably the best chance
of your lifetime to make the western trip you have been thinking
about—to make it at least cost and to see the most on the Coast
and on the way.
Complete your plans at once and in order to do this with a
view of saving money, send for booklet "California and the Expo
sitions" today. A postal will do—or if particular Information is
desired drop a letter to

IN THE SCHOOLS.
*
The Sophomores held a class meet
ing Wednesday.
Miss Waunetta Conger sang a solo
in chapel Wednesday.
Mrs. E. P. Daily and Mrs. Dr. Marcy
visited school Wednesday.
Oral Young and Kathryn Curtis
played a duet in chapel last Friday.
Bob Jenner seems to like motoring
judging from the way he spent last
Thursday and Friday afternoons.
A number of new dictionaries for
use in the high school, came last
week. We hope the Freshies will use
them.
Last week Miss Fay Gallaway and
Miss Waunetta Conger visited school.
Miss Waunetta gave several vocal
solos.
The high school pupils are very in
terested in the basement of the new
schoolhouse. Certain ones visit it
daily.
To Mr. Kelly:—Please when you are
filling up holes in corks, use some-1
thing more stationary than matches,
and oblige—?, A SENIOR.
Question: Why did Mr. Kelly call
roll three times Friday? Answer:
To help the juniors learn their num
bers and when to say them.
Last Wednesday noon the high
school pupils were surprised and dis
mayed at the sudden and rather unex
pected departure of Mr. Burwell. On
inquiry we found that we had no
cause for dismay, as Mr. Burwell had
gone to the teachers’ convention at
Omaha. Mrs. Burwell substituted and
we all agree that she is a most excel
lent substitute.
Miss Opal VerValin and Miss Al
berta Outhouse played two excellent,
duets on the piano last Tuesday dur-1
ing the chapel period. There is some
talent in each of the high school
classes, but when anything classical
and up-to-date is wanted, the seniors
are the ones who can give it to you.
If the seniors can not be persuaded
to assist you, the teachers are always
available as substitutes.

MR. CLARK OBJECTS.
Ravenna, Nebr., Nov. 1st, 1915.
Publisher, Northwestern, Loup City—
Dear Sir:—I noticed in your issue
of last week an item purporting to
give a summary of the business of the
Loup City Creamery since it started
in business in March of this year. I
regret very much that you should not
have sought correct information be
fore publishing such a statement.
There are some things in the state
ment that are quite wrong and mis
leading and some that might be
quoted from the professional pro
moter who is trying to work the dairy
men of the state and leaving his
monument in so many of our rural
districts in the shape of bankrupt and
defunct creamery plants and anyone
can in a days drive from Loup City
visit at least seven such monuments,
each one representing an investmnt
of five to eight thousand dollars of
the farmers’ money and all of them
idle and rotting down, and the chief
argument used in coaxing the farmers
into the deal has been just such mis
statements as you published in th ar
ticle referred to. I would like to
make a statment or two in regard to
the prices obtained for butter and I do
so with the utmost candor and wish
ing only to have the absolute truth
understood by all parties concerned
and I consider the man who milks the
cows to be the one most vitally inter
ested and shall be glad to meet any or
all oUr patrons personally and indi
vidually or collectively and discuss
the creamery business fully with them
and at any time to the best of my
knowledge.
In regard to prices I wish to say
there has not been a sale of butter at
thirty/cents per pound in a wholesale
way in the State of Nebraska since
this creamery started; further, that not
five per cent of the creamery butter
produced in the state has reached
•
within three or four cents of that
price; further, there is not a line of
business in the state that is conducted
on a closer margin or that requires
more careful attention and hard work
to make a success.
We have had a fine patronage here
this season and have tried to the limit
of our ability to please and satisfy
our patrons and hope we may merit
their continued patronage. *
We have made here from March
1st to October 1st this year, 274,934
pounds of butter..
Yours truly,
C. A. CLARK.
