Yards at Loup City, Ashton, Rockville, Schaupps and Arcadia All roads that were graded up in good shape last fall are in good shape now compared with those that were not worked much. Now would be a good time for the road bosses to go nver these roads and see where the work is most needed. Yep, election time is trotting right ilong. It will soon be on the gallop. A wise man oftimes changes his nind. The fool has no mind to change. Smile, and the world giggles with you. Scowl, and you are just grouch. Of course your Willie has high ideas, but has he a single practical idea? Even the buzzard, the lowliest of birds, is loyal to its home. Are you? To get rich quick you have only to annex all of the money in sight and see that it stays annexed. Daily sells for less.
