Much of our future success in this country depends upon our ability to keep our young men on the farms and away from the cities. Statistics show that the farms are gradually be coming depopulated and the cities are being overcrowded, with from two to five men waiting for every job. If our young men would stick to the farms, and improve and develop the uncultivated acres, it would be only a question of time when the wealth of this country would be doubled and trebled. Bright lights and white ways appeal to the young eye, but they do not feed empty atom ache. The farm is a good place to be and far better place to stay. Daily sella tor less.

It is expected that a large number of people will enjoy the event at the park on that day. "Knocking the knocker” is a pas time which apparently affords us much satisfaction, if not amusement. = Every town has its knocker, and just * as sure as he gets out his hammer he finds the oportunity maul pounding away at him. It is a case of the sur vival of the Bttest, and ofttimes the professionel knocker is the worse knocked of all. Some knock from the love of lit, others from habit, while a few, it seems, knock from the pure cussedness of it. In any case they knock, and, likewise, they are prompt ly knocked in return. Knocking, forsoth, is a great game, and every body plays it these dayB. We, in fact, are doing a little of it ourself. - * The annual school meeting held on _ Monday June 12, developed into quite an interesting meeting before the day was over. 242 votes were cast for new members of the school board. Four candidates were in the field, D. D. Grow, G. W. Colliprlest, J. W. Long and Win. Larsen. D. D. Grow received 135 votes and G. W. Colli priest 125, these two gentlemen be ing elected as the new members of the board. Mr. Larsen received 100 votes, Mr. Long 117. The school board has been deadlocked for some time upon the appointment of city! superintendent of schools and it is said that the matter will stand as formerly when the two new members go onto the board, but as. to the truth of this statement we are unable to | verify. The annual park opening at Jen ner's park was observed as advertised last Thursday. A large crowd was in attendance and everybody ap peared to have a good time. A fine merry-go-ronnd afforded plenty of fun for the kids and also the grown-ups. The ball game between the Ashton and Arcadia teams was one of the best games played in Loup City for a long time. Ashton started out well in the first inning, making three scores but were unable to make another score and lost the game by a score of 4 to 3, the Arcadia boys making three runs in the seventh inning. These teams were very evenly matched, and the game was witnessed by a large crowd, j The day at the park closed with fire works and a big dance. All the sur rounding town* were well represented and the day goes down in history as another big success. The fourth of i July will be celebrated at the park. It is a pleasant place to spend a holi- ] day and plenty of entertainment willI be provided tor all on that day. 1 iimimiiiimiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii^ CaJuluJt YTuwv | d&tvTvct ItaV | ARE YOU A BRICK-LAYER? = IF YOU ARE YOU KNOW THAT ONE BRICK ON TOP OF = ANOTHER FINALLY BUILDS A HOUSE TO PROTECT AND = SHELTER. = IF YOU ARE NOT A BRICKLAYER YOU KNOW THAT ONE = DOLLAR ON TOP OF ANOTHER BUILDS YOU A FORTUNE E THAT WILL SOME DAY PROTECT AND SHELTER YOU FROM = ADVERSITY.
