Kiid Cloud eitiens and newspapers have been hollowing tlieli heads oil for the lasV ten ear- about the old Couit house. How unsightly it was and how much danger that Hie would b irn all tliu county tccoids over in the Count Clerks oil Ice. lint when we build a new court house they llud themselves ho much in love with the old Temple of Justice that they can't givp it up, and proceed to buy it as an annex to (libit- high school building. Wo k ap pose it will be u lot uioio sightlyiu its new location one-half block away and a lot lets apt to burn the county re cords in the county clerks olllce. Of course it may burn a few hundred children to death but that is d lifer ent. Webster County News, Cowles. It is not that tho cltizotis of Red Cloud love tho looks of tho old court houso building that they will use It for school purposes but because moro room must he provided for tho ever increas ing attendance at the high school. This building will not have a lire in it and so theie will bo no danger either to the county recoids or tho children, ami tr it can ue made to last six or eight years it will havo fulfilled Its mission. 500 Suits Real Estate Transfers Furnished by M.
