1 W. II. Derris , of this city , received - .
ceived the sad int 1ligence of the
death of his ! 'ion ' , Jas. L. Derris ,
at Cedar Rapids , Iowa , who was
killed on the 2bH by a gas explo"
sion. He was forcman of the clec-
tric light plant at Cedar Rapids
and was 3 ( , yea.rs old.
Attorne ) ' J. E. Wilson , who
recently came here from Wahoo.
has moved his family here. l or
the present they are located on
the Squires farm a few miles east
of town they bought a few wcels
ago. He could not get a house
in the cit ) ' . His omce is in the
Myers & Gleim block.
The inclcmcncy of the weather -
ther last week was It dampencr
on all kihds of trafi c and trade ,
and the usually large Saturday
visitors to Broken Bow were no.
ticibly absent. I oads in the
country have a sumed their usual -
ual early-spring-likc condition
and thc farmer l11an feels more
inclined to pose b.r the fire-side
than hob-nob with cronies on
the streets of the county seat.
At the last session of the count ) '
board they diicovered ! that arc-
cent law does .way with the
special road cOl11missioner to cx-
amine and report on road petitions -
tions and that instead a mcmber
of the board shall perform that
duty. In complience with that
provision of the law tbe members
of the board will act .in the ca-
pacit } ' of commissioner in their
respect ! ve districts. For several
years past H. W. Buckner has
been acting as .commissioner.
The revival mcetings being
conducted in the Tabernacle bv
Evanf'elist ? Uncoln McConne 1
amI h1s musical director , I40ren
Jones. continues with unabated I
interest. 1\11' \ . McConnel1 has the
happy faculty of presentinggos" ,
pel truth in such a forcible ) 'et. .
interesting manner that the most :
iuditTerent are attracted to 1118' '
meetings. Mr. McConnell is enc I
of the closest reasoners and most
practical preacher it has been our
privilege'to hear. HiR sermons
are ncither sc l1sational nor sym-
pathetic. llis power is in his
logical rersoning and direct ap'
peals to the better judgement of
men.
J as. CotTman. of Gates , who
went to West Virginia about six
months ago with his famil ) ' is
back in Custer Coltn ty looking for'
a farm to rent. He bought a
forty acre farm in Virgina with
a view of remaining thcre per-
manently , but his two older children -
ren , Amanda and Edgar wcre
'not long in concluding that Cus-
ter county WdS far better for
them than their newly adoptcd
home and they came back.
Shortlj" fterwards 11r. CotTman
had an opportnnity to sell his
farm for what it cost him and be-
ing happy over the chance he
sold and coun t5 111 tI1self fortn nate
to get back without being- out
any more than his car far for
himself.and . fatl ily
Program and Bnslet Supper.
' 1'he Praric Center schQol , six
miles west of Broken Bow. will
gi ve a big program and basket
sUIper at this school house on the
last day of school , 'l'hursday
night , April 5th. 'l'he proceeds
will go to the benefit of the suffering -
fering Japaneese.
'l'his is a laudable enterprise
and everyone who possibl.r can
should patronize this enterprize.
It has only been a few years sincc
our people were on the charity of
the public and we should be glad
of the opportunity to help those
in distress.
Teachers , read this.
Arrangements have been made
to have the April examinations
held at Sargent and Callaway as
well as at Brolen Bow. , This is
planned expressly to accommodate -
date those teachers who can
either reach Sargent or Calla-
way mOle easily than Broken
Bow. 'rhe examination will be
exactly the same , and will be
conducted in the same manner.
As all answer papers arc sent to
the state superintendent the
g-radings must be the same.
Those of our teachers who notice
this article mar confer quite a
fa\'or on other tcachcrs by calling
their att ntion to it. It is not
the purpose to l.ave the succecd-
ing examinations at these points ,
but only tor thc month of April.
' 1'he state superintendent urge
all who can to take the examine
ations early in the year , for at
least two reasons : l irst , in or.
der that any who fail on one OI
more of the "live essenHals" may
have time to make up their de.
ficiencyand be ready for the falJ
schools ; and ser.ond. to rclieve
the State Examining Board of ; 1 ,
part of the mas , ) of wurk whic1J
will inevitably come unon them
during the fall months : 14ct all.
who can , be on hand for the April
examinations. 'l'he datc will be ;
April 20 and 21 , the third Fri.
day and Saturda.r in the month.
