EIGHTEENTH YEAR. McCOOK , RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA. FRIDAY EVENING. JUNE 9. 1899. NUMBER 4
Board of Education.
There was a regular meeting of the
board of education at the office of Secre
tary Kelley , Monday evening , and con
siderable routine business was disposed
of :
The annual levy was laid , providing
20 mills for general school purposes ai.d
5 mills for school bonds. The average
levy for school purposes over the state is
25 mills , or five mills more than in Mc-
Cook. It is suggestive of the care and
economy being exercised by the board
and teachers of our city in the matter of
finances.
A number of clain.s were allowed and
warrants ordered issued.
Supt. Caviness filed a number of re
ports , covering the various departments
of the school work. They reveal a very
satisfactory state of affairs. Due atten
tion has been given the important mat
ters of supplies and text books. The
. supplies have been carefully husbanded
and the return of the school books in
sisted upon and accomplished with but
slight loss.
' 5The assessor's report shows the total
number of children of school age in the
city of McCook to be 823 , this embraces
all over 5 years and under 21 years of
age. The total enrollment during the
year was 829 , the largest in the history
of the school , and really an extraordinary
one. It should be remembered , too ,
that the total "outside" enrollment for
the year did not exceed 31 pupils. The
average attendance for the nine mouths
of school was 579.
The matter of the compl int from
South McCook against the reemployment
ment of the old teacher , was not taken
up , but will be given a hearing at the
meeting of the board to be held in two
iveeks from the last meeting.
Circus Coming.
Once more the hearts of the children
: are made glad by the coming of a circus.
Culhns Bros.1 New Enormous shows will
exhibit in McCook , Tuesday , June aoth.
Two perforineuces daily , afternoon and

act a feature ; a performance prepared

Their Anniversary.
" the South Side Endeavorers will hold
'their anniversary exercises , this year ,
in W. S. Fitch's grove , on June iSth ,
owing to the smallness of the schoolhouse -
house ; they will have an all-day session
and those who come from a distance will
'bring ' their lunch. There will be good
speaking , and a good programme is be
ing prepared , besides an especially good
devotional service is expected. There
will be ample room for hitching teams ,
plenty of seating room , and all are cor
dially invited. Especially the Epworth-

following items are taken :
The briefness of this t > ession and tht
hi h character of the instruction inakt
it imperative that no time be lost ; thai

voke the certificate or refuse to grant a
certificate to any teacher who refuses to
attend the county institute. "
CHARACTER OK INSTRUCTION.
The work will be professional in char
acter. Bear in mind the institute is in
no sense a preparation for the teacher's
examination ; you are expected to be
fully prepared for that before the insti
tute begins. The institute is for those
already prepared to teach , and held in
order to make better teachers and fill
them with inspiration for their work.

be granted. All who hold certificates
with grades below So per cent must
raise such grades. Certificates grading
85 per cent for second grade and 90 per
cent for first grade will be subject to en
dorsement , provided the holder complies
with other conditions.
CONCLUSION.
We extend a cordial invitation to all
district boards , patrons of schools and
friends of education to visit us at any
session. Our public schools are demand
ing better teachers , therefore the stand-
ir < l uiu t be raised. I would suggest to
school boards that they come to our in
stitute to select teachers. Let me urge
upon the teachers the necessity of being
present the first hour. With your sup
port we can make this a most successful
nstitnte. LILLIAN M. WELBORN ,

Rev. Father Ctillen , who will be re
membered by many of our readers , held
Memorial services in his church at York ,
Sunday a week ago , and the York Dem
ocrat has the following to say of the ser
vice :
Memorial services for the honored
lead of the war of the rebellion were
icld in the Catholic church at half past
teu o'clock , Sunday last. The church
was all too small to hold the great num-
jer who desired to attend , many regret-
"ully turning away.
The decorations , consisting of llags ,
junting and flowers , were artistically
arranged , while a magnificent imitation
catafalque occupied a position at the
foot of the altar.
The members of the G. A. R. , W. R. C.
and Daughters of Veterans inarched from
their hall in a body and occupied seats
in the center of the church , especially
reserved for them.
The memorial sermon was delivered
by Rev. Father Cullen , and was a
scholarly and masterly effort , the vast
audience frequently breaking into ap
plause as some particularly interesting
point was touched upon.
Spot the Fakirs.
These good old McKinley times have
filled the land with fakes and fakers.
fuE TRIBUNE would advise the readers
to buy goods of reliable dealers. If you

The meeting of the ministerial club ,
Monday , lacked but one of a full repre
sentation of the membership , and was
withal profitable. Rev. Turner presented
a paper on "The Origin of the Lord's
Day"of which the following is a brief
summary.
THE ORIGIN OF THE LORD'S DAY.
We find the beginning of the observ
ance of the Lord's day in the New Test
ament. It was a joyous , spontaneous
assembling of themselves together to
break bread at a social meal , thus keep
ing the memorial of the crucified and
risen Lord.
The Jewish Christians kept the Sabbath
according to the commands of Mosaic
law , and along side of the observance of
the Sabbath grew up the observance of
the Lord's day.
There is no apostolic command to ob-
serv'- the first day of the week. The
epiiue of Barnabas , 119 A. D. , designates
Sunday as a day of "Jubilee" in remem
brance of Christ's resurrection.
Ail the writers from the apostles to
the year 300 A. D. declare the Lord's
day to be a sacred day , a day of privil
ege , of joy , rather than of obligation.
They never confound it with the Jewish
Sabbath never call it the Sabbath , but
the Lord's day.
The Lord's day grew up like most in
stitutions in the Christian church , gradu
ally becoming more and more a day of
rest The Lord's day was to the church
at the beginning of the fourth century
a day of joyous commemoration of the
Lord : it was under the law of liberty
ami so was distinguished from the Sab
bath.
In 321 Constantine , the Roman em
peror , issued the following edict :
"On the venerable day of the sun , let
the magistrates and people residing in
the cities , rest. And let all workshops
be closed. In the country , however ,
persons engaged in the work of cultiva
tion , may freely and lawfully continue
their pursuits.
"Given this seventh day of March. "
While there has been great diversity
of opinions , scholars of today are quite
unanimous in the judgment , that this
edict is simply the work of a keen poli
tician seeking to introduce order into
the confusion of rest days.
This is shown by the fact that he does
not use the word Lord's day but the
"venerable day of the sun" which was
especially agreeable to his pagan sub
jects.
This is the beginning of civil legisla
tion for the observance of Sunday. We
notice a steady growth in the strictness
of requirements both in the civil and
ecclesiastical legislation of the following
period. In the second council of Macon ,
585 A. D. , the transfer of legal concep
tion of the Sabbath to the Lord's day
seems to be complete.
MINISTERS' MEETING.
At a meeting of the ministers of the
city held on June 5th at 9 a. m. , the fol
lowing organi/ation was perfected : Rev.
T. L. Ketman , chairman ; Rev. T. P.
Beall , secretary.
The next meeting will be held in the
Congregational church , next Monday
morning at 9 o'clock. Rev. J. A. Bad-
con will read a paper.
Union temperance meetings will be
held each month. First meeting on
Sunday evening , June 25111 , in the Con-
pregalional church. Rev. Stoy of the
Episcopal church will deliver the ad
dress.
PYTHIAN MEMORIAL Sl'NDXY.
The regular annual Pythian Memoiial
services will be held in the Methodist
church , next Sunday afternoon at 2:30
o'clock. Rev. Turner will preach the
Memorial sermon. The Pythian band
will head the procession to the cemetery.
All knights are requested to meet at the
: asUe at 2:00 : prompt , bringing such
[ lowers as they can procure for the deco
ration of the graves of their departed
brethren. All visiting knights are re-
juested to participate in this service.

school indulged in a picnic on the Drift-
vood , Thursday.
