taut 7 I 1 f 1 isanj L rsn H H y i t TWENTY THIRD YEAR Closing Day Was Very Gratifying The closing diy of the McCook Jun ior Normal School last Friday was most satisfactory to all associated with the school In addition to the usual inci dents of the last day there was the presence of both state and deputy su perintendent and of Assemblyman RW V Jones of Otoe county Nominee for Assembly Philip Glieni of Ked willow county andothers to lend eclat to the auspicious occasion There wore two general assemblies or meetings during the day at both of which State Supt Fowler spoke At the morning session he expressed his evident pleasure and satisfaction at the work accomplished- styling it above ex pectations of the educational department and the were high Ho spoke at some length in referring to the splendid oppor tunities thus afforded the country teach ers by the state and felt that a marked improvement must accrue to the state in the quality of the work done by the teachers of the future Philip Glietn of Danbury the Repub Jicau nominee for member of the next legislature made a hit in a briof but to-the-point speech Ho pledged himself io an earnest and enorgotic support of proper measures for the good of educa tional matters in Nebrasku and of the junior normal idea The afternoon session opened at two oclock with a delightful concert by the famous Slay ton Jubilee Singers those spoil binders of the musical world An especially interesting address followed by Hon R WW Jones of Hoe county Mr Jones had to admit that ho was at iirst an opponent of the junior normal plan However he unlike some others studied up the matter and later became a hearty supporter and champion after making a tour of the state and attend ing each of the junior normals in com pany with Deputy State Supt McBrien Mr Jones has been a resident of Nebras ka for 35 years counting as among his personal friends and neighbors Hon J Sterling Morton whose self given pic ture ho observed ornamented the wall of the assembly room of the McCook high school In an tarly day he was a teacher himself Had always been and should ever be a genuine and hearty champion of educations cause in Ne braska This was his first trip into the western part of ihestate and it was good for his soul to admit that ho would go home minus a large stock of conceit and blessed with more information and knowlege of this section than most Eastern Nebraskans can boast of or even dreamed of Deputy State Supt McBrien and doubtless our next state supt followed with a short address in which he dwelt upon the value of the school just closed to the state in the better qualification of its teachers and of the inspiration they would carry to their pupils in the ses sions of public schools soon to open over Nebraska v Supt Fowler again spoke with some feeling and in a valedictory strain it be ing the last time he will visit this part of the state in the capacity of chief of the states educational department which he has served so efficiently for the past four years Principal Thomas Profs Miller Mar tin and Misses Caldwell and OSullivan each followed in brief words of farewell all of which were received with a hearti ness of applause which can easily be construed as expressing the appreciation of their labors felt by the members of the McCook Junior Normal The following resolutions were then adopted and the normal adjourned we hope to meet with us next year in a more permanent form Whereas the second and last session of the McCook Junior State Normal School provided for by the Nebraska State Legislature of 1903 has reached its close and Whereas we the teachers in attendance have been benefitted beyond measure by our study in the school and by contact with the in structors and with one another and Whereastho numbor benefitted by the schools has been so much greater than the most sangu ine expectations of those who instituted the plan had expected it would be and Whereas so many teachers are of necessity employed in the schools from September to June with only the summer months for the much needed professional training bo it Resolved That wo adopt the following resolu tions First That we carry the inspiration and help received in the McCook Junior State Normal into the schools of the various counties here represented and that so far as we are able we advocate the permanent establishment of the Nebraska Junior Normal Schools Second That we commend roost heartily State Supt Win K Fowler and Deputy Supt J Jj McBrien for their influence in establishing the Junior State Normal Schools thereby bringing instruction along professional dines within the possible reach of every teacher in the state that we express our appreciation of the successful and untiring efforts of Supt G H Thomas and of the able corps of instructors who have assisted him that wo thank the citi zens of McCook most heartily for their hospi tality and for their interest in behalf of the school also that we extend sincere thanks to the lecturers entertainers and all who have contributed to the success of the McCook Junior Normal Third That we as teachers in behalf of the schools of the state of Nebraska desire and urce that the legislators of the state of Ne braska do at the next session of the legislature in January 1905 provide for the permanent establishment of the Nebraska Junior State Normal Schools Fioka B Quick Eedwillow county Feed E Eggert Chase county C Estella Goodwin Dundy county Fkask S eates Hayes county Mabel CUkse Hitchcock county Hazel Jowjjet Furnas county

Haul Just the Same Sheriff Crabtree was called down to Republican City Tuesday night on No 14 by tho information that they had one of the jail breakers in custody there He went but found the authorities were in error However tho fellow in custody proved to be the party who had stolen various and sundry articles from Police Judge Berrys office Monday night and he wjis brought to McCook on No 13 Wednesday Considerable propertywas found on the young fellows person Ho also admitted where he had secured the goods Ho gives the name of William N Ido and claims to have recently come from the east whero ho formerly served as janitor in a largo building The fel low worked for the ladies of the Metho dist church during log rolling last week and Mr Berry permitted him to sleep in his office to help him along He is evi dently a pretty clover crook A Public Drinking Fountain For something that has long been needed it is surprising that no one has sooner urged the necessity of a drinking fountain for the public to be established by tho city authorities somewhere in a most accessible locality on Main avenue Now that the matter is being urged upon the city council we hope tho people of the city and its businessmen particular ly will support the request most urgent ly A public drinking place for horses and dogs has forv years been a public establishment One or more for human beings is none the less urgent The water company will doubtless bo philan thropically inclined enough to give the water free for such an enterprise en joying as they already do a very liberal income from the city Push the drinking fountain Republican County Central Committee There will be a meeting of the Re publican County Central Committee held in McCook pn next Monday August 29th at one oclock for the

large audience And then followed the mask carnival and The Tribune does not propose to attempt a pen picture of it Thf re was a lot of fun which for the most part was enjoyed by participants and those looking on There was an immense gathering on the streets and the hot time continued for several hours One of the features of the after supper entertainment was the high dive made by Robert Gunn from the top of the 100 foot high stand pipe It was a thrilling sight made all the more inspiring by Bobbies pink tights and Johnny Morris seys super eminent management At a meeting of the camps Saturday night it was decided to make these an nual log rollings a permanent affair and to strengthen the association by every available means for the future The annual meeting of the association will be held in April at which time it will be decided where to hold the next log rolling The drill work of the Havelock tpam was a feature of the event And their band was a most welcome addition to the amusement and entertainment pro gram Heres to the Havelock boys The ladies of the Methodist church cleared about 8160 in their eating stand Everything considered it was a success But we can do better another year The shirn waist dance in the opera house in the evening was a conspicuous success also There is some difference of opinion as to whether Bobbie Gunn and Johnnie Morrissey shall be canonized or canned for their part in the high dive Driving team for sale at W T Cole mans Sfrtbtmel New M E Church Cornerstone Laying Thursday afternoon markod another epoch in tho history of tho Methodist church
