McCooks kick off Holdrege securing the ball and making a 3rig run towards their goal Then came the lino work of our boys in which they succeeded in pushing the McCook boys within McCooks live yard line and by some mishap lost the juall Our boys held McCook pretty close to goml and finally got tho ball which re sulted in a line smash by Paul Nelson who went through the line and made a touch down Next camo tho Holdrege kick off which ended in a touch down for but instead of McCooks being nsnlucky at kicking goal it scored mak ing our boys one behind Thus the first half ended with a score of 5 to 6 in favor of McCook The second half was a play for life Xt had been necessary for McCook to put in substitutes Both sides were hitting tho lines hard when McCook by one of Sier trick plays scored again Our boys were playing hard in the last half and were gaining on their goal when the whistle blew and all attempts wore n vain the game being stopped with a core of 11 to 5 It vras a hard game and it was only by the good interference and team work that the McCook boys won Holdrege Progress iCooncil Considers Some Matters The city fathers were in regular ses sion Monday evening with a full

where many of the pupils seem to be entirely unmindful and fear less of the effects of tobacco It is rather incongruous and remarkable to see lads even below the high school grades going to and returning from school smoking the nastiest and foulest pipes imaginable Perhaps the teaching might be made more practical at any rate an effort might be made to prohibit smoking to and from school in

the expense of Superinteudent Calvert One of the rules posted for the benefit of the chair car porters was that smoking on duty or in the cars was prohibited One night Mr Calvert walked through a chair car in a train at Oxford It had been va cated for the time being by the passen gers and but one person was in the car That was the porter a new colored man from the Missouri lines He was enjoy ing a smoke Mr Calvert tapped him on the shoulder gently and asked him if he did not know that it was against the rules of the company for porters to smoke in their cars The belligerency of the col ored man was in evidence at once He said I guess it is none of your business so long as the officials of the road do not catch me at it It is said that Mr Cal vert smiled and went on Lincoln Jour nal
