McCook Scored Second
While it would have afforded The
Tribune greater joy to have been able
to report the winning of a first prize by
McCook in the State Deolamatory Con
test in North Platte last Friday even
ing nevertheless we have much pleasure
in recording the creditable fact that our
representative Miss Gertrude Morrissey
won the second prize in the dramatic
class This is no small distinction
when it is considered that the work of
selection had in all three classes been
reduced to a fine point and that talent
of a high order was represented in each
of the three classes So wo congratu
late Miss Morrissey and felicitate the
McCook high school

Death of Henry H Pickens
The Tribune has but brief news of the
death of one of Red Willow countys
early settlers Henry H PickenB His
serious condition has been known for
some time and his death was not unex
pected
Death claimed him Monday of last
week April 25th at Escalon v ali
fornia and his remains were laid in
Oakdalo cemetery near that place on
April 27tb
This paper has for a quarter of a cen
tury accounted the departed one of its
choicest friends Something like two
years since be and his estimable and da
voted wife moved to California in the
hope of improving their health and
lengthening the span of life in that more
genial clime but in his case it was not to
be so and the Beads already sown soon
blossomed in death
We have not at hand at this writing
data of an accurate sort but in a gener
al way the late H H Pickens has been
indentified with the early settlement
and development of Red Willow county
having lived more than quarter century
on a farm a tow miles southeast of Mc
Cook He was one of the early com-
missioners of the county He was a
man of staunch ideals and a friend of
finest fiber He is survived by a wife
whose devotion to her husband has been
an inspiration to all who have had the
pleasure of their friendship
The Tribune freely adds its deep and
genuine sympathy for the bereaved but
courageous wife

Sunday and Day programmes have

It is the most economical paint to use
because it spreads further for the gallon
and costs no more to put it on than an
inferior paint which will not last so
