years old were playing with a toy

from a bottle into the hot lamp when
the fluid exploded and set fire to

mind rolled him into a rug and
smothered the flame that enveloped
him with her skirts His left arm

IN THE CLEAR
There were almost 1500 passengers
on the special train which went from
McCook In the neighborhood of 500
tickets and passes were taken up
out of Oxford Leaving 500 for all
other trains and making allowance
for a large attendance upon the part
of the people of Cambridge and the
total attnedance upon the picnic
reached somewhere between 3000 an
3500 people And while we are on
this part of the subject a finer buncl
of orderly citizens out for a good
sane time you never set your eyes
upon
And those Cambrdige people They
are just like their handsome little
city appears Clean well mannered
hospitable social The finest little
burg in this section ext to Mc
Cook
McKanley park is a great boon
to Cambridge as it would be to any
city in Nebraska A little assist
ance to Avhat nature has done would
make it an ideal spot
The railroad boys made every effort
to entertain their guests outside of
the service And they succeeded
The only tragedy of the day was
the condition of Johnny Morrissey
whose face resembled a prize pug
dogs the result of an eye tooths per
nicious activity which prohibited him
from smiling out loud or indulging
in any of his vociferous stunts But
he had a doodle of a time if he
couldnt adequately tell it

ing will be left undone to show up
the resources of the state to the
best advantage

vantages and vast resources of th o
state Besides this big exhibit there
will be a large number of individual
county displays Indications are that
every section of Nebraska will be
represented at the Land Show Al
ready a -number of western counties

what Nebraska has to offer and the
object is to make the best possible
showing General Manager W O
Paisley who has just returned from
a tour of several western states says
that everywhere he went he found

land displays than have ever gone
out of the west
