A change has been made in the
location of the - Interstate High
way through this county between
ouibertson and Palisade taking
in to the divide about five miles
north of town from the French
man valley This route has some
bad canyons to cross and Ave be
lieve that a much better route
could be had by coming through
Trenton and Stratton and then
taking the divide road to Waune
ta The commissioners say that if
this route is selected it would be
put in good condition as soon as
possible It would pass through
and benefit the three principal
towns of the county and very lit
tle objection would be made to
use of county funds for its im
provement Right now is the pro
per time to agitate tliis little
change in the route as it must
be made sooner or later and
while the agitation is in progress
let the extra work on the road be
pushed ahead Good roads are
one of the assets of any commun
ity and our commissioners are
willing and anxious that the big
road through Hitchcock county
will equal any road in the state

THE OLD SETTLERS PICNIC
The day was pleasant and while
there were not so many present
as on some former occasions it
was one of the most enjoyable of
the picnics The meeting and
greetings of old friends and ac
quaintances were cordial and
heartfelt and soon a bounteous
dinner was spread and enjoyed
as open air dinners are enjoyed
After dinner the proceedings
were opened by prayer by Rev
MeBride followed by singing by
a quartette composed of Mr and
Mrs Calvin Mrs Iladley and Mr
McCool Mr MeBride made a
speech more music a speech by
Mr Perry music then Mr Cor
deal gave an interesting epitome
of the history of Red Willow
county with extracts of a dairy
kept by Royal Buck on the ex
pedition of the founders of the
county in 1871 And just here
it may be allowable to mention a
subject of interest in connection
with naming the town and count
ofl which Mr Buck writes in his
daily In discussing the matter
the shape of the counties farth
er east being square and one lead
ing town as Clay Center York
Center etc it was considered
more expedient to have this new
county longer than wide in or-
Yirile Senator Borah of Idaho ider to allow for more than one
large town
The honored guest was Mr G
B Nettleton who came the day
before from Colorado Springs to
be present The venerable gentle
man was invited to take part in
singing one of the songs which
though new to him was sung
with the old time expression and
clearness of tone which charact
erized his singing in early years
lie was touched when the
capacities that
place in hearts
lie says he is
84 years old and growing young
er every day
Some old friends were missed
from their places but manj new
one came Those from a distance
were G B Nettleton of Colora
do Springs Mrs Jacob Longneck
er and three children from Flem
ing Colorado Mrs J E Wilson
of White Cloud Kansas Miss
Mabel Gowing of Lincoln Mr
Williams Avife and daughter of
Wauneta Bob Williams was
cordially greeted by old friends
of early years and many inci
dents were brought to mind som
sad some pleasant Among the
latter was his strong rich melod
ious voice in smgmg oass
Mr Cordeals presence was
pleasing and we are proud of our
young senator who takes such
interest in the history of the
county which interest gives
promise of culminating in some
thing tangible from his research
es
Mrs Taylors toothsome chick
en pic was in toothsome evidence
as usual while Mr Waddells anc
Will Randels water melons were
furnished to all
These annual picnics are con
ducive to making hearts warm to
wards each other and it is hoped
will be kept up with increased in
terest
The failure of the editor of the
Tribune to attend will need a
good excuse to be condoned
The fire department Saturday
evening about 530 ans wered a
call to the McCook Greenhouse
No buildings were burned but
seven tons of hay were burned
and damaged A small boy and
a match furnished the cause

the best models often of contrast
ing material or heavy lace and
they are expected to remain in
favor for some time to come
As- shown on the model in the
illustration many of the newest
collars are inclined to be small
in the back with large revels in
the front On a smart blue suit
a collar of this sort was recent
y seen developed in a rather
wide val lace jrathered at the
5 00 neck and tacked to within a quar
tor of an inch of the edge
The model m the illustration
Avas developed in a surah of satin
with the collar of velvet and the
revers in front of dull gold satin
embroidered in Oriental effect
It is a smart design for the tall
slim woman as the applied sec
tions on the bottom of the coat
and skirt tend to cut the height
of the figure It would make a
most practical suit for general
war in a serge or rough cheviot
with the collar of velvet or satin
to match and with fancy bone
buttons on the trimming sections
