THIRTIETH YEAR
Face a Deficit
The citizens entertainment com
mittee held a brief session in
the commercial club reams yes
terday afternoon to take account
of stock determining at least
one unpleasant fact namely that
the course this season has not
been a financial success Mr
Rugg of the Redpath Lyceum Bu
reau vvas in town and appeared
before the committee in the inter
est of his bureau and endeavored
to secure a contract with this
committee for next season In
view of the committees experi
ences during the past few years
and present ynr in particular
the committee could not see its
way clear to even seriously enter
tain a proposition This leaves
the matter open to any commit
tee or combination of citizens to
get rich quick as Dome mistak
en citizens imagine Such cours
es give those in charge much
anxiety and hard work and often
a deficit tto le made good by the
members of the committee And
most unfortunate of all the ef
forts of the committee are not
fully appreciated and often mis
construed as a money making en
terprise

t Teachers Association Coming
Beginning on the evening of
March 27 and lasting to and in
cluding the cveningof March 29
the Southwest Nebraska Teachers
Association will come to McCook
several hundred strong
This will doubtless be the larg
est and most influential conven
tion that has ever met in McCook
The Commercial club to persuade
the teachers to come here at that
tiiime offered the Temple theatre
for the meetings and guaranteed
the sale of 150 tickets at 75 cents
eaieh But to make this meeting
the success it should be to the
teachers and so to McCook at will
be necessary for the citizens to
help welcome the teachers indiv
idually and collectively The Com
mercial club shoidd experience
no difficulty whatever in getting
much moire than 150 enrollments
Our citizens should be glad to
enroll for two reasons Isit Be

Land agents report that some
land is being taken out of the
market as a result of the pro
posed irrigation project and that
in some other instances the val
ues upon land -for sale have
been raised While in still oth
er instances Avhere lands have
been listed under eontract efforts
liavio been made to recall such
lands from the market This is
an indirect inanner of expressing
confidence in the project any
how
offer oiir citizens
Then we must prepare for the
physical needs of the Association
by opening our homes for the en
tertainment of the teachers ait
reasonable rates The hotels have
made particularly low rates of 25
cents each where two occupy the
same room Our eating houses al
-ready supply excellent meals at
a minimum cost The greatest
need of the Association is to luwe
a Aery large number of rooms at
the disposal of the reception com
mittee so that all teachers may
be taken from the train ito their
lodging places as quickly as pos
sible Persons opening their
homes to the teacher will need

McCOOK BRICK CO TO
INCREASE FACILITIES
Orders In for New Machinery
and Other Improvements
Made
The McCook Brick Co has em
ployed Herman Winkler of Madi
son Nebraska and expects to
commence work in -the yard for
this season about April 1st tthe
weather conditions deciding just
the exact date Mr Winkler is
an experienced brick maker of
years practice and the company
feel that they avill be able to
much improve the quality of their
output Avliich in the past has had
a ready demand and market
The company has already or
dered a new brick machine of
lalteat pattern- and same will be
installed for use in this seasons
operations
Besides the company is now
negotiating for the purchase of a
neAV brick burning system this
system is operated with the air
pressure attachment producing
the very best possible results an
the even and regular burning of
brick
In addition the company is ar
ranging for an attachment to
their regular brick machine to
make hollow ibuilding blocks
This attachment produces holloAv
building -blocks for use on the
inside af a hrick Avail the blocks
are considerably larger than
bricks hence cheaper dn the lay
ing and as they are creased on
one side there lis no need of
lathing the plastering being done
right onto the blocks
This new nu dun ery neAV at
tachments and processes Avail call
for an expenditure of perhaps
jji3500 and Avill give McCook one
of the best if not the best
equipped brick making establish
