When I was a boy three or four hours spout on i\c. algebraic- problem found in a Sunday School paper gave me a better knowledge of equations than I could have gotten in several days from the text book. Tin- problem was as follows : A man has a tract of land fenced with a eight rail fence. There are as many acres in the Held as there are rails in the fence , al lowing two panels of fence to make one rod. How main acres in the Held ? Gallop. llev.

Nebraska Press Association Like all good members of the Xe lu-aska Press Association the editor ol this paper threw cares to the winds , dug up all the cash he could , left tlic paper in charge of the foreman and went to Omaha hu > t week to attend ihe I twenty-seventh annual meeting of the association , which took place at the Pax ton hotel Tuesday and Wednesday. The editor missed hearing the presi dent's message , arriving just in time to become interested in the discussion of Bro Julian's paper on the "Reciprocal Relation Between Press and Part- , " which was one of the best things of the association. Bro .Julian has a high ideal in connection with his subject , and believes it is not good policy for a newspaper to accept money from a candidat.- oflice. If politicians were the men they should be this would be all right , but they are prone to forget a favor. A luncheon was tendered the a-so- ciation at the rooms of the Commercial Club at six o'clock , followed by a theatre party at the Creigh ! on Orpheiim. Tuesday morning the business of the association began in earnest , and con tinued throughout the day. The papers read and the discussions which followed were models in every respect , and de veloped sufficient thought friction to insure the reading public of many good things in the country press during the present year. The business session Wednesday evening resulted in a victory for north Nebraska such as she has never before gained , W. N. Iluse. of Norfolk , being elected president , and E.V. . Julian corresponding secretary. Mrs. Claflin , of Ord , vas elected vice-president for this congressional district. From S o'clock until i ) a rece > tion was held in the parlors of the Paxton , followed by a banquet in the main dinn : _ room , whereabout 30j per.sons were served. The alf.tir was enlivened by music until tSur io-ists were an nounced , when began MIC : ' a How < f wit , viMlom and eloquence as we never tixpt-ci to hear ext-elle.i. T.ie response uf Rev. Mac-key of All S lints ( . 'hnrch mid editor of a weekly relig'.ous paper , ' was especial 13 * line and was tilled with many suggestions to the editorial fra ternity which we are sure will bear ijood ftuit. Will Owen Jones , of the State Journal , responded to ' 'Our Sins if Omission" in a manner which kept his hearers in constant convulsions of merriment. At the conclusion of the banquet goodlne's were said and with many regrets the editors parted. Every man , woman and child in Omaha seemed during our visit to bo iloing one of two things : Nursing vac cination sores or singing "corn" ' songs. Most of them were doing both. t'roiun of O'Neill , Julian of Cliadron , mid the writer upheld the-dimrity of the northwest. The first two distin Ljuished themselves , and this entire section of the state basks in the reflec tion of their glory. The editor who did not purchase a L'opy of "Limnings" with a per rait of the author while in Omaha , did n t do liis duty by himself , his profession nor the state of Nebraska , and should im mediately reform his ways. Omaha redeemed herself in the eyes jf many of the boys by her handsome treatment of them , and many who were unacquainted with her resources took this opportunity to learn. This writer for one is proud of the metropolis now ; 5iir eyes have been opened to many ; hings and we will never agai i say uirsh words oi the city. The World-Herald is to be compli- nented on the endeavors it made to intertain the editors while in Omaha. Hitchcock , Metcalfe and Maupm ex- rted themselves to the utmost to make ? vcrything pleasant for the boys , and ; hey succeeded. The World-Herald vill lose nothing ' > y its generosity , and j f the Mee doesn't notice a sharp falling j ) iY in its subscription list we will miss j nir guesr. i JMisa Eva Peyton's school has been j xdjourned three weeks on account of j jieasles. She went to Valentine Wednesday night to spend a few da\s : isitin < j friends. Sam Chestnut purchased five greyi i lounds last week. Two from Ulia j Po.vell for $ : ! 5 ; two from Fred Hoyt j ior $12 and one from Frank Arnot. Dd.in expects to make a clecin sweep jf the coyotes in his ncck-'o-tlie-woods. j Uiiis leaves Ulia with only one and a i lalf doss in his kennel. lie wants to another half dog somewhere as a j starter in the business. - Gordon ' Fournal.
