The state debate . at Lincoln has been postponed to a later date. . . -1' 'J' r ' that We are 'sorry to report Margaret Haley is on the sick .list. Die deutche Klasse will give a short _ play in German in the open 'program. I : : The corn sent to the agriculture class by Mr. Brosius to be , .tested was very good. The 8th grade is preparing a program to entertain the 7th grade some time in May. Everett Northrup , formerly a .student here but now living I in Chadron , visited the 7th grade classes Monday. s i . . The freshmen boys prepared . breakfast for the rest of the class at the park ' Wednesday morning a 5 o'clock. Nine were brave enough to venture out. . The gardens have v all been plotted and a number are all plant- ed. We sincerely hope the frost will not hurt them after so much hard labor has been spent on them. The only open program given f _ this year ! in which every room - takes part will be given Saturday : , : . evening , May 14 , at 8 o'clock , in Church's ball. Seats reserved the : 13th and 14th : at Chapman's ; 25c. The proceeds of this entertain- ment will be added to the piano ' . . fund. There is § 50 in this fund . . . . . I . . . ' now.

It will be a treat to hear the m usic at the open program. The following is listed to date : Or- chestra ! . , glee club , quartette , trio piano , solo , duet , violin solo , and I others. The field day was interesting I and pleasant , marred only by a 40 mile breeze that made it somewhat disagreeable to be out doors. The . I thirty prizes were donated , thanks , to the generosity of the Valentine 1 business men and were secured by ! winners in the thirty events"bf the 1 afternoon. It is believed that an ; i i annual field day is a benefit in i I I developing in young America physical ability and the will to use it , besides diverting , the mind from ways not beneficial and hel p- ful. A sound mind in a sound body is a good maxim. The glory Greece and Rome in ancient days had for its basis well developed , I body. Education , to be of any value , should be three-fold. Not intellectual alone , but the physical and moral development as well , ; must not be neglected.

Mrs. Spall attends to the store and office during his absence. W. E. Miller recently purchased I the Spall-Smith ranch and will en- , gage "in the stock business. He I comes from eastern Nebraska. Gray , his son , will live on the ranch. In connection with his ranch duties he is prepared to do all kinds of telephone work. , C. S. Latta is disking in oats. The hay flats may become a small grain producing region yet. Var- ous persons are taking up the proposition of raising their grain and thus avoiding extra expense and freighting. C. S. is one of our most up-to-date dairymen , a neighbor who stands for higher and better things in life. Such citizens are a credit to any com- munity. , George Bucy recently purchased an imported Percheron stallion. He is giving considerable atten- tion to raising good horses. While the purchasing - of this kind of stock often v works * : a hard ship on those who do so , it is the only method of raising the stand- are of our domestic animals. We . believe that men who make the : necessary outlay to improve the , herds in this locality is a benefact- or of mankind. J. H. Baker is hauling stone for the erection of a concrete house. High prices for all kinds of stock is making it possible for our stock- men to provide more comfortable and desirable homes. We rejoice to see the crude buildings of early days replaced by modern ones , and see no reason for complaint at high prices of agricultural' pro- ducts. Our day has come. Those who toil in storm and heat are en- titled to better things than were possible in the 90's when the in- come from farm or ranch would barely meet running expenses. Let the good times go on. , ' Garden seeds at the Red Front. Alfalfa , Millet , Timothy and Clover Seeds at Fischer's Hardware. The CRYSTAL WHITE REFRIG ERATOR is what you need this j summer.

The snow melted as it fell , excepting where it lodged in sheltered places. Frank Swearingen was in town Tuesday to consult a doctor. He was kicked by a horse a week ago Monday and pretty badly hurt. I He was also suffering from a cold and hoarsness. The V. H. S. alumni will hold its annual business meeting and eloct officers for the coming year , Saturday May 14. at S p. m. , at Geo. H. Hornby's residence. On account of those who are obliged to work later than this hour the first part of the evening will be used to discuss matters of interest to alumni members , so that those arriving later can have a voice in the business. Members are urged to be present. Br ORDER OF COMMITTEE. - f A Special Offer. The big daily papers find it nec- : essary and profitable to. keep in- casasing their subscription list , and one of the fastest growers is the Lincoln State Journal. This splendid state daily has just open- ed up another big subscription campaign , offering the paper to Jan. 1 , 1911 , for only $2 ; with Sunday § 2.50. This special rate will bring the business. The Journal has a way of its 'own- cutting out a lot of expensive methods of getting subs cribers and making the low rate to its readers direct. The people of the state as never before are looking to the Journal for the real doings in the state. It is building up its I business through reliability and enterprise , especially in covering the state news. Another good thing about The Journal is its policy of stopping every paper when the time is up. If you don't pay for it don't get it , and when you ; do pay for it you ; are only paying for your own paper , not helping to pay for the one sent some deadbeat. You will like the cleancut methods of The Journal people.
