Redeem Your Past Failures.


You may say that you have failed too
often, that there is no use in trying,
that it is impossible for you to sue
coed and that you have fallen too Of
ten even to attempt to get on your feet
again. Nonsense! There is no failure
for a man whose spirit is unconquered.
No matter how late the hour or how
many and repeated his failures sue
cess is still possible. The evolution
Of Scrooge, the miser, in the closing
years of his life, from hard, narrow,
heartless money grubber, whose soul
was imprisoned In his shining heap
Of boarded gold, to generous, genial
lover Of his kind, is no mere myth
of Dickens brain. Time and again, in
the history Of our daily lives, chron-
icled in our newspapers, recorded in
biographies or exhibited before our
eyes, we see men and women redeem
ing past failures, rising up out Of the
stupor Of encouragement and boldly
turning face forward once more.-O.

Surely young men and WON en-
can not now say they have no
chance, as the Grand Island Bust
ness & Normal College of Grand
Island, Neb., has just announced
that $50 young men and $50 young
women of good character from the
farms and villages will be admit
ted at the college and allowed to
graduate without the payment Of
one cent. They will then be plac-
ed in positions in banks and bust
ness houses and allowed to pay
the college monthly out of their
wages. This school is leader
among Business Colleges and any
one interested should write for the

N. J. Uck, OF Omaha, a partner
of Frank Krampert of Woodlake, is
in town this week on business. We
acknowledge a pleasant visit.
Rev. J. w. Morgan preached in
the Presbyterian church for the
past two Sundays. His sermons
were we'll written and exceedingly
well delivered. The PresbyteriaDs
can do no better than to ask him to
come to Valentine.
The U. S. Weather bureau re-
port for the week ending July -,
shows extremes of temperature to
have been 90 on the 18th, and
46o on the 9th, giving a range of
40. The average daily mean
was 60 and the normal 75o,
showing a daily loss in tempera-
ture of %. The precipitation for
the week was only .O3 of an inch
and the normal 81 of an inch,
showing loss of .5S. The pre-
cipitation since the LIST of July is
2.O5 inches and the total for the
year to date is 2O.S2 inches. The
winds have been slightly below
the average, and the greatest We
locity was % miles from NE on
the Sth. All crops have been bene-
fitted during the past week.
The weekly crop bulletin for the
state of Nebraska shows the past
week has been cold with about the
normal rainfall. The mean daily
temperature has averaged 80 be-
low the normal. Light showers
occurred nearly every day of the
week, but the total rainfall was
not large. The amount exceeded
1 inch in several counties but in
the greater portion of the state was
slightly less than an inch. The
winter wheat harvest, although re-
tarded some by showers, has on
the whole progressed nicely. A
little thrashing has been done in
counties, the yield |
being good and the quality excel
lent. Spring wheat has improved
somewhat in condition. Early
oats are ripening and the harvest
has begun in southeastern counties.
The heads are we'll filled, but the |
stand thin and the straw short. |
Late oats promises a better crop.
Considerable hay was damaged by
rain. The wild or prairie hay
crops will be heavy, especially in
northern and eastern counties. |
Corn has grown fairly we'll and is
healthy and in good condition but
needs higher temperature. Guilt |
vation has been retarded by rain
md a large part of the crop has
1ot been laid by. The second |
crop of alfalfa is about ready to cut. |
