One more Christmas with all its
pleasant associations has come and
| gone, and will henceforth live only in
memory The weather was clear and
crisp, the roads were smooth, the
health of the people good, and most
other conditions favorable to a de-
lightful day. The day in Audubon
was very quiet, the only interruption
being dog fight which unfortunately
led to little scrap between the own.

| ners and other festivities common to
the occasion. On Sunday evening
the Presbyterian church devoted the
time for service to exercises suitable
to the proper commemoration of the
day and those things for which it
stands. On Monday evening the M.
+. church was filled by a large COM
pany to see the Christmas tree and
hear the program Of exercises given
by the Sunday school. 1t is worthy
of mention in this connection that the
superintendent Mr.. A. H. Roberts has
served in that position for twenty
seven years and now commences the
work for the ensuing year. On Sun
day morning he presented each pupil
and teacher souviner card contain
ing his picture, which they very much
appreciated. Twenty-seven years as
superintendent of Sabbath school
involves large amount of labor,
patience and sacrifice in good cause,
much more than church or commun-
ity rightly understands or fully APP
preciates. 1t is hoped that Mr.. Rob
erts may live to fill the same position
for many years to come.

Prof. F. p. Hooker and family did
not get away on Thursday of last
week as expected. but did leave on
Saturday evening for their new home
at FL Reno, Oklahoma. On Monday
evening, the choir of the NJ. f. church,
of which Mrs. Hooker was a member,
gave them serenade at their home
and left a present to remind her of the
pleasant associations together in
Audubon. On Thursday evening the
p. f. 0. Society, to which she be-
longed, gave party in her honor at
the home of Mrs. A. l.. Brooks, the
time being very pleasantly spent in
the enjoyment of refreshments, and
tOasts responded to by the different
members and closing by the presenta-
ton of souvenir spoon from the
chapter to Mrs. Hooker. Mr.. Hooker

LARGE TRANSFERS OF LAND.
Judge w. r. Green Turns Over
Large Tracts Of Land to Meet
Obligations "of Honor"

Three tracts of land in Nebraska.
and one in Illinois were sold by the
trustee in the w. r. Green bankrupt
cy case, for an aggregate considera-
tirn OF S3l, 26O, the proceeds of which
will go to creditors of the Green Cattle
Company. Mrs. Lois G. Stuart OF
Audubon secured $40 acres in Knox
county, Nebr., and 40 acres in Dixon
county, Nebr., for 1925, 900
Judge Green's action in turning
over his personal estate for the salts
faction of debts in whose making he
had no part, has earned for him the
warm commentator of all the credit
Ors and of Judge Smith Mcpherson,
who delared the act to be one of the
most honorable he had ever Known.
When the Green Cattle Company fail
ed, it held no claims against him, but
as he was partner, though he had
taken no part in the management, he
at once placed his private belongings
at the disposal of creditors. Special
to the Register & Leader.
Such misfortune in the life of a
business or professional man is hard
to meet and bear with equanimity; and
no wonder that many men go down
under the burden. Though the loss
is a large one, Judge Green is not
left helpless by any means. He is yet
in the prime of life with a good pro-
feSsion, and fine position which he
can probably hold as long as he de-
sires. The article above is fine
