girl, but clever for all that.
one bunch Of men in Norfolk Mon.
day were planning how to make
horses go faster than ever and an
other planned to keep the animals at

one volume of Three Weeks has
arrived in Norfolk, II Is said. And by
the way, now do you know what T
W meant? Some women profess
ed they didn't, at the time.
What fun would the Thaw trial be,
anyway, II Evelyns testimony couldn't
be made public? But then It didn't
make any difference to Jerome-he
would have been inside, anyway.
Anybody could lead a grand march
with Burt Mapes right behind to fall
back on,
People who are we'll enough to com
plain because it hasn't been in the
paper that they're sick, are on the
road TO recovery,
II there's any one thing more than
another that will spur man to get
ting down town early in the morning,
1t is knowledge that a woman in the
|neighborhood Is keeping tabs on this
feature of his schedule. And they do
that, too. ......... .......,
There's a good deal in heredity, az
ter all. Little Wilhelmina Koenig-
stein, daughter OF the county attorney,
is already a graceful walter. And
there aren't many walters on earth
that can beat either her mother or
her father at it,
The News is going to install a new
feature headed "On the Well And
Strong List" 1t would read some
thing like this: Fred Koerber is
among the few who have not yet fal-
len victims to the grip.-Gus Kuhl has
Experienced no attack of hay fever
this winter" And that would pretty
nearly be the size of the list
Creighton Liberal: Creighton sent
two delegations to Norfolk Monday OF
which it is justly proud-it's band and
it's fire department.
| School authorities are introducing
many different fads in the educational
line in order to improve the minds OF
the scholars but when reality is spread
before you there is nothing more ben
eficial than discipline. Those two or
CARNATIONS prove this. The fire de
partment has preserved an active or
ganiZation here for nearly fifteen
years. Nothing keeps this organiza
ton intact but discipline. They have
strict laws and they are lived up to.
| The band is even more remarkable
Some young fellows in that organi
cation can hardly ever seem serious
but as soon as they get in the practice
room everything is business.

| Osmond Republican,: On Christmas
day in Norfolk, another tragedy almost
took place, when Mrs. H. F. Barnhart
shot her husband, H. F. Barnhart, in
the fleshy part of the leg, the bullet
lodging in the knee bone. The Barn
harts were formerly residents of Os
mand and here they have many friends
who regret this unfortunate affair.
Osmond Republican: There seems
to be a growing sentiment abroad
looking to the placing of "the lid on
in nearly all towns in this part of the
state. Norfolk has notified her saloon
men that the lid must be shut down
tight in the future or there will be
something doing. Here in Osmond
there is growing sentiment that will
ultimately not only put the lid on but
will go a step further and put the
lights out of the open saloon. The
Republican will be glad to open its
columns for the discussion OF this
question, so long as the discussion Is
carried on in a gentlemanly spirit.
