SPEAK MOST ALPHABETICALLY
BONDS CARRY AT TUESDAYS
ELECTION 8 TO 1.
The Citizens Back Up Their Action
of Last July-AlI Is Well
Watch Falls City Grow.

The Missouri Pacific bonds Were
voted upon Tuesday. There we're ST.
votes cast in the three wards-v514
of them were for and 80 against. -
Here is the vote by wards:
First-204 for; 20 against.
Second-1S4 for. 16 against.
Third-126 for; % against.
No serious doubt was ever enter
tanned by the Commercial Club
nor others interested, that the bonds
would not carry. Some thought that
there would be more opposition to
them. The fact that they carried so
overwhelmingly is proof positive
that Falls City has for once pulled
together for the welfare eff itself.

a Correction.

Through an objectionable mistake
last week, The Tribune printed the
name of Riley in the account of the
death OF Thomas Ryan, ST.. the
writer knew well both the Riley fam
lily and the Ryan family during their
former residence in Dawson. and the
circumstances of Mr.. Ryan's death,
but our proof reader, knowing the pop
ularity of both names in connection
with Dawson could hardly be expect
ed to question the difference. In the
misplacing of names it might be
well to say that Mrs. Ryan, widow of
the late Thomas J. Ryan. was Miss
Bridget Riley before her marriage.
We crave pardon from the relatives
Of the deceased for the error, and al
so of the living, to whom we trust it
will cause no annoyance

The Mission Sunday School.

The Mission Sunday School will
have their treat on Christmas night.
1t will consist of a tree, with pres

The Mission Sunday school enjoys
this evening to the fullest extent,
for in some cases the presents re-
ceived by the children, is the only
Christmas treat they have.
This event is looked forward to
with much interest from year to year,
and Christmas night at the Mission
is a very happy place.
Those who have the work III charge
wish to publicly thank those from
the different churches who have as
sisted in the pleasure for that even

This makes the fifteenth Christ
mas treat held in the present Mis-
sion building, and during all that
time this Sunday school has never
been closed. Arrangements are be

BASKET BALL.
Falls City Defeated at Seneca, kas.,
Score % to 2t.

Our high school boys went to Sen
eca, Kas., last Friday for a basket
bali game with the Mems Athletic
association of that place, and we're
defeated by a score of % to p. Con
sidering the fact that the boys We're
pitted against men, most of whom
were six footers, we think they made
a more than c%reditable score. Our
team was weakened in two respects,
a substitute was placed for George
Gilligan, who has not recovered from
injuries received in the Thanksgiving
game; and David Reayis, IN of our
star players, had his eye injured in
Il practice game on Thursday, and
was at a disadvantage all through
the game. But our boys are all right
and the score, though it marks de-
feat, is a credit to them and shows
what they can do even at long odds.
The boys start out next Monday to
play the games of holiday week. They
have booked games with Teeumseh,
Syracuse and Lincoln. We feel they
will cbme home with new laurels
for themselves and honors for their
school. They will make things liY-
ely for the teams that tackle them.

First Presbyterian Church

In spite of the snow that fell SO
persistently last Sunday morning we
had a fine showing both at the Sab
bath school and also the morning
preaching services. And those who
brayed the storm seemed to enjoy
both the singing and the other parts
of the morning worship, as thanks
for the spiritual help and uplift re-
ceiyed were by no means few. We
are planning great things for next
Sabbath. In the morning the pastor
will preach and the choir will give
special music, and in the evening a
fine musical service entitled, THE
Shepherds Story" will be rendered
by the choir. The connective read
ings wiz he EVEN by Snpt s "
Woods of city schools, and the
solos and duets. etc, will be rem
dered by various members of the
choir. We are trying our best to
make the services as helpful and com
Portable as it is possible for us to
do under our serious limitations, and

O OUR v

1t is with no common pride that WI call attention to the
cover of this Christmas Edition of The Tribune. Other pic
lures there are with greater claims to artistic merit, but few
that will so Enthusiastically tell the Christmas story and its
deeper and better meanings.
All who look, and think as they look, will naturally find
the mind going back beyond myth and legend to the simple,
but sublimeiye grand, old Bible story of the visit Of the Magi
to the Christ Child of Bethlehem.
1t is said they were KINGS; it is nowhere said in Scrip
ture that they were only three in number Are they not typi
cal of the time surely coming, the signs of which coming are
increasingly manifest, that the great and wise of the earth
will come from the four corners thereof to worship Him? Then,
too, remember the form which the worship took. They open
ed their treasures, and presented unto Him gfts-goId, frank
incense, and myrrh. The richest and best, both of the ma
teriaI and the aesthetic, they gave to the object of their wor-
ship.
The Tribune will feel more than amply repaid for the
trouble and expense in giving this piece of art to its patrons,
if the lesson OF a larger heart of more generous giVing,and of
the reality of the things that are highest and best shall have
been learned by its readers. And, in the spirit of this picture
we wish for all our patrons and friends the enjoyment of all
that is best and purest in these days of festivity, and pledge
you our gratitude for such splendid patronage and support as
we have had in the past, by a more unrenitting attempt to
serve you one and all with the very best we are capable of
giving.
With seasonable compliments to all!
