,
The debate Thursday II .it
between Bedford high school
and Missouri Valley high
school, marked the third vic.
tory Of our home team this
year, and was the second vic
tory to which the friends of he
school could be witnesses. The
first contest held six weeks ago
with Denison high school, in
this place, resulted in an unani-
NOUS decision in our 'e,or.
The second held at 1s.bt,r, se-
suited likewise. That of last
night gave us the decision by a
p to l vote. Far from reflect
ing on our debaters' work, this
serves only to demonstrate the
mettle of last nights antagon-
lists.
The program was opened by
a song from the Girls Glee
CLUB. Merry June" The
chorus sang exceedingly well,
with precision and good balance
of parts. Supt. Bryan then ir
troduced the chairman, Supt.
Volkman, Of Tabor
The question, Resolved, That
American Cities Should Adopt
The Commission Form of Gov
eminent, was affirmed by
Slough McGavren, Gus lehman
and Tom Tormey, of Mo. VAL
ley, and opposed by Edwin
Beard, Paul Jacqua and William
Dusher, of Bedford. The
speeches on both sides were ex.
cellent. The last speaker or
the negative was especially
forceful. The Mo. Valley team
excelled in GOODNESS, ease and
dignity Of bearing, and earnest.
ness and effectiveness of deliv-
cry. Those who had heard
the previous debates were
impressed by the improve
ment manifest in the work
of all three debaters. The
school is to be congratu-
lated upon having such worthy
representatives.
The Judges were Supt. H. P.
Smith, of Audubon, Prin. E. w.
Graft, of Omaha, and Rev. Ed
gar Price, of Council Bluffs.
Their decision was announced
by Supt. Volkman, after a pre-
amble, somewhat narrowing to
the pent-up enthusiasm of the
crowd, and a handsome banner
was presented to the Mo. VAL
ley high school. This is given
by the Nonpareil Press of Coun.
Gil Bluffs to the winners of the
Championship of Southwestern
Iowa, for 1910. This honor we
now hold. The banner becomes
the permanent property of our
high school. Who our oppon-
ents will be in the semi-finals
for State Championship is not
vet known, but Missouri Valley
has reason to be proud of this,
her latest won victory. ~ =

SURVEY ABOUT COMPLETED
New Road to He Built From Decatur
 to Falls City

Decatur, November S.-tSpeciaL)-The survey of the proposed railroad from De- catur to Falls City, in Winston county. is almost completed and the prospects for the early construction work on the read are most fiattering at this time The survey has been completed to within five miles of this city where the civil en- gineers now have their camp at Curtis Wells, west of the city. The remainder of the survey will be completed at once and soon after this survey is completed it is said that the work of constructing the road will be commenced.
 Commencing out from Decatur about two miles it is likely that this road will follow an old survey made some years ago and graded by the Decatur Land company at that time for the pur- pose of getting the Southern railroad into Decatur This grade alone cost the Decatur Land company S49,0o0 If this grade is used it will be a great saving to the new road and will bring it through both New Decatur and Decatur. This proposed road is about 50 miles long. It is said that there is ample cap ital behind the venture to complete the construction and that 1t is largely Hol- land capital.
