evidently been under great pressure.
The wood was spread apart between the
rings Of growth, indicating that it had been
swollen in water and the rings were thicker
than they are in ordinary Nebraska trees.

Washington crossed the Delaware
River on a dark night when the
river was full of ice and attacked
the Hessians stashiored at Trenton
and licked them, too. Of course he
had his army with him.
Washington was the first Presi-
dent of the United States and he
could of been king if he had said
the word, but when the people
asked George to be king, he says
mo, thanks, I would rather be
President if it's all the same to
YOU"
George and his soldiers put in a
offul hard winter in Valley Forge
one winter. 1t was very cold and
the ground was covered with snow
and George and his soldiers didn't
have no shoes, so they walked
around in their bare feet, but did
they repine? No, they didn't, nor
complain. George used to go about
amongst his soldiers and cheer
them up by telling them that they
was agoin' to have a early spring
and when summer came they would
not need no shoes. That's the kind
of man George was, allus looking
on the bright side of things.
If it hadn't of been for him, this
country would have went to the
dogs in them dark days and the
people of Bingville have George to

Dewberry, our heroic town constable,
present at Jed's request. After school
opened Seth made speech to the schol-
ars in which he said that he was the
strong limb of the law and was there to
enforce discir'~e if necessary. Seth
said the first olar who got obstrep-

peace and clap him into the town lock-

down the school room polishin' up his

There was a good cal of indignation
at Seth on the part of the, parents of the
scholars, and some of EN- say they won't
vote for him again as town constable
for taking a hand in something that
amt none of his business. When Seth
heared this he didn't show up at the
school Thursday, but the scholars was

TIE BINGVILLE BUGLE
Bright, Breezy, Bellicoss, Busting

It will only be two or three days
1--WE forget which) until Washing
tons Birthday will be in our midst
once more. It would be offul
blunder if we was to let this op-
|portunity excape us to write a edi-
torial concerning George Washing
ton, who was the father of his
country. G. Washington adopted
this country and become father to
same when it was a orfng and
didn't have no father but needed
one very bad.
Of course G. Washington has
passed away, being as he has been
dead fer 10 these many years, but
this will probably be news to the
majority of Bugle readers, being as
they who don't know George has
passed on and probably never
heared of him.
LATER-Jest as we got the
above finished Cy Hoskins dropped
into this office to inquire how fur
back he was on subscripshion.
Thinking that Cy might be agoing
to pay us a dollar or two on ar
trears, we looked him up in the
book, but when he found out he
was paid up to Jan. 1, 1905, he
thanked us kindly and said that he
would not pay anything for a few
months, being as he allus liked to
keep back on subscripshions about
six years or SO.
We menshioned incidentally that
we was writing a editorial about
George Washington and Cy says
'Let me see, where is George aliv-
lin now?" Gle amt livin'," we
says in deep disgust; 'fhe's dead"
"Why hadn't heared of it, says
Icy. "When did he die, and was he
took off suddint?"
Then we told Cy who George
Washington was and he was good
cal surprised and listened in open
lmouthed establishment. When we
said that G. Washington never told
a lie, Cy shook his head and said
we couldn't make him believe that
ibeing as it was too ridickulus
Knowing Cy as well as we do, we
didn't expect him to believe it-a
man that will take as many iber-
ties with the truth as Cy does on
every occashion nacherly eouldn''
see how it would be possible fol
ianybuddy else to be truthful.
