We understand that a number of
young people from this country are
soon to go to Grand Island, Nebraska,
to attend the we'll known Grand Island
Business College. The school has
been leader in business education

1S VIC SO W pkeob Hoioucy ! Wi, OuS
of the prominent residents Of this
city, is lying at the point of death,
and there are slight hopes for his re-
covery. Mr.. Pool has been in poor
health for some time past, and at var
ious times his condition has been con-
sidered critical. His many friends
will regret to learn of his present con-
dition, and will entertain hopes of his
recovery, which seems doubtful at
this time.
A dance was held at loves hall
Thanksgiving night, and an unusual
ly large crowd was present to dance
the light fantastic to the strains of the
splendid music rendered by the Jules
burg orchestra. A good time was had
by all present. A dance will also be
held next Saturday night, December
9Th at loves hall and good crowd
will no doubt be present on this oc-
casion. The Julesburg orchestra will
furnish music for the event.
Through an error on our part, we
omitted the name of Anthony Oil in
the list of Soldier Boys names at
Camp Funston signed to the letter
addressed to the Citizens of Sedgwick
county rendering the boys thanks for
the Thanksgiving Fund, which we pub
lished in our last issue. We are sor-
ry that the error occurred and wish to
assure Anthony that it was purely an
oversight, as his name appeared on
the original letter and should have
been published along with the rest of
the names on the list
A dance was held at F. E. Farley's
L nj southeast of Julcsburg las.
Saturday night, and large crowd
was in attendance. The dance was
held in the NOV of the large new barn
which Mr.. Farley has just about COM
pleted. This structure is 36x60 feet
and is a mark of progress for that
section. The Julesburg orchestra
furnished the music for the dance and
quite number from this city were al
so in attendance. An enjoyable even
ing was spent by those present.
