The Student body was favored
Monday morning in chapel by a short
talk by Rev. Henry. His subject was
"Fares Please"
He told of a man who had been
a conductor for twenty-five years,
and always did his job with pleas
ant smile. Behind the smile there
seemed to be a request "Fares
Please"
In connecting this with our school
life he said our teachers might al
ways be smiling at us, but behind the
smile they were demanding that we
pay our fares. Students fare is work
well done every day.

GET PHOTOGRAPH
OF MAN WHO SHOT
CHIEF OF POLICE
Positive Identification of Mexi-
can, Martinez. Made by
Three Persons. .>

Grand Island, Neb., Jan. 2l.-
Especial. "A new turn to the search
for the slayer of two police officers
at North Platte last week, was in
troduced by Sheriff James Benton
of Lexington here today when he
produced two photographs of Jose
MARTINEZ, the man wanted.
Sheriff Benton located bundle of
photographs at Alliance, taken of
various Mexicans who had at some
time or other been held in Jail there.
These pictures were rushed to
North Platte and first shown to
Nick Chiros, ex-soldier. and the
man who stopped one of the alleged
murderers with shot in the neck.
Chiros examined the pictures
carefully and picked out the one of
Jose Martinez as that of the fugi-
tive. The photographs were then
shown the wounded Mexican. He
went through them several times,
but finally selected the same pic
ture chosen by Chiros, and declared
that to be Of the man wanted, and
The landlady of the house where
the two Mexicans were known to
have spent one night, also identified
the photograph. j..
The pictures are front and
side view. Both are clear prints,
and show the man to be smooth
shaven, about 80 years old, lean and
muscular, with a decidedly vicious
cast of countenance.
Copies of the pictures were dis
patched at once by the sheriff to
all the men hunting the Mexican.
Local police authorities do not be-
lievc the pictures to be of the same
Jose Martinez who was held in the
Jail here in December.
The Mexican couple arrested
here Monday giving the names, Mrs.
Maria Martinez and Marciano Lo-
PEI, are still being held. The county
attorney at North Platte telephoned
the police here at 2 a. m. today to
hold the couple until further or
ders. He declared he had some new
evidence which might seriously III
volve them in the case.

Why One Should Make a Will.
Have YOU ever thought of max
ing will? By making one a per-
SON can safeguard his home and
family, also make them happy. If
a will is not made, the property you
leave will be taken to court and put
into the hands of an administrator,
who will take charge of it, pay your

Death is the one certain thing in
kfe,~ but we. never know when it
may come. If you postpone making
a will il is unfair to those depend
ing on you.. If one has ever talked
with a widow he will never neglect
or regret making will.
Benjamin Franklin said: "When
the we'll is dry we know the worth
of water"
"The will saves expenses and
court proceedings. If handled by
a trust company satisfactory distri-
button of estates and protection of
heirs against foolish investments
are made"
