Lincoln Boosters
Visited Julesburg
Last Friday A. M.

The Lincoln Boosters. who were out
in special train last week on an
excursion trip to these parts for the
purpose of getting better acquainted
with western Nebraska and eastern
Colorado, arrived in Julesburg Friday
morning on schedule time but their
band did not march up town and play
as was advertised. Some laid this to
the wetness of the weather but others
declared it was due to the dryness OF
their reception One party in the ex-
cursion was heard to say ours was the
only town in all their trip that did
not in some way officially receive
them and yet it was requested by the
boosters themselves that We should all
stay in our usual places of business in
order that they might find us at home
when they called to see US, 80 we
doubt if there was much to the "peev-
ed" theory.

Sunday Night Class Play Monday Glass

School Exercises Wednesday Evening.

Ihls IL commencement week for the
Sedgwick County High School and the
day Of glory for the sweet girl grad.
uate and especially true is this this
year for the class Of 1920 as it 10
composed entirely Of girls-tsn in
number as follows: Helen Mccoy.
Wilma Bower, Helen Lewton. Betty
Parker, Mary Zorn. Eleanor Gillette
Williams, Gladys Sweezey, Clara Carl
son and Mabel Greene.
No one who attended the Bacca-
laureate exercises at the FedeNted
church will soon forget the evening.
The ushering and church decoration
was attended to by the Junior Class
under the supervision of their sponsor,
Miss McComb and much credit is due
them for the way this was done.
The music was unusually good. The
trio by Mrs. Lue Petersen, Mrs. E. N.
Kelsey and Miss Bush was beautifully
rendered. The patriotic sextet by the
choir was greatly enjoyed.
The address delivered by Rev. In
man was impressive and helpful and
will be long remembered by the grad.
uating class.
Truths uttered at such time make
a deep impression and are usually
remembered for years.
The graduating class made their
first appearance in their caps and
gowns at this time. The girls are to
be complimented on their good taste
and judgment in wearing official
gowns instead of worrying mothers
and themselves over fussy graduating
dresses.
On Monday evening of this vssf.
at the Hipp Theatre, the Senior ClSk
of the High School presented the very
pleasant comedy. "In the Adirondac!s"
or "Mr. Wigger's Troubles" The play
was under the direction Of Prof.
Rowland and we believe he was also
it's author. It was full of sparkle and
snap from the very start and showed
careful study and reflected great
credit, not only on the splendid cast,
but their director.

Citizns Of Tekamah. Neb, bought

Wonder whether the citizens Of Jules
burg have started anything along this
line yet!
The local Post at recent meeting
decided to instruct the Post Adjutant
to wire our Representative in Con-
gress that this Post was heartily In
favor Of immediate action on the COM
pensation bill as it now stands. 1t
is the result of careful study Of the
needs and wishes Of the ex-service
men Of every state. The Legion has
asked that Congress in meeting the
nations obligations to the ex-service
man, be rs liberal as is consistent
with the welfare of the country.
Members of the Legion are urged to
familiarize themselves with these facts
so that they may assist in dispeTling
the misunderstanding now surround
ing the Legion's program.
Have you recorded your discharge
papers yet? This is Of considerable
importance especially in view Of the
probable passage Of the fourfold com
pensation legislation plan by Con-
gress. II may also save you great
deal Of trouble and worry in case the
originals are lost
The Executive Committee has de-
cided to hold a meeting in Sedgwick
in the near future for the purpose Of
enlisting recruits for the Legion. Ar
rangements have not yet been com
pleted but will undoubtedly be an
nounced at the next meeting.
Plans are under way for a big le-
gion dance to be held in Julesburg at
an early date. Bills will be circulat-
I'd in plenty Of time to allow you TO
"d.te 'er up." It's sure bound to be
a head-liner, and whatever you DO
don't miss it. =,
And don't forget, we meet on the
twenty fourth.
