National Swine Growers' Meeting In Chicago Today The National Swine Growers’ as- sociation, the body which staged the highly successful National Swine show in Omaha, October 2 to 7, last, will hold its annual meeting in Chicago today. The unanimous sentiment of the officers and members of the na- tional assocation is for the holding of the 1917 show in Omaha; in Fact, realizing that the horse and mule barns on the South Side rank as the best hog pavilion in the country and that this city is the logical center of the greatest porcine stock belt in the land, the majority favor the Nebraska metropolis as the permanent show locale. E. Z. Russell, associate editor of the Twentieth Century Farmer and superintendent of exhibits at the 1916 show, probably the busiest man on the grounds and one who had as much to do with the success of the swine classic as any other individual; Everett Buckingham, chairman of the executive committee, and W. H. Shell- berg, superintendent of concessions, are representing Omaha at the an- nual meeting of the national body. Swine breeders and local business men are confident they will be suc- cessful in bringing the 1917 classic to Omaha. The financial report covering re- ceipts and disbursement of funds at the 1916 show was sent out to the subscribers to the show last week. The receipts wewg $12,857.15 and the disbursements $12,781, leaving a bal- ance of $75.48 in the bank. The members of the executive committee are: E. Buckingham, chairman; A. C. Davenport, E. P. Peck, G. J. Ingwersen, A. C. Smith, T. F. Sturgess and A. F. Stryker.

A Hint to the Aged. If people past 60 years of age could he persuaded to go to bed as soon as they take cold and remain in bed for one or two days, they would recover much more quickly, especially if they take - Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. There would also be less danger of the cold being followed by any of the more: serious diseases,—Adv. i Educat@l Notes Chadron Normal Notes.

By morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, it be- comes beautifully dark and glossy.

PRESIDENT FOR NEW PLAN The annual class rap” at Belle- | vue college is to be abolished. For years there has been the class “scrap” between the sophomores and freshmen before Thanksgiving. The Doane game on the Saturday before Thanksgiving has always ended the football season at Bellevue. On one | of the nights in the week following, just before Thanksgiving, was staged the fight. With the introduction of Thanksgiving football games the last two or three years the battle has been postponed until after the holiday, but it has always been held nevertheless. Bellevue college students have al- ways maintained that their class fight | was the most picturesque of any in the state. The custom has been for the sophomores to put up their flag on a pole on the campus just after dinner in the evening. Just on what evening they intended to put it up was always kept a secret. As soon as the freshmen found out about it they launched a drive against the sophomores assembled about the pole. All night long the battle raged, or until the one side or the other gave up. One attack after another was di- rected against the defenders; rein- forcements were often brought up, and strategy was employed to sepa- rate the sophomores from the pole. The defenders camped about the pole all night about huge bonfires. Custom decreed that whichever side had possession of the flag the next| morning at sunrise—or at 7 o'clock— was the winner. Now it is proposed to abolish the | Arthur | house into a corn crib where he kept | form and was greeted with pleas for old custom and olympics are substi- tuted I'he proposed plan is to have an in- door and outdoor mect between the freshmen and the sophomores. Some of the different events proposed are a tug of war, a class rush, swimming races, fifty-vard dashes, wrestling and boxing contests and various jumping contests. The logical time for the meet would be next Friday afternoon and evening What lends strength to the new move ment is that both President Kerr and Athletic Director Benjamin have put themselves on record in favor of the | innovation ‘His Wife Attacked, He Shoots Man and Is Beaten by Crowd Valentine, Neb., Dec. 2.~ During Brown's absence from his farm last night, Charles Ritchic of | Kilgore, a young man, it is alleged, gained access to Browu's home and forcibly dragged Mrs. Brown from the | her prisoner for an hour, attacking her, she said. | Brown upon his return home was informed by his wife of what oc-| curred. He trailed Ritchie to Kilgore and publicly accused him of the crime, Ritchie admitted his guilt and started to run, whereupon Brown shot him twice.

IRISH REBELLION Written by CHARLES EDWARD RUSSELL in HEARST’S MAGAZINE Which caused the English Government to Bar the De- cember Edition of HEARST’S "MAGAZINE in Canada This is the story of the Irish Rebellion that history will show. It is the story that fair-minded men and women want to know—that you want to know now. The Irish Rebellion was not a mad stab in the dark. It was not made in Germany. It was planned for a year before the war. It had one definite purpose. “If the Irish republic can hold Dublin five days,”’ reasoned the Irish leaders, ‘‘the war’s end will see Ireland free.” The whole purpose of the Rebellion was accomplished —Dublin was held five days. Will Ireland therefore be free? Were the Irish leaders right or wrong, and why? Charles Edward Russell tells you, and he backs his statements up with documents facts and documents that have never before been published—facts and documents that will amaze and startle you.
