The sermon of Rev. H. L. Powerslast Sunday evening was specially in-

tended for young men, the text beingfrom Zechariah 2--4, "Run speak to thisyoung man." The subjects dwelt uponwere the greatness of the power of youngmen, physically, mentally and in in-

fluence; the high honor shown to them,angels are earnestly concerned for

them, Christ died to save them tothe uttermost, ministers of the gospellabor in their behalf and parents followthem with their unending love; the liv-

ing message is to tell them of their oncehappy home, of the counsel and exampleof their parents, that life is very prec-

ious but uncertain, and that there is abetter world beyond; the dignity ofChristian character, which brings joy tothe home cercle, gives dignity to societyand honor to the church. A large con-

gregation was present.

The thoughtful husbandman isbusily engaged now, on occasions, in hiswork-sho- p, looking over plows, harrows,seeders, cultivators and harness, so that,when spring-tim- e comes for sure andall, he will be abundantly ready for thework which will then fall to his lot allin a heap. "A stitch in time," applies tothe farmer's work as well as it does tothat of the good house-wif- e, as likewisethe fact that "delays are dangerous" orat least, sometimes, expensive. Nebras-ka, so it seems to the Journal observertoday, can reasonably look forward tothe coming season as one of abundantcrops. Get the live-stoc- k to eat andhelp the building up of manufacturesfor a better local market, for all yourfarm products.

As to Those Journals.Mr. Editor: We notice in the last

issue, in regard to the Monroe packageof Journals said to have been lost, thatwe would hear something drop if it oc-

curred again, and for fear it would dropon innocent parties we suggest that theP. M. at that point be more careful totake them out, and not let them go onto other offices. Inspector.

Some people have a notion that theway to advance the business interests ofa town is to create an exaggerated ideaof its importance; magnifying a thousandfold (less or more) its actualities inshort, lie about it, in the newspapers,play the world as "suckers." Thero issuch a thing as "putting the best footforward," which, of course, is all right.Reasonable people expect this, but torepresent things away beyond what theyare, is a wrong theory to act upon, andproduces disgust. Take your town justas it is and make the most of it, byhonest, hard licks in its favor. Build upall the interests you have here; encour-age others to come that will find an un-

occupied field of work and will them-selves prosper; talk, work for the townand the whole town. When prosperityis general, all have a share in it.

The towns of Nebraska are all prettymuch in tho same condition they needmanufacturing industries to make bettorhome markets. The local trade of thelarger towns, owing to the increase ofrailroads, is being cut off by smallertowns springing up, and nothing butmanufacturing and jobbing interestswhich will bring money from the outside,will answer as a substitute. The way todo anything is to, at least, begin consid-

ering what ought to be done, determineon what can be done, then go to work atthe doing of it. All talk will not ac-

complish much. "Go ahead, boys," isnever so strong a phrase as "Come along,boys." A little factory right on theground is much better than a big castlein the air.

We are pleased to hear that most ofour country schools are taking quite aninterest in preparing matter for thestate exhibit at Fremont on the 29th ofMarch. Work of this kind should begeneral in our schools as a regular ex-

ercise. We are of the opinion that thedirectors could not expend the smallsnm which the paper costs, for a betterpurpose. Written work in our schoolswill give to the exercises a concisenessand definiteness of exercises greatlyneeded. Indeed the solution of thegreat "language problem," whioh hastroubled teachers so long, seems to liein this direction. We hope soon to seethese written exercises become a part ofthe daily program of every school in ourcountv.

Notice!There will be a public sale at Krause

Bros, old stand, Columbus, Neb., on Sat-urday, March 3d, of farm machinery,consisting of stirring and breaking plows,harrows, cultivators, pulverizers (withand without Boeder attachment), "Strow-bridge- "

Last Thursday at the meeting ofthe City Council, R H. Henry, super-visor for the township being present,the bid of Wm. A. Barnett of Dayton,Ohio, for our bridge bonds was accepted.On the city bonds, 330,000, the premiumoffered was 3270; on the township bonds,310,000, a premium of 390, interest ac-

cruing from Deoember 1st, 1887, to be-

long to the purchase. All around, thisis considered a very good sale and thecity and township authorities are en-

titled to no little credit for it. Thework of spanning the Loup with a perma-nent bridge will go forward as soon asthe season opens. Good enough.
