We will give your
busi"«ss our best
attention ana care
Among the many enterprises,
accommodations and necessities to be
found in Noble, begining Saturday
Oct 15, will be a Rural Free Delivery
mail route riming east.
This rsuto will give a daily mail to
a vast numbsr of farmers in this
township who are denning and
appreciative of same.
; Noble is justly proud of her Public
I School. It ranks among the best
: school in the county in cource of study
1 and efficiency. It can be said truth-
' fully, thst no other Public School in
I the county has a better qualified, or
a more efficient corps of teachers.
Among the various enterprises that
tend to build up the town, the school
j is evidently having its share of in-
Uueuce.
! Ono of the first questions that a visi-
j tora-kes is "What kind of school have
you?" People will not locate in a
town that has no school facilities.
| Prof. Cro?*, the principal is a gradii
ate of the Peaboily Normal College of
Nashville, Tennessee; and is a teacher
| of experience and ability. This is his
third year at Noble. He has thorou-
! ghly organized and graded our school,
and brought them up to a high degree
j of efficiency.
I The assistants are Mis* Celia Tul-
iius, Miss Hulda Herrington and Miss
Oakie Graham. Each hold sucond
grade certificates, and all are exper-
ienced teachers. They are energetic
and are doing all in their power to
make the school a success.
The members of the School Board
aroJ.A. Shriver, Treasure. C. M.
Hobough, Director, C. 10. Garce,
Clerk. They are all successful busi-
J ncss men of the town, and have tlio in-
terest of the school at heart, and can
I bo depended uooii to do their part.
I Patrons rally to the epport of the
teachers, and cncourage both teachers
and pupil. Examine the monthly re-
port cards, encourage the children to
I study of nights and attend regularly
It takes the cooperation of the teach-
ers, School Board patrons and pupils
to have a successful school,
The world is progressing far beyond
the old ways and systems of doing
oik1 Ihw yc^np man or lady
who starts ont poorly educated to labor
against tliu woll educated and sys-
tematized business world, will find it
harder and harder to gain a hold and
make a success of any undertaking.
Parents should not neglect this all
important duty they owe their
children, but should sec that they
attend school each day.
After the common school branches
have biien finished a high school edu-
cation developes their natural ability
and prepares them to untie the hard
knots and overcome the obstacles
which will daily beset them.
Water I Fret l>ot'|s in at
l'u reel I -Other \Vur h
OlltN,
iNevoi in tlju history of ooiuli
dlan floods have such reports of deva -
tution reached this pity as that which
come as a result of the floods Sunday
aud Mouday of last week, caused by
the heavy rains and lloods in Colora-
do.
Mall service and traffic was almost
paralized from this place, aud the
town over run with anxious passen-
gers for tho south.
The leading business men of Noble
had just completed a m a g ti i fie lent
bridge across the River at this place,
that cost over $S,000.00 and much time
This bridge had only been in use about
ilO days and was tho connecting link to
a vast amount of rich farming territo-
ry.
The high-water notch was raised ~>
feet and 2 inches. Water stood four
feet deep in tho depot at Purcell and
much damage done all along the lo\v
lauds of the Canadian.
Many of our citizens and two ladies
were on the bridge at ihe time it rose
and drifted ashore. Several small in-
juries were received, but nothing se-
rious. Ilarry Beasley had three toe=
broken and several other bruises thai
proved very painful.
Burglar's Work.
Soma time las ■ night burglars enter-
ed the Noble Hardware & Lumber Co.
Store, taking goods to the amount of
$90.00 or $100.00 in value.
An enterance to the store was gain,
ed by breaking a glass from the front
window. Three valuable shot guns
were missing and many of the best
pocket knaves, also considerable ainu-
nition. It may prove later that many
other things will be missing.
The parties doing this work seemed
to be very familiar with the situation,
and left the store with his booty in a
Northeast direction, His tracks show
him to be a small man, The matter is
now in the hands of the authorities
who will use every means in placing
the guilty parties.
Horrible Accident
Last Friday night J, J. Bain, gin-
ner at the Maguire gin, while attempt-
ing to clean the sand l ibs accidently
foil into a 70 oi'.v gin s'.a..d.
It was all done in the twinkle of an
eye and both hands and arms were
sliesd to pieces. Owing to Mr. Bains
strength and activity, instant death
was bearly averted.
Dr. Parker was at once called to dress
the wounds. At this wfitting he is
doing as well as could bo expected
under such conditions. Mr Bain is a
member of the Odd Fellow lodge at
this place and will be looked after by
its members when ueccessary.
If blood poison does not set in it will
not be necessary to tako off either
hand, although it is feared they will
never be of much use to him. leeders
and bones were sawed into iu various
places, leaving the artry visible.
