Patterns 1607-1890(tape)
This is our last
meeting until September
~~~~~~~~~~~
The month of May
has found our library quite busy, and they were from Wisconsin, New
York, and Norfolk NE. We were so happy to be able to give them
informative information from our old newspaper files and books on the
shelf for Dodge County.
We had a very
interesting and informative program for May. Joe Dickmeyer displayed
his many bottles from Dodge County, one going back to the 1860’s. Many
were medicinal bottles. There were blown bottles and some were molded.
The molded ones having a seam on the neck so it was easy to know the
difference. The members enjoyed the crockery jugs as well.
During the summer
months, if you have need of the library, please call and make an
appointment with Claire 1-402-721-9553. She will be in and out most of
the time, helping her sister in work on her 1891 brick home at Hebron,
Nebraska. The restoration is time consuming but will be great when
finished. Sorry, but Snuggles refuses to answer the phone!
DID YOU KNOW?
The average
person’s left hand does 56% of the typing.
There are 293 ways to
make change for a dollar.
The sentence: “The
quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog” uses every letter of the
alphabet.
The cruise liner,
QE2, moves only six inches for each gallon of diesel that it burns.
TYPEWRITER is the
longest word that can be made using the letters only on one row of the
keyboard.
EVER WONDER
Why do they sterilize
the needle for lethal injections?
Why isn't there
mouse-flavored cat food?
Why is the man who
invests all your money called a broker?

SENIORS GET THEIR
DIPLOMAS
--------
Commencement at Hooper.
Hooper, June 1 - The
past week has been a busy time for the graduates and their friends, with
the work that comes with the closing of the school year.
It was the intention
to hold the class day exercises in the city park on Wednesday afternoon,
but on account of the dampness, they were given at the opera house.
Orations were
delivered by the graduates, and several musical selections formed a part
of the afternoon's program. The Hooper cornet band was present and
rendered several selections.
In former years the
girls usually outnumbered the boys, but this year, the class was
composed of one lady and six gentlemen, the members being Miss Anna
Harms and Messrs Alfred Dern, Jonah Rupert, Lyman Sanders, Roy Canaga,
Howard Wagner and Charles Sauers.

North Bend - The
regular annual commencement of the North Bend high school was held at
the opera house last Friday evening. The program was well rendered and
an oration given by each graduate though the class was large. There
were the following sixteen graduates: Clarence Walrath, Bertha Allen,
John Purcell, Loren Edson, Andrew Harvey, Mary Seelig, Elizabeth
Ladenburger, Mabel Acom, Margaret Kimbrough, Lizzie Powers, Herbert
Armstead, Asa Farnham, Flora Conley, Helen Verhs, Fred Swan and Theola
Linn. There was a severe hail and rain storm on that evening but
nevertheless the house was crowded to its utmost capacity. Music was
furnished by the North Bend orchestra and in addition vocal music
rendered by Professor McProud, Miss Flora Conley and Miss Virginia
Francis. After the presentation of diplomas a short speech was made by
the president of board of education, C Cusack, and the program closed
with the benediction given by Rev Warren.
