The Galloway cattle which Emmet Mark has had on the Rusch ranch the past summer were brought down this week and they .look fine, the ranch having proved a great place for them.

Mark Live Stock Co. will be held on Satur day the fifth, and it is going to be a big sale, from all accounts.

We are going into winter quarters with most of the sidewalks of the town in poor condition, verv few having been properly repaired the past sum mer and fall. The council has made very little progress in the matter and it will devolve on another council to take up the matter, and let us hope it will not follow in the footsteps of the councils that have gone before. Let's wake up and shine up. Nature has done a whole lot for the town, much more in fact than the people have ever done for Princeton in the way of beau tifying and improving the place. The outlook for entertainments at the opera house the coming winter are not the best. Last winter the people of Princeton enjoyed a series of enter tainments giveii under the auspices* Of lyeeum burfeau. Rev. Gratz mafle the contract ""and the entertainments were given of course for the benefit of the M. E. church, which, however, did not make very much from them, but thoje who like entertainments of this character had the pleasure of attend ing them, some of which where very goltid. Mr. Gratz did not like to take up the matter again this winter as he said that he was afraid that some peo ple might think that he was asking too much of the people of Princeton, as some looked upon the matter as a sort of begging affair. Princeton is in need of some good high-class shows and en tertainments. We have a good opera house for them and it would seem that with our short distance from the cities th#t w& aright be able to seewe raore of thesie'ehtertainmeits andf sfiows. _42 NOTEMBER 26^19087 Did you get a turkey at the raffle?

County Treasurer Burrell and County Auditor Whitney were kept pretty busy Tuesday at the land sale. Mr. Whitnej acted as clerk at the sale and when it came to issuing the cer tificates he was a very busy man for some time. County Auditor Tomp kins of Redwood county who was at the sale, assisted Mr. Whitney at the desk during a'part of the afternoon. Mr Burrell was doing a land office business taking in the money and making out the receipts for the pay ments. He took in about $15,000 from the parties who bought land. There was a happy crowd of young people at the depot last night to meet the Princeton boys and girls who are attending schools and colleges in the twin cities and who came home to spend Thanksgiving and remain over Sunday with their folks. The glad hand was passed around in a hearty manner and it made one feel young again to see them greet one another. Those who came home were the Misses Avis Eaton and Lela Spaulding, Adon Whitney, Roy Farnham, Fred Bur rell. Max Cordiner. Gordon Young, Ralph Pierson and Serenus Skahen. The heating plant at the high school has gone the way of most all the heat ing plants that have been placed in the buildings of Princeton and is de ficient in radiating service. In the two north rooms in the high school building there is not as much radiat ing service as there is in the rooms on the south side of the building where there is the sunlight most 'of the day to, assist in heating the rooms. There is a third less radiation in the north rooms than there is in the south rooms, and the janitor will not be able to get the temperature in the north rooms up to 60 in real cold weather unless there is more radiation placed in the rooms. The boiler is plenty large enough, but the architect has made the same mistake that so many of them make, by pinching oh the heating plant somewhere. It seems very strange indeed that an architect is not able to properly estimate and figure out the amount of radiating sur face necessary to heat a certain room in a building. Common sense alone ought to be sufficient to enable a per son to realize the importance of pro viding for more heat in a north than in a south room.
