HARTINGTON-Probably the smallest baby ever born in Cedar County came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ludwig Bruder, who resides on the Frank Lammers place.
The baby was 11 inches tall and weighs only 36 ounces. Owing to the delicate condition of the baby, he was kept in cotton batting for about 2 months and has grown strong.

HARTINGTON —That Hartington people have every confidence in the future of this community is evident from the many improvements being made in the business places and professional offices about town.
Building, remodeling, redecorating and expanding, the town is holding its place among the progressive centers of northeast Nebraska and no suggestion of depression is evident among its citizens.
Dorsey Office Up-to-date
Drs. Dorsey and Dorsey have redecorated their offices from the front door to the back, added new equipment, surgical instruments and furniture.
The reception room and private office are cream and gold with green furniture in the outer room. Colonial draperies in green and gold with dainty glass curtains lend a cheerful outlook to the windows and splashes of bright color in ornaments and couch pillows take away the austerity usually found in waiting rooms.
Miss Glendora Young, Dr. Dorsey’s secretary and assistant, planned and directed the room decoration.
The surgical room and adjoining private offices are immaculately white and gleaming surgical instruments in orderly rows in their cases complete the impression of rest and aid for suffering humanity.
Bange Building Remodeled
Jos. Bange begins today remodeling his building on Broadway. The entire front, the display windows and the front of the apartments above the furniture store, will be removed and will give way to one of dark brick.
A single door entrance with side lighting will take the place of the double doors and up-to-date plate glass display windows, the older style ones in present use.
Other improvements will be made about the building and when completed Bange & Lee will have one of the most modern furniture stores in Cedar county.
Other Improvements
F. R. Sterling has renovated and redecorated his display room and is receiving and arranging his summer display of electrical goods.
The Robert C. Moore store has undergone changes and improvements that have greatly facilitated the service to the trade.
New counters have been added, gates have been removed and patrons may reach every article in the store with greater freedom and ease.
Manager Frank Ferris says he likes the new arrangement very much.
