HARTINGTON — With horns blowing and headlights flashing in the darkness, Company F of the Nebraska National Guard returned last Saturday evening from Omaha where they had been on riot duty in the street car strike area for a week.
The local Guardsmen had been transported to the metropolis in local trucks, but they rode back in 10 army trucks of the Fremont Transport Company. When the fleet reached Coleridge, the fire whistle here was blown to inform people here that Company F was approaching the city.
As the trucks rolled into the city and up to the armory, the Hartington band struck up a martial air and the crowd cheered. Hundreds of people, including the families and other relatives of the Guardsmen, turned out to greet the Company upon its arrival.

HARTINGTON — The long drouth which has devastated Cedar County for a number of years and which reached its climax in the almost complete crop failure in 1934, is reflected emphatically in the figures contained in the annual report of County Assessor J.H. Edwards, released for publication this week.
The report is compiled from 5,304 schedules, which is fewer than last year. The previous year 5,592 schedules were turned in, the difference being due to the greatly reduced amount of grain on area farms.
