vision in eiht hours make l.r)0 more
car miles per hour than a t-i.ty enr
train moving over tlie Mime division
in Mvrn hour. Hence the proMr
loading of trains is a vital factor to
consider.
"Cars ftirn'shed for loading should
be run through to destination, and
hile it is unfair to the lino that has
modern equipment maintained in
proper condition, to be obliged to
handle its business in a great mnny
of the cars that are now in service,
nothing will add to delay and conges
tion more certainly than arbitrary
transfers to keep equipment on the
owners' line. Ter diem rates should
carry penalties that will provide an
incentive for all lines to return cars
to the owners without delay."

Despite big Thanksgiving dinner,
a number of Alliance golfers spent a
Food share of the day on the Country
club links. Dr. J. G. Jeffrey of Cas
per, Wyo., a golfing enthusiast and
an exceptionally good player, accord
ing to the fans, was an Alliance vis
itor and made the course both in the
morning and afternoon. Dr. Jeffrey
agrees with other golfers in saying
that the Alliance course is one of the
best laid out that he has played.

The Country club membership cam
paign is proceeding rapidly. The in
corporators decided some weeks ago,
when the club was formally organ
ized, to limit the membership to one
hundred, and although no particular
membership drive has been on, over
half of that number have made ap
plication. Before spring comes, it is
probable that the list will be closed.
The plan is to begin building the
clubhouse as early in the spring as
possible. Some of the members are
looking over catalogues of motor
boats and it is likely that this will
be i popular feavure when the club
get., to going.

Somewhere, in the vicinity of Alli
ance, two hearts are fairly aching to
beat as one, but the cruel laws of Ne
braska stand in the way. There is
a bar to their marriage a legal bar
j that will stand until exactly 11 a. m.
on November 27. After that all re
strictions are off.
The other day, a couple appeared
before Judge Tash who knows the
symptoms pretty well by this time
and started to open the drawer where
he keeps the blank marriage licenses,
i despite the fact that the prospective
husband carried a small child in his
arms, and a couple others were trail
ing alongside the woman. The judge
i doesn't tell how he knows these
; things, but undoubtedly he is able to
' t 1 i .i i i . .

couples exchange under various cir
cumstances. The judge had dragged out a blank
license and dipped his pen in the ink
when the woman spoke. "Judge," she
asked, "is it true that after a woman
is divorced she can't get married
again for six months?"
The judge laid his pen on the desk.
I "It is," he informed her. "How long
has it been since you secured your

The woman began to go over the
dates in her mind. Women are good
at remembering dates. "I got my di
vorce on the 27th day of May, at 11
o'clock in the morning," she an
nounced. "Then you have exactly four days,
two hours, three minutes and six
ticks to wait until I can legally issue
a license," was the cruel ultimatum.
The couple didn't argue a bit, al
though they might have talked him
out of some cf the wait some of the
months being a day longer than
others. "We'll be bi they told
him, as they herded the ch dren
toward the door.
Thanksgiving day was probably
fairly dull for that couple, but it
won't be long before the demands of
he law are complied with. And the
Judge has promised himself to be at
in.- otnce at 11 o'clock, so the delay
will be as short as possible. He aims
to please, does Judge Tash.
