picture show, the Community Club

the "show is run by a comiiiittee oon
f.istinir of S. A. A. Walker, H. F. John
son. W. C. Ojrilvie, L. T. OBborne and
C E. Johnson. The object will be to
exhibit the better class of films and
the action vu taken by the club on
account of the fact that the town was
without a picture show. The venture
is not intended for financial gains and
it is planned to keep the admission
fee down to the lowest possible fifrure.
The show will be run on Wednesday
vnd Saturday nights, and akiitional
frhows will be run if the demand is
sufficient for it.
No Cigareta for Convicts.
LINCOLN Members of the board
of control are not responding very en
thusiastically to the campaign which
cne of the Omaha newspapers has
undertaken to have them abolish
rule now in force at the state peni
tentiary which forbids the smoking of
cigarets by convicts, ine umana pa-
S'-r quoted Assistant Superintendent
ert Anderson of the new state re
formatory as saying that the pris
oners there would be furnished cig
rrets and permitted to smoke them in
their cells.
If this is allowed it will be in di
rect violation of the Nebraska cig
aret law enacted in 197, which for
bids the selling or giving of cigarets
or tobacco in any form to minors un
ler twenty-one years of age. This
law further prohibits anyone except
a licensed dealer to sell or give away
these articles to anybody.
A great many of the reformatory
inmates are under twenty-one yeara
of age. The board of control has not
yet considered the question of fur
nishing them with cigarets, but Mem
ber A. K. Allyn expressed the opin
ion that the state institutions, at lest,
should comply with state laws.
Harding Pardons War Veteran
OMAHA Roy O. Youngblood, son
of F. W. Youngblood, 4307 South
Twenty-second street, Omaha, may
now return to his home wearing the
uniform he wore on the battlefields
of France. There will be no welcome
arches or bands for his arrival ; but he
may hold his young head high and
have, pride in his heart for the part
he took in stemming the German tide
in France.
For President Harding granted him
an unconditional pardon Friday which
not only restores him to full citizen
ship, but also gives him the option of
serving out the term of his enlistment
in the army or taking an honorable
discharge from the service.
Youngblood and four other service
men were sentenced to life terms in
the federal prison at Leavenworth for
the alleged murder of an English
army officer. The officer was killed
at Kant, Germany, in June of 1920,
during a riot
Senator Hitchcock and Congress
man Jefferis made strenuous pleas for
the pardon of Youngblood and his com-
immonit ueiure uig secretary 01 war
ten days ago. They urged that the
testimony of government witnesses
failed to connect these five men with
the riot which resulted in the officer's
death. On the recommendation of
Secretary of War Weeks, President
Harding granted the pardon for the
ve men.

LINCOLN Convicts at the state
penitentiary probably will begin mak
.ng shirts and overalls for inmates of
ill state institutions thin winter. That
was the announcement made by War
den Fenton, who for several weeks has
been busy endeavoring to figure out a
olut:on for the unemployment prob
lem in his institution.
"At the present time we are In cor
respondence with machinery in tnufac
turers and it is probable that another
month or two will find a part of the
unemployment busy at tihirt tnd over
all making," Warden Fenton said.
The warden hopes that the fi.rniture
factory will be running at top speed in
a short time. This factory when in
operation employs about 00 men. At
present, because of the tightened econ
omic conditions, there is little furni
ture being manufactured and about
500 convicts are idle.
"A most heroic spirit was manifest
ed by every man in the Alliance uit
trict present at the convention held
Monday and Tuesday, and there was a
unanimous vote in this first confer
ence in favor of giving the first
$100,000 raised in the joint compuign

Makes Motoring Economies
Not Only Possible But Certain
With carbon cleaned out and a supply of fresh, clean
Polarine, you go faster and further on a gallon of gasoline. '
But that is not the greatest economy of a clean,, properly
lubricated motor. Freedom from wear on bearings and moving
z parts saves much more money. According to leading automo
tive engineers 90 of the total expense for motor repairs is
caused by using lubricating oils of inferior quality or wrong
. body. -
Polarine is made by special processes which render it free
from excess carbon. . It maintains a protecting oil cushion in
the bearings arid between moving parts, and a gas-tight and
fuel-tight seal between piston rings and cylinders.
Polarine is made . in our grades light; medium heavy,
heavy and extra heavy but only one quality. jQet the proper
grade for your car next time by referring to Polarine chart at
our Service Stations or dealers, and you will start cutting downj
motoring costs. '"y .

IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING ABOUT THE HOUSE FOR SALE TRY A HERALD WANT
MS
Are you going to stay home all winter, or will you seek
the comforts and benefits which the delightful, semi
tropical climate of the South affords?
Geographically, the South is not as far away as it seems,
but climatically (in winter) it is about as far away as it
could be and in the right direction, too for balmy
breezes, sunny skies, moonlit bays, tropical flowers and
foliage are the order of the dav in trie winfpr timo in
the Southland. . .
And, those who pack their grips and bid farewell to the
North at this time, reap rich rewards and return with a
full realization ol: the real value of a winter's vacation in
that romantic, historic and beautiful land south of the
Mason & Dixon line.
Instead of saying to yourself "I wish I were in Dixie,"
why don't you go South this winter? The cost is low
perhaps not as much as you thought it would be, when
the price of things generally is considered, and you de
duct the cost of staying at home.
Tickets covering tours to Florida, the South Atlantic
and Gulf Coast states, Texas and Cuba are now on sale.
You can go' one way and return another; there is splen
did train service via Denver, Kansas City, St. Louis and
Chicago; liberal stop-over privileges, final return limit
May 31, 1922.
When you're ready, I'll gladly help you
plan your trip and make
your reservations. j
