Report for Sunday, October 25: At tendance, i.-i; collection, SI. 18. Re port for Sunday, November 1: At tendance, ; collection, . Our enterprising business man, J. S. Reumes, came to the school build ing at noon one day Ir.st week and placed two mottoes upon the walls. At the rate A. O. Ault has been moving lately he wiil develop into a traveling man rather than a merchant. His carload of potatoes have arrived. The way the cars are hitting the bumpboards these mornings it would i-tm the harvesters thought winter was fast approaching, but delightful weather this, roads dusty. It is very seldom a real bird is seen in the fall, but an especially brilliant one appeared in town Tuesday morn ing and acts very much as if it meant to stay around all winter. Mr. Broadbeck, on of Grandma Broadbeck, had the misfortune to slip and fall upon a stairway. lie was quite seriously hurt and his brother, Joe, was called from across the river. He is recovering. In our efforts to secure help to provide for a speaker from Omaha on the suffrage question last week we aie indebted to Miss Valiery of Plattsmouth and the '-Literary'' of Cedar Creek wishes to extend to her its thanks. Ma j be I don't third, as my friends do in many things, but I try to be myself with then;. I may not act ex actly as they do; in many ways thty may not understand me at all; still they love me, and that is the essen tial thing with friends. Sunday school next Sunday at 10 a. m. Time is short until it will be known which is the winning side. Be present and help your class to win. Mis.-, Hendricks secuied some very clear kodak pictures of her the boys') class, taken at the church steps. Any time John Gauer trades his Mitchell for a Ford will be when he knows about it. Most auto drivers keep their tool boxes locked, but John says he carries his Ford there and hence keeps the box open that his friends interested in Fords may in tpect it. jiwi.iwiiM.ni ii iwj ii i.i .. rr j ij L- . . j . ii i r Tits Stromgosft Feme 1 .liAAAMAMAAAM A."

This company owns and operates its own iron mines and furnaces; its own wire mills" and six large fence factories either one of the six being larger than any other fence factory in the world. These facts should be convincing. n CEDAR CREEK, Cedar Creek Lumber C George Sales stopped here between trains Tuesday. Mr. J. M. Roberts of Plattsmouth was in our village Tuesday. Ralph Atwood was in Omaha Mon day. His wife met him in that city Tuesday. Mrs. Hackenburg and son, Russel, and daughter, Lota, returned from Plattsmouth Tuesday. They were ac companied by Miss Cressie, a daugh ter, who teaches in Pierce county, but who will now enjoy a month's vaca tion through corn husking. The pupils of Miss Hendricks' room will enjoy vacation the rest of this week, that she may attend the state teachers' meeting in Omaha. Miss Tremain chooses to continue now, out later will visit the Omaha schools, hoping to see the results of that great teachers' school demonstrated. Mrs. Fred Horn (Clementine Fray) znd little daughter, Marie, of Beaver City are here visiting Mrs. Horn's parents. Mr. and Mrs. Louis Meyers. Mrs. Horn as a girl was well known here and her friends extend to her a hearty welcome. She tells us she has been reading with interest the Cedar Creek items. Mr. Reames stayed lr.g- enough tc say that he would award a prize worth securing to that pupil whose essay proved the best. It is to be written as suggested by the motto, "Onward ai;d Upward." The second motto is the one word, "Think." Both were designed by the artful hand of the giver. Accept our thanks! Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Fackler left their home in Blair, Neb., at D a. m. Satur day. By auto they went to Spring field, where they took dinner with his mother. Arrived in Cedar Creek at 4 j). m. that "day to visit Mrs. Fack ler's parents. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Schneider. The grandparents are especially proud of the twin grand daughters, who accompanied them. We have often heard "Silver Thieads Among the Gold," but some how as Mrs. Hendricks, with silvery hair and a voice above the average for a lady of her years, sang that song with her daughter it had a deep er meaning than ever before. Some how it made me think of my mother's voice "singing in Paradise." Truly I it has been said, "God couldn't be ! everywhere at once, so He made moth ers."' No matter how many threads are "i.mo!ig the gold;" how slow the step or how wrinkled the features, the very name, Mother, makes them divine. Whether or not women are wanted in politics in Nebraska, we do know women are wanted. Women who know their own business better than their neighbor's. Women who are true and ! pure. Women who will not weary in well doing. Women who will daily do loving service. Women who will nor drift with the tide, but who will courageously stem the current. Wo men who will be stepping stones and lift people up, not stumbling blocks to hinder and cause others to fall. Women who believe kind words never di2, and who sow their loving acts broadcast.

Henry Fornoff and wife tendered the young people a veiy pleasant tine Saturday evening. A large, crowd. good time and lunch is reported. The upstairs room of Cedar Creek school was the scene of a Hallowe'en surprise party in honor of Miss Hen dricks and her pupils. The tiny tot? from town came with their mothers as especially invited guests. If we have any excuse for being, it is because we help others to become something they never could become without us something wiser some thing better something happier something more useful. If, on your return from a lecture, a party or a social and are questioned about it and make a reply something like this. "It was great:" "it was lovely;" or "I'm crazy about it," is your answer as brilliant as one might expect? Suppose you give a real an swer, not just talk. absence of Miss Hendricks as organ Sometimes I wonder what a mean man thinks when he goes to bed when he turns out the light and lies down alone. He is compelled to be honest with himself. Not a bright thought not v generous impulse, not a word of blessing not a grateful look comes back to h'm. When he does not hear "God bless you" of the departed day, how he must hate him self! How cheerless and dreary his own path must appear! The chorus class will meet i.galn next Sunday at 2:30 p. m. In the ist, her place wiil be supplied at Sun day school by Mrs. Olive, and at the afternoon practice also. It is hoped the attendance will bo good that we may learn the songs Mr. Gates wishes to illustrate in his lecture November V), while the chorus sings. Twenty four voices responded to the call for last Sunday evening's, service. Cer tainly their presence and songs helped to intpire Rev. Schwartz, but some body said, "Everything gets electrified when Schwartz is here."

Henry's little girl is1 hut a baby. The interest he shows in seeing to it that his sister-in-law, Miss Gertrude Mei singer, and her friend, Helen Schnei der, are in school at Plattsmouth in rime, makes us feel safe for the edu cational advantages of little Mildred. Not only that, but every father should feel a friendly interest in his neigh bor's children, thereby promoting the interests of his community and he is filling his grave with kind thoughts pnd loving remembrances when he does. Hallowe'en decoiations were every where in evidence with corn stalks banked in, suggestive corners, the floor leaf-strewn. Into this candle lighted room the children were ush ered by fifteen or more ghosts, who managed the games until the blinds were lifted. Grace Duff in costume made an ideal "Jack in the Barrel," bcbLing up to hand out apples at lunch time. Anna Schroder in gypsy beads and paint sat in front of a gyp sy tent and made a pleasing "child of Ishmael" as she held the hands of the children, reading them and handing to each its fortune. The ladies expressed themselves as hav ing cr.jcyed the afternoon, and one remarked it would be remembered long by the children also -hs a success ful Hallowe'en party. On the evening of Saturday, No vember 21, Cedar Creek school will give a box social at the school build ing at 8:15. A short program will be fodewed by the reading of a literary peptr. The proceeds from the sale of the boxes will be used to finance the "Literary" and Library move ments and begin the fund for the pur chase of a "Victrola" for the schocl. At supper time the crowd will divide, the ch:Idren going downstairs and in the primary room their games will be played, their boxes auctioned and their supper eaten. No boxes downstairs will be sold higher than 25 cents. Up stairs we will let the boys decide on the amount for themselves. This so cial is for the benefit cf the entire community, for whatever tends for the betterment of the school in any community can but lead to the ele vation of community, state and na tion. Help by remembering the date November 21 and attend this so cial. LI1KRAKY- If you have never visited "Yellow stone National Park," go through it with Geo. M. Gates tf. Lincoln, Neb., in illustrated lecture Friday evening. NovimLur 13, Union church. 8:15 p. m. The appearance of Mr. Gates, with his 20') fine pictures of cteysers, lakes. 1oillng pools, Indians, wild animals, snow-covered mountains, etc., is an entertainment endorsed by college men and the press. The writer, hav ing spent an entire summer in the purl:, saw these pictures and heard ihis platform and pulpit orator, and can but say that Gates' pictures are as natural in their rich colorings as can be pictured. No child or adult can afford to miss this, one of the rr.o.-t pleasing features of the remain ing literary meetings which end Jan uary 1. Mr. Gates receives largs sums for his lectures, but being a personal friend has consented to make his coming within reach. Hut to hear him once will mean you want to hear him again. We have pledged ?10, expenses and entertainment. Anything over his amount will go into the church treas ury or to further the "Victrola" fund. T'ckets of admission only 10 cents, so thut every man, woman and child may hear him. Rev. Schwartz's lecture will be re ported next week. Working Conditions. The conditions, under which work can be "done, are various, but the main condition is physical strength good health. This is only possible by maintaining our digestion in per fect working order. A:, soon as our appetite fades, our strength is dimin ished, our health is lost. It is evi dent that there is something in the body-that does not belong there. We should clean out the system by using Trincr's American Elixir of Bitter Wine at ence. Many diseases are either the result of constipation or constipation is the most prominent symptom of them. This shows how important 'it is to start treatment and to select a remedy which relieves con stipation without wealrf-ning the body Triner's American Eiixir of Bitter Wine. Price $1.00.

PROLONGING THE WAR. England doesn't seem to be in any hurry to finish the war. She says that it took fifteen years to polish off Napoleon Bonaparte. The Canadian volunteers who have reached England are undergoing training in English camps. The Indian contingent is just now beginning to take part in the fight. The plan of. the Allies is to keep the Germans fighting along their present line until their strength is exhausted. Lord Charles Beresford. in a speech at Stafford, England, the other day, said: "The serious time of the war will begin when the Ger mans are forced over the frontier and are in their own country with their own base of supplies." He added that it would take more than six months or a year to put Emperor William on his back. The British state that they r.ow have 1 00,00" fresh troops witnin one day of the line of battle in the east portion of France, and their tac tics contemplate keeping the Germans continually on the offensive, in the course of which they lose many more men than the Allies. At all events, there seems to be no chance of peace at this present writing, and the inev itable result will be to make a mar ket for everything that the Missis sippi valley can produce. The South American trade that has hitherto gone to Germany, France and Eng land will be deflected tc this coun try. Tyewriter ribbons at the Jour ruil office. ti.T..t...-.T..T..
