President-elect Harding's favorite
name for his" wife is "The Du?hess."
:o :
Why don't De Valcra return to
Ireland tnd presiJ-j cer his repub
lic? :o:
ll'o an easy matter to sympathize
with the poor when your pocket is
empty.
:o:
You can still get a good nickel
cigar for fifteen cents if you have
fifteen cents.
:o:-
Fortune may knock once at ever
man's door, but misfortune crawls in
at the window.
:o:
He who knocks and runs away may
live to wield the hammer iu the next
political campaign.
:o:
The Irish should now start a min
strel show. They have plenty of
burnt Cork on hand.
o:o
Consumers of bread cannot under
stand why farmers are alarmed over
the low price of wheat.
:o:
When a lazy man comes home to
supper he likes to tell his wife how
hard he has worked all day.
o : n '
Filipinos are being 'compelled by
law to wear trousers. Can nothing
stop this blight on civilization.
Argentina has packed up her doll
rags at Geneva and departed for
home, but it didn't break up the
party.
:o:
The California mob lynched three
murderers in a cemetery showed rare
consideration. It reduces funeral
expenses.
o:o
Maybe Constantine would be will
ing to stand for a reduction in wages
until the kinging industry becomes
more stabilized.
o:o
Helen Rowland, the bachelor girl
philosopher, says that love is a form
of autointoxication. Now,- wouldn't
that stagger you?
o:o
Pancho Villa has turned farmer
and is raising crops instead of rais
ing hell. However, he is perhaps
more adept at the latter profession.
:c.
If there is any little boy or girl
who is inclined to doubt the exist
ence of Santa Claus, it is up to you
to convince them that there is such
a person.
:o:
The republicans are making many
fair promises, but this will not pre
vent the pets of protection from
plundering the pockets of the peo
ple when tjie party gets in power.
:o:
The consumer probably may be
pardoned for wishing all these poul
try shows over the country would
hurry and come to an end, so the
hens could get back home to their
work.
:o:
A twelve-year-old Nebraska boy
set fire to a school house three
times in succession, to keep from
going to school. Like another Ne
braskan, he was just determined not
to learn anything.
: :o:
It is not every woman who appre
ciates "something useful for the
house" from her husband as a Christ
mas present. Bear in mind that
friend who loves to doll up just like
other women folks.
:o: -
.Sugar is down-to 8 or 10 cents and
A . . -j i. .xi, i rn j t . . .
ittiiuj is oiiii a ij u uu r ul tai.- i
tie are 7 cents and beefsteak is 40
cents. Hogs are 9 cents and bacon
50 cents. Merry Christmas. Peace
on earth, good will 'to men.
:o:
'An Omaha' woman is suing her
husband for divorce because he visit
ed the parks at night with other wo
men. At first we intended to com
ment on this case, but perhaps it
would be just as well to leave it to
individual imagination.
:o:
When you go to pay your taxes,
try to feel cheerful. Remember,
Uncle Sam ha, a budget of five bil
lion dollars facing him for the com
ing year, and the little village of
New York has a budget for 1921
amounting to $345,000.
:o:
Lest anybody be laboring under
the impression that there is already
a turkey gobbler gobbling in our
back yard, w ehasten to give the as
surance that 6uch is not the case.
Don't let a sense of false modesty
hold back your beneficence.
:o:
Herbert Hoover, who kept the su
gar out of our coffee for a couple of
years, says he is going to make the
children of Europe love America.
Unfortunately, whenever and wher
ever we are loved In Euorope, it al
ways costs us money.
:o:
A subscriber writes us an indig
nant letter concerning a neighbor
who Is fattening a Christmas turkey,
and says that the gobbling bird
keeps him awake all night. If that
turkey was in our neighborhood it
wouldn't be a problem at all.
:o: '
Suppose your little girl wanted a
sleeping doll for Christmas, and you
couldn't buy it for her? You'd feel
mighty bad. wouldn't you? Well,
there are lots of little girls in Platts
mouth who will not have dolls of
any kind unless you help fill their
stockings.
PER YEAR IN ADVANCE j
Only six more days until Christ
mas, get busy.
:o:
If it were our affair we would 1Q
glad to lose Clare Barton Smith.
:o:
Nearly half of the cost of the war
to tLe United States in actual dollars
has been paid.
:o:
Quite often the man who is swift
and a good guesser distances the
slow, - but sure chap.
:o:
The art of conversation consists in
knowing where to begin, what to
say and where to end.
:o:
A dull minister in the pulpit is a
sore trial, but the soprano in the
choir is apt to be a soarer.

Some girls flirt with headkerchiefs
and some with fans, but the major
ity prefer to flirt with men.

:o:
The republicans want to repeal the
wartime powers conferred on the
president, but are opposed to repeal
ing wartime taxation.
: o:
Don't give grandma a Bible for a
Christmas present this year. Grand
ma knows a great deal more about
the Bible than you do.
. :o:
The fact that Harding has invited
Bill Bryan for a conference is prima
facie evidence that he loves to hear
things not worth while listening to.
:o:
The glad Christmas season is at

foodless and ' bankrupt. She knows
at last that it doesn't pay to start

Two Rumanian senators were kill

We know a man in this town who.
when he goes to the theater at night,
can't enjoy the show because he is

:o:
The fellow who used to whoop
and sing. "My Wife Has Gone to
the Country," will soon be able to
engage in similar rejoicing when hia
wife gets locked up with the jury
during a long legal battle.
Republican office reekers are find-
ing that, even if this is the land of
the free and the home of the brave,
it costs a good deal of money and a
whole let of trouble to get in line
for the political pie counter. .
:o:
We do not see how Mr. Harding
can possibly use all the advice he is
soliciting. After being in the White
House a while he will decide, as did
Woodrow Wilson, to be guided by
his own opinions and leave the poli
ticians severeyl alone.
:o:
The Republican platform premised
a lowering of war taxes, but there
will be lowering of taxes. Take thH
as a straight tip: . The G. O. P. ad
ministration will increise the taxes
already being levied en the people.
You can howl your "Head off ubcut

K
A. C. Townley will retire from
the leadership of the Nonpartisan
league, according to an announce-
ment from North Dakota. The same
announcement relates that the Non
partisans have lost the house of rep
resentatives in the state legislature
have but one majority in the state
senate. The latter part of the an
nouncement may account for the first
part of it.

The particular things which we
do. the particular efforts we make,
often seem to fall; but it is the per
petual struggle, the everlasting try
ing, the constant pushing that
counts, and that develops men and
women of unconquerable spirit.

Sheriff Carroll D. Quintcn. of Ci'.s
county, is the president of the siato
association and was the chief spokes
man of the law enforcers at the
Lincoln meeting, although the other
members of the party were not
backward about speaking" up as to
what is needed in the way of new
laws to make their offices more
lucreative.
Among" the needed changes that
the sheriffs will urge is that cf rais
ins the mileage foes from ton to
twenty cont,3 as well as the return
of feeding" prisoners from fifty cents
to seventy-live c?nt:r, and when this
proposition was taken tip by the
preride?it of the association. Set ro
tary Duffy, who is the law enforcer
of Holt county, sounded a hearty ap
proval, as did the other sheriffs who
were in attendance at the meeting.
In speaking- of the matter the
State Journal has the following to
say :
"Some of the sheriffs are fre with
the declaration that they've been
gelling the worst of it. One griev
ance has to do with the payment of
premium on the official bond.
" "I get 92.000.00 a year,' said
Sheriff Sheick, at Gage. 'I must pay
thc premium on my bond. Other
county officers get $3,000 and the
county pays their bond.'
'Yes. and they work eight or
ten hours a day while you're on the
job twenty-four hours of the day,'
c i id another sheriff.
Counties Are Stingy
"The sheriif. if he world go nrr.i
ed, must arm himself. Neither the
ftPto nor his county ey.iipps him j
with shooting irons with which to;
hunt down the hank ro'ihcrs
the highwaymen.
"The Nvhraska sheriff';, would
and
hn ve
fur-
a law requiring the county !
nisli the sheriff with two hi;h p;
od rilles and two sa wed-off or
'.ver
riot shot ;;uns.
' Officers take the position that it
not only is unsafe, but that it i3 al
most comical for a sherjit to s;o on
the big highway oa-the. trail of a
desperado utile as. he is properly arm
ed. And in order to go properly
armed, some sheriffs must spend al
most a year's salary. In some cases
the pay of a Nebraska sheriff is as
low as S2T a month and the lower
the. pay the wilder the cou.it ry.
"Sheriff K. 11. Koenis. of SroU:;
!)lu:T county Hashed a hay of dia
monds arid other jewels on his col
leagues. The latter promptly de
tided that at lea;:t one sheriff doesn't
reed a salary increase;. Mr. Koenig
then explained that he was taking
bad: with him one, Boh Lawrence,
alias Gecrse Le Roy, who pulled u
big robbery on his employer on the
rij!:t of Dyceir.ber 10. The employ
er lives twelve miles out of Scouts
Muff. The loot consists of diamond
earrings, geld watch, twenty dollar
crold piece, tie pin. ruby rirg " and
unmounted diamonds all of the value
if $700. Lawrence was arrested in
Omaha.
"The sheriffs of Nebraska are
after permanent relief from the glar
ing headlight. They will bring the
issue before the state leaislat are :
next month and will also urge action
by the national congress. j
"'I've picked up six mangled bod
ies in the past six months. The glar-
ing headlight was to blame.' said j
Sheriff Shieck, of Gage county.
"Sheriff Quinton of Cass county,1
president of the state association,!
promised to speak right up ih school
and tell the governor what sort of
legislation is needed.
" 'All we want is a square deal,'

prisoners. No one needs to be told
tha? it cannot, bo done for that price.
Kiiher we must underfeed the pris-
oner or lose money on the transac-'
tion. We prefer to lose rather than
starve the people who are in our cus-;
tody. Hut it isn't right.'
