FORMER PASTOR HERE IS GALLED BY DEO IN WEST Kev. B. F. Dungan, in Charge of the Christian Church Here Several Years Ago, Passes Away From Thursday's Dally. The old ; f riends in this city of Rev. It. M. Dungan. at one time pas tor of the Christian church here, will regret to learn of his death, which occurred two weeks ago at Glendale, California. The first news of the death came to friends here to day when they received an account of the funeral services. From the Glendale Tribune is tak en the following account of the passing of Rev. Dungan: - "In the First Christian church, where he had been pastor for nearly four years, and before the pulpit where he- had so often spoken, the Rev. R. M Dungan lay at rest yes terday afternoon while hundreds of his former church members and old friends came to bid him a last good bye. Beside the presence of friends there was the silent tribute of the flowers which were banked about the platform in wondrous beauty, telling eloquently of the love and esteem in which the late pastor was held. "Jhe last rites were held at 2:30, the auditorium of the church being filled long before that time. The service was opened by the choir singing the well known hymn, Sometime We'll Understand,' Mrs. A. W. Bates, choir director, acting aa accompanist. "The Rev. F. M. Dowling, of Ana heim, supply pastor during the ab sence of the Rev. Morton L. Rose, read the scripture for the occasion, and, by request, the tenth chapter of Romans beginning with the thirteen th verse, 'For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved." this being the last passage of scripture read by the late pastor be fore leaving the pastorate of this church. "The Rev. Mr. Bassett, of the First Christian church of Riverside offered prayer in which he referred to the Rev. Mr. Dungan as a man of great love and broad sympathies. "Miss Ida Knadler with heartfelt tenderness sang the beautiful solo, 'Does Jesus Care?" "Then the Rev. Alden Lee Hill, pastor of the Highland Park church, of which the deceased was a member, spoke eloquently as pastor and friend, intimating that Mr. Dungan's wish would be that of John's mother in the matchless 'Bonnie Briar Bush' story to 'Speak a gude word for Jesus Christ." "Following Mr. Hill's address, Mrs. Bates sang in her tenderest and most imressive manner the solo, 'The City Four-Square." i "The service closed with the. talk of the Rev. S. M. Bernard of Van Nuys. Mr. Dungan's most intimate friend. After the reading of the obituary, Mr. Bernard gave tribute to the character of Mr. Dungan, speaking of him as a man of pure living, who in all his pastorates lived free from any cloud of suspicion; a man of warm personal friendships who drew men to him as so few are able to do, through his sense of hu 'mor and his sympathy for and un derstanding of men. 'He was whole souled and had remarkable power as a preacher, preaching the gospel in purity and simplicity. He was a splendid executive also," said the speaker, 'as witness this church freed of debt and the fine parsonage bought and paid for. He was true to the old book and was possessed of a faith as pure and simple at the age of 52 as he had when but a schoolboy of 15." "A long cortege of automobiles. wound its way to Mountain View,: wnere Mr. Uungan was laid to rest. The six active pallbearers were all men who had joined the church dur ing the pastorate of Mr. Dungan and the honorary pall bearers included the board of elders, the board of dea con and the board of trustees. "The Rev. Mr. Hill read the scrip ture at the graveside and the Rev. Mr. Bernard offered the closing pray er." The Glendale paper also describes In detail the floral offerings which included scores of floral pieces from churches and church organizations. At the request of Mrs. Dungan the boquets were later sent to the hos pitals. MEETING ON THE GREEN This morning while the orb of day was slowly climbing skyward, a party of several of the members of the Plattsmouth golf club motored to Weeping Water where they met the golf enthusiasts of that city in a ser ies of games. While the Weeping Water players have the advantage of a little more experience at the game, the Plattsmouth enthusiasts left with lots of pep and well laid plans to show up some high scores that will make our neighbors sit up and take notice. WRITES OF OLD TIMES . Reading the account of the birth day anniversary of Burwell Spurlock at York, has prompted C. W. Green, now living at Lincoln, to send to the Journal a few words of tribute to Mr. Spurlock and some remarks relative to the old days when they were both residents of Plattsmouth. While Mr. Spurlock is celebrating his eighty eighth anniversary, Mr. Green can go him a few years better however, as he is ninety-one years of age. Mr. Green and the Spurlock family be came acquainted in Plattsmouth forty-five years ago and were for many, many years co-workers in the old Methodist church " in this city, of which they were all devout members for their lifetime. One incident that is especially re-J vaucu ! -.HI. UIOCU IC1IIITO tV Hi C I old days in Plattsmouth is that of at which a prize was given for the one giving the greatest vnumber of quo tations from the Bible, and the hon or was won by a Sunday school stu dent.

While here Mr. Stiles visited the Journal office and also called on Mr. E. H. Wescott, secretary of the local Chamber of Commerce, reiterating his former proposal to assign Plattsmouth another broadcasting date from Sta tion WOAW at any time, and it is highly probable negotiations will be concluded for the giving of such a concert around September 24th, when the static will be well cleared up and the number of regular listeners to WOAW increased by several hundred thousand compared with the present time. STAGE A REAL GAME This morning Carl Strong, the well known baseball catcher, who was with the Burlington team here the fore part of the season, came In from Rock Port, Missouri, where he played yesterday with the Rock Port team in a red hot battle with the Tarkio, Missouri, team.

One Dollar Saved Represents Ten Dollars Earned The average man Goes not save to exceed ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in liv ing expenses for every Collar saved. That being the case he cannot be too careful about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly in vested, like buying seeds for his gar den, will save several dollars later on. It Is the same in buying Cham berlain's Colic and Diarrhoea Rem edy. It costs but a few cents and a bottle of it in the house often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars. Weyrich & Hadraba.

Seventy-five of every 100 persons working in Ne- hranVa are their "own bosses" are (working for themselves Instead of for others. j From the standpoint of economic 'independence, the overwhelming ma lioritv of Cornhusker farmers are more independent than bankers," more than half of whom are classed as "employes." x These outstanding facts have been developed by a re-classification of the census of occupations just com pleted and announced by the bureau of statistics of the department of labor. The conclusion drawn from exten sive studies of statistical experts is that, despite, his many vicissitudes, disappointments and sacrifices, the Nebraska farmer, as well as his brethren of other states, is holding on with bull-dog determination to the strictly individualistic position that from earliest days has set him apart in American industry. While some ground has been lost during the so-called "age of the ma chine," the farmer of Nebraska re mains and will for some time con tinue to be a self-contained indus trial unit regulating his affairs in accordance with his own conception of what is best for him. Few Bakers in Boss Class For Nebraska, and the nation as a whole, the number of persons en gaged in farming is almost precisciy the number of persons engaged in manufacturing. Of the 10,682.944 individuals en gaged in general farming. 8,240.400 are classified as employers and inde pendent workers, while 2,442,544 are set down as employes. The situation is just the other way 'round as regards manufacturing. Here are found 10,158,253 persons gainfully employed of whom 9,372, 595 are "hands," 254,615 are officials and managers, and 531,043 are "bosses" or independent workers. Nearly eight out of ten" farmers are so-called free workers, while about eight out of ten persons en gaged in manufacturing enterprises are expected to do what they ere told. This happy situation in which the farmer finds himself contrasts sharp ly with that of bakers, for instance, only 3 per cent of whom are in the "boss" class. Blacksmiths, who '. a few genera tions ago, were intense individualists, today have practically been submerg ed in mechanical production, only 10 per cent being free workers. Newsboys Their Own Bosses Newsboys continue to work, large ly for themselves, only 25 per cent being placed id the "employe" class. But ten out of every hundred boot blacks own their own boxes and brushes . Milliners are clinging to the old order, 75 per cent working for them selves. Undertakers also have man aged to maintain their position of economic independence, 75 per cent being in the employer or proprietor class. Seventy per cent of all artists and 90 per cent of all actors, on the other hand, look forward to the weekly pay envelope which comes from their "bosses." The status of the barber also has materially changed, only twenty of each 100 now being employers. The jewelry has slowly given way to fac tory production until eight of ten are -carried on some employer's pay roll. Alvo News Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Zeman are here from Winona, Wisconsin, visit ing for a few week3.

Lac AL HIRAM JOHNSON'S HAT BELIEVED TO BE IN THE RING At Least That's Washington View After Californian Flays Hard ing's Foreign Policy. Washington, D. C, July 26. Hiram Johnson's hat is in the ring. This was the view taken in Wash ington today of the California sena tor's New York speech, in which he bitterly assailed the administration's foreign policy and flung out a bold challenge to President Harding to make it an issue at the polls. The defiant tone of Senator John son's speech exceeded exRectations and although he carefully refrained from any discussion of his candidacy his utterances, in the opinion of ob servers here, were plainly subject to the interpretation that he means to fight President Harding's renomina tion on the world court issue. Much significance was attached to that part of his New York speech in which be declared he "could not for give the man who decides this na tion's future solemnly by the pres ent apparent necessity of partisan politics," and. when he added, "what we condemned under a democratic administration we will not accept under a republican administration." These statements, coupled with this demand for a showdown, defi nite and final, on the question of entering foreign entanglements, sounded like war talk to the eager ears of Washington politicians. The strategy of Senator Johnson's campaign was clearly marked out when he warned the conservatives in his audience that they must ac cept a progressive or run the risk of being forced to accept a radical He probably had the Minnesota elec tion results in mind when he said: "I suggest to my conservative brethren that recent events indi cate they must choose whether pro gressive things will be done in a con servative way or in a radical way. You may have to take progressivlsm or radicalism will take you. In other words, Senator Johnson sees the country -drifting towards radicalism, and he offers himself as the candidate best able to check it a compromise between Harding and La Follette or Ford. His friends here make no secret of their hope that it will eventually become ap parent to President Harding that he cannot be re-elected, and that - he will step aside to permit the nomina tion of such a man as Johnson, who, they contend, could win progressive votes and carry the republican party to victory in 1924. Despite the vigor of Senator John son's criticism of the administra tion's foreign policy, his friends here declare that he has no thought of bolting and Joining any third party movement. He is confident, they say, that the differences can be fought out within the party. MARRIED AT COURT HOUSE From Thursdays Dally. Yesterday at the office of County Judge Beeson occurred the marriage of Mr. Richard E. Hunter and Miss Marie F. West, both of Omaha. The ceremony that was to Join these two happy hearts was witnessed by Rob ert Walling and Deputy County Clerk Will T. Adams. PERSHING RE CALLS VILLA General Once a Friend of Mexican, Sat Does Not Care to Com ment on His Killing. New Orleans, July 27. General John J. Pershing, on a tour of inspec tion of army posts, passed through New Orleans on his way to San An tonio. It was said he expected to join President Harding and his par ty in Los Angeles. The first person to greet General Pershing on his ar rival was Col. George B. Shanton, in charge of the federal department of Justice here. Colonel Shanton, who is the original "Virginian" of Owen Wister's novel of that name, was a close friend years ago with General Pershing at Cheyenne, .Wyo., when the general was a young officer and Shanton was a cowpuncher. General Pershing later married the daugh ter of Senator Warren, who was Shanton's guardian. General Pershing refused 'an ex pression on the recent slaying of Francisco Villa, whose operations prompted the punitive expedition in to Mexico, but there was a trace of regret in his voice when Villa's name was mentioned.
