Prominent in Murray Life
Dr. G. II. Gilmore has practiced
nearly thirty years in Murray. The
doctor was born on a farm some half
dozen miles west of Murray on Aug
ust 20, 1SG7, and attended schools
in the country until he had outgrown
them and then went to the state
normal at Teru, after which he en
gaged in teaching, being an instruc
tor at Columbus for one year, in
1S90, when he concluded he would
enter the life of a physician and so
went to the Rush medical college,
from which he graduated in 181)5
and immediately entered practice in
Murray, having been here ever since
with the exception of one year when
he was with the American Expedi
tionary forces in France.
Dr. Gilmore was a son of Mr. and
Mrs. John Gilmore, who came to Ne
braska in 1S54, some thirteen years
before the birth of the doctor. The
parents were of the 260 who first
came to Nebraska, landing near
Rock Bluffs on a raft, which they
had constructed on the other side of
the river.
Dr. Gilmore was united in mar
riage to Miss Bessie Walker on May
25. 1S91. and from this union three
children were born, Walker Gilmore,
who is just about to complete his
course in medicine Helen, who pass
ed away from an attack of diphther
ia in 1920, and a most amiable
young lady whose loss her parents
have never fully recovered from,
and John Gilmore, the youngest, who
is at this time about ten years of
age and a rustler.
Dr. Gilmore has been . very suc
cessful in his practice and has also
been successful in a business sense,
having a beautiful home in Murray
with his office, and a farm east of
Murray. Dr. Gflmore has succeed
ed by dint of hard work and saving,
as he has had heavy expenses most
of the years.

DESCRIBED AS SAFE
Denial by an Investigator of Any
Taint of Eisloyalty in Our Edu
cational Institutions.
Washington. August IS. There
Is no necessity for the general pub-
j lie to become excited about unpatrio
!tic propaganda seeping into the pub
! iic schools of the United States, de
clared Milton Fairchild. chairman of
j the character education institution.
I recently in a reply to a letter sent
j out by Mrs. Anthony Wayne Cook,
president-general of the Daughters
of the American Revolution.
Mrs. Cook warned state regents
of her organization against the "ac
'tivlties of those who are knowingly
land deliberately disloyal to our gov
ernment and our political institu
tions, but Mr. Fairchild asserted
that the school authorities were com
petent to handle the situation, and
ithat it was impossible for disloyal
activities or propaganda to get a
start In the schools.
"The hoards of education," he
said, '"are made up of trustworthy
.citizens, superintendents and super
I visors over the body of teachers."
In her letter Mrs. Cook said the
.'youth movement" aimed at the
heart of "our most sacred and moral
j foundations and will, if promulgated
in our secondard schools and eol
, loges, aim to destroy the moral fibre
of our girls and boys." Pacifist
groups, she declared?, "have even
j:ivaded our schools with their doc
itrines. Indeed, one group has a
j widely advertised set of illustrated
i 'school literature,' especially devised
j for its purpose and comments in its
'circular upon its success and popu
larity. The Daughters of the Amer
ican Revolution mean to oppose with
all the vigor and strength of their
beings any individual or groups of
individuals who would substitute
for our great institutions of govern
ment untried theories and danger
ous communist doctrines."
Mr. Fairchild, in his answer, sets
forth that he personally interviewed
Mrs. Cook and others, asking for the
sources of their information. These
had been given, but upon investiga-l
tion they were found to "have no re-
liable detailed information." He'
said he proposed to Mrs. Cook's or-1
ganization and others that it' they j
would furnish positive information, '
it .would be put in the hands of:
school authorities. j

"THE UNPARDON
ABLE SIN" IS SUB
JECT OF SERMON
Evangelist Robb Gives Very Inter
esting Sermon at Christian
Church Last Evening.
From Thursday's Dally
A church almost completely filled
greeted the evangelist last evening
when he began his discussion of his
subject as had been previously ad
vertised. "The Unpardonable Sin."
The night had been set apart as the
one night in which the Christian
church of Louisville would be espe
cially recognized by the reason of
their attendance in a body. The
night was very warm and constant
waving of fans gave evidence that
these folks from the city of Louis
ville had shown considerable zeal
and courage in coming through the
heat to the revival meetings. Twen
tyfive were present from the Louis
ville church and the pastor of the
locsl church bad them stand on their
feet while an ovation of hand-clap-'
ping gave manifestation of the ap
preciation that their attendance cre
ated. '
The choir and congregation sang
as if the intense heat was but a
thing of imagination instead of be
ing real. The evangelist prepared
for the reception of his message by,
having those present listen to Scrip-j
tural reading from the 12th chap-
ter of the Gospel according to Matth-;
ew from the 22r.d to the 37th verses
inclusive. The evangelist opened
with a general discussion of the
groat subject of the Holy Spirit but
made no effort to discuss at length
the great divisions of the subject, '
such as the baptism of the Holy Spir-!
it, the work or operation of the Holy,
Spirit, the Holy Spirit in conversion,
the indwelling of the Holy Spirit,
the personality of the Holy Spirit!
and the witness of the Holy Spirit,;
but dealt at some length with the
sin or blasphemy against the Holy,
Spirit. The evangelist emphasized;
that the Scriptures say what they;
mean, and mean what they say, rela-j
tive to this great subject as well asi
the other groat themes of the Bible.!
He further asserted that many are
confused because that the Scriptures,
teach a greater offense is committed
when evil is spoken against the Holy I
Spirit than when such is said arain3t
either God or the Son. Jesus Christ.
Thin h?i lead many to suppose that
the Holy Spirit is of greater import-j
acoe than either God or the Christ. J
i nis nc pointeu out was an incorrect
conclusion but that sin against the
Holy Spirit constituted a greater of
fense in that in sinning against the
Holy Spirit one is sinning against
oir.piete lint. therefore sinning;
r gainst God the Father, Christ the
Son. and the Holy Spirit, th. third
permn in the Godhead. He further
stated that any sin persisted in un
til death is an unpardonable ln but
not the unpardonable sin. No the
ory is true that destroys the free
r.efncy of man. was another of the
evaneiist's assertions. If man com
mits this sin it is because he shuts
the door of hope in his own face
and not because God would not will
ingly receive him if he would but
CO .ne to Him.
Very great concentration of at
tention was given the evanelist ss he
discoursed upon this great subject.
The results of the service were splen
did in that two responded to the in
vitation and came forward to place
their membership with the Platts
mouth church when the appeal was,
made to them by the evangelist and
by the singing ty the choir, "Lord.)
I'n Coming Home." j
In very brief but solemnly impres-j
ive services baptism by immersion I
v.f.s then observed or three of thej
number who have lately confessed
their fnith in Christ. '
Tonieht the subject for discussion!
i? "Pitching One's Tent Toward So-j
doTB." The Plattsmouth folks have)
learned that they are well repaid for.
their attendance at the revival meet-j
ings In that tive evangelist is always j
thoroughly familiar with his subject.'
Undoubtedly toniht he will again'
demonstrate his ability to instruct'

DAVIS CONSIDERS

h3
Readjustment of Freight Rate Struc
ture An Essential Step Is
Urged to Visit the West.
Locust Valley. N. Y., Ausr. IS.
Readjustment of the freight rate
structure and the full use of the ma
chinery of the department of agri
culture in stimulating the co-operative
marketing movement, are re
garded by John W. Davis as two es
sential steps in the relief of the agri-j
cultural industry.
In outlining his views on the ques
tion to his friends, the democratic
nominee for president has told them
he regarded the use of existing gov
ernment agencies in aiding the farm
ers to market their own products as
cf more practical value than might
be the setting up of new agencies un
der legislation recently proposed,
such as the MeNary-Haugen hill.
A s to freight rate reconstruction,
he has expressed the view that aid
for the farmer in this direction ought
to be possible without impairment of
the railroads. He believes that the
freight rate structure should be
flexible enough to meet the economic
conditions.
Clem L. Shaver, Mr. Davis, cam
paign manager, telegraphed the nom
inee today urging that he visit the
middlewest in September. Mr. Shav
er, who has been at the western
headquarters in Chiago. fent a very
optimistic report cn the outlook
there and supplempnted his wire
message by a telephone call.
After hie Labor day address, the
place for the delivery of which re
mains unsettled, Mr. Davis will begin
a long trek, which will carry him
well into the western territory. He
will make only a "one night stand,"
during his visit to Ohio, returning
here after speaking at Columbus.
At Seagrlt, N. J., next Friday the
nominee expects to make what his
friends describe as a "twenty min
ute speech" at a mass meeting of
New Jersey democrats. "Before that
he will speak briefly to the 6tate
democratic executive committee at a
luncheon.
ADVISES LA F0LLETTE MEN
K. C. Knudson. appointed by Gov
ernor Bryan to be secretary of the
department of trade and commerce,
considers the governor's speech of ac
ceptance a masterpiece. Mr. Knud
son was formerly connected with the
pro restive pnrty organization. Mr.
Knudson said:
"The La Follette and Wheeler fol
lowers would do well to thoroughly
acquaint themselves before they vote
with the democratic platform, with
John W. Davis and C. W. Bryan, for
a division of the progressive voters
m!ht prove disastrous to the pro
gressive cause.
"While attending the New York
convention and before John W. Davis
was considered as an active candi
date for president of the United
States. I had the pleasure of convers
ing with hin concerning the finan
cial conditions of our state. I found
much the er.no idea and thoughts
as outlined by Governor Bryan in
his speech of acceptance."

gation were much pleased yesterday
