The state of Nebraska, in order to make the traveling on the roads by autos safe, have devised a new plan of making intersections which touch state and federal highways, and ap proaches thereto more safe. A sign is placed four hundred feet from all crossroad intersections of highways, back on the side roads, which re quires the automobiles approaching and entering highways shall stop be fore they enter, in order that they may not be hit by the swiftly mov ing cars on the highways. The stop ping requires that when the stop is made that the driver must make ob servation before entering the high way. John Eppings, the patrolman, lias been installing their signs on his section of the highway. SEED CORN FOR SALE Seed corn, Iowa Silver Mine strong test. Tripple graded. G. V.

Pilgrims Abroad It was the glorious sunshine and the beauty of awakening nature that called the pilgrims early Sunday morning to. get read and go. to en joy this privilege, of a wonderful trip to the capital city, there to wor ship with our "East Lincoln church" where Rev. O. W. Matzke is the be loved pastor. We enjoyed the Sun day school session, for one hour, which was followed by a refreshing service that brought the congregation face to face with the sterner reali ties of everyday life. The discourse was based on the text found in Luke r : T. 1 . last sentence. Theme: "The Unfinished Task." (a) Jesus knew ilis task; b) he went to finish the same, nothing could divert him. This was a line introduction to the Len ten season that reminds the church of the price it has cost the Son of Men. to redeem the world. It was a glorious beginning of a perfect day. Thus another milestone is passed in our pilgrimage. Herman Kupke Sick. Saturday morning Herman Kupke was suddenly taken very sick and after a consultation it was thought best to take him to a hospital, where his illness could be best looked after. Just what was the cause of the ill ness we did not learn, but are hop ing that he may soon be well again. ' For Sale. A good P. and O. wide tread lister all in good shape.
