The manufacture of a new insul

wheat straw on a 24-hour production
basis is announced by the Stewart
Inso Board Co. of St. Joseph, Mo
The name of their new product is
INSO BOARD.
For years farmers of wheat-growing
belt have burned their straw
stacks after every harvest as being
useless, but now science, through Dr
Sidney D. Wells, of the United Stater
Forest Products Laboratories at Mad
ison, Wisconsin, has produced this
new board from what formerly was
waste.
The straw is baled and shipped intc
St. Joseph in large quanitles some
times as much as 30,000 tons being
on hand at one time and by u patent- Champions of the Colored
ed process is turned into what the' - . f. u.
Armour Institute of Technology has
preclaimed as the best insulating
board on the market.
The board has structural strength
as well as insulating value, and is
one-half inch thick. The regular
board is four feet wide and from
eight to twelve feet long. The plas
ter base is 18 inches high and 4F
inches wide. The factory at St

a young girl, a victim of ignorance
as to herself and the world, the blind
ness of one parent and the jazzy life
of the other that permits the girl to
drift into the deep waters of thr
speedy life of the day and is filled
with the showings of the wild par

the younger set with a view of the
equally fast life of the parents
that eventually leads to the downfall
of the girl and finally the end of the

Men Complete First Week in Camp
and Enjoy Visit irom numc
Folks Yesterday.
From Mondny;s Call?
The eighth annual National uuaru
encampment since the reorganization
of the Guard in Nebraska toiiov.ing
the World war, is being beiu ai in
land, where a permanent camp was
established by the state at great ex
pense, following the second encamp
ment held here in 1922.
Tim oniisted nersonncl of the regi
ment has also greatly increased in
size since the encampment nere, uu,
it included only the i:54th Infantry
and a small medical unit. Now tho
organizations include 134th Infan
try, wagon train, motor transport,
hospital and medical corps aim soon
an aviation unit is to be added.
Thn l.T4th is composed of tlie same
four battalions as when it was here,
with J.nt slight shifting around in
the towns from which the different
companies come. The old Annum
company has blown up and Nebraska
nli. two. Uattalion Hqrs.
and Co. A. Major Fisher of Falls City;
is in command of the first liattai
ion. Major Ciine now having com
mand of the Third Iiattalion.
Permanent buildings at the camp,
lncnted on the Platte river, just north
of the D-L-D highway, include some
twenty odd screened-in company
kitchens, the officers mess nan, regi
mental headquarters, toilets, wasn
rooms, etc. The greater part of the
officer's "pup"' tents are also set on
frame floors, with screen around the
outside. The company street pre-
ents a verv neat appearance and
reminds one of the old rantonement
days back in 10 17-1 S.
Yesterday was visitors' day and
people were there from all over the
state to visit with relatives in me
National Guard or view the sights.
Next Sunday is "Governor's day" and
an even greater crowd is expected.
Next vear the state plans to lur-
ther increase its investment in the
Ashland canin by the erection of a
Memorial building, containing state,
auditorium. recreational facilities.
etc. At present the boxing matches
and other entertainment are held in
an open-air arena.
The government provides ample
rations and most of the companies
have a separate mess fund of their
own for the purchase of delicacies to
be added to the bill of fare, and so
yesterday the Guardsmen fared nobly
in the matter of eats.
Although there are practically all
new faces among the enlisted men,
the officers are largely the same as
n command here, especially around
regimental headquarters. Adt. Gen.
Paul, Col. Amos Thomas, Lieutenant
Col. Douglass, Camp Adjutant O'Con-
nell and other familiar faces were
noticed there yesterday during the
brief time a Journal representative
visited the camp.
Plattsmouth had a great opportun
ity to furnish either a Hqrs. company
or a hosnital unit following the en
campment here, but failed to muster
enough interest to provide for the
organization of even such small size
unit as this requires.
The greatest hardship entailed is
inability to get off for the two weeks
taken up with the annual encamp
ment, but in some of the towns pub
lic spirited employers grant their
men leave of absence on pay, while
performing Guard duty, the most
notable instance of this being the
case of Company K, whose members
are all employees of the Union Pa
cific in Omaha, and receive regular
pay while they are off duty. This is
the "crack" company of the regiment
and won the American Legion's lov
ing cud here six years ago, as well
as copping off most of the prizes at
the different encampments that have
followed the one here.
AUTO USED USED IN BANK
ROBBERY FOUND MONDAY
State Sheriff W. C. Condit an-1
nounced Monday morning that fur-
ther investigation into the robbery
of the Newman Grove State bank
which took place early last week had
led to the discovery of the automobile j
used by the bandits.
The car, a Chevrolet sedan, was
found in a hollow on an infrequent
ly used road about twelve miles j
northwest of Newman Grove. It was
apparent that the robbers had been j
met at that point by confederates in
another car, which had driven there
from the opposite direction.
It had previously been reported to
the state sheriff's office that the car
used by the robbers was a large Au
burn touring car. The small sedan
was found to be the property of a
contractor named Manning, at Grand
Island, Condit said, and had been
stolen from a parking place in front
of the Elks club at that place Sun
day night, August 5. Stolen Platte
county license plates had been placed
on the car and the original pair removed.
DR. LIVINGSTON IMPROVING
From Wednesday's Dally
Dr. J. S. Livingston, who has been
confined to his home since Saturday
afternoon with a very severe sick
spell, is now Improving nicely but
is required to remain quiet, not a
small job for the genial and popular
physician. He has been able to be
up and around the home but has re
ceived the mandate of his physician
that he must remain quiet and avoid
his usual activities for some time at
least. It is hoped that in a short
time Dr. Livingston will be able tc
be out and around and to take up
his usual activities.

These prices are approximate and are for
labor only, because the number of necessary
parts needed depends on the condition of each
car. The charge for these parts is low, however,
because of the established Ford low-price policy.
So that you may get the greatest use from
your Model T Ford over the longest period of
time, we suggest that you take the car to the
nearest. Ford dealer and have him estimate on
the cost of putting it in good shape. A very small
expenditure may be the means of giving you
thousands of miles of additional service.
