Mr. Johnson will find that he has a good place to work and an excellent man to work with. County Commissioner Fred H. Gor der, of Weeping Water, was a busi ness visitor in Alvo on last Thursday and was looking after some matters for the county while here and seeing after the work on the roads, which have been rather severe on account of the blocking of the roads so often by the snowstorms. On last Thursday evening the home talent play, which was given by those interested in the welfare of Alvo. was a most excellent production, and il lustrates what can be done for the home town when all are disposed to do their bit for that purpose. The play was well attended and all are waiting for the next, which is to be on the latter portion f this week. Mrs. Carl Wessell, of Nehawka, and Mrs. Floyd Flemming. the lat ter who is visiting in eastern Ne braska from California, and had been a guest at the home of Carl Wessell and wife, at Nehawka, and at the home of T. W. Flemming. of Weep ing Water, were visiting for the day Thursday and Thursday night at the home of R. M. Coatman and family. George W. Fifer, who has made his home south of Alvo for a num ber of years and is counted as being one of the best citizens, with his family, and a family which is hon ored and respected by everyone, mov ed last Saturday to the farm which he rented some time since, which is four or five miles northwest of town. This will not put the family so far away but that they are still considered as Alvo people Making Excellent Fight Mr. George P. Fornam, a famil iar figure in the affairs of Alvo and ihis community for many years, who h:s been at Lincoln for some weeks. where he has been receiving treat ment following an injury which he received when he was hauling fod der early in the winter, is reported as being very critical at his home in Lincoln at this time. Everything is being done for the fighting pati ent in the way of care and medical treatment in the hope of his recov ery. He is putting up an excellent fight for his health and it is hoped by the host of friends of Alvo and community that he will win out in his fight. Home from the West E. M. Stone and wife, who have been in the west for the past nearly six months, where they were spend ing their time at and near Los An geles, returned" home on last Satur day a week, and while they were well pleased with their stay in the west, enjoying the milder climate and the land of flowers, they, were sure glad to get back to old Oass county and Alvo, where every one met them with a smile and kindly salutation. While they missed the extreme cold weather which we have here, they experienced some pretty chilly weather for the sunny clime of lower California. SEVENTH ZONE HAS SLUMP Chicago General decline of wholesale and retail saleB during January in comparison with the pre vious month in the seventh federal reserve district, is revealed by the merchandising section of the month ly business conditions report made public here Wednesday. All reporting lines of wholesale trade except groceries showed de clines, while all but shoes had larger sales than in Jaauary a year ago. Unfavorable weather and road con ditions were mainly responsible for the declines, the report said.

Dur j ing the same period the generator i.pri from 117.733 kilowatta to 130,567 kilowatts, or 53 4 per cent. Marked increases are gnown also for the horsepower of steam turbines, internal-combustion an(1 hvdrn-turbines in use as prime movers. The statistics given in this report do not include data for power plants operated solely for the purpose of supplying current for the operation of electric railways. The 298 electric light and power establishments reported from Ne braska for 1927 comprised 56 com ciercial and 242 municipal establish ments. (The word "establishment" refers to ownership or control; con sequently in many cases a commer rial establishment represents two or more generating stations or distrib ution systems.) The corresponding figures for 1922 were as follows: Total. 340; com mercial, 115; municipal, 225. The decrease in the number of commercial establishments during the five-year period, representing the net result of a gain of 23 and a loss of 82, is due to the centralization of ownership or control and the absorption of inde pendent generating stations accomp anying the extension of transmission lines. . MAN WHO FIRED FIRST SHOT OF CIVIL WAR DIES Austin, Tex., Feb. 28. William Stewart Simkins, 87, professor em eritus of law at Texas university, was said to have fired the first shot in the civil war. Colonel Simkins was a senior in South Carolina Military academy when the whole class joined the South Carolina army and was assign ed to Charleston harbor to prevent reinforcement of Fort Sumpter. Feb. 10, 1861, on sentry duty, he saw the "Star of the Weet," relief ship, creeping into the harbor. He fired the alarm signal. Later he fired a shot opening the attack on the fort. Colonel Simkins fought through out the war and surrendered with Johnson's army in North Carolina in April, 1865. Exports of electrical equipment from the United States during No vember, 1928, attained a new high record since the post-war period.

The scheme has been delayed in coming into operation owing to the, in general, very sound regulation in force in the United States prohibiting the entry into that country of boys under 15 unless accompanied by their parents. This difficulty is understood to have now been overcome. Already two boys have been able to take ad vantage of the offer of free education which the scheme provides, and their experiences have been of the most delightful nature.

"The universal testimony is that rail transportation service is ade- quate, expeditious and dependable. It has never been better. Yet the hope that such service will be re- warded by governmental approval of rates which would yield a fair re- turn on the value of the property de- voted to public use has not been real- ized."

CHINA MAY LEAVE LEAGUE Shanghai The possibility of China's withdrawal from the League of Nations was suggested Wednes day in aispatcnes received cere irom Nanking. These advices stated that Sun Fo, minister of railways proposed China's withdrawal at a meeting of the central political council of the nationalist government. The council decided to refer the question to the forthcoming third national congress of the koumintang, the nationalist political organization. While there have been no direct intimations recently that China was considering leaving the League of Nations, the last session of the leaeue fusal to discuss the entire Chinese situation would mean isolation of China from the league from other nations. serve Bank Report Shows Business Good Industry, Trade and Banking Off to Good Star for year Snow v i , V bllul,uu UUUUlIln V-Wl L UUaU.VA - , . . , January showed an increase in value , , , . 4V. of 17.

Strict Dry Bill is Passed After Bitter Debate Senate Measure Forwarded to Presi dent Without Single Change; Wets arc Voted Down. Washington, Feb. 28. A dry army marched roughshod over the wets in the house today and passed the Jonrs bill to increase the penalties for prohibition law violations with out changing a letter in the measure as it was received from the senate. The vote was 2S3 to 90. Led by republican drys, the pro hibitionists turned back every move which s-ought to alter the bill in any manner that would make neces sary a conference with the senate. At the end they demanded a roll call vote on the proposal to pass it and send it to the president. While the house was taking this action, the senate also was busy with the prohibition problem. That body passed the second deficiency supply bill carrying $2,700,000 that the president had recommended for en forcement, after, by its action of last night, reviving the 24 million dollar proposal by resurrecting the first deficiency measure which had died in conference. Debate on the Jones bill in the house was bitter at times. The wets gained support from a number of drys, democrats and republicans, who contended the measure embodies leg islative errors that should be cor rected. , All Amendments Defeated Several changes to correct these were proposed and the first ray of victory appeared to have dawned for opponents as a result of an amend ment proposed by representative Tucker (dem., Va.) - to discriminate between the first offenders and the habitual violators being adopted by a standing vote. Tellers were de manded, however, and the proposal finally was defeated. The amendments offered included one by Representative O'Connor (dem., N. Y.) to make capital pun ishment the penalty for dry law vio lators. This proposal, like all others was rejected. Answering an attack upon him by Representative Moore (rep., O.) the New Yorker declared that his oath to support the constitution did not preclude his opposition to any of its sections. ! The "Super-President." ! "Are you pledging your full faith and allegiance to the constitution, he asked of the advocates of the meas- ure, "or are you working for the Anti-Saloon league, whose leader and whose dictator sits there in the cor ner watching your every move and who is Bending messages down here somewhere? I do not know. . "He sits up there, Dr. McBride, the super-president of the United States. Manv of you know he is there. That 1s the constitution and that is the amendment you are sup- ' porting, not the Eighteenth amend ment." Moore criticized O'Connor for a speech yesterday in which the New York member said he despised and ab hored the ISth amendment and would not vote for any measure to enforce it. The bill was defended by Repre sentative Michener (rep., Mich.) and other advocates on the ground that while there are certain defects in it, they are minor in character and the law is needed by the department of, justice to enforce the Eighteenth i amendment.

Tires for the new Ford are specially made to give long wear WHEN the new Ford was de signed, it was immediately apparent that a new tire would have to be made to match the car's perform ance. It was distinctly a new problem, for here was a car with quicker acceleration, greater speed -and more braking efficiency than any car of similar size or weight. So that every Ford owner might be assured of maxi mum tire mileage at the low est cost, the Ford Motor Company devoted many months to research and experiment in conjunc tion with the leading tire manufacturers. As a result, certain defi nite specifications were de veloped for tires for the new Ford. These specify cords of certain strength and texture, a large volume of tread and side-wall rubber, sturdy non skid design, and reinforced plies for protection against bruise breaks-all the strong features of construc tion formerly considered for only the largest tires. Great care also was taken to secure the best ridingqual ities in connection with the transverse springs and the IToudaille shock absorbers.

The report carries more than $1,000,000 of the $2,977,000 agreed upon by the eon-1 ferees late in the day for prohibition enforcement. The senate has yet to acton the report. The remainder of the $2,977,000 item, together with the $250,000 fund for the proposed survey commission .to be established by the incoming president, Hoover, is included in the conference report on the first de- nciency bill. which the senate was slated to take up first with the house taking ,flnal action. 't The prohibition funds in the ee- ond deficiency hill report were dis- Though the Ford tires are designated as 30 x 4.50, they have the resiliency and air space of much larger tires because of the drop center rim of the steel-spoke wheels. For best results, the tires on the new Ford should be kept inflated to an air pres sure of 35 pounds and checked regularly to insure this pressure all the time. This is important. Low in flation breaks down the side walls of a tire. By causing overheating, it also destroys the rubber that acts as an insulation, with consequent separation of the cord. At the end of each 5000 miles, when you have the front wheels packed with grease, it is a good plan to have the wheel alignment checked. This will prevent premature wear. When punctures come, as they will with any tire, you will find the Ford dealer particularly well -equipped to make repairs quickly and at small cost. See him, too, for replacements. Then you will be sure of getting tires built specially for the Ford car according y, iu uciiuiio f uru specili cations. tributed among the department of justice, the customs service and the civil service commission.
