COMPANY OF NEBRASKA "A ffebtxuka Institution" From youth I that there is a have been taught heaven and that these who behave properly here on States, in passenger service, eommer earth will eo there. My notions' cial use and mail transportation. It about heaven have been revised a lot. Long ago I have abandoned the idea that heaven is a place where there is nothing to do except sit on a stone and play a harp or a saxo phone. I think there will be good fishing spots where the banks are shady and there are no hidden brush piles on which to snag the lines, and where live minnows and fat worms may be picked off the bushes. Also I have revised my ideas about who will be there and expect to be greatly surprised in that respect. There are some people I just naturally do not like to be with, do not like to have in the same town, and I wonder just what heaven will be if these are there with full franchise privileges. Just how is a fellow going about making heavenly companions out of uncongenial souls. :o: The chiffon print flowers most fre quently are seen in black or blue and white on plain colored suits of light weight wool crepe. :o: We were always ready to give Job credit for patience until we learned that he never tried to change a typewriter ribbon. :o: One of the great consolations of i jold age is to read a prediction that 1 50 years from now men and women will be dancing naked. It's a funny thing, but you never hear of a Mediterrean fly or weevil of any sort going around putting the spinach crop on the blink. -:o:- Explorers discover a tribe in Af rica whose women wear no clothes at all and have perfect morals. Our morals must be mighty near perfect. :o: The new $10,000 bill contains the picture of Salmon P. Chase.

Knocks out thatrknoclC There is no denying the progress aviation is making in the United appears, though, according to a re- .... cent survey, that while we exceed as to the handling of the mails, we are behind considerably as to pas senger transportation, Europe being ahead of us in this feature of avia tion. But this deficiency will not long continue to our detriment, for sooner or later, likely sooner, our country will surpass all others in all the factors of air travel. The an nouncement latel of a fast trip from coast to coast has given a fresh im petus to travel by air. This time is given as two nights and one day, so that a business man will be able to visit the eastern coast, spend a day on his errand and return by the ! middle of the week. This supposes nothing like the chapter of accidents will intervene. But these are hur ried affairs, but if so desirous, the business man can leave the Pacific port say Saturday night, arrive in the eastern port SunBay night, ar riving home Tuesday night, ready for Wednesday business. The mail service via the air be tween the two oceans has been for months in successful operation, mak ing mail deliveries in New York the third morning. This air postal ser vice has been a success from the start, with the country being rapidly covered with a network of post air lines. In this feature of aviation the government acted wisely from the start, making contrasts for the carry ing of mails in privately-owned air ships. The government is spending large sums for aircraft intended for army and navy. In addition to former ap priations. last year congress appro priated a further sum of $10,500,000 So all around we are making mater ial progress in aviation, and this will continue. A Washington dispatch gives the following statement of the director of aeronautics of the department of commerce: "The conclusion that European air service is still ahead of that in the United States, bo far as passenger air travel is concerned but has no comparable mail transport establish ment, has been reached by Clarence M. Young, director of aeronautics for the commerce department, who re turned from a month's inspec tion of airways and air facilities in Europe. " 'There are many points as to detail and operation in which Eu ropean practice in commercial fly ing can furnish ideas for us,' Mr Young said. 'Nevertheless, our net work of airways and of aids to nav igation and our effective night fly ing installation for mail transport has no comparable duplicate any where in the world. " 'There is the demand there for passenger transport by air which has net yet been equaled here, but if that demand appears we are prob ably equipped to handle it in greater volume than the European air ser vices now exhibit.' " :o: KEEPING PACE WITH CRIME There can be little doubt that the science of crime detection and pre vention has failed to keep pace with the increasing complexity of crim inal activities. In other words, the criminal has succeeded in reaching a higher state of perfection in his pro fession than has the policeman. If ever there was a need for the super detective, heretofore a figment of the fiction writers, that need exists now. Therefore, society may well take an interest in the plans of the Uni versity of Chicago and Northwestern University to establish departments of criminology for the training of police officers. That the center of crime in America should cradle these potential deliveries of society from gang rule is satrical, but fitting. Be that as it may, no better laboratory could be chosen, for the supply of better specimens is abundant there. Present-day criminal methods call for more than fleet feet and hard night-sticks. The time has come to put to work the vast fund of infor mation divulged by the laboratory and clinic. Brawn, courage and per sonality, always valuable, must be supplemented by brain, knowledge and scientific apprehension. Crime is not a mere incident of human re lationship. It is a cancer on the so cial body and well within the pre cincts of the exact sciences. :o: Crossing a street is an exhiliar- ating sport but it is humiliating to be licked by a flivver and thrown for a loss when only two yards from the curbstone goal. :o: ' . Flower sprays are apt to include a full bloom flower of conservative size and several buds with leaves of ! the printed material. We nominate for the Never-Let-Go LPrize of 1929 James Cannon Jr., doc tor of divinity; bishop, Methodist Episcopal Church, South; executive committee, World League Against Alcoholism. In the last presidential campaign, he played Achilles to Al Smith's Hector. He was a far more energetic campaigner than Mr. Hoo ver; in fact he was matched in zeal only by Mrs. Willebrandt. Al thought the Bishop was beaten at Houston. November saw the political corpus of Smith attached to Cannon's chariot, which was also decorated with such trophies as Virginia, Texas and North Carolina. Most men would be content to rest on such a triumph. But the Bishop has again invaded the political field to rally the anti-Smith Democrats of Virginia against the possible nomin ation of a Smith Democrat at the gubernatorial primary next August. The Bishop refuses to countenance for Governoi of Virginia any mau who voted for Al Smith, or who ac cepted or followed his leadership in the presidential campaign. This, of course, would bar from the race such distinguished Virginians as Senator Glass, Governor Byrd and President Alderman of the University of Vir ginia. :o: A LESSON IN WORLD PEACE During the years since the World War, when the wisest national lead ers in the world have looked eagerly for some waj out of the menace of armed conflict, it has grown more and more evident that one of the most significant facts on earth is the 3000-mile undefended frontier be tween the United States and Canada. Here are two nations that have found out so well and are so con fident about it, that they have taken it for granted that nothing can ever make them go to war with each other; thus they leave their frontier unguarded, without a soldier or a warship along its length. Now the English are beginning to realize the significance of this fact. If Ramsay MacDonald and Herbert Hoover confer this summer on naval reduction, the Canadian frontier will surely stand in the forefront of their conversations. It shows what two nations can do if they try. It gives Britain and the United States a mark to shoot at. :o:- Eead the Journal Want Ada. NOTICE TO CREDITORS The State of Nebraska, Cass coun ty, ss.
