Palmeter and wife of near South Bend were attending the fair and had some corn which was grown along the river, and notwithstanding he was not 'able to get the corn in early it sure. grew and made some of ihe vesy best for he was able to pull down second on while sixty day corn. He also obtained second on winter radishes. j:ut what pleased him more than all was the prize which their little granddaughter little Irene Fitz patrick drew. A very fine baby and one as sharp as she is healthy and good looking. Mary Alice Was Homesick Mary Alice, a young pup of the German police persuasion, was a recent present from Varle Rosenow. of Minatare, to his brother, Elmer Rosenow, of Alvo. As Elmer was not particularly afraid, he did not care for the protection of the big girl, but accepted it as a matter of friendship. Leaving her in the house while they were away, upon their return they found the home was nearly demolished. Then the next day Elmer went to Lincoln for some groceries and the dog went along. When they were passing thru Eagle the dog became lost and was not able to find her way home again. However. Elmer is well satisfied, only hoping she falls into the hands of some kind hearted person..

This checking of the road work has been reflected In the lessening of the work mt the local sand and gravel pits and the orders for sand and gravel which is largely used in the road work in the state of Iowa have been held up until activities can again be resumed. The night force which has been working has been continued on at the day hours and the twenty-four hour operation of the plant has ceased until the weather permits the gravelers and pavers to be back on the job over in Iowa.

In terests Tells of the Evil of the Present Day, Seven hundred members of the Ad-Sell league. present Monday night at Omaha for the first program cf the league's season of 1929-30, applauded vigorously the verbal ex changes of two debators engaged in an hour and a half dispute on whether the chain store system is a national menace. The debaters were Godfrey M. Leb bar of New York City, editor of Chain Store Age, who defended chain merchandising against assaults of J. F. Grimes of Chicago, organizer of in dependent retailors and president of one of the nation s largest associa tions of independent merchants. It wtf a "no decision bout, but variance in the volume of applause accorded the two speakers indicated sympathy of a large portion of the audience with the appeal of the Chi cago debator that business men of "cities like Omaha act to prevent the United States from becoming a na tion in chains." Paints Gloomy Picture. The debate was referred by State Senator James A. Rodman, new presi dent of Ad-Sell, who wecomed mem bers to their new headquarters at the Fontenele hotel. A gloomy pietuie of chain store organizations stretching forth vast tentacles to kill small towns, destroy business opportunities for young men, hold farmers at their mercy in Felling produce, and building an en ormous financial power centered in a few large cities was presented by Mr. Grimes. "It is more than a mere co-inci dence that depression in agriculture the past 10 years has followed the extension of chains," he said. ' The I.fr of the small town, and that's the fanner's market, is in re tail stores and banking. The chains ore destroying and replacing the re tail stoves. The banks are giving up. The rarirer is oemg rorcea ini.i his usual market to a market farthei away. There is no longer the coin petition there v.-as in buying his pro duce; the price is forced down. "Cities Built on Profits." "In cities like Omaha, growth has been based on the retail and the wholesale business. But when the chain comes in. taking all the prof its of business, and sending them elsewhere, Oiaaha loses. Cities rre built, upon rofits and nothing ele. The chain rin.ply milks the commun ity." The economic paralysis in small er conimunitics'tlirt will come if the chain's continue to grow, is not the only evil. Mr. Grimes believes. "What about our young raen?" he asked, and then answered: "They are finding the doors of opportunity closed to ih em. The men who have made their mark in this country have beer, given the opportunity to develop their talent, and test it. in small towns, in independent busi ness. When the chains comes, that field is closed. They speak of oppor tunity in large organizations, but it is opportunity for only a few. The limited number of positions at the top are gained by very few; and in between and at the bottom there is nothing. Says Wages Reduced. "The chain store is the only eco nomic agency in this country today that is reducing wages. In every thing else there is a welcome ten dency toward better salaries. In chain organizations, when prices are forced down too, in order to enable a profit to be made. That is alto gether wrong and dangerous.' In Chicago, Mr. Grimes has been engaged in getting independent deal ers in a number of retail lines to pool their strength in resisting chains. He spends a good deal of his time in going about the country seeking to arouse local business in terests to active warfare against the chain stores. "Their growth is not inevitable," he said. "They can be defeated on their own ground. They can be beat en for economic reasons, and should be beaten for economic reasons, if life in the small towns, life on the farms, prosperity in the market cen ters like Omaha, and opportunity for Americans, is to conitnue in the fu ture as it has in the past." Lebhar Defends Chains. On apostle of the chain stores, is Godfrey M. Lebhar. Efficiency, which in the end means the greatest good for the greatest number, is the reason for the grow ing power of the chains, he said. He scouted the suggestion that chains, by taking the place of in dependent businesses in towns large and small, were going to make this a nation of clerks. "Instead of wailing about the chain stores," he said, "let the inde pendent retailer borrow the chain store ideas, and he can find success. All he has to do is visit the chain store next door. "While the economic advantages of the chain system i.s the reason for , the rapid growth of the prin ciple in this country, I realize that there is, also, a social question in volved. "But nothing economically un sound can be socially sound. Noth ing economically sound can b had. socially. In the end, the growth of the chains must mean greater pros perity for everyone. You do not need to fear too great an extension of fi nancial power. We have learned in this country that an attempt to im pose financial or economic tyranny always fails. . May Cause Distress. ."It is. true that no great' change in distribution or production ran corae about without causing a cer tain, dfcicu:: ct distress. Ths corn ing cf na3 production, the Indus- trial revolution, the introduction of labor-saving machinery, meant dis tress for many hand workers. But in the end the greatest good to the greatest number triumphs. "Fortunately, these changes come about gradually, and nearly every one is able to adjust himself to the new idea, without much pain." Can't Enter All Fields. Mr. Lebhar says he has noted, with pleasure, that independent as sociations of merchants, by adopt ing many of the economic policies of the chains, have prospered amazing ly. He says, too, that there are cer tain fields of business which do not adapt themselves to the chain sys tem, and never will. "The chains," he said, "are best fitted to the handling of staple com modities, and those in which there is a quick turnover. In fields of business where the turnover is slow, where the commodity is subject to shifts in style, where the chairs can not exercise a control over demand or foresee the trend, their system does not apply. That is and will be the field for independent business." Eighteenth 'Amendment a Sad Mistake People Too Proud to Change Law and Admit Error, Speaker at Police Meeting Avers. Marshalltown, la., Sept. 18. The Eighteenth amendment was char acterized as a mistake but with the people too proud to change the law and thus admit the error, by T. T. Keliher. Chicago, special agent for the Illinois Central Railway com pany, before the annual convention of Iowa police chiefs here today. "The law," said Keliher, "is for the purpose of protecting our persons, our property and our rights against the encroachments of others. It is not for the purpose of regulating the everyday lives of citizens who do not need such supervision. We are all for this law just so long as it ap plies to the other fellow and not to jus. But what a cry g"oes up when the authorities try to make it apply everywhere." Chief of Police Alber of Des Moines rapped the state parole law after M. A. Welch, former Waterloo chief of detectives, had commented upon the dragnet system as an "unair means of apprehending criminals." World-Herald.

The Lindberghs now plan only to totich the South American continent following their inauguration of a pas senger line service to cities on the Caribbean sea and the Gulf of Mex ico. "Lack of time," was the reason given by officials of the Pan Amer ican Airways for the change. A trip across the Amazon valley of Brazil also was contemplated in ac cordance with wishes of W. Irving Glover, assistant postmaster general, who expected valuable survey data would be obtained for use of the air mail. CLINTON TRIAL GOES OVER Nebraska City Just before Char les C. Clinton was to go to trial Thursday on a charge of robbing the Nebraska City National bank on Dec. 19, 1927, an agreement was reached whereby the case was continued un til Monday.

Call No. 6 with voar order for job printing- feree Nations Discuss Yorld Tariff Issues British, United States and Canadian Chambers Delegates Meet is Canada. Edmonton, Alta. Taking as its keynote Canadian economic partner ship, 300 delegates from Great Brit ain, the United States and Canada attending the Canadian Chamber of Commerce conference in Edmonton discussed plans for furthering inter empire trade. W. M. Birks of Montreal, president of the Canadian Chamber of Com merce, stated that with the increas ingly higher tariffs focused against Canada their neighbors were willing to sell to Canadians, who were their largest customers, but were appar ently unwilling to buy from them. Urging freer trade within the em pire, Mr. Birks stated that the meth ods of their neighbors to the south were such that a shipment from Can ada could be held at the border and their tariff almost overnight made prohibitive. . The Canadian Chamber of Com merce now includes 175 boards of trade and chambers of commerce. The committee on commercial arbi tration recommended that there be obligatory arbitration between mem bers of any chamber of commerce on the request of either. Complete co operation between parties would in volve an award within 21 days after the decision to arbitrate, and the set ting up of an arbitration committee of the Chamber of Commerce which would promote the uses of commer cial arbitration and give aid in in ternational disputes. , j William Butterworth, president of the American Chamber of Commerce headed a delegation from the United States and the Earl of Stafforn and Charles Luke of the London Times were among the delegates. "The big neighbor of the partner ship" was the theme chosen by Mr. Butterworth. He urged a Canadian and United States reciprocity, free from all political interference, a re ciprocal exchange of ideas and a reciprocal study of problems and as pirations. Before the opening of the Edmon ton session over 300 delegates en- joyed a four-day tour of the Peace River country, now in harvest array, where the importance of an outlet to the Pacific coast for the northern Al- berta crop was impressed upon the delegation. A trip to Jasper National Park also preceded the opening meet- ings in Edmonton, and following tne sessions the delegates journeyed 200 miles south to Calgary, where the interest projects. Of the amount, $1. conference was resumed. 800.580.30 came out of the primary Four noted westerners addressed the gathering, stessing the import- ance of partnership in Canadian com- merce and in international relations. These speakers included H. W. Wood. president of the United Farmers of Alberta; R. J. Hutchins, president of the Canadian Manufacturers Asso- elation .and J. H. Woods, chairman of the Empire Press Union of Canada. The part taken by agricultural co operative marketing, manufacturing and the press in Canadian develop ment and commerce were the main themes of the opening session of Cal gary's two-day conference. YOUNG SUNDAY IS DIVORCED Los Angeles Mrs. Julia Mae Sunday Thursday was granted a di vorce from William Ashley Sunday, son of the evangelist, in superior court. Mrs. Sundav testified they were married in Yuma, Ariz., April 1928. About six months ago, she said, his interest in her began to diminish, and they separated Inst Jirhe 10, after they invited guests to a party at their beach home for that night. "He refused to give reasons for leaving me at parties, rof ro com- ing home late," Mrs. Sunday testi- tied. "I asked him if ho was inter- ested in another woman and he said he was. I never knew who she was." Mrs. Adela Rogers St. Johns Hy- land, an author, who testified for Mrs. Sunday, said she often was in- vited to parties with the couple. She said many times Sunday departed early leaving his wife "to get home the best she could." Sunday did not contest the action. A property settlement was made out of court, attorneys said, but its terms were not revealed. I SHELLED SHIP OWNER TO SUE Halifax, N. S., Sept. 19. Charg ing U.
