Insure for Safety, with Boxbory & Pauls The Largest and Oldest Insurance Companies In America HOLD PLEASANT MEETING On Thursday afternoon the mem bers of the St. Mary's Guild and the Woman's Auxiliary of the St. Luke's church were entertained in a joint meeting at the homo of Mrs. A. E. Stewart. There v;as an unusually large number of the members present and the meetings in charge of Mrs. James T. Begle7, president of the Auxiliary and Miss Barbara Gering, president of the guild. The roll call was most interesting and on current religious events and to which all responded. Frederick Fricke, one of the local high school students, was heard in a very fine dramatic reading and which added a great deal to the in terest of the meeting. The members decided to receive corporate communion on Maunday Thursday at the St. Luke's church and all members of the group are urged to take part. The institution of the Eucharist nineteen centuries ago will be observed at the Maunday Thursday services. j Canon Petter, rector of tha church gave a short talk on "Why Jev3 Have Been Persecuted Through the Ages." One reason was that the Jews in the old world were never assimulated by the nationalities in which they come in contact, Rev. Pe-ter stated. An other of the reasons was that of eco nomic and social which had set the Jews among themselves. The third and last reason was that of religion and which had led to the various outbreaks over the world. PLATTSMOUTH'S FOOD STORE . . . always dependable and PAWNEE Quick or Regular Sm. A Ige.

I The local ball players who were last year with the Murray Red Sox are preparing to again play there if the team is organized for the season as now seems probable. The lack of a field suitable for a baseball grounds here has served for the past several years, prevented the playing of the game here as it should be, the shortness of the athletic field on Washington avenue, making nec e?sary special ground rules and prov ing an inconvenience to the outfield ers. The grounds here have been used by the youthful players of the city, however, and in the past season was the scene of many a hard fought battle. The local grounds alno will be in use from now on a great deal of the time by the track team of the high school, which under the guidance 01 Ccach Fred Rothert, will start their seasonal workout and prepare to par ticipate in the last athletic events of the school year. There are several excellent track prospects out this year and should make a good record for themselves. CARS CEASH Friday afternoon there was more or less excitement created along the block on Main street from Fifth to Sixth, in a small car accident. The car of Warren Tulcne was parked on the north side of the street and as Mr. Tulene was moving out of the parking, the car driven by Frank Mrasek of Murray was coming west on Main street. The drivers of the two cars did not see each other until too late and the crash occurred. Neither car was seriously damaged and both were able to be driven from the scene. HERE FROLI NEHAWKA Ernest Ahrens, one of the well known residents of Nehawka was in the city Friday afternoon in com- ny with his daughter, Mary, they visiting and looking after some busi- iess matters. Mr. Ahrens while here was a caller at tno journal onice and renewed hi3 subscription to the Evening Journal of which he has been a reader for a great many years. Mr. Ahrens is locking fine and has the feeling that the nation and par ticularly the west is awaiting a great revival of prorperity and which is already on the way. Journal V.-ani-fltJa get results!

IIi3 large, com modious dwelling i3 built entirely of roncrcte. making: it absolutely fire proof. Mr. Long designed and built the house himself, which required several years' labor. It was perhaps the first dwelling in Cas3 county to be built of cement. Although in no way interested in the manufacture of cement his house having been built before tho local cement plant was thought of he is a booster for cement construction and uses a great deal of this material about his farm.

Test Tube is Seen as Key to World Power Difficulties Arisias: from Distribution of Mineral and Natural Re sources May Be Solved. w-iQhinptnn. A future in which the test tube of the chemist holds the key to world power and the problem of international relations, with addi tions to human knowledge now undreamed-of, was pictured before the session of the American v - - Chemical Society. "The difficulties which arise in world politics from distribution of mineral, and, quite generally, natur al resources," said Prof. Hugh S. Tay lor of Princeton university, "may be intensified because progress in scien tific,' and, most often, chemical achievement may profundly modify the extent of power accruing from the possession of a raw material." Achievements Barely Begun. Chemistry's contributions to civili zation, although already eo vast as to startle chemist3 themselves, have barely begun, it was predicted by Harry L. Derby of New York, presi dent of the American Cyanamid and Chemical Corporation. Chemistry plays a part in production of almost every product, he said, and "as ne cessity has been the mother of in vontlnn. it will be the mother of chemical application." Professor Taylor stressed the Im portance of a nation s progress in scientific utilization of its natural re sources. "The distribution of mineral re sources of the world is an interna tional responsibility," he said; "a factor of manifest importance in the problem of international friendship and hatreds." Ke pointed out that before 1914 Chilo for example had an almost complete monopoly of nitrates, essen tial both for agriculture and manu facture of explosives. Today chemists have enabled all great nations to draw large supplies of nitrates from the air. Chile now i3 suffering from governmental troubles with increased taxation necessary. Similar Threat in Oil. "Now all monopolies of raw ma terials," Professor Taylor went on. may be exposed to similar therats from technical - chemical . progress. Tho efforts of Germany and Great Britain at the present time to derive synthetic oil fuels from coal, to offset the advantages accruing to the Unit ed States from her production of 71 per cent of the world's petroleum is further illustration of the impact of technical achievement on tho con clusions of economic geology." He said that new discoveries about atomic energy threaten to change the whole structure of modern chemistry, winch i3 becoming increasingly in terrelated with other sciences, es pecially physics. HEAR MOTION TODAY From Friday Daily This afternoon Judge A. C. Thom sen, member of the district bench of the fourth district at Omaha, was in the city to hear a motion and de murrer in the case of the Plattsmouth Bridge Co. vs. John E.
