Since 1879 COEN IN EGYPT There is corn in Egypt, said the patriarch to his sons, So waste no time but take plenty of funds, And go to Tharach and knock at his door. Perhaps he will open it, if you simply implore. The famine is grievous and our stock looks gaunt, And our families are famishing with hunger and want. Why look ye with such a vacant stare, When you know there is corn iu Egypt and some to spare? So the sons took their wagons and to Egypt went, And approached the governor who before them were sent. Who stored up the corn from seven years' yield, From bounteous crops that grew in the field. Joseph was governor and thought it was grand, To see his brethren from a far distant land. To buy corn in Egypt for their families and kine, To rave an old patriarch from the hunger line. Tliere was plenty of corn, as the story is told, Portrayed in its beauty it never grows old. The hand of Providence was therefore seen. For their flocks and herds were taken to pastures green. There is plenty in Egypt though the country is dark. But fear don't help to kindle a spark Of faith so needed in this Egypt of despair. To go to your neighbor and in voke him to play fair. The rains will come and floods cf light. Has already been shown to those who desire the right, That the Omnipotent law i3 spirtual and grand. And the obedient shall be fed though strangers to the land. Why stay in Egypt, ye lovers of truth, Where darkness prevails and contaminates youth. With spiritual tinderstanding no darkness can spread, Since intelligent production and distribution, will provide us with bread. J. R. T.

When certain business concerns are held up and robbed frequently, it is a fair sign that business is good in their particular lines, but about the only way to be sure when movie actors are really in the money is to find their names in the divorce news.

PLATTSMOUTH Bond, Colo. America's newest, shortest transcontinental railroad route came into being here Satuiday. J Whila more than 4,000 persons cheer ed and Bhouted, the 38-raile Dotsero cutoff, built by the Denver & Rio Grande Western railroad was dedi cated formally, and the fifty year old dream of Davis Moflctt that some day Denver would be on a transcon tinenal line came true. Governors of two states. Utah and Colorado, their capitals brought 173 rail miles nearer each other by the cutoff opening, the mayors of Salt Lake City and Denver, and a galaxy of famous railroad men were here to see the cutoff opened. With hundreds of business men, civic boosters, reporter.- and others they rode into Bond in the finest rail equipment available. The Burlington Zephyr, holder of the world's non stop speed record, was there.

At 1:30 p. m. the tone of a Rio Grande locomotive bell were sounded. Then into the cutoff,' gcing from east to west, moved a 100 foot mountain locomotive, the finest of heavy type engines, drawing behind a luxurious passenger train. Just behind came the silvery Burlington Zeplu r. Last of all. a great freight engine, draw ing behind it a long string of freight cars snorted cut into the cutoff. State Journal.
