S. Senator Accepts Nebraska Invitation to Address Patriotic Con vention May 28. There is every indication thit the loyalty state convention to be held in Lincoln on Tuesday, May 28, will be . one of the largest and most interest ing gatherings of a political nature held in Nebraska for many years," writes Ed D. Beach, chairman of the state republican committee. "In fact that Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin," he added, will be present and 'will be the principal speaker lends an interest which has awakened the state to a keen degree. "Of course, democrats of the state are trying to throw cold water on the meeting and are using the argument that politics should be forgotten dur ing the war. Lenroot Supports War, "This argument, perhaps, would be. a good one were they carrying out that proposition themselves, but . it should be remembered that when Senator Lenroot himself went into the campaign for election on a loyal-, ty platform, that the democratic party sent Vice President Marshall into Wisconsin in an effort to defeat Lenroot and elect the administration candidate. Mr. Lenroot has been one of the strong supporters of the pres ident in his war program as a mem ber of the lower branch of the mo tional congress. . "The attention of republicans also is called to the fact that the dem ocrats of Nebraska already are pre paring to enter the fight and. have been for a month holding meetings in Lincoln, so it is evident that the democratic cry, 'Keep out of politics.' is merely camouflage to 'deceive the people. Douglas Republicans Going 'Therefore, the loyalty convention to be held by the republicans is some thing which all American citizens can well sanction and desire, regard less of politics. There cannot be too many loyalty meetings "in this, the country's hour of need, when every ounce of energy and every dollar of wealth is needed to end a conflict that means so much to the whole world and to generations to eome." F. S. Howell, chairman of the Douglas county republican central committee, has appointed a delega- tion of 146 to represent this county at the Lincoln meeting. . DR. DAVID R.KERR QUITS BELLEVUE AFTER 16 YEARS Dr. David R. Kerr, president of Bellevue college, has tendered his resignation to the board of trustees to take effect July 1. Dr. Kerr has served 16 years as president of the institution, which he will soon leave.' He 'took charge of affairs at the col- -leg in 1890 and resigned in 1904. He was again called to the presidential chair two years ago and now is leav ing the field of active work, owing to advanced' age. , When Dr. Keer first assumed charge at Bellevae, there were two college buildings and 19 students. When he left in 1904 there were 200 students and five buildings. An nouncement of his return to the, presidency swelled the enrollment In' the freshman class in 1916 More than 100 per cent. A farewell reception will be ten dered Dr, Kerr and His wife by the board of trustees tonight .. Red Cross Outfits Destitute Italians In Big Public Sale Padua, Italy, May 14. There was a stirring scene in the central square of the city on a recent Sunday when the American Red Cross began its . sale of garments made by the wives and daughters of Italian soldiers at the front. The great square of United Italy, was crowded with peasant women for miles around eager to obtain some of the garments, for, besides giving em ployment to the women, tha Red ' Cross setts the product at a small nominal price to the families of sol diers. '' In the two hows of the opening sale ' these peasant women bought 3,000 lire . worth of garments, a large sum for people of scant means. The goods . were worth two or three times that amount and represented several thou sand lire paid in wages by the Red Cross to the hundred of girl workers. Later in the day the results of the sale were apparent on the main streets, as the peasant women with . their ohilSren went by proudly wear ing their Red Cross garments, which, ' in a way, hajve transformed the ap-. pearance of many of these people, giving them an air of cleanliness and . comfort Nebraska Boys and Girls In Western Canning Contest Lincoln, May 17.
