FIVE
AT THE CHURCHES
Baptist ( hurch
A pppn-eyed monster sneaked in
the Baptist church Sunlnv morning
and evening; to see what hp could do
to make life miserable for the dearly
three hundred people there in the
morning and over that, number in the
evening: and a royal battle ensued.
The pastor spied the culprit and put
ting on the helmet of wit and taking
the sword of humor in his right hand
he vaninrVhed the foe of laughter, and,
listen folks actually laughed in
church right out in open meeting.
Can you beat it.
Hifrh places in Sunday's services:
The two hundred uuuk has been at
tained in the Sunday school; the
greatest collect'on yet; largest con
gregation at both hours; six forward
Et the morn'ng services, four conver
sions ami two letters. Thus the work
continues. Let us be thankful and '
keep praying for greater things aw.iit
us.
The pastor preaches his series of
throe sermons on "The Fatal Spot" at
the Salvation Army hall Thursday to
Saturday., Will we have seventy-five
at prayer meeting Wednesday? It's
up to you to say.
Come to the church where folks uie
happy. B. J. MIKORT, Pastor.

Legion Favors The
Reed Amendment to
Norval Language Bill
When Senator Norval introduced a
bill into the state legislature which
nullified to a great extent the Si man
language law, which the American
legion .pledged to support at their last
etate convention, the ex-service -.organization
immediately started out to
kill the new bill. Led by the legion
pot at Seward, Senator Norval's home
town, and by department and post of
ficials over the entire state, a strong
fight has been waged against the
measure. An amendment known as
the Reed amendment to the Norval I
bill, has been prepared and submitted
for the committee s action. The legion
is closely behind the amendment and
is closely watching the attitude of each
individual legislator upon the meas
ure. In a letter given rut by Robert G.
Simmons of Scottsbluff, department
commander of the leg:on, he says:
"The strongest Americanization
measure before the Nebraska legis
lature is the Reed amendment to Sen
ator Norval's bill. The legion is right
behind it. The bill does not interfere
with religious worship in German; it
merely prevents a centralized body ex
cluding English and supplanting it
with German contrary to the desire of
loyal citizens who wish to speak Eng
lish. There can be no legitimate op
position to a law forbidding discrim
ination against or excluding the use
of the language of George Washington
and Abraham Lincoln."

Movie Censorship
Rills Come Up In
House This Week
Dur'ng the present week, the movie
censorship bill, H. R. lin, and the
G iTord-Ryrum bill, II. R. 123, which
ains at the suppression of improper
films through activities of local offic
er., will emerge from the "child wel
fare" committee of the hou e ami take
their place together on the general
file. They will probably be made a
spoHal order to be considered to
gether. Tiiese two bills are directly opposed
to ouch other in principle, though
both aim at the same evil. The thief
objections to the censorship bill all
r.long have been that it creates a let
of new jobholders for the people to
support, that it would open up oppor
tunities for official graft and favor:t
im. and -that a censorship is in ct n-
fiict with American ideas of free
speech, a free press, and free expres
sion. Under the GilTord-Byrum bill, in its
amended form, local officers are to be
held responsible for enforcement of
strict provis:ons against inlecent or
improper exhibitions, whether on the
stage or by means of motion pictres.
They may be removed for non-per
formance of their duty, upon com-
nlaint of the state department of pub
lic welfare, the act applies to mayors
end chairman of village trustes, sher
iffs, police officers and constables,
county and municipal attorneys.
It was agreed bv members of the
"child welfare" committee to place
the two measures before the house
annd "let 'em fight it out." The com
mittee" itself was about equally di
vided as between the two. Petitions
for and against censorship have been
flooding the legislature since the
opening of the session.

RANDOM SHOTS
The seven-day stretch from Febru
ary 28 to March 5 this year has been
set apart by the enterprising needle,
thread and textile manufacturers as
"sewing week." If we had nothing else
to do, we might get ours repaired.
Heretofore we have always consid
ered a "wimpus", a fabulous animal,
like the jabberwock or the Alliance
Packing company, but we see that
some medical manufacturer is recom
mending a "split wimpus." There
should be legislation,
A horse is a tolen bly strong ani
mal, but if we remember Prof. Barker
correctly, its blood contains just one
part of iron in seventy thousand.
Therefore, when you read of taking
iron for the blood, snicker silently and
pass on. It's the bunk.
The Nebraska City Press says a girl
in that town is so thin that when she
drinks coca-cola in the summertime
folks think she is a thermometer.
If there is ever a vacancy in the
high school dee-tective force, we hope
our application will be considered. It
must be interesting work and we've
grown used to living on a small salary.
Even the bootleggers have profes
sional pride, it seems. The last one
takes exceptions to the publicity. A
big, strong newspaper ought to be
ashamed to pick on an unfortunate
hooch salesman.
But the most remarkable feature is
that the first thing a lawbreaker
thinks of is to Invoke the law to pro
tect him.
The best joke of the week is on the
writer of these lines, but, thank
heaven, we can't be forced to incrim
inate us.
That's one consolation for the labor
of writing this delightfully interest
ing column: We have the say p to
what goes in it.
Funnv thiner. but we haven't been

Which leads us to remark that call

Want a Little Bison
In Your Home Uncle
Sam Giving Them Away
The foivst service of the United
States department of p-rriculti're has
more thn 20 mn'e buffalo of varying
size and age, which it desire to ,rive
away or loan to paik or r.ooloTicnl
associations or responsible individuals
who will take good care of them end
use them for breeding or exhibition
purposes.
The bviTalo herd, established on the
Wichita Nat'ona! forest and gnme pre
serve, Oklahoma, some fifteen jicars
ago with a nucleus of fifteen animals,
has prospered mightily. They now
number nearly lot) head, includ;ng the
2S-year-old "gray gander" of the herd
na 1'ftll na Ilia cmnlaL-i n,l IVKl;..
null cait born last spnng. As the
herd has grown the number of bulls
has increased more rapidly than the
cows, until now there are too many
of the former.
Lnder the regulations the forest
serv'ce crn give or lend only one male
buffalo to an individual or institution.
Several applications have already been
received and approved, and plans are
on foot to cut from the herd the ani
mals selected, and crate and haul them
to the nulroad.
Although Uncle Sam is willing to
make a present of these animals, the
recipient must pay all expenses inci
dent to the gift, including the cost of
crating, hauling and freight charges
from Cache, Okla., to the point of de
livery. Hue is an excellent opportunity to
get a real, live buffalo not as gentle,
perhaps, as a kitten, but, nevertheless,
a nice pet if you have plenty of room
to keep him, surrounded by a 12-foot
double-ply, woven-wire fence, and the
price of two tons of hay a year.

Put the Car In Shape For
Spring Driving
It KiUT N ( Y is the proper time to see that "the family
bus" is in good running order. Signs of Spring are unques
tionably here and it won't be ko very long now until you will
want to take tho car out for pleasure driving.
There is no pleasure in driving a car that does not
"work" smoothly. You can't get fun from driving with tires
that blow out or have slow leaks; starters that will not turn
the motor over; or batteries that won't charge or retain
their vigor. '
If you want your car for business purposes it is all the
more imperative that it can be depended on. Ilusiness trips
that wind up with costly delays and various repair bills are
unprofitable, to say nothing of the wear and tear on the
nerves.
