NEW HIGHWAY IS
l'LANNKI) FOR ALLIANCK
(Continued from Page 1)
Gulf of Mexico will be the result of a
meeting that was held here Wednes
day by u large delegation of business
men und highway boosters from cen
tral western Nebraska to northern
Texas. It will be the only north and
Fouth highway that crosses every
transcontinental east and west hih
ay in the United States. It will in
tersect fourteen national highway in
its route from Canada to the Gulf.
It will be called "The Memorial High
way" in honor of the boys who gave
their lives in the Civil, .Spanish-American
or World War, and each sector
ftlong the way will be named after
tome soldier who gave his life, who
resided in the county through which
the road passes. The marker will be
of stone or similar substance, and
name of each sector will be served on
the stone marker. It will be a prac
tical memorial as explained by the
Secretary J. K. Hutte at the meeting.
"Mr. IJutte, is an ex-soldier himself
ami left one of his leirs on the battle
field of France. Hut he did t leave his
irain there, nor his good judgment,
lie in a live wire and appears to be a
young man who is abounding in good
sense and he has a practical way of
telling about this highway movement,
lie says people built monuments to the
ex-soldiers, which is alright, but all
they are good for is as a remem
brance, while the money spent in build
ing and marking The Memorial high
way will be a practical expenditure
and something that will do some good,
and stand as a much greater momento
to the bovs who left us. The president
Martin, both of whom live at .Stratton,
Nohmskn. is also an enthusiastic
officer and handled the affairs of the
meeting in a very satisfactory manner,
Enthusiastic Meeting.
"The meeting was one of the mo?t
enthusiastic oi its kind ever held here.
Large delegations came from Canadian
and 1'erryton, Texas; Liberty, Garden
City, Oakley, Colby, Atwood, Kansas;
nd Stratton, Waunita, Dig Springs,
Nebraska. Although Scott City was
ready for them in. every way we were
really surprised at the enthusiusm
shown by the visitors and before they
left, Scott City had gotten the fever.
Four directors were chosen from the
out her a end during this meeting,
which were men from Ferryton, I i
eral, Garden City and Colby. The
present vice-president which has mov
ed olI'the road will be chosen from
Scott City in the near future. F.ach
town and community will contribute
as a whole in their dues instead of
having a membership fee. The aiiiivmt
will be decided upon by the Imard of
directors. Between two ami three
hundred people attended the meeting
during the aiternoon.
"In th evening a banquet was served
to the visitors by the Scott City bu;i
mss men at the grade school cafeteria.
About one hundred local men and vis
itors were present, and the affair was
generally decided to have been one of
the mo.-t successful banquets err;
given in Scott City. Several visitor?
and local men gave toasts after the
serving which were unusually nappv, ,
causing a continuous uproar. Follow
ing one of the best feeds that has ever
been put on in Scott City the men
were all feeling good and the fun they
did hav-j could not be weighed in
words. They bragged on each other
and lambasted each other, but they
were nil unanimous in the statement
that the ladies of the Civic league, had
fed them royally. Good feeling and
co-operation was the piominent feat
uie of the whole convention and Scott
City enjoyed their visit immensely."
Story of Two
Oshkosh Brothers
Just Like Movies
That two brothers could fight
through the world war as friends and
hnddips and without the slightest sus
picion on the part of either one of the
lelationship sounds rather wierd in
this day and age, but, according to an
item in the Garden County News this
fact really occured. It says:
John C. Hall, the good natured and
efficient district manager of the Platte
Valley Telephone company in this city,
is about the happiest man in this part
of the country. Tuesday his two boys,
arrived, having driven all the way
from Hoston and made the trip in just
ten days.
These two bovs. who have been
separated for several years, had join
ed the army there being but five days
iliiTeiPnce in the time or their enlist
ment, although joining different units
nf the remilar armv. They were both
sent to Germany with the Army of Oc
cupation and while stationed there had
lieen assigned to me same uhki--.
Thpv hnd met freuuentlv and convers
ed with each other but did not know
ouMi otVipi's mimes.
Aftpr John had returned to this
countrv, receiving his discharge at
the expiration of his enlistment after
v,n hml arrived in Maine, he received a
letter from his father stating that
inn unnld be discharged from the
nrmw nt Hoston on the 27th of April
and he immediately went to that city
and looked him up.
Thut was the first time that either
of them had known that they had been
together in the army in Germany and
were surprised to know each other as
brothers when they had been acquaint
ed for nearly four years as buddies.
The following day they started in the
flivver for Oshkosh, making the rec
ord time of ten days for the trip.

"Are you the feller they call von

"That's the name to which I an
swer, agreed the star-director.
Well, then you re the man I'm look
ng lor, said the oid man. I've come
down here from Monterey to see that
play of yours called 'roolish Wives,
and I can't find it at the theatres no
where. I asked some folks about il
and they said it wasn't done yet."
"That s right," agreed von Stro
heim, "it doesn't come to Los Angelet
until later perhaps some time in Jan
uary." "Ves, but I can't' wait that long it
ain't safe," replied the little man. "My
heart ain't what it used to be and I'm
goin' on eighty. I want to see that
picture."
"And why are you so interested in
'Foolish Wives'?" questioned von Stio
heim.
"Because I'm in it," declared the oh
man with a little grin. "I'm the old
feller that you stopped on the road
that day up near Curmel and told one
of your men to make up for atmos

Experts Urge An
Early Start in the
War On the Flies
In a letter characterized a3 the
"opening gun in the spring campaign
against the house fly," the depart
ment of entomology, University of
Nebraska, advises its agents that this
is the time of the year when "if you
swat one fly you will kill a million,"
and, as on the average farm "there
are at least five common species of
flies that are pests, it behooves every
one to launch the campaign early."
"The best method of keeping down
flies is to use preventive measures
and to eliminate their breeding places
known to be in deposits of filth,"
says the letter. "This can be carried
out by keeping all kitchen wastes,
garbage and other waste receptacles
closed, and spreading barnyard manure
unon the soil at frequent intervals
during the summer months.
"riy paper is an efficient method
of eradication, although poison made
up of three teaspoons of commercial
formalin to a pint of nvlk, sweetened
with a little brown sugar, is also a
pood measure. Fly traps of varied
description are fairly efficient when
properly baited and used, while over
ripe bananas cru.hed and placed in
the bait pans and ordinary fish or
meat scraps, also may be used.
"The prevailing opinion that house
flies live through the winter as adults
in cracks and crevices of buildings, is
said to be erroneous. The United
States bureau of entomology says flys
freouently pass through the winter
in the pupa and larvae state.
