The editor nosed out tho story of tho
Home DIsponsary without the know
lodge of tho men who aro promoting
It and wo arc glad to print In our news
column tho account of tho project as
wo aro sure It will ho a big thing for
North Platte. If tho business interests
will glvo such industries the llttlo
hooat thoy can glvo them on occasions
thoy will grow into big Interests In
time and promoto tho prosperity which
wo aro aftor.
Tho Drown boy said ho was a son J
of Brown and Brown. Ho meant It as
a Joke hut tho truth of tho matter was
that ho was as much a sou of Mr.
Brown as of Mrs. Brown. Aro tho Dads
letting tho boys and girls docido what
studios thoy will tako In High School
with only tho mothers to adviso them?
Are tho mothers kcoping In touch with
thoir children's tcachors In High
School so thoy can anticipate any fric
tion or troublo before it looms big?
Wo hnd bettor think over theso things
now and net ns wo know wo should.
Wo wcro struck by tho tltlo of an
article wo saw in tho last Sunday's
State Journal. It was "Lottors of a
Home Made Boy to his Father." Could
your boy and my hoy wrlto thoso lot
tors Or aro wo so busy with our
lodgos and our clubs and our social
affairs that wo do not havo homo made
children but intrust them to tho
school and tho church und tho movie
and tho street? Now, at tho oponlng of
the school term, is a good time for us
parents to start In bolng at homo with
the hoys and girls on school nights.

A Column of Nonsense.
Tho othor day when we were gdlng
over to got tho correct time from the
clock in tho Court House tower,
friend of ours stopped us and aaked us
why somo people call their children
by two names in front of the last ono.
Wo did not know o we thought wo
would go over and ask Ed Davis. Ed
wag busy so wo did not wait for him
to ask us in but we went right In and
mado oursolvos at homo. Whon Ed was
through with tho other thing he was
doing wo nskod him. IIo said thoy did
It becauso thoy had always done it and
wo said wo didn't believe 'that was a
vory good reason so we called up Ed's
East End Friend and nskod him. to
como ovor as soon n he could. Ho
said he would and thon Ed said back
In Indiana whoro ho grew up, ho know
a girl who was called Mary Ann. We
told him wo hnd hoard of that girl
and wo asked him If he was suro ho
grow up In Indiana and ho said yes
was suro arid wo Just coughed n
little and asked Ed to tell us about
Mary Ann but ho didn't seem to hoar
so wo told him about a girl they called
Sarah Jano when wo were a child.
Then wo told him wo liked to hear
children called Mary Ann and Sarah
Jano but wo wero a llttlo afraid to
hoar them called Rebecca Lucrotla or
Margucrlto Madollno for fear they
would not llvo long and Ed asked if
tho Dads called them by two names
ns well as tho mothers and wo said
wo novor know of them doing it but
ouco and that was when a woman
called her son Thomas Jofferson be
foro his last namo and tho Dad call
edl him Bill. Ed said that was notwhat
ho meant and wo said wo did not
know what ho meant but wo thought
all children should havo at least two
names boforo their last ono and that
wo felt Borry for any Dad or mother
who would glvo their son two names
and thon only call tho boy by ono of
thoy becauso they were ashamed of
tho othor. Ed asked us to mention
names but wo told him not much and
ho said "I suposo noi" and wo got
mad and Ed got mad and Just then
Ed's East End Friend came but wo
wont out and slammed tho door. So
now wo know.

Editbr Tribune:
In regard to those artclles that the
business nien are running in Tho
Tribune anent the needs of our rapidly
growing city, we all appreciate tho
fact that theso sentiments are correct
and also timely and we like to see
mon have tho courage to como right
out and put their names at tho bot
tom of tlies articles hut it in Just pos
sible that, In the minds of somo rather
hardhoarted and hard-working mort
nls tho vulgar thought may havo seep
ed in that these same names, attached
to the bottom of a bit of bankable
paper payable to James Sebastian,
Trustee, would at this particular tlmo
carry a lot more weight than mere
generalities and advice to tho public.
No one should detract In tho least
from the sentiment of those able artic
les. If North Platto Is to grow It Is
up to those of our cltlzona who are
financially able t6 do so to build bus
iness blocks and apartmont houses. A
campaign toward this end carried out
through tho winter will get this sen
timent organized Into someting con
crete by spring and next year wo will
got results. This Is no donation prop
osition. Buildings here will pay and
jay big.
In tho meantime let theso moneyed
men of North Platto got behind tho
necessary movements that havo to be
met with cash to keep this town before
tho people of tho world and to keep
tho growtir coming this way. Let
them get behind, this airfiold proposi
tion. It is the opinion of more than
ninety-five porcent of the ipeoplo of
North Platto that it is host to go ahead
and fix up this landing field. Tho five
porcent loft aro moneyed men who
hato to part with their money and so
thoy put up a mass of peurlle argument
to get rid of the commlttoo of solici
tors. Soliciting committees for public
Improvement funds nro always com
posed of busy men. They aro men
who dislike from the bottom of their
hearts the job of soliciting; men who
can 111 afford to leave their own- busi
ness to dovoto the time to these drives
and besides that they aro. usually the
mon who back municipal affairs with
real money. Some of tho moneyed
mon of North Platto, men who havo
made It all here and owe n debt to
tho community that they never can
repay, dearly lovo to turn down those
committees. They love North Platte
and they want her to grow and .pros
per at someone olses oxpenso and to
their own personal profit. It might
holp to some extent If the peoplo of
North Platto would fnako note of tho
business firms who act for tho good of
tho town and thoso who do not and
guldo their business Into channels
which will lead to a bigger and better
city.
Tho writer of this letter would he
embarrassed by too much publicity
and will hide behind a somewhat hack
neyed signature but suffice It to say
that his namo Is on a fairly sizeable
chock payable to James Sebastian,
Trustee, and no ono had to solicit him
,for It.
Sincerely yours,
PRO BONO PUBLICO.
