Ho continued the work until lila phy

but when urged by hift-frlcnds to give

The opportunity Is, before the wo-
mon' of North Platte to mako thom
solvos a force for uplift In the com
munity. It is now, tho duty of all wo
men to prepare themsolvos for tho bal
lot and go totho polls and voto. That
is no longer an opporunity. lut the
womon of North Platto have boon slow
to got into tho groat vjWomnn's Club
movement which has dono and is do
ing so much for tho country. Tho" men
are well organized for civic work
through their Chamber of Commorco
with lis hundreds of members and its
thousands of dollars of monoy. Tho

-thoy will not roach tho 100 mark this
year.- Tho Twentieth Century Club
Is tho nnmo of the woman's club which
all of tho womon should Join. Tho

Muscle Massage p Rickets. ,
As an aftermath' of undernourish
ment during tho war period, rickets
has become n common disease among
children in Germany. To stimulate
tho flabby muscles of these little pa
tients, without risking mnlformatlon
of tho softened bones, many curious
devices hnvo como Into use, nccordlng
to an Illustrated story appearing in tho
August Issuo of Popular Mcchnnlcs
magazine. In treating tho Jaw and
neck muscles, for example, the subject
is laid on nn Inclined bonrd, whtlo tho

Dear Sir:
I wish publicly to oommoud the
stand of Dr. Twlnom against Sunday
dosecratlon m oxprossod . by him in
your last issue. While it Is oxpected
that tho clorgy will attack such ovlls,
seldom do wo havo laymon who aro
courageous ouough to do so.
Tho Lord's Day is a HOLY DAY.
Holy moans "soparato, set apart
from tho common ' usago." Suroly
!golf, hasoball, llshlng, hunting, plc
.nlclng, tc. arov fnr from propor ob
isorvnnco of a holy day.
The fact that church people engage
In the abovo llstod Infractions (loos
not make thorn right: It rnthor adds
to the sorlousnoss of the offense
David's greatest sin was not murdor
nor adultery but tho fact that ho gs!ve
the onemlos of Jehovah ground to
blaspliemo his God. That is oxnetly
what thfcso cliurch-mombor-dfcsocra
tors aro doing: giving tho world
ground to point tho Anger of scorn at
tho church.ni
Wore Bomo of thoso who play Sun
day golf and base-ball to try to work
In somo of our Sunday Schools, ofton
taking caro of ,tb.o roligious lnsf
tion of their children, and loam tho
delolorloUB effocts of their actions up
on tho young, I am quite sure thoy
would think twice on tho subject.

Tho two Elton sisters, ago thirty nnd
thirty-two nnd very successful business
women, live next door to tho Smith
sisters, nbout flftj nnd llfty-two, who
aro also retired and given to the occu
patlons of crocheting and quilt pice
ing, Tho Elton sisters speak of them'
selves as "old maids," nnd tho Smith
sisters as "pesky old mulds," In order
to distinguish between tlieni. Also
they are given to much pitying of the
second-class ladles.
But tho other evening one of tho
Elton ulsters, clnil In n bungalow
apron, was out sprinkling the lawn.
As she moved around the house she
heard the Smiths In conversation.
"Yes, sister, age has It compensn
tlons," one was snylng. "Now look
at those girls next doo. They no
sooner get homo than they get Into
those uprons, so scanty that they aro
Immodest. Of course, they're Just
kids, but still"
That was enough for Miss Elton
With n rush she wu In the hrtusc.
"Oh, Grace,)" she told bur sister,
brenthlcHRly, "those Smiths nro real
nice. We've got to stop culling then)
pesky old mil Ids."
And now generously the Hltons

Is not only economical, but gives tho
best results In tho production of glass
