“To hell with the Kaiser,” is thril

While Senator Hitchcock is in Ne
braska to work against the prohibitory
amendment and to prevent the legis
lature from censuring him, the state
council of defense might call him on
the carpet for publishing those Patri

The only way to buy wheat flour

The Red Cross woman who objected
to making bandages to be used on
German prisoners of war is wrong. It
is to be regretted that the demand is
not larger.

Spring formally arrived last Thurs

Corporal Hatch’s Birthday Fittingly
Celebrated.
The celebration of a birthday anni
versary in the trenches over in France
is some event and ig observed with
fitting and solemn pomp and ceremony,
according to Corporal Ray Hatch
of the 166th Field Hospital, whose
company now has charge of one
of the base hospitals right back of the
line and which is constantly under fire
of the Germans. Corporal Hatch is a
Holt county boy, the son of Mr. and
Mrs. O. B. Hatch, of Opportunity, and
has a record as a military man, being
born in the service. That important
epoch in his life occured at Fort
Niobrara while his father was in the
regular service. Corporal Hatch is a
member of the famous Rainbow di
vision and has been in the trenches for
months. In his letters to the folks at
home, which are necessarily short, but
to the point, on account of the strict
censorship, he states that the Y. M.
C. A. and the Red Cross are about the
only friends the soldier in the trenches
now have over there and he writes from
a Y. M. C. A. hut under fire. As it
was his birthday anniversary that was
’ observed, he sp iaks or writes with
authority and encloses the original
order for observance of his birthday
issued by First Class Sergeant Rousn
of his company. /
“They sure carried this out too,” is
his notation on the proclamation,
which follows:
“Rumaigate Dept M. D.
BULLitin 23, 606.
A Proclomation.
“Whereas, in the year of our Lord
eighteen hundred and ninety-five on the
fourteenth day of February, at the
historic Fort Niobrara was born no
other than that immortal man, Cor
poral Ray Hatch.
“Whereas, it is fitting that all true
Americans should observe this great
day in the laying of the foundation
for the standard of American manhood
it is suggested that every member of
the company give Corp. Hatch 23
rousing smacks on the bosom of his
B. V. D’s.
Under my hand and seal this 14th
day of Feb., given at the smoke house
across the court.
R. R. ROUSH,
Chief O’Nutts.”

Hot Water Quick
The more water in this reser
voir the faster it heats. If too
low it heats very slowly. See
that big surface that lays flat
against the fire plate? That is
the secret of the Copper-Clad
Reservoir.
If it gets too hot, twist the
lever at the bottom and shift
away from the fire plate.
This is a good reason for buy
ing a Copper-Clad Range. No
other range but the Copper-Clad
has this shifting device—it is
patented.
There are 25 other reasons,
but the chief reason is—clad
with copper they can’t rust out.
