ATTENTION MODERN WOODMEN
Esteemed Neighbors:
Our official paper, The Modern
Woodman tells us that the Head
Camp changed the By-laws of our or
ganization to provide for a change in
the form of policy from the present
form to the forms written by Old
Line companies and of course a
change in rates which means a raise
1 in rates to a point that almost takes
the breath of the older members that
have faithfully stood by the order
and made it what it now is.
This “adjustment” of rates as I
| understand it will be as follows at
the ages shown. Can we stand it?
Age 51. $2.85; 52, $3.00; 53, $3.15;
54, $3.30; 55, $3.45; 56, $3.60; 57,
$3.80; 58, $4.00; 59, $4.25; 60, $4.50;
61, $4.75; 62, $5.00; 63, $5.25; 64,
$5.50; 65, $5.80;, and from 67 on, a
flat rate of $6.50 per thousand each
month.
The Camp at Beatrice has secured
an injunction preventing these rates
from being put in force July 1st, as
intended by the head camp and the
case has been taken to the Federal
court at Lincoln, and the Beatrice
camp is asking our co-operation in
behalf of all the members that are
being so unceremoniously kicked out
of the order and deprived of their
protection which they have faithful
ly paid for all these years. It seems
to me we should get together and
discuss this thoroughly and deter
mine what action we should take for
the good of all the members. See our
local camp officers or write them at
I once your ideas in this matter so
some action can be taken. John Mel
vin or W. G. Beha, O’Neill, will be
glad to hear from you on this sub
ject, which all of us are interested
in.
Yours fi*aternally,
John A. Robertson.

THE 4-H CLUB
—
Wednesday, August 14th the Ever
blooming 4-H Club met at the home
of Genevieve Evans. We opened our
meeting by singing “S-M-I-L-E.”
The roll call was answered by telling
good material for the kitchen apron.
14 were present, two were absent,
and six visitors. The minutes of the
last meeting were read by the Secre
tary, after which came the news re
port, by the Secretary. The Princess
Slip and Kitchen Apron were not ex
amined, as there were only a few
who had finished theirs. Just one
demonstration was given, as the
others were unprepared for it, but
will try to be prepared at the next
meeting, which will be held at the
home of Loela and Ethel Brokaw, on
Wednesday, August 21st. After the
lunch was served they returned
home.

OLD TIME MINSTREL
COMES TO SCREEN
A regular old-time minstrel show,
as played by a traveling company on
the road some years ago, has a prom
inent part in the Eddie Dowling star
ring production, “The Rainbow Man’’
which comes to the Royal Theatre
Sunday and Monday.
“Doc Hardy’s Minstrels” and later
“Ryan and Hardy’s Minstrels” in the
story oif "The Rainbow Man” pre
sents the characters Rainbow Ryan,
played by Eddie Dowling, and “Doc”
Hardy, played by Sam Hardy. Dow
ling is the star and Hardy is the old
time manager and interlocutor of the
troupe.
A picturesque setting is used for
the presentation of the minstrel
show as it plays a small southern
town in the story. Opening with a
parade, with the minstrel men in
their gray top hats and linen dusters
the minstrel show is put on just as
it would have been played in the
town opera house. In the minstrel
show seqnences of the picture Eddie
Dowling, accompanied by the stage
full of minstrels, the orchestra and
the banging of tambourines, sings
several of the catchy songs which
are a part of the entertainment.
James Hanley, writer of many suc
cessful song hits, wrote the melodies
used in the minstrel sequences and
elsewhere in the picture. Fred New
meyer directed the production for
Sono-Art and Louis F. Gottschalk
staged the musical ensembles and ar
rangements. It is a Paramount pic
ture.
STRENGTHENING EFFECTS
WONDERFUL, SHE STATES
“After all other medicines and
treatments had failed to help me, I
started taking Sargon and Sargon
Soft Mass Pills and my improvement
was immediate.
My usual
strength and en
ergy had left me
comp 1 e t e 1 y. I
Iwas tired and
worn out in the
day time and
couldn’t sleep
well at night. I
had very little
appetite, could
j n’t relish m y
food and prac
, tically every
j thing I ate dis
agreed with me.
'Even the slight
esi exertion tired me out completely.
Headaches made me suffer so much
at times that I simply had to give
up and go to bed.
“Almost with the beginning of the
Sargon treatment I felt better. My
appetite picked up and my strength
and energy with it. In two weeks I
was so strong and energetic I didn’t
feel like the same person. Now I eat
and enjoy my food, I never have
headaches, and I sleep well at nights
and feel rested and refreshed in the
mornings. The pills stimulated my
liver and regulated it without the
slightest nausea or bad after effects.
“The Sargon treatment is simply
wonderful and I can never say too
much for it.”—Mrs. Etna D. Mohler,
5726 Walker Avenue, Lincoln, Neb.
Chas. E. Stout, Agent.

Nutrition
NO ONE needs a mere carefully
selected choice of nutritious and
healthful foods than the young
mother. The fact that bread is
almost always included in a nur
sing mother’s diet is proof of its
*. value.'
The flour, milk, yeast and oth
er ingredients of bread supply
heat, energy and minerals in eas
ily digestible form.
Bread is an essential part of
every balanced diet along with
meat, fruit, vegetables and daiyr
and poultry products for young
and old. Bread and milk. In ead
and meat, sandwiches, bread and
butter and many other combina
tions make bread the greatest
“carrier” of these other ne«es
sary items of diet.
Our modern white bread sup
plies energy-building carbohy
drates and. made with milk and
yeast and other ingredients, pro
teins of high quality. It furnish
es many of the necessary miner
als and especially the much
needed calcium and some of the
vitamins.
All the extensive scientific ex
periments have, according to our
interpretation, proved that bread
is a valuable food.

gator's in the field of nutrition,
