Over the County
^SOUTHWEST BREEZES
By Romaine Saunders
Mrs. Frank Williamson and two
little boys visited Friday afternoon
with Mrs. Saunders.
John Bower and his good Sheperd
dog brought up a bunch of cattle
Sunday from the pasture down by
the lake and moved them to the
j ranch without incident.
Mr. and Mrs. Earl Doolittle were
over from their home near Amelia
Thursday and partook of fried
chicken dinner at the Bernard
Kennedy home.
A divorced dame worries as to
how she will get along on $750 a
month alimony. I know of several
ladies who would be glad to show it
can be done.
Ned Saunders and brother-in-law,
Harold Eno, and Rolland Hart
came up from Lincoln last Friday
and visited here until Sunday after
noon.
One of the larger and one of the
smaller church groups take iden
tical positions with inspect to their
missionaries in countries where
war rages. A Catholic bishop in
America says they are not asking
nor do they expect this government
to protect their missionaries in
China. They are there on their
own responsibility and feel it is
their duty to stay with their work.
Seventh-Day Adventists somewhat
earlier pronounced this same prin
ciple when their property and mis
sionaries were placed in danger in
^ Ethiopia. This latter group had
much to de also with the recent
ruling at Geneva on the so-called
calendar reform, the League Coun
cil finding it is not possible to
accept the blank day calendar, the
adoption of which would destroy
the weekly cycle. So the Gregorian
calendar continues to be our meas
urement of time.

Three Omaha womn applied to
the Douglas county relief agent and
were told there was no more direct
relief being given to those able to
work, but were offered jobs as
domestics. The various responses
were, as quoted by a World-Herald
reporter, “I’ll not do housework,”
“It’s not in my line,” “You want to
lower us.” Is this what the great
program launched at Washington
to save the nation brought our
people to?
It fascinated the eye. Little more
than a speck on the ground but with
a sleek and shining polish that
suggested the pink radiance of a
pearl gleaming in the sunlight.
One of those rare spectacles that
captivates and holds the gaze like
the Oriental fakir with his hooded
cobra. The charm was broken when
the neighbor with whom I’d been
talking moved on and realization
dawned that ajp^ve loft stuck from
a hole in one of his shoes.
To hand over a resignation from
a soft berth like any of the federal
courts is expecting a good deal
from any man.

Mrs. F. P. Hunter, who has been

It has been thirty-six years since
Jimmie left here, and he says he
notices many changes in the coun
try, mostly for the better. So many
places are built up ana are quite
nice farm homes now, the land
tilled and raising crops where years
ago it seemed worthless except for
grazing. He noticed such a dif
ference in the trees also. Where
old groves stood before, many of
the trees are gone but new groves
have grown in other places that
off-set the lost ones, but change
the appearance greatly.
He noticed a vast difference in
roads also, as all are on section
lines now, no angles, and many
graded and improved.
Jimmie looks fine and seemed
glad to met his old friends and
school mates again. Mrs. Miller is
a southern lady and very nice.
Mrs. George Wilson and Mrs.
Hill of Deep River, Iowa, are visit
ing in the Redbird neighborhood.
Mrs. Wilson is an aunt of Mrs. John
Carson and Mrs. Hill a cousin. Mrs.
Hill celebrated her eighty-second
birthday Oct. 2, and not many of
the young ladies of her age can
boast of celebrating as she did.
She, with three others in the
car, left Carson’s in the early morn
ing, drove to O’Neill and did a
little shopping, went to Duane
Carson’s at Chambers for dinner,
then to John Young’s at Inman for
supper, back to O’Neill for the
show in the evening, not arriving
at the John Carson home until
about 2 o’clock in the morning, but
the next morning she was up as
spry and nimble as the rest and
ready for Sunday school at 10:30.
She is well and has not only been
visit.ng here but at Gordon, Nebr.,
and other places enroute.
She doesn’t look to be nearly as
old as she is, and seems good for
100 years, and we hope she may
live that long and enjoy them all.

It is said that women have no
sense of humor. Well, if you look
over the married ones and see how
many jokes they have taken, you
won’t believe this.
We have never practiced ancestor
worship in this country like the
Chinese practice it, but just wait
’til the old age pensions get to
functioning.
They used to say “the woman
always pays,’’ but now they have
changed it to “the government al
