    SOUTHWESTERN
BREEZES
By Romaine Saunders
Mrs. Gargaliski—I do not guar
rantet the spelling—and son Gor
don, former residents of Swan
Lake but now of Washington state,
have been visiting relatives, the
Thompson’s and Watson’s, here.
Joined by their relatives they en
joyed a picnic at a Burwell park
Sunday. r' 'Y'
Mrs. Louise Larson and son.
Roger, of Boone county, were
recent guests of Mrs. Fannie Riley
and Mr. and Mrs. Tom Baker.
Since returning to their Boone
county home they send word that
another son, Raymond, received a
sickening injury when jabbed in
the back with a pitchfork when he
fell from a straw stack.
Irrigation on the Loup has met
with disaster again, the dam at
Burwell giving way and letting
loose the flood of waters. Frank
Pierce of Amelia, had the precar
ious distinction of standing on the
dam looking on as it broke but was
not swept away by the attend
ant rush of water,
- — '
I have heard of no record
breakiing yields of barley, rye or
•oats in this community. Barley, of
good quality, threshed out 40
bushels to the acre, oats from 10
to 60 and rfy from 17 to 20. We
have neither super men nor abnor
mal products of the ground, but the
southwest continues year aftes
year a reliable and trustworthy
spot for the prairie dweller.
Herr Hitler decorates another
herb. Invasion of peaceful sections
of earth, piling the dead and
mangled bodies of children and
adults in heaps, burning, blasting
wrecking, wrenching from the
helpless all that life holds dear
and filling the land with lamenta
tion and woe—that is the work of
Hitler’s heros, of Nippon’s heros.
Fiends of Hell—gloating over the
countless victims whose quivering
flesh, torn to bits in an agony sc
great nerves no longer function;
limbs blown from human bodies;
jagged and bleeding stumps of an
arm or leg all that i§ left to he pul
sating form of a child; homes
families—all that life has to give
to the inhabitants of the earth
wiped away by a devastating
scourge. And little by little our
beloved country draws nearer this
vortex of horrors.
It was a warm August morning.
John McDonough, editor of the
O’Neill Tribune, always a late
riser, still lay asleep in the con
traption he called a folding bed
opened on the floor by his editorial
des kin the room under the First
National bank where there has
been a newspaper plant since the
hank wa3 built in ’85. Gus Han
lan, manager of a lumber yard lo
cated just east of whtre the Golden
Hotel now stands, and also full of
deviltry, filled a pail with water at
the pump in front of Hagerty’s
store and with a sort of fiendish
glee ran down to The Tribune
ttffite and before the printers at
work at the cases were aware of
his presence doused the cold water
f on the shnhbering editor. What
the rudily aroused John said he
did not deem fjt to print, so the
ne^ issue of The Tribune ignored
the incident.
When Abraham interceded with
wiith the messengers of destruction
he had the promise that if old
Sodom could muster ten decent
cititzens the town would be spared.
But he found only four. I had be
gun to fear that O’Neill was on
the downward sodom road, but now
learn through a letter from a
friend of religious worship that
the house of prayer has not been
abandoned for the house of pleas
ure up at the county seat. Hfc
writes to correct a misapprehen
sion which got into a paragraph
iin this department in a recent
issue, assuring me that they have
a group that continue “real live
church service every Sunday night
at the chapel on Fifth street.”
I do not know what school of theo
logy this group represents, but it
tit is not so important as the fact
that in these days of mingled world
horrors and pleasures there are
some who still feel the importance
■ of getting on their knees. The
chapel of this body of worshippers
stands as a shrine on ground where |

Good Grain Yields In •
Western Part of County
Threshing has only begun in this
area, but already the yields are
proving to be all that had been
expected. Crop conditions have
been more favorable here this year
than for several years and every
where the grain crop was accord
ingly good.
On the Ramm home place direct
ly west of Stuart a 22 acre field of
oats yielded slightly better than
84 bushels per acre.
On the Weber place south and
west of town A. J. Til Ice reports
an average yield of 35 bushels per
acre in his. 120 acre rye field.
Clem Alberding north of Stuart
reports that 32 acres of oats on his
farm yielded 1400 bushels, while
both rye and barley were very good.
With a bumper hay crop already
partly harvested, a record blue
grass crop a reality and the small
grain harvest the largest in years,
this area is one of the garden spots
of the state.—Stuart Advocate.

Heavy Receipts and Brisk
Bidding Livens O’Neill
Local Sales Pavilion
A red hot market at the local live
stock auction last Monday showed
fully steady to stronger prices ort
all classes. Brisk action prevail
ed throughout and the increased
receipts were readily absorbed
With the demand for cattle becom
ing more urgent each week, the
supplits found ready outlet and
buyers were eager for more stock.
Steer calves netted an extreme
top of $11.05 with the long end
paying $10.75 to $11.50. The run
on heifer calves was light and prices
were fully steady with a week ago.
Light yearlings reached a top
of $1 i 05 with $10.50 to $11.50
claiming the bulk of the day’s offer
ing. A spriinkling of short two year
old steers paid $10.00.
A good supply of sows was here
and the best kind brought $8.50.
How ever $7.50 to $8.25 caught
the most of the cow offering. Bulls
were more plentiful than in recent
weeks and sold mpstly from $7.50
to $8.00. - * - -
Hog receipts fell off some this
week, but prices soared. Butchers
pushed upwards to $10.85 with a
practical top of $10.70 to $10.75
Sows cashed at $9.70. Pigs paid
$15.00 again this week to* match
last week’s high.
A few sheep were here, too few
to test the market and establish
quotable prices.
A few houses completed the day’s
Offering,
The next regular sale will be

One of the most decisive and in
teresting seftball games of the
season was played last Friday nite
The All-Stars took a powerful lead
on the pitching of Rudy Valla, col
lecting U rums in the first 5 inngs
The game went on until it was get
ing almost too dark to see. It was
the last of the 7th inning and the
K. C’s. trailed the AU-Sars by only
| one run 20 to 19. It was a very ex
! citing game, especially in the last
| inning when a K C player fanned
out retiring the side, with the bases
| losded. This game put the All
S Stars in the league’s top position.

TRI STATE LOSES 2 GAMES
Last Monday night the Brown
McDonald team having last place
in the City Soft Ball League de
feated the highly favored Tri State
j club 12 to 10 in one of the best
; games played this season. The up
set was a surprise to everyone and
pulled the delated team down from
j first place in the league standing.
Tuesday night the Tri State was
again throughly spanked by the
Knights of Columbus outfit, this
time the count being 7 to 11. For
the first two innings the contest
looked like a tight battle, but
after the third, the K of C boys
had matters pretty well under con
trol and from then on their was
no doubt who was going to win.
Oustanding players for the win
ners were DeVore, Ricter and Kub
itschek all doing excellent fielding.
Fer the losers the entire gang was
pretty ragged, which can be easily
seen by the eight errors made.

O’Neill Will Share In
Spending Of Federal
Road Money
State Engineer Scott said Tues
day that $2,489,195 in federal funds
had been allocated to Nebraska
for the improving of strategic
highways needed in the national
defense program and that the
state would be required to put up
$830,000 as its share. Scott said
the national defense road bill had
passed congress and was ready fot
the president’s signature.
As passed, the bill provides foT
& total appropriation of $320,000.
000. Of this $150,000,000 is for
access roads, $25,000 for emer
gency construction, $10,000,000 for
plans and surveys and $10,000,000
for flight strips, 400 of which arq
to be constructed in the nation.
Scott explained that flight strips
amounted to the same as landing
fields.
Scott said that construction on
strategic highways would he pah!
'■ for on the basis of 75 percent of
1 federal funds And 25 percent state
funds hut that the government
I would pay the entire cost of ae
I cess roads. Strategic roads as
i designated in Nebraska are 30S
from Omaha to Clarks and 30 west
td the state line, and U. S. 81
from the Kansas state line to Nor
folk, 275 from Norfolk to O’Neill
and 281 from O’Neill to the South
Dakota state line. U. S. 75 south
from Omaha to the state line has
also been given such designation.
It was estimated by Scott that
the state could raise the $830,000
as its share for improving strate
! gic highways if it had a year's
| time to do it.

One Creighton Business
Man Is A Live One
.
The last week’s issue of the Cre
ighton News carried an advertise
ment from one of their enterpris
ing business men 4a follows: “Buy
Your Coal From Us Today.” The
present low pricetf‘^coupled with the
predicted ear shortage, are ample
justification for acting immediately.
It is touglv to have to think of coal
when the thermometer is 103 in the
shade, but that coal firm is right
on their toes and, no doubt, will be
amply repaid by the response to

O’Neill Donates Over 500
Pounds Of Aluminum
A fine cooperative spirit was
shown in O'Neill last Saturday
when the O’Neill Commercial Club
with the assistance of the band
members canvassed the town for
scrap aluminum. Over 500 pounds

placed into defense production as
needed. All aluminum will be de
livered to the smelters at the maxi
mum prices prescribed by the office
