Much is said at the fountain
head about “taking steps” to pre
vent rising living costs. And liv
ing costs keep on soaring.
The pledge against strikes of
workers in automobile factories,
now turning out equipment for
battle, has already joined other
“scraps of paper.” And they pick
ed one of the biggest in which to
call a strike.
Laws probably must be en
forced but I would not have the
heart to summon a woman be
fore a court for exercising her
God-given right to cast a hook
and line for a fish.
■Whatever may be the need for
food rationing should not be left
either to politicians or school
teachers, but to a committee of
representative American house
wives. Let the women continue
to plan the nation’s meals.
Sheriff Duffy was out this way
last week to unite law enforce
ment efforts with those of in
dividuals to solve the why,
wherefore and who of the shoot
ing of eleven lambs in a band of
sheep belonging to Albert Lem
mers. The lambs were found bul
let pierced.
Schools in some districts had
closed prior to the inaugeration
of registering of sugar ration
books. And for the purpose of
registering these districts com
bined with district with schools
still in session. It requires a little
effort to keep sweet.
That we are here attests to the
fundamental fact that we have
been born. To get an official docu
ment to that effect is something
else again. It cost dad and moth
er fifty to a hundred when you
were born; now you can dig up
three dollars and a half to prove
it.
Following a dry period during
most of April the southwest is
being capiously watered with fre
quent rains. Bluegrass is already
over ankle deep and the prairie
has turned to summer green. Ap
ple trees are in bloom scenting
the air with a charming fragrance.
Heavy clouds obscure the sun
and mists hang in wet gloom
across the meadows. It is some
thing of a tradition that abun
dance of moisture in May assures
abundance of grass for the sea
son.
Feeling it all leads to the open
highways to human rights, pa
triots will forego a lot of tniogs
normally taken for granted and
maybe cure themselves of gout
or other physical infirmitives. We
may learn something of value
from enforced moderation. I nave
a friend who lived for more than
a year on oranges and lemons.
Competent physicians in our capi
tol city X-rayed him and sent
him home to die from cancer of
the stomach. That was more than
ten years ago. But he didn t die.
Instead he consumed guantities
of citrus fruits, like a cow goes
after cracked corn, and today is
doing his share of the world’s
work. The Creator hung man’s
first meals on the trees and the
progenators of the race attained
the age of nearly one thousand
years on that sort of grub. The
combined efforts of d o c t o rs,
dieticians and cooks have not been
able to match those results.
Snow sifted along the deserted
street, deserted save for a young
lad in bare feet and thinly clad,
who stood looking into a store
window on lower Fourth St. It
was early winter and early morn
ing—winter, as sometimes occurs,
a few weeks ahead of schedule.
When the proprietor arrived
through the morning chill to take
up the duties of another day’s
business at the store, his first
customer was not ne for financial
profit. There are opportunities
that come our way, experiences
that touch our lives, which trans
cend in other values any money
consideration. His attention, his
interest, h i s sympathy, was
drawn to the lad. “Have you no
shoes, my boy?” “No I haven’t."
‘Well you are too fine a boy to
have to go around that way. Come
on in.” This scene, this bit of
dialogue, took place between a
lad now grown to manhood and
a young man now come to the
grey twilight of more than four
score years—our old friends who
has out-weathered them all in the
ups and downs of the mercantile
business up at O’Neill, P. J. Mc
Manus. That boy left that store
that morning with two warm suits
of underwear, new clothes, new
shoes and stockings, new head
gear and a new light in his eye.
And something clicked for P. J.
that was more satisfying than a
hundred dollar sale.
Liberty; freedom; free people.
What is it? Probably as short and
accurate definition as any de
fines these terms as the privilege
to disagree. Perhaps the far-out
prairie dweller has as near full
measure of freedom as anyone.
His is not absolute. There are al
ways limitations. Having traced
with pen of eloquence the amaz
ing story of mankind from remote
ages one of our great historians
draws this remarkable conclusion:
“If history has proved—does
prove—any one thing it is this:
Man when least governed is
greatest. When his heart, his
brain, his limbs are unbound, his
straight way begins to flourish,
to triumph, to be glorious. Then,
indeed, he flings out both hands
to grasp the skyland and the
stars. . . What men want, what
they need, what they one-day
will have the courage to demand
and take, is less organic govern
ment—not more; a freer man
hood and fewer shackles; a more
cordial liberty and a more spon
taneous virtue.” But can all this
come to pass as long as men are
willing to be supervised, inspect
ed, directed and generally wet
nursed from the capitals of the
nations.
Dr. J. C. Gallagher Passes
Away At Home In Ohio
O’Neill relatives received word
last Sunday that Dr. J. C. Gal
lagher passed away at his home
at Rossford, Ohio, last Sunday
morning, after being in failing
health for several years. He was
about 65 years of age. He leaves
j to mourn his passing his wife and
'five children, besides many rel
i atives here and in St. Louis, Mo.
Dr. Gallagher was born in this
J city the son of the late Mr. and
Mrs. Michael Gallagher, pioneer
residents of this city. He was one
of a large family three of the sons

ered dangerously ill, until a few

U. S. O. Drive Opens
Next Week In County
A drive to rease $500.00 as Holt
'County’s contribution to the Unit
ed Service Organization’s War
Fund will get under way Monday,
May 11. Solicitors in all parts of
the nation will go out Monday in
an effort to raise $32,000,000.00,
which will be used for carrying
on the work of the USO in army
camps and other training centers
in this county and in the insular
possessions and foreign countries
where United States forces are
stationed. USO operates nearly
700 units, many of which are lo
cated in areas outside the United
States.
Wherever there are concentra
tions of men preparing to carry
out wartime duties, the USO finds
need of its services. In some places
there are especially designed club
houses. Temporary rented quar
ters suffice in some areas, while
a number of mobile units are pro
vided for carrying USO programs
to the men in the field. USO
brings together the services of
the Salvation Army, Y. W. C. A.,
National Catholic Community
Service, Jewish Welfare Society
and National Travelers Aid As
sociation.
Letters from Holt County men
in uniform about the USO praise
its work highly. USO is consis
tantly at the service of the boys
in uniform and is a medium
whereby people throughout the
nation can bring some comfort
and enjoyment to their sons, rela
tives and friends in the Army,
Navy or Marines.

Baseball History Of
The Long Ago
John Gunthorpe, who has own
ed the Plainview News for the
past forty years, but who lived in
Denver since heck was a pup, is
back again at the helm of the
News, pending the securing of an
other manager for his paper. In
the early nineties John ran the
News, and he made a mighty
fine paper of it and it still is,
but in 1908 he was one of the
managers of the Plainview base
ball team, and it was a good one.
Late in the fall of that year he
purchased an interest in the Den
vet baseball club of the Western
I.eague and went to Denver,
where he was secretary-treasurer
ofsthe team. The team ran into
hard sledding and John was only
with them for a few years when
he disposed of his interests there
in and came back to Plainview,
where he again took up his duties
as editor of his paper, the News.
John’s wife is a daughter of one
Holt county's earliest sheriffs,
barnabas Welton, and for that
reason we have paid particular
attention to his career in busi
ness. But now to the story, which
concerns baseball.
In his issue of the 22nd of April,
John writes what he called "in
teresting baseball history" of
games played in the early days.
In some particulars lie is right,
hut on the results he is decidedly
wrong and we would suggest that
he consult his files before he at
tempts to write ancient history,
for tne papers tell the truth. The
following is taken from his early
days account of early games:
Along towards fall of that year
the Sterlings went to O’Neill one
Sunday and won a fine game by a
score of 2 to 0, which went ten
innings. This victory sort of riled
the Irish of that city and they
! were itching for revenge. On the
following Friday they came to
Plainview with seven members of
the Omaha Western League team,
1 which had just finished the sea
son, and but two of the regular
O’Neill team. Well, to make a
} long story short, Dunaway pitch
ed for Plainview and let the vis
itors down without a single hit
and only permitted one runner to
reach second base. This was Perry
Dunaway’s greatest feat of his en
tire career, which was marked
by many other brilliant perform
ances for other teams throughout
northeast Nebraska.
We would like to call John s
'attention to the fact that the first
| game that he mentions herein
was played in O’Neill on Sunday,
August 10, 1908, and instead of
the score being 2 to 0 in favor of
Plainview it was 4 to 3 in favor of
O’Neill and only lasted nine
innings. This was the first game
that O’Neill played that year.
(See copy of The Frontier issue of
August 13, 1908.) We have the
files in the office John if you care
| to look them over. Primley was
I in the box for O’Neill and King
(for Plainview and is was a real
game all the way through.
Wilson c.; Twitchell, 3b.; Mur
phy, lb.; Brophy, 2b.; Englehaupt,
If.; DeSilva, rf; Promley, p; Big
lin ss.; Hammond, cf.
On Wednesday, August 12, the
O’Neill team went to Plainview
for a return game and it was a
hummer. The editor of The
Frontier was the manager of the
O’Neill team at that tirpe and he
was, naturally, present at the
game. Engelhaupt wds on the
mound for O’Neill and Perry
Dunaway for Plainview.
In that game, and the only one
played by O’Neill for several
years, we were shut out without a
hit. It was a swell game, but Perry
had miraculous support in his
shut out victory. Frank Tepner
played center field for Plainview
and made 3 miraculous catches,
that prevented six runs from
scoring, or the story would have
been different. But they won and
they were entitled to, for Dun
away pitched a fine game. Fol
lowing is the account of this
game, as written by the writer, on
his return from Plainview after
the game:
O Neill 0. Plamview 5.
“The above score is the result
of the second game between
O’Neill and Plainview on the
Plainview diamond yesterday af
ternoon. Perry Dunaway was on
the rubber for Plainview and he
did not allow the O’Neill boys a
hit during the nine innings, be
ing the first time in the history
of the game here that a team
wearing an O’Neill uniform was
let down without a hit. Talk
about a rabbit’s foot, Perry must
have had one in each pocket and
a dozen or so around his neck,
for he certainly pitched the luck
iest game of his life. He had no
speed, just “lobbed” them over,
sailing them to the plate looking
as big as a bushel basket and
.when an O’Neill slugger connect
ed with the horse-hide they drove
it into the yawning paws of a
Flainview fielder. Their fielders
had few hard chances, everything
that was batted was sent right to
them, the errors charged against
them being wild throws to first
on easy fielding chances, but they
were not co6tly.
“Engclhaupt was on the mound
for O’Neill. While he held them to
five hits he was wilder than a
December Jack Rabbit and gave
free transportation to seven and
hit one and these counted in the
scoring.
“Johnny says we had several
members of the Omaha Western
League team with us in this game
as the league had closed its sea
son. As this game was played on
August 12 and the Western Lea
gue season did not close until
the latter part of September, you
can readily see that John was
off again.”
The following is the O’Neill
line-up in that game and it will
be seen that it is about the same
as appeared in the first game
with Plainview.

ers, rf; Primley, If; Brophy, 2b;
