DO THEY REALLY? Blackie Knew Her Job My black and white alley cat had kittens last week.. From past experience I knew better than to try to move one of them —for the last time I did that she meowed all over the house till she .found them and then proceeded J to carry each one back to the place ctf its birth. The natural instinct of mother-1 hood is developed rather highly | in Blackie. She seems to take a positive prie in caring for her. | kittens, and shows signs of pleas ure when a stranger looks them over. She knows that the school of life is a hard one—especially, for alley cats, and she does her ! best to cuff what knowledge she has of it into her kittens. Blackie’s best friend is my mother. The reason for this is obvious. My mother has a large family and she appreciates the difficulty olt feeding and raising one. I have often spoken to her about it, and she always remark ed that while it was difficult, it has its compensations. All parents have a natural in stinct to nurture and protect . their young. They have also the . right to do so. When I tried to Big Auction MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 11 at 10:00 A. M. . Hinshilwood Ranch Rock County, Nebr.

NEBRASKA REALTY AUCTION COMPANY. Agents Established 1912 — Central City, Nebr. A. J. Hinshilwood, Owner and Operator I I interfere with Blackie’s way of caring for her kittens, she proper ly put me in my place. She in formed me by her actions that she had the right to care for her own offspring. Just as Blackie can take care of her young much better than I, so also can the normal mother and father take care of their baby in a much better way than a stranger or an institution. They alone can give the child the aff ection upon which it thrives, and which it could receive in no other place. There is nothing which can take the place of this indi vidual attention. No institution has been built, no system has been perfected which will be to a child what a normal mother and father can be. Since nature has given the right to the parents it can not be taken away from them. Since nature has given them the power, and since there is no other agency devised, by man which can do the job as well as they, ought not the job of caring for the children be left to them? If they fail in their duty—then but only then—others must take up the task and complete it as best they can. We will gladly answer any question concerning the Catholic Church if you will write to: Catholic Information Society, 7800 Kenrick Road, St Louis, Mo. GOOD PLANS—BUT Various tax plans have been proposed in an effort to establish a Federal taxing system which would insure adequate govern mental revenue and at the same time encourage the productivity of industries and indivduals. A1 of these plans have a com mon characteristic. They have been evolved by the best brains in the country and are construct ive efforts to bring the monstrous problem of Federal taxation un der control before it destroys the very freedom for which American men are fighting in every comer of the world. But—and there is a very large but—no plan will work unless the politicians and the people sincerely wish it to work. The old battle of class tax ation, with group pitted against group, each seeking to unload, taxes onto the other fellow, if continued, will block any sane tax plan. Dr. George Stevens, of Sioux Falls, S. D., spent the week-end here visiting old time tfrinds. Leo Mullen returned Monday from Omaha, where he had spent the past week visiting relatives and friends.

AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY AND COMPENSATION INSURANCE WRITTEN Surety and Court Bond Furnished Notary Public THE OLD JUDGE SAYS... jm ■ * 0 The more / read about it, Judge, the more / realize the tactics and requirements of this war are as different from the one 1 fought in 2$ years ago as night is from day", "Yes, and I can give yap an example of how true that is, Fred. In World War I the chief uses of alcohol produced for war pur poses were found in smokeless powder, medi cal supplies and chemical warfare materials. In this war the need for this product is far more vital because it is also used as a fuel to propel torpedoes, to make shatterproof glass for airplane windshields and instrument cov ers, to make lacquers used in camouflaging equipment and as a base for synthetic rubber needed for tires, gas masks, paratroop equip !v ment and dozens of other things. “Every time I think of it, Fred, I realize how fortunate we were in having a beverage distilling industry in existence when war broke out... ready and eager to convert 100% to the production of this critically needed war product I’m mighty sure boot leggers wouldn’t have been of much help.” This advsrUssmml tpontottd by Confsrtmt oj Altoholu Bmttaf Industries, Ins.
