I PRAIRIELAND «&». f I JL SAUNDERS } ! nr AT T^ atkinson ... 1 Route 5 LINCOLN — With three strikes called last week, the capital city had all the thrill of a great industrial center. Bus drivers of the Lincoln City Lines, identified with some sort of a labor union, went on strike and the president of the organization assumed an arrogant if not insulting atti tude toward the company manager in negotiations for arbitration. Eleven hundred of the fourteen hundred car rying on the work of the West ern Electric, formed picket lines in which occasionally was seen a gent carrying a banner that put him down as not much affected by the strike trying to capitalize on his army service. Lincoln has automatic telphones and local service was not much affected by the strike of telphone workers. Most places of business reported full forces at work the first day of the bus strike, clerks and fac tory workers getting to their jobs by the helpful spirit of motorists that comes to the re cue at such a time. The cour ageous souls in the picket lines were bedraggled and dripping from the incessant rains. * * * It w<as August, 1941, aboard ship off the coast of Newfound land, Churchill and the late Roosevelt brought out a thing called the Atlantic charter. And there was the Malta con ference, the San Francisco ga thering of notables butressed by a cargo of colorless stuff they call vodka and the amber native fluids; adjournments from one world center to an other and a few now talking it over in Moscow. And what? National, emotional and funda mental differences that forever erect barriers against common unity of mankind. • • • The defeat again of the re tirement proposal for city em ployees in the capital city em phasizes the temper of taxpay ers with respect to voting them selves any additional tax bur den. Our fathers paddled their own way to the end of life’s trail. Many groups now im plore for a “retirement” pen sion which must come somehow from public funds. The social security act, of which Lloyd George of England wa^ thn in stigator, provides insur nee payments not from the public funds but from a trust fund created by capital and labor, yet administered from Wash ington. • * • A series of prolonged strikes gives Milwaukee something else to make the old town famous.

R. H. "RAY" SHRINER Phone 106 — O’Neill Predictions of rainless and grasshopper - plagued season. Then c me Ap: il spraying dai’y showers from hourly overcast skies. Water-soaked soil holds a promise of fruits of the field. Does it in April? April, 1947, is a duplicate to date of April, 1894. Rain every day. Came July, 1894, hot winds blew out of Kansas across the Nebraska prairiel-nd, withering field and meadow to a hopeless yellow. Weather and land history, wasting wind and hot breath repeats its appointed functions. * • * Our Methodist friends report the addition of one and three quarters million to their mem bership as the fruits of a recent crusade. After a discouraging period for the churches, this seems to be a day that human ity turns to the clergy for the help statesmen have tried in vain to provide. Uncle Sam dickers for placing foreign loans but the church people of Yankeeland ere sending the bread and blankets. * * * * It doth appear that Arbor day is on the way out. The de mand no longer is woodman, spare that tree. The trees our fathers set out and culti vated with care are now fall ing victims to the demands of the times. * * * There are more people or Irish ancestry in the United States than there are in Ireland, but the 5,599,000 who came here were not so much interested in getting away from Ireland as they were to detach themselves from Great Britain. * * • If The Frontier proof reader would become familiar with Holy Writ where to use and where not to use quotation marks when printing lines from this source would be correctly settled. • • • The legislature has before it a full time assessor bill with complications that will make for confusion and help nobody. * * * Something like 200 4-H club leaders are doing the stste col lege of agriculture. Lyle Ab- 0 ney, of Ewing, drew a shot from the camera with a small group of club members. * * * There was a time a suit of clothes could be bought for $'0, which was the sum total of a week’s earnings. A $50 suit today is the sum total of a week's earnings. Who wins? * * * Bull fights are out in Japan by order of Gen. McArthur. Maybe Nipons’ propencity to fight should have outlet with a bull rather than with the neigh bors. * • » Mr. and Mrs. Roblyer and Charles Clark, from “up home," spent a few days with friends in Lincoln last week. Charles was out buying c:lves to take * to the ranch south of Chambers. Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Spry and family spent Sunday at the Larry Tenborg home in Emmet.
