TALK ROMAINE SAUNDERS LINCOLN — Whether seg ments of the corona of our «un, blistering balls strayed from some distant cele t al furnace like Sirius, fragments shaken from the tail of a wandering comet, some wing ed-wonders of men or specters of the night, Netraskans h ye b'en seeing firey objects in vading the heavens. At any r; te. look out tonight on the brilliant constellations above i' you prize a show which de mands no admission price. F’fty centuries back across the sweep of time Chaldean and Hebrew shepherds gazed on the same bright groups. Abraham was asked to “Look now toward Heaven and tell the stars if thou be able to number them.” A’cturus and bic guns shone above Judean hi’ls and though moving 100 miles a second five thnu°"r,d years finds this star less than one inch from the spot where the Chaldein patrLch beheld it as a plowing om^er as no ” shown in telescopic views of the vast unknown. The s^ep h"rd astronomers on the plains of Shinar vainly sought to grasp the mysteries of that vast unkown and astronomers centu’ies later contim'e the search with powerful te’e coones. But anv clear ni«ht out on prairielaed the cel s tial ric'u”e we’l in trigue professional star gazers out there on Mt Wilson and impart admiration and a sense of reverent humility to tho-e unversed in the science of as tronomy. Citizens of L'nc^'n ex r s ed their sympathy for th"’ Cambridge Hood victims with a registered package contain ing $11,421. . . . The state treasurer paid out $79,830,197 d"rinfj the 194*-’47 biennium, not including expenditures fo fh° of June, and added to this sum the county, e't *. village, township and school expenses Nebraska taxpayers have probably doled out more than 100 million dollars diving the two vear period. . . Th°re is a gent over there behind the grev prison walls that gives the autho ities much worry. He is neither a cell breaker rabble rouser nor leader of mutiny: be has law books and a typewriter over which the b >ard of control, the warden and his deputy’, the attorney general and as sistant have be m involved n federal court proceedings. Hawk is uo for life for mur ! der and files a petition in I court periodically on behalf | of himself or other prisoners. I ... A great American insti'u tion has been reinstated on the Lincoln city hall lawn— ♦ he benches have been brought out of storage and are now daily occupied by the sup^ranuated pa*r:ots who have the answers to weighty world problems. Every town should have a supply of benches. * • • Tt is said there are some 13 million boys and girls in America’s rural schools that do not have adequate equip ment. Just what is meant by "adequate equipment” is not explained, but mayb? the la^k of it is going to give us 13 million boys and gi Is better educated for life’s exacting demands. They call it universal train ing, less fearsome than that frightening woid ‘‘conurp tion.” Pres. T uman is for it and congress seems favorable. Call it what you like, con scription of young America in peace or in war is on the way. Every lad at the age of 18 goes into military uniform and training. Old world stuff. When America becomes an other armed camp in a world of strutting armies and navies the powder keg is due to blow up if not sooner. Amer ican boys have made gocd soldiers not because of the training at the hands of pro fessionals, but because they have the heritage of the Dan iel Boones and Sam Houstons * * * Employers have caught the r breath. A a n he’s t1 e boss and reasserts the pre rogative of the gent responsi | ble for the payoff. And if you are a vet ran don’t tell him until he asks for it. A couple of bright college boys that I know of want a f.rm job — . no, not the job but the $125 per month they think they are worth to giace a place at the ample dinner table out on the farm. * * * Are you one of the 49 mil lion patriots that the income tax collector will take four billion dollars less aft.r Janu ary 1, or has the income shrunk to an extent that you will be eliminated as a poten tial contributor to Uncle Sam? But here come the miners to take what your Uncle Sam leaves. Twelve something a day for coal diggers means in creased cost in keeping the home fires burning. • • * The hollyhocks are in bloom and stand sedately adorned in gay colors amid the green of a luxuriant summer foliage. Excessive rains wrought some ruin but compensates with a load of floral beauty hung upon the rich green. • • • Cheering word comes from James C. Petrillo, czar of or ganized music, who threatens to take his musical plug-ug lies off of the radio programs. * * * The secretary general of the United Nations is a Mr. Lie. it is to be hoped that the name has no significance. Toothbrush size bristling as a mustache, heavy brow form ing an awning over dark eyes, he had come to Lincoln to ad dress graduates concerning the “Path to Peace.” but looked more the fighter than the peacemaker. A babble of tongues is heard throughout the land but maybe the best way to remain at peace with the other fellow is to keep your mouth shut. * » * The world, before the re cent slaughter, had one billion six hundred and ten million of the genus homo strutting over the globe. Of this num ber, 34.2 percent were classed as Christians while Jews, Bra hmanes, Buddhists, Moham medans, and heathen made up the other 65.8 percent. Mis siona ies will have to get busy if the picture is to be changed. * * * It could hardly be expected from one of their group, but a Lyons woman comes for ward to discount the worth of the women’s organizations and clubs. It is her consid erate judgement that these tend to destroy individual thinking, a sort of group snap shot at life or communistic thinking. * * • A few of the flat, stale and unprofitable standbys of the newspaper fraternity: It was pointed out, long-range econ omy, world security, land of the free and the home of the brave, friendly gesture, basic issues. • * • The price of men’s hats has produced a generation of bare heads.
