PHONE 16 O’NEILL Wait for Me, I'm Running, Too Prairieland Talk — Insects and Butterflies from 4 Corners of World Impress State Fair Visitor By ROMAINE SAUNDERS LINCOLN —The largest ex hibit at the state fair were the automobiles parked everywhere —and the milling crowds of hu manity—and Nebraskans in the mass are a pretty swell looking outfit when they get out on hol iday pleasure bent. But those fellows and gals on horses in dude riding togs would make the real punchers from the rang e s snort in dis g u s t. Cattle barns, horse barns with an unusual show ing of fine nags, and the fish exhibit drew the crowds. Swine pens were not Romaine very popular, Saunders maybe be cause of the odor. One of the most remarkable exhibits was the vast collec tion of insects and butterflies from all quarters of the earth. No artist can approach the beauty and combination of colors with which nature has adorned the butterflies from South America, from India, from Africa and the Pacific islands. Band musicians in gay uni forms, barkers urging you to loosen up a dime’s worth and step into their den to see an an imal monstrousity, exhibits of earth’s products, handicrafts, machines and inventions—a ver itable school of information worth a day’s tramping the grounds over. Or, if you are in terested in speed demons, you will get it up in the grandstand. • • • Republicans swung into action in slate convention in Hastings Saturday, September y, with Governor Peterson, the 4 con gressmen and state committee men and committeewomen grac ing the gathering. Democrats anu GOP’s are otr to a good start and probably the Novem ber fimsn will not bring much if any changes in our official alignment. It may be said today that political rivals no longer re gard each other as rascals as was formerly the custom in waging a campaign for elec tion. We are all gentlemen and la dies now whether or not we would be any good as a public officer. The advantage now is that most of the GOP candidates have records to commend or condemn them. * * * The high quality of food pro ducts grown in Nebraska is rec ognized by visitors to the state. Our own citizens have long been aware of the superior quality of the homegrown foods over that brought in irom other states. Calitornia friends, as well as those from elsewhere, like to stop in Nebraska for a good grass-grown beefsteak, a rich red ripe tomato, a baked potato, golden-leaf lettuce and other products of gardens and fields. After you have cut a melon brought here from Texas go up to the Elkhorn valley and stop in the country south of Norfolk and get a feed of melons that far surpasses in quality those imported from the cotton belt. And if you like a good apple go down about Nebraska City. Anywhere in Nebraska can be found choice food products. The doors of 75-thousand 1 room schools open again to ad mit 1 ^-million boys and girls of rural America. From these 1 room schools have been coming year by year a group that steps into the affairs of life to become our most worthy citizens, whe ther they go on into the higher realms of learning or enter into life’s work with a background of j 8 grades of schooling. The train- j mg the schools and universities give may well be sought after j but many of the go-getters in life’s struggles had but limited formal education. * * • "1 sincerely regret," says Mr. Truman. That's some thing! Cool-headed judgment not hot-headed temper should direct the outflow from the White House. The marines seem disposed to accept the apology but the outburst of the president leaves a bad taste with fathers and moth ers on whose boys the stigma has been cast. * * • Walter Raecke of Central Ci ty, Democrat and candidate for the job of governor of Nebras ka, started the political machin ery in motion at a recent gath ering of party members at Hast ings, which has become the cen ter of such activitiy. With the characteristic optimism of the politician, Mr. Raecke launches out hopefully. Nebraskans have 2 clean, capable men to select from as their choice for the of fice of chief executive. Governor Peterson has a record that com mends him to all citizens with (Continued on page 3.) Highway 281 Meet At Pratt, Kans.— A meeting of the national U. S.
