(COUNTY COURT SEAL) 10-12 Pairieland Talk (Continued from page 2.) patriots are not interested in the case because the victim is an un touchable of the press and Ne braskans think if he has done something in violation of the laws of the land under which he had come to trust he should take his medicine. If innocent, let s get him out. The editors are giv ing us only their side of the pic ture which has the appearance of being largely overdone. • • • Womanly charm begins a t sweet 16. But there is something in the smile and frown, curled crimson lip at sweet 16 that says hands off! But the irresistible charm and trusting confidence of a little girl who comes to your open arms with a sweet fragrance transcends the hymeneal lure. She saw me coming a half block away, a sweet little child I did not recall seeing before. She came running to meet me, held up her little hands and exclaim ed, “See what I have!” And what did she have? A little bird whose tender pinions were not yet able to bear it aloft. She exhibited her find and chatted in childish confidence that an old gent coming along would share in her happiness. At the suggestion that she should put the bird back in its nest she said, “Okay.” and scam pered off. It was the Saviour who said it were better for him that a millstone be hanged about his neck and he be cast into the sea, than that he should offend one one these little ones. * * * Oratory, music, parades, sports, noise and some fights.

You can be proud that Ne braska has one of the lowest per capita taxes in the na tion—about 27% less than the national per capita state average! This bespeaks sound planning and good management. You can be proud, too, that your state is noted for other achievements. Nebraska tavernmen are known, far and wide, for operating clean wholesome places, . well within all legal re * quirements, and for shoul dering their share of the responsibility to build a bet ter community and state. This is a result of the brew ing industry’s educational program for retailers, now in its eleventh year.
