July with the H-bomb, which is pre dicted to be a world killer' Sta lin is now a decrepit old man on his way out and younger men more despotic will take over. It is stated, too, that an element coming up among the Russians will oust the red crow'd and avert war if the Western powers will give the help and encouragement this element needs. The lesson of history is that Godless Stalinism cannot endure. • * • Ladies have developed a talent for garden work, which brings them out into the open in contact with growing things. How about placing one of our competent and charming sis ter* in as secretary of agricul ture? If I were in the white house, which I will not be, there would be more women in responsible positions to im prove efficiency and raise the moral tone. * * * Potatoes at 10 cents and apples , at 25 cents the pound, that gent known as “price stabilizer” is due for the treatment sometimes accorded the umpire. Other things present a picture fa vorable for the rumblings of discontent. Requiring the ser vices of a barber, I went into a place where the chairs for the moment were empty. Now most fellows have a barber they go to more or less regularly, but this was one of those occasions when I dropped into a stranger’s ton sorial parlor. The barber shop has the reputation of being a place where you get an ear full. This particular spot I had blun dered into was operated by a hardboiled amazon who seemed to be the only “sister of the shears” on the job. When parked for the operation another fellow came in for a similar purpose. Then the process of getting an “ear full” began. That woman barber into whose hands I had committed myself proved to be a pastmaster at profanity and in vective as well as a good barber Between her and the customer who was “next” a lot of things in the present day picture were verbally torn to shreds. * * * The scholar is quite the guy these days. The ancients didn’t think so much of them. The barci who was said to have gone in search of “length of days and depths of wine,” thus describes the educated gent of an earlier century: A scholar lives on yonder hill, His clothes are rarely whole to view, Nine times a month he eats his fill, Once in ten years his hat is new; A wretched lot! and yet the while He ever wears a sunny smile. The Greeks and Trojans were I better scrappers than poets, but a Greek with a heart gave us this: Enough of Trojans to this lance shall yield In the full harvest of yon ample field— Enough of Greeks shall dye thy spear with gore. But thou and Diomed be foes no more. * * * The Frontier scribe ran onto them bellied up to a lunch count er at the bus station at Fifth and Douglas streets. Paul and Luther Shanner, in O’Neill last Satur day, have just returned to their frist love after a number of years in Arkansas, and are now ar ranging to get settled with their herd of purebred Guernsey cattle on their farm in the thrifty Page community. It is the farm that was the homestead of their par ents, the late Mr. and Mrs. James Shanner, and there they grew up as boys. They have been operat ing a dairy farm in Arkansas but have disposed of their interests in that state and will again be permanent citizens of Holt coun ty. • » • The operator of a large crop growing area down toward the Kansas border tells me that of late May winter wheat promises a heavy yield, oats do not look so good and corn just showing up. That is pretty well the picture in southeast Nebraska at the date of writing. The weather brings sunshine and showers, dispelling fears entertained earlier in May of a dry season ahead. * • * You could hear a brick drop when Labor Secretary Tobin told the Hod Carriers that President Truman had led the United States to the highest moral stand ards ever shown by any nation. —Pittsburgh Press. . .

But, she thought uneasily, could she stop it? Now—late at night—the railroad station was closed! Seconds raced by while Carol Martin racked her brain—then, remembering the train dispatcher over in Melville, she quickly got him on the wire. Yes, he had a line to the tower. Yes, he’d stop the train. “And don’t worry,” he added. But Carol was al ready busy on another call—getting help to the scene of the accident. Carol Martin would be embarrassed if you called her a heroine. To Carol, like other telephone workers, it’s just part of the job to do everything possible to help in time of need. *The name htu been changed, bid the story is true.
