The sturdy old Scotchman must be amused at the recent "discoveries" that oatmeal is the best food in the world. Our scientific men have been making e-xperiments which prove that Ameri cans cat too much fat and grease and not enough cereals. The Scotchmen say: "Look at our nation as proof. The sturdiest nation on earth." Still we have one good point to make. Wc make better oatmeal than the Scotch. They buy Quaker Oats and consider it the leader of all oatmeals to be had anywhere. If you arc convenient to the store you'll probably buy the regular size package. For those who live in the country the large size family package is more satisfactory. Follow the example of the Scotch; eat a Quaker Oats breakfast every day. Maple 6rove Spcoiul Corrosponcli'nce Farming ha begun in this section full force.

XLV NO.SS Six Democrats Dodging the Real Issue The march of improvements in Plattsmouth city must continue. A democratic administration has been engaged for three years in remedy ing the defects of previous adminis trations and at the same time it has reduced taxes enormously. Mr. Taxpayer, kindly look up your tax receipts and find the rate you paid before the last democratic adminis tration went into power and see what you are paying now under the democrats. You will find an enor mous reduction in the rate and that is sufficient cause to justify you in voting for the democratic candi dates. -Plattsmouth Journal. The above editorial is intended to de ceive the taxpayers of this city. It is intended to cover up the leakages in the city treasury. When this adminis tration took charge of the city's affairs there was $16,000 in the city treasury, and the "Scavenger Suit" brought in about $28,000 of back taxes, making about $44,000 more cash furnished to this administration than prior adminis trations or will be to subsequent ones. The question id what has become of the $44,000. The treasury is overdrawn on the road fund $5100 today. first Church ol Christ, Scientist. Sunday Services, 11 a. m. Subject "Un eality."
