Neb., as econd-class mall matter R. A. BATES, Publisher SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PES YEAR IN ADVANCE At least one-half the people ap pear to be up and doing the other half. :o: The balloon may be only a bag of wind, but it is, at least, self-supporting. :o: Campaigns against the cigaie'te are in vogue in Kansas towns where bad whi.-key sells for 1S a quart. :o: A host of miracle seekers are be ginning to fear that Judge Ander son's injunction wasn't an injunction after all. :o: Those British experts in this coun try getting information on how to modernize their telephone systems, don't even attempt to describe what their service must be over there. -:o: Pupils in the Plattsmouth high school are enthused with class sen timent of course. If they weren't we wouldn't give much for the kind of things they must be learning. :o. The German mark has dropped to a value of 2.15 cents, which is still something over three cents above the value German diplomatic state ments were held at in this country in 117-1S. :o. A good many people believe it would be line if alcohol could be used in motor car engines, and ev erybody agrees that if a tool driver must drink anything strong, it might j as v. ell lie cra-uline. :o: Lack of production is responsible for high prices, it is said. And who wants to go to work at producing for lower wages than now being paid? S it may take a good while before The oo; is lowered much. -:o: Senator PoindexKr has introduc ed a bill to curb men who no about advocating the overthrow of the government. It is feared the sena tor has no consideration for Secre tary Baker's conscientious objectors. :o: "t'heer up." says the Hopkins. Mo.. Journal. "You will not have to worry about coal strikes when you get to your future home." But wasn't one of the strikers quoted a week or so apo as being determined to fctay out "till hell freezes over?" : n: One curious thing about coal and shoes and overcoats and turkeys and things which are always "scarce and hiKh" at this time of year is that they're always higher than they are scarce. The supply never seems to run out for those who have the mon ey to pay. :o: When the factories over the coun try shut down and employes are de prised of their jobs as a result of the coal shortage, possibly some of Hie strike-imbued brother unionists of the coal miners will lose their en thusiasm for the miners staying out unit! "hell freezes over." After all. it depends a great deal on where the freezing is taking place. INVESTMENTS Public"5ervice Corporal fort Paying Can be had in amounts of $100 . PAUL FITZGERALD, Investment Securities First National Bank Bld'g, Omaha, Neb. Si If luck was an alley pome people would be a whole boulevard. -:o:- The cry for modern homes Is not decreasing. but rather increasing as the days go by. Laugh and grow fat. This method is the only one now in reach of the, average purse. -:o:- A number of Iowa factories closing down through lack of are in- ability to secure "coal. :o: With 317 revolts in 112 days Mex ico apparently is suffering a short age of ammunition or something. -:o: A increase in wages would look mighty pood to a lot of labor- j ing men right now. No back pay. thank you. :o: Xot all people are lucky, though. We know one for instance who is that unlucky that if it were raining soup he'd be there with a fork. About the best Christn as present you may be able to give your friends this year is an order for a ton of coal subject to the approval, of! course, of the fuel director. :o: Basket ball prospects look good for P. II. S. this year. Our boys got right up among the leaders last sea son and it is hoped they may finish at the head of the list this year. There are some people whom the shortage of coal won't interest un til it becomes so acute the pow r plants can no longer furnish elec- tricitv and their favorite movie show is forced to close its doors. :o: We celebrated the armistice he- cause we thought it meant peace. and we celebrated the injunction becau.-e we thought it meant coal. Iiut. aside trom a few things Iiko; that, we humans are a prcttv smart race. If our meat de.Ter would quit weighing in the h"ad and feet of spring chickens we buy every aut- umn we would feel sorrier for him when he says he loses money on ev ery piece of pork the packers sell him. :o: The proposal to change the date of Thanksgiving day to that of Ar mistice day surely hasn't been con sidered with due regard to the prin cipal use of Thanksgiving day in recent years. November 11 is en tirely too early for a championship foot ball game. :o: "Time to order a turkey." mar keters advise us. But it is long past time to start a savings fund for one-. If you didn't think of that eigiit , I months ago, you'd better walk right on past the man at the turkey coun ter, for he's a bear and doesn't like to be bothered by tri tiers. :o: Chivalry is not pronounced quite dead in this country, but the men haven't met the real test yet. The real test will come when some old oflice holder meets an opportunity to iret un an.l L-ive some iWrvin-i. lady v.der his seat at the pie coun-L ter. My. what a wail. :o: When it pleases you to have some' , . , , double chinned widow make eves at , ., , you: when you begin to build tali .... .A recruit in the navy or marine': siui it.i uu iiuuy luei neea e ioii.s , wneii leoplo commence to consult yoil about the weather tomorrow; when they laugh at you instead of with you; when you have an automobile! appetite and a wheelbarrow diges tion, anel when yem discover that all I outii; men" are inte rnal fools then you are growing old. Football and the price of turkeys now have the spotlight. :o: Rabbit meat is higher this; year than ever before, because well just because. :o: wiui me jiicMiu jmh-v ..o. --"-- citv of coal, home is about the dear est spot on earth. :o: If general leisure is a most desir able state, this ought to be a most devout Thanksgiving. :o: We have been told that in the eur Iv days of the church even Cliris- tians loved one another, I .o: It is hoped that everybody will : stop fighting on Thanksgiving day I long enough to give thanks for the peace our country has enjoyed the last year. :o: The general situation seems to I .. pretty well summed up in the con fession of an Atchison negro: "1 sleeps well, and I eats well, but somehow I has no eh-siah to work." -:o:- The news that a Kansan has in- vented a musical typewriter is very interesting to many who have long since tired of popular songs writ ten on a mimeograph. : o : One thing is certain. The Ameri can people are not having a walk over time with the American proti- l teer. He is acting more like a! I criminal with each coming day. j :o: ; Perhaps two holidays in November ; are too many, and Thanksgiving ami Armistice day should be consolida'-. ed. but how is it going to be done! without disarranging the time-honored foe ilia 11 schedule? : o : - If you are good at mathematic work this one out.
