PLATTSMOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL THURSDAY, JUNE 24. 1920. PAOE FOUK ? Cbe plattsmouth journal PUBLISHED SEMI-WEEKLY AT PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA Entered at Postoffice, Plattsmouth, Neb., as second-class mail mutter R A. BATES, Publisher SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE Milk worth $72,000,000 was shipped out of the United States in 191S. : :o: IJecau.se it is now the prevailing style, no girls mind being out at the elbows. :o: It has Just about gotten so in this country that a boy who steals sugar is guilty of felony. :o: Potatoes have broken violently, dropping in the market to the prices oranges used to sell for. :o: From now on, a bonehead is one who thinks he sees a way to keep the country from .being bene dry. :o: We are true in word and deed to the wife of our bosom, but our last year's trousers ars leading a double life. :o: There is more joy in anticipation than in the real thing, and it works the other way, too, as those who their income iax."s on time can tes tify. :o: While the wages offered the har vest workers may not attract you so much, but it's going to be awfully hard to resist that "and board" this year. VICE PRESIDENTIAL WOMEN -:o:- Twenty-seven young men in the Princeton senior class have never kissed a girl. There is absolutely too much idleness in this country, and it is becoming a national men ace. :o: Tlw chances are that inside dope on politics is the same as the inside dip on a ball game. Some fellow who has been batting ISO will knock a home Vun ajid upset the whole thing. :o: One early result of high cost pre dictions in Kansas this year is the fact that in manysections farmers are "chipping in" and buying their own threshing outfits in neighbor hood groups. :o: Sweet to some are the uses of a 1 versity to others. It is reported that, on account of an extremely dr-11 season in the hoc and leather in dustry, many traveling salesmen '-on-nected with ths business have ciit their jobs and gone to work on farms. :o: "Warren Harding's reputation for playing the; alto horn was country wife", says a news item from the old home town. Warren must have had a reputation for tooting out at the wrong time. then. That's the only way any alto horn player ever attained more than a local reputation. It is merely a subtle compliment to the wemon, perhaps, that sets the dopesters at San Francisco to discussing the possibility and prac ticability of nominating a woman for vice president. A political man ager would think long and hard be fore venturing the experiment. He would want to see the proof, if there is proof, that women tend to support each other in politics. There are cynical theories to the effect that the gentle sex is peculiarly expert with the stiletto whenTts own sis ters are on the political operating table. The cold blooded party man ager would want to assure himself on this point before nominating a weman for vice president. Then, too, he would look carefully to the voting habits of the men when women are candidates. Men are a chivalrous lot toward women when it comes to saying who shall pass through a door first or who shall pay for the ice cream. Hut there i3 an easily discoverable limit to their self abnegation. We find the limit in street cars nowadays. As be tween men and women there has been no you-first business thus far in passing out the honors, in poli tics. Are the men taken serious ly enough in politics as ytt to per mit the placing of a woman on the national ticket? There is some question. Probably the convention at San Francisco .will be afraid of the experiment. This is the more likely since the anti-suffrage south has the veto there. It would truly be rubbing it in on the southern colonels to make ther.i swallow a woman vice president. Should the democrats wish to make the experiment, however, they will have no difficulty in finding a nom- j inoe who will, to say the least, main tain the average of vice presidential size adn weight. Mrs. Carrie Chap- j man Catt has led the world suffrage J movement with a statesmanlike abil ' itv not too often found even in th ?! 'presidential office. Hundreds of other women in that movement have displayed clear vision and good strategy. The best of all the nomin ating speeches at Chicago, as many thought, was that of a woman. Mrs. Kobinson. sister of Theodore Roose velt. The league of women meeting in Omaha this week was made bril liant by the ability of many of the addresses by women from within and from without the sstate. v If the democrats want to try putting a woman to keep the renate in order they will have no trouble to find good material on which to experi ment. :o: IS IS MERELY SILLY While it is generally admitted that considerable pussyfooting will be re quired to keep from breaking through the league plank In th-? G. O. P. plat form nobody experts a great deal of traffic on that end of the structure this summer anyhow. The people have a lot of other things on their minds. f LOTH ES are rnde to wear and -not to throw away. Clothes that have been worn are easily mde over and freshed up by proper "dry cleaning. Clothes that have become faded but still maintain their wear- fulness can be attractively dyed. The clothes of Dainty Dorothy that always look so .mart and srnil- injj have been worn for more than one season. She directs your altea tiou to our work. Goods Called for and Delivered Ifob OPPOSI fE. 1J0VRKAL OFFICE The effort of the republican party to straddle the league of nations i-J not only cowardly, but silly as well. This plank of the platform doe not even possess the merit of offer ing a well-sounding platitude. If we have learned anything at all from the recent war it has un questionably taught us that there can be no such thing as "splendid isolation." There's no such thing as standing still. Either the movement is toward an idealism, which may 1-e visionary, or towards a materialism, which has always (always, mind you!) broken down into conflict and chaos, blood and brutality.. This is true in morals religion, if you prefer. It is true in business. It is true in politics. A man or a nation either moves toward the Golden Rule, or away from it. Neutrality is impossible. It solves nothing simply to shoot holes in Article Ten and say "good bye. league!" We aro either moving onward to international understanding, or or towards its alternative, which is misunderstanding. We have recent ly se?n what misunderstanding means. Make no mistake. The loagu.-? of nations isn't to be settled by a twist of the tongue, or an impatient shake of the head. Nay, neither by a vortical or a horizontal shake. It is up for long consideration in this old world of ours. Consider well which you to throw ycur weight. :o: . V'e fear the Mexicans wish to cap ture Villa mor alive than dead. If th;?y really, wanted him dead they would first make him president. LEUAL SOTICB In the District Court of Cass coun tv. Nebraska. Benjamin E. SnoJsrafP. Plaintiff, vs. Ellen M.

Remember the mar velous instrument used in New York City was an exact duplicate of the original Offi cial Laboratory Model, which cost Air. Edison three million dollars in research work. We, too, have an exact duplicate of the famous three million dollar original. We guarantee that it is capable of sustaining all the astonishing tests made on March ioth, at Carnegie Hall, New York City. Come in and hear this guaranteed Official Laboratory Model. Experience its marvelous realism for yourself. We give Mr. Edison's unique Realism Test. uTie NEW EDISON "A portion of the demonstration was even carried on without the lights, so that no one could see whether Miss Case's lips moved or not. It was all genuinely instruc tive, and the twin-ship between Miss Case's singing, and the repro duction thereof, proved so close as to he often indistinguishable." IVt'-jj York Globe. "When you see and hear Miss Case sing, vou can scarcely believe that an art so essentially individual and personal as hers could ever be repro duced mechanically, yet the New Edison his succeeded to the point where the voice in the fluffy pink draperies and the voice in the ma hogany box seemed one and the same.'' N'?v York Evening Ala:. " When the lights were lowered, it was impossible to tell when it was Anna Case, and when it was only her voice that was singing." New York Evening Sun. The "dark scene" test was positive ly sensational in its proof of the realism of the New Edison. Anna Case, the world-famed so stood beside a dignified Chipoendale cabinet. She starred to sing. Her voice enthralled the audience with its colorful brilliance. Suddenly the lights went out. Densest black swallowed stage, phonograph and singer. When sou time in, af about the ttliar go farther the "The Phonograph with a Soul" But Miss Case's voice went smooth ly on. It rose to the very height3 of its superb artistry. Then, the lights flashed on! The audience gasped with astonish ment. Case was gone! Her voice had been coming from the New Edison. Under cover of the darkness, Miss Case had stolen from the platform, leaving the New Edison to con tinue her song alone. The audi ence never knew she had gone, till t.ie lights went up.
