THURSDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1920. PAGE FOUR PLATTSMOUTH SEMI-WEEKLY JOUBNAL Cbe plattsmouth journal PUBLISHED SEMI-WEEKLY AT PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA Entered at rostoffice, Plattsmouth, Neb., as second-class mail matter R. A. BATES, Publisher SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE A White Christmas means much. :o: Did you have a merry Christmas? :o: J-'our more days, girls, and leap year is gone. :o: Pretty cold, but better than rain and sloppy weather. :o: Our merchants all did a good busi ness the week before Christmas. :o: The Elks did a great deal in try ing to make the poor children of the city happy on Christmas day. c i What has become of the old-fashioned woman who would rather dis cuss gowns that government? :o: Charlie Chaplin has been running around New York incognito. If his pants fit he's thoroughly disguised. , :o: What the average man wants now adays is some sort of law that will enable him to live without economiz ing. : o A3 we understand the decision of the supreme court the rum hounds may now keep the stuff in their ken nels. :o: An Atchison Republican says: "Harding saved my vote by confer ring with Bryan after instead of be fore election. :o:- With the parliament building closed and barriers across Downing street, England seems to be digging In for a long seige. :o: One of the worst things about it is that the fellows who are the far thest away from being Caruso never burst any Mood vessels. :o: Another discouraging thing about the crime business these days is that a criminal has to exert himself so in order to get any publicity. :o: A Brooklyn woman is suing her husband for divorce because he threw his glass eye at her. Perhaps hubby had just bought a new eye. :o: President-elect Harding might solve the question of having a wo man in the cabinet by naming Mrs. Harding as one of its members. :o: Get your resolutions ready, hoys, for adoptions, and after you have adopted them be sure that you keep them through the year of 1921. :o: Unless some of the stores come down on the price of underwaer the well known U. V. D. stuff will have to stick it out through the remainder of the winter. :o: Will not the coal dealers regard this cold wave, immediately follow ing a decrease in fuel prices, as an unfriendly act on the part of the weather bureau? :o: If it is true that King Constantine has an American adviser and any at tention is paid to his advice, you may read most any morning that Tino has moved again. :o: A prohibition enforcement agent in Philadelphia absentmindedly drank a quart of evidence in his hands. Isn't it strange to what extent this abberation is spreading? :o: That crime wave in New York is becoming alarming for those whose sympathies were with the police. Perhaps it would help to close the sa loons until the strife quiets. o:o The Federal Trade Commission re ports that 10 wheat mills hold a monopoly of the wheat flour milling industry in the United States. These mills manufacture more than half the flour used in this country. :o: The people of Athens continue their celebration of the return of Constantine. Villagers near. Athens are preparing to present Constantine a golden cavalary saddle, the cost of which is estimated at $25,000. :o: New York boasts of 900,000 tele phone subscribers. We'll bet the amount of our 'phone bill for the cur rent month that it isn't a bit harder to get a connection in New York than it is right here in Plattsmouth. OLD STANDBY, FOR ACHES AND PAIS Any tnan or woman wbo keeps Sloan's handy will tell you that same thing ESPECIALLY those frequently attacked by rheumatic twinges. A counter-irritant, Sloan's Lini ment scatters the congestion and pent trates without rubbing to the afflicted part, soon relieving the ache and pain. Kept handy and used everywhere for reducing and finally eliminating the pain3 and aches of lumbago, neuralgia, muscle strain, joint stillness, sprains, bruises, and the results of epobare. You just knozo from its stimulating:, liealthy odor that it will do you good I Sloan's Liniment is sold by all drug gists 35c, 70c, $1.40. Eflcnm: linimen-tra The chief trouble with Ireland is that it is overrun with the Irish. lo:o The one best bet for today is that they are still having trouble in Ire land. :o: While talking about the disarma ment of nations, why not also go af ter the pistol toters? ;o: Congress is about to agree on an emergency tariff bill to help out the poor rich men. :o: A Philadelphia man was killed by drinking hair tonic. Probably just curled up and died. :o: Don't put all your eggs in one bas ket especially while they linger around eighty cents per dozen. :o: Even Hiram Johnson must admit that the league of nations has a quor um without the United States. Where is the old-fashioned man that used to say that absolute pro hibition would decrease crime. :o: Greeks bearing gifts will be barred by Constantine especially if they are carrying monkeys. :o: The mistletoe crop this year is es pecially large, but that doesn't ne cessarily mean a big crop of mar riages. :o: "A national disgrace" is what Sen ator Calder says about coal profiteer ing. But what is he going to do about it :o: Some of the grass widows who are trying to wear a sportive appear ance look very much to us like they had gone to seed. :o: The broad way that leads to de struction is still open to traffic, but there are fewer wrecks occasioned by skidding on the wet pots. :o: A fellow doesn't mind so much confessing that he has kissed other girls, but he hates to tell who they are, fearing that his tastes will be impeached. :o: Eetroit schools are going to teach youths how to lay bricks. This is a great improvement over teaching them to throw 'em, as many of us are doing. :o: If everybody thought, as much of their children at other seasons of the year as they do during the Christmas holidays, this would be a much hap pier world. One newspaper says . President elect Harding smokes cigarettes An other declares he does not smoke at all. But, anyhow, after March 4th, watch his smoke. :o:- While giving Santa Claus all the credit for a merry Christmas, don't forget that the postman and the de livery boy had a considerable hand in the hard work. o:o Uncle Sam has deported Ludwig Martens', so-called Soviet ambassador to the United States. It took a long time to find out that he was just an ordinary anarchist. o. o The national reform organization says it will spend one million dollars next year to make America virtuous. As a matter of fact, it will probably spend the amount making a few re formers rich. -:o:- It is quite appropriate that it should cost 100 per cent more to in augurate Warren Harding than was ever spent on the inauguration of a president. It cost 100 per cent more to elect him. -:o:- A labor leader says that the Amer ican workman will not accept a low er scale of living. They may not think so, but everybody will have to accept a lower scale of living or the whole world will go broke. :o: When the hogs and cattle go up on the market, meat on the butchers' block gets the news Ly telegraph, but when they take a tumble the re tailer generally gets the news by freight if they ever hear at all. :o: Georges Carpentier, voicing his re gret that the baby wasn't a boy, said: "Oh, well, I shall make a tennis champion out of her, then." Some tennis .champions, it appears, arc made, and others are born. Thia was born. CANADA LEADS US. -:o: There is now a movement to take the buffalo off the nickle. We do not see the point. The nickle is now much wilder than ever and the buffalo certainly indicates it better than anything we can think of un less we substitute the jack rabbit. :o: How does the Paris physician who declares that the weight of a kiss is two milligrams explain the case of the Associated Press man who went to Russia and was greeted with a kiss by Emma Coldman? It is said that he has lost thirty-eight pounds. :o:- Contractors and laborers have both been blamed for the building and housing shortage in this coun try, besides the original blame laid on the manufacturers and retailers of building materials. The situa tion seems unique, as being the ouly shortage since the war the consumer hasn't been blamed for. After reading how we Americans are treating our own disabled heroes of the World War it is turning to a brighter page- to note Canada's liber- ally sympathetic manner of hand ling her disabled soldiers. This de spite Canada's smaller purse and larger proportion of disabled veter ans. Long before the war came to an end Canada had her hospital program in "good working order. Today thore is hanllv a rinnle of discon tent over the Canadian government's treatment of Canadian disabled he roes. The United States did noth in? before the war ended, toward a disability program, and has done lit tle since peaae came. Comnared to the United States. Canada is poor. Yet Canada gives her disabled veterans a larger pen sion than the United States gives. Canada gives more understandingly. The United States hands to each rlinhled hprn S1200 a vear. naviner the single man as much as the father of a large family. This, you must admit isn't f.ifr to the children and the'wife of the disabled father. Yet that's the way Uncle Sam does it! Canada pays the single man but JQrtft Th a livine- enst ts lower in Canada and Canada has less wealth with which to pay. But she pays the married man S300 additional. plus $180 for the first child, $144 for the second, and ?120 for each of tne others. -:o:- UNIVERSITY FELLOWSHIPS. The progress recently reported to ward the raising of the sum of ten thousand dollars, of which virtually a third is subscribed, for the estab lishment of a university fellowship in the name of Harry Kirk Wolfe, calls attention to one of the needs of the University of Nebraska which public generosity should supply. Xo institution of higher learning can remain such unless its professors are constantly. working with a group of advanced students in fields of inves tigation which call for unselfish and disinterested devotion of time and en ergy. It is such work that keeps alive the spirit of scholarship, and such spirit which makes it possible. not only for knowledge to be pre served and to grow, but for teach ers themselves to remain truly alive to their task and to recruit their num bers from the ranks of young men and women who are taught thereby to see that there is a reward in the life of the scholar beyond the mere living which it should yield. This fact is everywhere recognized, that is. everywhere universities are truly vital institutions. It has long been the custom in our older institutions for alumni and friends to endow fel lowships to be held for a few years by young men and women who are willing to make the great gift of their time in order that they may advance the impersonal interests of the world of learning. Nebraska has as yet received al- moFt nothing in this line and it ac cordingly has suffered and is suffer ing a serious handicap which the near future should see overcome. The movement to establish the Wolfe fellowship is in the right direction. It: is a beautifully appropriate me morial to one of the most devoted teachers the university ever knew. It looks to the establishing of a pre cedent which others should gladly follow. . For whether in the name of a teacher whose influence has mould ed the lives of hundreds of the state's citizens, or is a monument to a be loved one .there is no form of re membrance which could in the long run mean so much in human grati tude as does a fellowship, the in fluences of which are beyond count. A great building will have its brief day. A funeral stone will sink into the soil, or break under the frosts of time. But an endowment should endure for centuries, and through the centuries should annually cre ate new fame for its founder. :o: Constipation causes headache, in digestion, dizziness, drowsiness. For a mild, opening medicine use Doan's Iteguleta. 30c a box at all stores. Senator Kenyon of Iowa says that this country is short nearly 2.000.000 homes and that 15,000,000 people arc not properly housed. It is time they are stopping foreign immigra tion. o:o : Have faith in congress. The only thing that keeps it from acting right is that the members don't know what right is. :o; Never can tell when you'll mash a finger or suffer a cut, bruise, burn or scald. Be prepared. Thousands rely on Dr. Thomas Kclectric Oil. Your druggist sells it. 30c and 60c. POULTRY WANTED WE WILL BUY CHICKENS AT ED LUTZ STORE IN PLATTSMOUTH ON Saturday, Jan.

COMING IK SWAILMS Fifteen thousand steerago passen gers from the war swept countries of Europe spent Christmas eve on Ellis Island, the gateway to the United States through which most immigrants have to enter into this country. These people arc new comers, fresh arrivals with Yuletide steamers, many of whom were compelled to spend the night on the ships that broughtthem ove-r because there was no room for them in immigration headr-uarters, and the inspectors could not examine them fast enough to separate the acceptable from the undesirable, and allow them to land. The immigration problem is one that is worrying congress and will continue to for seme time to come. There is no doubt more people have their eyes set on America now than ever before, and it is equally as cer tain that they ever have been.
