No, Gwendoline, we believe that

opinion he may have concerning
Bryan's mentality in other respects.
NEEDLESS WORRY
The census bureau is fretting
about the cook statistics. There are,
according to the 1920 census, but
333,436 female cooks in the United
States. Something like one cook for
every three hundred persons. The
bureau is worrying about the mat
ter. Indeed, so impressed was one cen
sus pessimest that he quotes:
"We can live without, poetry, mu
sic and art;
We may live without conscience and
live without heart;
We may live without friends; w may
live without books;
But civilized man cannot live with
out cooks."
Of course- he cannot'live without
cooks! Why should he? But there
rs no need of such a lot of fretting.
What if the employment offices have
a dearth of cooks? One may always
get a good cook by the matrimonial
route. The census bureau is all
wrong. Instead of there being 333,
436 female cooks in this country,
there are several million, usually one
in every house.

A LONG WAY TO DK0P
The break in prices promises a
lower cost of living. This ought to
tickle both the pay envelope and the
dinner pail. But there's quite a dis
tance between the high cost of liv
ing 01, say, nve years ago.
The increase in the cost of food
is best illustrated by showing the
cost of the navy ration.
This year the ration has averaged
70 cents per man per day. During
1919 it was 55 cents. The year be
fore it was 58 cents. At the begin
ning of 1915 it was 36 cents.
If the cost of eating is to drop to
the pre-war level it will have to do
more tumbling than grocer's bills
have shown the last few weeks.

OUR FIRE TRAPS.
There were 10,210 persons burned
to death in this country last year.
There were 17,641 people seriously
injured in fires. And of those who
died or were injured S2 per cent
were mothers and little children.
And 92 per cent of all these fires
that caused a financial loss of two
millions of dollars a day were due
to carelessness or neglect.
The tacts come from figures just
presented at the national uoaru 01
Fire Underwriters. And hidden
away in the report it is stated SS9
homes are being burned every day.
at a loss of $289,000. the onging of
65 per cent of the fires being from
trivial and preventable causes.
Iropped matches, lighted cigars and
cigarettes, for instance.
Ah, here is a significant state
ment, worth all the time it takes to
read this editorial, if folks will only
act upon it: "Over 90 per cent of
the school houses in the United
States are veritable firetraps. No
member of the board of education
has done his duty untiijie has given
every possible protection to tne
children entrusted to his care.-'
The National Board of Fire Under
writers, when its officials made that
statement, had in mind a horrible
school catastrophe. "By a careful
survey of school buildings througn
out the country it is found that the
lesson learned in the Collinwood
school fire has already been forgot
ten. Boards cf education are elected
to take care of, and are made re
sponsible for the educational system
of our country, and the welfare of
the pupil."
Forty-three people being burned
to deatn eacn day is too many; 4.'
being injured through fires each day
is also far too many; and if it is
true that 90 per cent of the school
buildings are firetraps, that percent
age is miles too high.
Let's be careful about fire. Let's
make the nation's school houses fire
proof. "Firetraps", when applied to
school house building wherein are
housed dear little helpless children,
ias a sinister sound.

THE DRAFT DODGERS
The legislative committee of the
American Legion has asked the judi
ciary committee of congress to ex
tend the statute of limitation for
draft dodgers from three to six years.
During the hearing some highly
interesting facts were brought out
showing that the department of jus
tice has been outrageously negligent
in prosecuting more than 150,000
persons wno are positively Known to
have dodged the draft.
Prosecutions of this kind have been
few and far between. Here in Ne
braska a large batch of cases were
certified from the adjutant-general's
office, but if more than three or four
persons were brought into court and
punished it is not a matter of rec
ord. The department of justice has been
strong on promises of prosecutions,
but mighty inefficient in doing the
actual work.

NEW HUNTING LICENSES.
County Clerk George It. Sayles has
just received his hunting and fishing
licenses for the year 1921 and is now
ready to place them into the hands
of the prospective hunters and fish
ers. It would be well for those who
are followers of these sports to get
licenses early in the new year as
the state authorities are on the look
out for those who violate the lawin
the . respect of fishing or hunting
without a license.
During the past year Mr. Sayles
has disposed of 300 of these licenses
in the county to the nim roils and
sharpshooters.

You Can Wear These Reduced
Blouses Now or in the Spring!
Because many of them are developed of beautiful lacy
and sheer materials. Some are designed to fall over the
skirt while others tuck in. And even though there are
very few Blouses of a x kind you are sure to find modes
that will fit you perfectly, for all sizes are included in this
remarkable sale. But the very fact that prices are way
down and the sizes broken means that best bargains will

LONG SERVICE IN
CONGRESS OF U. S.
Undo Joe Cannon Hopes to Live
Hundred: Years and Beat the
Eritisli Kccord.
Washington. Dec. 2S. "Uncle
Joe" Cannon, war horse of the house
of represent:: tives, today established
a new American record.
With the dose of a dull house ses
cion he passed the mark for length of
service set by Justin Smith Morrill of
Vermont, who as senator and repre
sentative, served forty-three years,
mne months and twenty-four days.
The former speaker will begin tomor
row adding new time to his own rec
ord, with the hope of reaching the
ripe old age of 100. and beating Glad
stone's record of fifty-three years in
the Briti:,h houe of commons.
"Uncle Joe's" achievement will be
celebrated in the house tomorrow,
with Champ Clark, himself a veteran,
i wlio retires March 4, leading the
cneakino:
ceremonies. Mr. Cannon
also will speak, and many of the
cider members will ask them for a
fe wremarks.
Walking about the corridors of the
cnpitol today, chewing his long black
(ii'fir, ?dr. Cannon told a friend tliore
wr.s no use offering n little advice
to younger representatives, because
fti nchO'ly ela wo:? always thinking
up smart things and attributing them
to him. The re.iiuik, charged to Mr.
Cannon, that they put spurs on the
heels of army officers to keep their
feet from slipping off the desk, was
ne ver uttered by 'iim.
"But. what's t'ae use?" he asked.
Counting als victory in the rec?nt
landslide. -Mr. Cannon has been elects
cd to cor.grc.s t'et nty-three ti.ea.
He is now ending the forty-fourth
year of service. First elected In
1S72, he has just kept coming to
congress ever since, with the ex
ception of two bad Novembers when
the people failed to return him. On
May 7. next, ne vil be eighty-'.ive
years old. Few cf his friind re
member that ne was 'nun at Cullford,
X. C. He s:rved eight: years as
5-praker. and has Deen ioing commit
tee work so long he has forgotten
when lie started.
"Gladstone served fifty. three years
in the British house of commons,
and with good election luck I hope
to beat that," the former speaker
snid. "I have had faur years ab
sence I didn't ask for, and hope
to reach the fifty-three, but then you
never can tell."

WILSON VETOES BILL TO
PERMIT IHTERLOCO
Washington, Dec. 30. President
Wilson vetoed today the joint reso
lution designed to suspend a section
of the Clayton act prohibiting com
mon carriers from dealing with any
concern having interlocking direc
torates with the carrier except to a
limited extent as to contracts. . ' .
The message was read in the Ben
ate end some discussion followed as
to what should be done with it. Sen
ator Le Follette, republican, Wiscon
sin, finally asked that it go over and
this was agreed to.
The president in his message said
the principle of the Clayton act waa
sound, and that inasmuch as Section
10 had been suspended ever t ince the
act was passed in 1914, the carriers
had had ample time in which to ad
just the affairs so as to comply with
the law. .

heard so much about Doan's Kidne;
Tills helping other pople who hat
been troubled as I was, I tried then
with the best of results. The one boi.
from Fricke & Company's drug store
