BATES, Publisher SUBSCRIPTION PRICE $2.00 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE A lot of us save time and don't know what to do with it alter we vc saved it. :o: It'.s going U be n awful joke on istillinan if he had all this fuss lor nothing. :o: As a step toward universal peae. let's call it the War Debt instead of the National. -'O The clerk who knows least about the store's stock is always an author ity on baseball. 0:0 After all. why be harsh with Thom as A. Edison? His business is invent ing, not education. :o: Only people who laugh and prow- fat arc those who do not have to work for their board. :o: When you think a newspaper story is wild, you ought to see some of the fctuff we can't print. : o : Maybe KorfatUy. thhe polish lead er, is angry because the German troops use his name as a swear word. :o: An organization of ;, i00 trav eling men will ban high-priced ho tels. Where'll they sleep? In the de pots? :o: The man who strikes out of sym pathy for some other person on a strike has mighty little sympathy for his family. :o: The proper place for a m.m who won't work and resorts to violence to k'rp others from work in;; is be hind jail bars. : o : If it i; true that Lenine hit gone crazy, then there won't be anything to di.-t ingui-di him from the- rest of his bunch. -o: Tho-e bandits who robbed a t'hl cago cabaret crowd of $10,000 must have picked the waiters as theii principal istims. :o: The Shriners have so many cere monials these days that we some times wonder when the find time to work for a living. : o : Kumors that Trotzky was ill have been confirmed, reads a dispatch. And Unless a man is willing to do some thing he will amount to nothing. :o: Normalcy seems satisfied enough but nobody has rocked the boat yet :o: Many a young man worships a girl on his knees if she's sitting there :o: In the meantime the ancient and noble game of golf is doing something toward cementing the friendships of the more cultured powers. :o: There are several young fellows in this town whom we are glad to count as friends despite the fact that they play the slide trombone :o: If Uncle Sam does not effectually check that insurgency in West VIr ginia we may reach the point where Mexico will refuse to recognize us :o: A Memphis baker has invented a chocolate-covered pretzel. Taken with an ice cream soda it would no doubt furnish a noon. very hilarious after- :o:- if con nrin.it ion is our indorsement not sufficient, here's also. :o: If we didn't have prohibition there would be a lot of fellows along about midnight who could understand the Einstein theory perfectly. :o: Of course it is none of our busi ness, but we some times wonder if a remarried widow hopes to meet both of her husbands in heaven. :o: It may be that the girls cover up their ears with tho e hair p'iffs so that they won't hear what is said about what they don't cover up. c "It don't t;:le a man long to bag his pants jt the kn'cs, and to make a finely tailored suit look thoroughly disrepu table that's tb" man of it," avers Dainty Dortliy. , !ut she go on to explain thot the man who is making ii e of our cleaning, steaming and pressing services is keep ing his clothes in much more presentable condition than when he got acquainted with u. And it doesn't coit much, cither. Goods Called for and Delivered u.MOMe $7rr$-S opposite: 166 MiLgJ0Uj?NAL OFFICE The public schools session is near ing an end and the fathers and mo thers of riattsnioutth will soon have a chance to get acquainted with their children. . o:o With nearly all the prohibition enforcement officers laid off duty lor the next five or six weeks, the moonshine stills will probably work overtime. to: The Japanese Crown Prince is go ing to pay a visit to the United States. Thus far he has not received any cordial invitations to stop in California. ' :o: As a general thing, when a woman wears one of thos backless waists it is tolerably safe to guess that somebody has told her that she can afford to do it. :o: "One dollar down and $2 a week while they last," says a phonograph advertisement, lleres hoping your misfortune is not to select one too durable. ore Maybe amtfhcr reason why grocer ies and meats remain high is that the grocer so often has to wait for his money, while the filling station man won't wait. :o: One grain of comfort to the Car pentier fans is the recollection that a lot of the dopesters who now pick Dempsey to win in tho first round also picked Willard. : n : The only trouble about letting the next generation pay ;: part of the expense of the World War is that the next generation may have a war of its own to pay for. :o: The season of June weddings ap proacheth. Frankly, we could never see any use in making the bride pro mise to obey unless the groom pro mises to keep his mouth shut. o:o The United States Chamber of Com merce says the railroads must cut to their operating expenses, or operate at a loss, of course. There's always an alternative to everything. :o: The death of Chief Justice White and Franklin K. Lane, each instance following surgical operations, recall the classic to the effect that "the operation was highly successful, but the patient died." :o: President Harding's father says that "Warren never made an enemy in his life." That's merely another way ;of saying that he has never done much that is really worth while. The big men of the world have been judged by the enemies they made. :o: Job was a patient man, according to the Bible, but he did not belong in the sime class with a friend of i ours who came back to town last night, after sitting all day on the river banks waiting for the fish to bite .annoyed by flies, gnats and mos quitoes, and finally land a catfish about three inches in length. :o: It is a tolerably safe guess that President Harding will appoint Ex Preident William H. Taft as Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court. The name of Secretary of State I Charles Hughes is prominently men tioned, but a3 Mr. Hughes is about j the only really big man in the Hard- ing cabinet it ia more likely that the I President w ants to keep him where ! he is. The death of Miss Nellie Fitzpat rick, a former resident of this city occurred on Thursday night at the St. Bernard convent In Council Bluffs la., where for several years past she has been making her home and where she had been devoting her time to the work of the Catholic church of which she has been a devout member during her lifetime. The deceased lady was twenty-nine years of age and was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Fitzpatrick, for many years residents of this city until their death a number of years ago, and since that time the daughter has been residing In Council Bluffs at the convent where she was interested in the work of the sisterhood of St. Ber nard. Born and reared in this city the departed lady made many frienas who will regret greatly to learn of her death, although a sufferer from childhood with sickness that prevent ed her from the enjoyment of the ac tivities common to other young peo pie she was greatly beloved by the circle of friends who had knbwn her best. To mourn her death theer remains one brother, John Fitzpatrick. who has just recently gone west and whose whereabouts was impossible to ascer tain in time to inform him of the death of the sister. Two uncles. Ow en Clifford of Weeping Water and T. S. Cliftord of this city as well as an aunt,- Miss Josephine Clifford of Omaha, are also left to mourn the passing of Miss Fitzpatrick. The body was brought to this city this morning on Burlington train No. C. and taken direct from the station to the St. John's Catholic church where the funeral mass of the church was celebrated by Father Ferdinand Sucsser of the Holy Rosary church. owing to the sickness of Father m . Shine. The hody was laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery west of the city. VERY PLEASANT SHOWER From Saturday's Dally.
