FAST TRAINS KAY RUN THRU WINTER Burlington Nos. 1 and 10 are Un der Consideration Company Finds Need for Tlicm Prom Friday's Dally. Whether the Burlington will dis continue trains Xoi;. 1 and 10 for the winter season is a question not yet decided by the Burlington man agement. Some time aeo this mat ter was up for consideration and a move was made to discontinue this service, but so far no definite de cision has been made in the matter. It is said that these trains are very needed on the lines east of the river. No. 1 leaves Chicago for Den ver at 5:30 p. m. and is a very pop ular train from Chicago for western Iowa and Nebraska points. It han dles a great deal of traffic that would overburden other trains if No 1 were out of service. No. 10 eastbound, passing thru Lincoln near the midnight hour, sees day light in eastern Iowa first, and from then on takes up a heavy part of the Chicago-bound traffic. If these trains were taken off some substitute service would have to be offered in Iowa and Illinois, and in Nebraska it probably would be necessary to run local trains thru Oxford or McCook to give the serv ice needed from Lincoln. Therefore the saving would not be great. No statement has been issued con cerning the plans of the company in regard to these trains, but it Will not surprise many Burlington men if they are left in service, provided, of course, a strike does not disar range service so that even greater sacrifice in the way of travel con veniences must be made.

On Wednesday, October 27th, at Chicago. Clare L. Gardner, only son of'The Beacon family, was united in marriage fo Miss Nellie Carlson, cf Des Moines, Iowa. We have not re ceived details of the event at this writing, biit as it war, scheduled to occur, we have no doubt all is well. The groom enlsted in Co. G, Fifth Nebraska National Guard about two weks after war was declared, and af ter a few months in camp at Hast ings, was sent to Camp Cody. N. M., where he remained for practically a year. In June following he went "over there" and after many experi ences, was wounded in action on November 1st, in the Argonne drive, just eleven days before the Armistice was signed. After several operations, he was returned to the States and taken to Fort Sheridan. 111., and was discharged on September 1, a year ago. after having spent 22 months in the hospitals. Since his discharge he has been taking vocational train ing in Chicago, and of late has been connected with a large real estate ttrm. Miss Carlson is an army nurse who hurseel her husband through many months of his illness. She likewise received her discharge some time ago and since has been in demand as a nurse in Chicago. We have never met the lady, but have every evi dence of her sterling worth and char acter. Her lofty patriotism and ten- der ministration to wounded soldier are alone sufficient Christian graces to endear her to those who love the boy. We heartily welcome her into our household. For the present they will live in Chicago. Eagle Beacon. U you want good printing, let n I do your work. Hest eouipped job j sdiop in south castera I?ebras.k&.

Last evening the high school foot ball team was engaged in scrim mage practice at the baseball park with the American Legion team and during the practice Louis Svoboda, left half back of the high school team, suffered the double fracture of the right leg, one fracture just below the knee and one just above the ankle, and this injury spells the retirement of this clever young football player from the game this season, if not for all time. The two teams were working out and the high school attempted an end run and in doing so Iouis was tackled by Frank Lewis of the le gion team and both of the young i men fell to the ground and as they j fell, the other players heard the! sound of the breaking bones of the j leg or young Svoboda. and ran to j his assistance as he lay helpless on j the ground. The injured hoy was' taken direct to the of!"es of a sur geon where the bones were set and it was not until "7:'.',0 that the in jured boy was a Me to be taken home havinj? required some two hours to maV.r the setting of the injuries. Th accident has come as a se vere blow to the high school tesm, not alone on account of the splen did playing ability of the in jured boy. but the deep affection in which he was held by his associ ates in the school. The loss Svobo da, who has been the most effective player on the high school team this season will cripple the team very much and with the prospect of the game with Nebraska Citv on next Friday there will have to stiff work to develop a man fill the place of Svoboda. be some who can HAS HAND INJURED From Saturday's Iaiiy.

II SCHOOL CHILDREN PAY : TRIBUTE TO ROOSEVELT Junior High School Hold Patriotic Convocation this Morning: in lienor of Roosevelt. f'r : Friday's Dally. j morning the junior high 1 hi i rchor-l, t ighth special composed of the seventh and grades of the city, held a patriotic convocation at the :ium of the high school in of the sixty-third birthday I gymnai honor anniversary of President Theodore Roosevelt. The services were opened with patriotic singing led by Mrs. E. II. Wescott and in which the songs of the American republic were given with much pleasing effect by the young people. ' Rev. A. G. Hollowell. pastor of the Christian church gave the ad dress of the occasion taking up the phase of the life of the great Amer ican, as scout, cowboy, soldier, gov ernor of New Yorkand as the Presi dent of the United States and in which many interesting" facts were related of his personality, his fam ily life and his aggressive Ameri canism that had stamped him as a leader of his nation in the world. At the conclusion of the program the salute to the flag was given by the young people, being led by Chas. Richards, president of the eighth grade and the occasion was truly inspiring as the school numbering 175 pledged their allegiance to the republic and its star spangled ban ner and the principles on which it had been founded. EDISON'S WITTY SAYING Edion once waa asked if he did J 2'ot attribute his success to inspira tion. "No." said Edison, "I attribute it to perspiration." Inspiration means in this case awakening, creation of i thoui-.ht ; perspiration means sweat ling for hard work. It is a good j many years since hard work was in i vented, and while thousands of men have tried to reach the Koal of suc cess without it it still, stands in the PUrcrt, ' positive way of meetinr with, good success. If asked ab- r the main cause of the success of rlner's Bitter Wine, the late Joser Triner would have given the sair 'nsv.er as Edison. Today Trine Hitter Wine i- a remedy known t. .iglmut the United States and Canada as the most reliable help in case of poor appetite, constipation, headaches ami other stomach troubles. And every customer becomes its sincere propa gator by merely stating the facts of sure help. Mr, Henry Niemeyer wrote us for instance from Larch wood, la., on Sept. 27: "One of our neighbors told me how Triner's Bit tor .Wine freed him entirely cf hi pases and sour stomach. Send it as soon as you can." Ask your drug gist or dealer in medicines also about other Triner's remedies and their excellent results.
