Sheldon Hanufactnrinc,- Company Has Largest Output of Concrete Machinery in Country. Few people of the great common wealth of iseorasKa realize that in Nehawka is located the largest con crete working machinery factory that exists in the United States. Never theless such is the case. Nehawka, former Lome of George L. Sheldon, ex-governor of Nebraska, is proud of the Sheldon Manufactur ing company, which lias in the past devoted itself largely to the manu facturing of machinery for working cement, and placed upon the market a machine not excelled by any. Their trade in this machine extends beyond the confines of the Uni'ecl States, into remotest Europe, Scuta America and the islands of the sea. Just now they are filling an order to Uruguay, South America. During the past fw years the Sheldon company has. been adding other specialties to their output, not '.. . i. . i i tne least among wj:iu nas ueen a patented saw rigging to both rip and cross-cut building matt-rial. Recently the suggestion of making a combined concrete mixer and saw rigging was suggested and found fa vor with the concern. Soon the new machine had been developed and to day it is on the market, a concrete mixer, or. if you choose, a power saw ing outfit, quickly convertible from one to the other. The combination machine promises to be greatly in de mand among building contractors, for it will not only mix the cement tor his foundations, etc.. but will saw the lumber for use it: erecting his buildings. The machine is operated by the IU h. p. gasoline engine here tofore used on the Sheldon company's mixer and which furnishes ample power for either operation. There has long existed . need for just such a machine at this and there is little doubt but sales will be heavy as its possibilities become known. Nebraska can feel no small degree of satisfaction that this little town within the confines of its border, is the home of such a titanic institution 5 the Sheldon company, which al though located in the home town of former Governor George L. Sheldon, was not named for him. but for George C. Sheldon, a relative of the ex-governor. Nehawka. too. can well feel a de gree of satisfaction and pride over having this institution in its corpo rate limits. From this factory Las been shipped concrete mixers to all parts of the earth, and not in isolated instances, but by car loads, for their business is one of much moment. ?dEveiii Fairy Tale tSyjAKZf GRAHAM BONNER.

Tm tired." said the giraffe. way that I am talked about." -What way Is that?" asked the giraffe in the next yard in the zoo whose name wus Gerry. The first giraffe's name was Georgie. "Oh." replied Georgie, "it is very tiresome to have the same thlng said about one all the time. I don't mind it once in a while, Miut all the time, that is too much. No, I do not like the way I am talked about ut all." "Well."' said Gerry, "you must tell me your . story and perhaps I could weep a giraffe tear or two to comfort you." "Gracious." laughed Georgie, "they'd dry up before they reached the ground." "Go on with your story." said Gerry. "I am interested in hearing it." "Well." said Georgie. "it is true that should a giraffe have a sore throat It would be extremely painful and it Is true that a giraffe can have a sore throat and that when he does he likes a little sympathy. "But this everlasting joking about it tires me. Folks come to the zoo and they look at me and stare up. Of course they have to stare up. They cot.ldn't look down and see Georgie Giraffe. No Indeed, they couldn't. "So they look up, and they say, " 'Just suppose he had a sore throat !' "As if hundreds and hundreds of people hadn't said the same thing. If I had a sore throat I would like to have people feel sorry for me us I said, but I do wish when they looked at me they would say something else beside that. "Every person who came to the zoo yesterday except two said that, and it did make me tired. "I felt I would like to ask them how they would like it if they had long neoks to have jteople say, in a laugh ing tone, ' 'Well, it would be a great pity If you had a sore throat.' "Of course it would be a great Dltv for a giraffe to have a sore ihroat, but they seem to think it Is funny to make that remark. "Gracious can't they think of some thing else to say?" "Perhaps they can't," said Gerry. "I believe they can, though," said Georgie, "for I'm told that people are sir.urt. Now a giraffe hasn't much in the way of brains. lie makes up for it in the length of his neck and in the length of his legs." "Can one make up for brains that way?" asked Gerry. i "I don't know whether 'one' can or not," said Georgie, "but I know I can end do. It Is enough for me that I have a good portion of some things, even if they're not brains. "But why, oh why, can't people say something else when they see me? Why can't they talk of the meals they've beard I had, or of the keeper who is so friendly, or of the way I've grown up? That's pleasant, for 1 grow : so fast, but I don't like them to say that in any superior tone. "I've heard grown-ups say to chll dren. " 'My dear, how you ve grown.' and I could see how the children did wish they would say something else because they said this in such a fine and condescending tone. I don't like to have them say that to me in that tone either. 'I don't want any one to say, "'My dear, how you've grown,' as though they wanted to be very kind and con descending. I like them to say, how ever, " 'Well, hello Giraffe. Whr.t a great big fellow you are growing to be. I'm honored to know you and proud to see the way you grow." "Dear me," said Gerry, "you are fussy. I think you ought to make out a list of rules for people and call it, " 'What Folks Should Not Say to the Giraffe.'" "I would," said Georgie, "if soiuc one would write It for me In the "people's language. And among the rules I'd put the two I've mentioned as I've suggested, and I could think up some other fine ones, too. This is the way the book of rules would start : "'Rule One. Do not talk only ot possible sore throats for giraffes. " 'Rule Two. Do not speak of how giraffes have grown in a condescend ing tone. And so on. It would be a good book," ended Georgie Giraffe proudly. Nebraska City &QmahaStago Line A. M. P. M. Leave Neb.

An admin istration move for a compromise on reservations to the four-power Pa cific treaty failed of immediate suc- Jcess today ,after it had stirred up a spintea aenaie in tne senate ioreign relations committee. Coming directly from a conference with President Harding, Chairman Lodge of the com mittee laid before his colleagues a revised resolution declaring in spe cific terms that the treaty does not contemplate an "alliance" and draft ed to take the place of the blanket reservation which a majority of the committee members had previously indicated they would support. Those who had sponsored the orig inal blanket qualification immediate ly opened fire on the new reservation and the hour of debate which fol lowed was described by senators pres ent as the stormiest passage witness ed since the days of the Versailles treaty fight. Senator Borah of Idaho and Senator Johnson of California, among the republicans, and Senator Pomerene, of Ohio, on the democrat ic side, were said to have led the op position to the administration pro posal, while all the other reservation ists reserved final judgment. In his advocacy of the" modified draft. Sen ator Lodge was neconded by Senators Kellogg of Minnesota and New of In diana, both republicans. Still Hope for Compromise Without taking action, the com mittees adjourned until tomorrow, and various groups began conferences in the hope that some more satisfac tory ground for compromise might be found to prevent a long reservation debate during committee considera tion of the treaty. The precise attitude of the presi dent regarding reservations was not explained to the committee by Sena tor Lodge, but members gained the impression that Mr. Harding was not disposed to accede to the blanket pro posal introduced several days ago by Senator Brandegee, republican, of Connecticbt, and now awaiting ac tion. 1 i It was indicated clearly that the white house would like to see all reservations voted down, but failing in that, they would continue to seek whatever softening appeared possible in the reservation proposals. The text of the new resolution was held in confidence and members of the committee said they had promised not to make it public. It provides briefly, that the'treaty is not under stood by the United States as forming an "alliance" or as committing this government to use of force, or as pro viding for the exercise of any power by this government except thru the usual processes laid down in the American constitution. Its language follows almost exactly the words of the president in laying the treaty be fore the senate. Attacked in the Senate While the committee elements were reforming their lines for a renewal of the argument at tomorrow's meet ing, the four-power treaty was at tacked in the senate by Senator Wat son, democrat, Georgia, who coupled a belated birthday tribute to George Washington with a prediction that the proposed four-power arrangement would be an expensive departure from the traditions of the fathers. Germany and Russia, he prophtsio'l. would be drawn together eventually in antagonism to the "quadruple al liance" with the result that a new balance of power arrangement would be established, involving the United States. Meantime, debate on the Yap treaty between the United States and Japan, which was to have been con tinued today, was shut off by other senate discussions. Senator Lodge called up the treaty soon after the day's session began and for more than four hours it remained technically before the senate w-ithout a sinple reference being made to It on' the floor. It will be brought up again tomorrow. ATTENDS FUNERAL HERE Mrs. B. M. Gerlach. formerly Miss Isabeil Shrader. and sister.
