Their Hearts Are Big-it Actual live business men do not often go to the cemetery to locate in business but prefer a place where the men congregate and their surround ings are such as will encourage them to make that place their Tiome.

The Community Spirit Triumphant The citizens of Nehawka and com munity have in the past demonstrat ed that there is much in team work in whatever line of endeavor the ef fort may run. In the p:it they have solved many hard and knotty prob lems by reason cf their wording to gether and throwing to the winds the selfish interests which in many com munities have prevented any ad vancement of the community spirit. This rallying around the central theme and that for the thing which is best for all built the auditorium and then made it possible to have cne of the first consolidated school, when the city and country ;like to-.ild benefit by an opportunity to ?T.ure a liberal education for every one who lias the ambition to strive for it. This is the spirit which built the pyramids, that sustained the American army at Valley Forge, and in fact that accomplished anything of moment in whirh it required the concerted efforts cf the people to bring acrcss. Iast week on Tuesday a meeting was held which was the initial to caring for the welfare of the community and the central idea being the doing away of some little incumbrance which h?& grown with the rhcent years wh-en the attention of the people had been drawn from the matter by the care of business life. Arrangements were made at this meeting for another which was call ed for Friday evening and all the business houses closed their doors at S o'clock and the whole community com together. Like in the town meetings of a century ago they con sidered the matters looking to. a bet ter Nehawka and whh -a -determination which brooked no interference they went after the work an! devised plans which will in the end make Nehawka a better town and will clear the auditorium from the in cumbance which o lightly clings to it.

ALLIES STAND PAT ON REPARATIONS Note Says Germany Must Meet the! Payments Due on May 31 To Exact Penalties. Paris, April 13. The reparations commission adopted tonight the text of a note to Germany informing it that the commission's decisions of March 21.' notably as regards pay ments to be made until May 31 are maintained and that if Germany does not take necessary measures to get its finances in order, the commis sion would be obliged on May 31 to exact penalties. The reply, which comprises nearly 1,000 words, begins: "The commission notes with sur prise and regret that the principal conditions under which the commis sion granted a moratorium to Ger many are categorically rejected." It suggests that the German gov ernment make a better demonstration of fiscal courage, for example with regard to taxation of current indus try and commercial profits. The note declares that Germany's reply with regard to new taxation and the provision of foreign ex change for reparation purposes is tantamount to a refusal to make any serious effort to supply foreign cur rencies for payment. The final paragraph contains the phrase: "The commission hopes that the intransigeant attitude taken in the German note was adopted with out adequate consideration of its necessary consequence."
