Editor Journal: As an old timer and a reader of the Journal the writer wishes to note a few items of information for the benefit of the many readers with re gard to the soldiers home here. The home was located at Miiford twenty- seven years ago through the Influ ence of J. H. Culver. The original building was intended for a hospital for those seeking health in a changed climate and the use of the Shogo spring waters, the merit of which is widespread throughout the country, and prove an attractive resort to the many thousands who visit here every vcar to drink at this fountain for pleasure and health. The home now consists of five spa dious buildings located i on high ground with a view., of a beautiful country for miles In every direction. The state has recently built a large three story hospital for the sick and helpless comrades, their wives and widows, not only of the Civil war, but cf other wars as well. Many of the residents at the heme are now away visiting and will be more or lota all through the summer. There arc now only about sixty or seventy at the l ome, the majority of them being in the hospital and not able to leave. They are being well carad for under tho state Jurisdiction. With the coming cf fall the number will gradually increase as those unable to I provide for their support thru the winter return to take up their resl tdence at the home. A word for the tcwr. of Miiford. which we pre told v.as located by a group cf Germans who detested the sight of soldier and forIade their children to speak to them just at th close of the Civil war. Happily that spirit of hatred has passed away. Notwithstanding the beautiful lo cation of Miiford it has been slow in growth almost sixty years old find ionly numbers in population about jsOO inhabitants. It made a much needed improvement last year in the pavement of its principal business street. There are bxit few modern con veniences in the town. " Miiford took its name from the lo cation of a mill at the ford on the 'Klue river. (Mi'.l-ford) J The tenement houses are old fash- jioned. built low, and with but little or no lounaaiion. in spue oi us ock of modern conveniences Miiford is very desirable town in wnicn to live however, being especially favor ed as to location. Here is located a beautiful and well kept cemetery in which many of the old soldiers who die while re siding at the home are laid to rest, to await the resurrection. Their graves are designated with appropri ate markers and kept up in fine shape. Some censure is due Miiford mer chants who impose on the old sol diers in their charges, which are much more than the Lincoln prices for the same H!acs cf articles. For instance, Robert's one-half pint of crenm sell3 in Lincoln delivered for nine cents, while in Miiford we niust pay 15 cents rer one-half pint, or ih'? .sum of six cents per bottle extortion. 1 sJ&W&lu rUlterfftL Ltf I 2 TjF Ml LSII DAY JiFTESrlOOM Kotfcodist Cliurdi is Cvcwicd CM Fricrcls and Teirrhjc: 3 To Pay Their PMIF 3 PARMELE THEATRE Fcur Days Commencing: 1!

M. sharp, on E3?a n U UyU Vr I 3 lr SIM RAIN OR SHINE If it rains, we will hold the sale under cover. I have been raising Hampshires for seventeen years, and I have always bought the best boars that I could find. My herd originated from the Pollard farm at Nehawka, and the Carl Schroder farm at Avoca, two of the best Hamp shire breeders in the state. I have owned and used boars that have taken many premiums. Some have gone to the Chicago stock show and won over all other breeds- These sows will all farrow within three Weeks. Terms, six months time on bankable note at eight per cent interest. The Cedar Creek baseball team, under the pilotage of Manager Rob ert M. Stivers, launched their home season Sunday when they played the team representing Avoca and as the result of the encounter the Cedar Creek team was the winners by the score of 12 to 1. The game is re ported as being good throughout apd neither team found any reason to "crab" any of the decisions of the umpire, H. J. Inhelder, or any of tho plays made during the game. The Cedar Creek team is one of the fast ones in the smaller towns and their sliowing so far this season has given their backers the most opti mistic view of the 1922 season that "melts in your mouth," then you get the delec table gum center. And with Wrigley's three old standbys also affording friendly aid to teeth, throat, breath, ap petite and digestion.
