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.

The World-Herald yesterday con
tained a very attractive picture of
the young women who constitute the
graduating class of the University
hospital in the trained nurses' school.
Among these was Miss Gertrude
Itoessler, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
August Roessler of this city, and
who is just completing her work in
this great state training school. The
members of the nurses' training
class will go to Lincoln June 5th,
where they will participate with
the other graduates of the state uni
versity in the commencement exer
cises. There are few more efficient
schools of this kind in the country
than the great hospital training
school that the state of Nebraska
maintains at Omaha and their nurs
es"training department is one that
is well atteuded.

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,"

Rrji dre:: ed to her she might consider
;,ou that l:er performance in "Way
Down East" seems to me to be the
most superlatively exquisite and poig
nantly enchaining thing I have ever
seen in my life.
I remember seeing Duse in this
country when I Imagine she must
have been at the height of her pow
ers also Madame Bernhardt and
for ihecr technical brilliancy and
great emotional projection done with
an almost uncanny simplicity and
sincerity of method it is great fun
and a great stimulant to see an Amer
ican artist equal, if not surpass, the
finest traditions of the theatre.
I am not in the habit of writing
letters of this character and it is only!
a very rare experience .that could!
impel it.
