The evidence ought to be aw ful strong by this time. to: It will often happen when a thing is originally wrong that amend ments do not make it right, but more often do as much mischief in one way as good in another. :o: Women are in the money making business only on a modest scale thus far trying their wings, so to speak. But one of these days some woman will do a Piggly-Wiggly .with a chain of apron shoppes, and make Henry Ford look like a college pro fessor. :o: iiV WW W VWV"W i t REX Y0UI1G General Auctioneer Live Stock Real Estate Personal Property PHONE 314 Plattsmouth, Nebraska Call at my Expense NOTICE TO CREDITORS The State of Nebraska, Cass Coun ty, ss.

STATE FINANCE BILL REJECTED BY LOWER HOUSE j Conference Committee is Named by Both Blanches House to In sist on Mathers-Dysart Bill Lincoln, April 26. Republicans and democrats in the lower house united today in refusing to concur in the blanket appropriation bill pass ed by the senate yesterday. There wasn't a single vote in favor of con currence. This action forced SDeaker Math , to arrange a compromise bill and ( present it to the two bodies for a ! compromise. House members of the conference committee are Burke, j Mears and Yochuni of Otoe. Senate members are Reed, Purcell and An- derson. Meantime, the house received the Mathers-Dysart. bills as amended by the senate, and they were referred to the judiciary committee, which now holds these bills as well as senate file 2, and another senate file, which, after the senate amendments were placed in the Mathers-Dysart bills, are identically the same as the Mathers-Dysart bills. In political circles it is expected that the house will not accept any senate hikes on the appropriation bill unless the senate accepts in part the Mathers-Dysart plan of government.

The staunch blue line of civil war veter ans, survivors of the prehistoric in ternecine conflict of more than sixty years ago, is rapidly being decimat ed from year to year, according to figures on file at the headquarters of the Grand Army of the Republic here. In 1922 the number, of G. A.

"Willett here. Dur ing that time the number of active posts in the country decreased from 4,218 to 3,659, indicating the aban- domncnt of 559 posts. uiie uy one me wr.ite haired veter- ans of Shiloh, Lookout mountain, Gettysburg and Chickamauga are answering the call of taps which sounded for so many of their com rades on the field of battle from '61 to 'G5. Preparations are being made here for the national encampment of the G. A. R. which is to be held in Mil waukee this fall. Attendance esti mates have been set at 20,000 as a, possioie maximum ugure. Members of auxiliary organizations includin the Sons and Daughters of Veterans may bring the total attendance up to &U.O0O, tho omcials say. Great care is being taken this year in the identification and housing of the veteran. Forms will be filled out at each post showing the name, post and organization and on this blank will be filed the housing information, thus avoiding confusion In resistra tion and elimination of the red tape 'hat heretofore is said to have been confusing to the old soldiers.

Swimming pools, gymnasiums, bowling alleys, billiard rooms, moving pictures and other modern appliances for church--es were advocated last night by Dr. Worth M. Tippy of the Federal Coun cil of Churches of Christ In an illus trated address to a small audience in the First Christian church. He showed many of the immense "seven day" churches of the country such as the great MadUon avenue (New York) church, with its 10 story church house; tho Washing ton Park Methodist church, Denver, with its open air auditorium; the Mount Vernon Place Methodist church, Baltimore; Christ church. riifninoii ri,,:,.ii o John ti bTvine Ne " He also slmwri B f t, i. community houses which have been a feature of modern church develop ment, some of them costing half a million dollars. "A church should be essentially a place of worship, though," he said. "The Methodist board of architec ture recently said that tho demand is becoming almost unanimous for edi fices on the Episcopal style Instead of the intensely practical treatment which has heretofore marked Metho dist edifices. . "I have been asked whether all these gymnasiums, bowling alleys, moving pictures and the like do not1! detract from the spirituality ofx the church. I answer that they do not. Spirituality depends on the individ ual. These bring the people into the church." ' - - W.
