Pope Celebrates Occasion in a Most
Solemn Ceremony at
Vatican.
Rome. Dec. 25. The twenty
third jubilee year in the history of
Catholicism was solemly proclaimed
from the Vatican by Pope Pius XI
Wednesday. The pontiff also, with a
jewel studded gold hammer, knocked
down the holy door in the basilica
of St. Peters during a ceremony, the
brilliance and mystic picturesqm -ness
of which was brought into bold
relief because of the fact that it is
one of the few examples of stately
antiquity that has survived the rush
toward modernity.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
form of opening the holy door is
performed only once in every twenty-live
years, it was carried out yes
terday without a hitch. No single
untoward incident marred the sol
emnity and impressiveness of the
occasion.
Although comparatively few per
sons were able to witness the cere
mony, due to the size of St. Peter's
portico there were many thousands
of persons in the basilica itself to
witness the procession when it wend
ed its way afterward through the
main nave to the high altar under
the Michael Angelo dome where the
pontiff imparted the apostolitic bene
diction to the kneeling multitudes.
Other thousands assembled in the
square in front of the great mother
edifice but all they saw were foun
tains throwing their sprays of water
into the bay. They had to wait for
the pealing of the bells to know
that the door actually had fallen
and that holy year had begun.
Today was the second time that
holy year was thus ushered in since
the fall of the temporal power.

From Saturday s Daily
Last evening the choir of the First
Methodist church gave a very enter
taining musical evening at the Ne
braska Masonic Home that was very
much enjoyed by all of the members
of the Home and the staff of em
ployes thre. The choir gave thir
recital in the dining room of the
institution where the piauo had been
placed and here the Christmas carols
were sung as well as several of the
old songs and the popular lighter se
lections that made a very pleasing
impression with the aged residents
of the Home and was very much en
joyed. After the concert at the Home the
members of the choir stopped at the
residence of Mrs. Martha Wetenkamp
where they gave several numbers for
h r benefit and that of Grant Weten
kamp. both of whom are unable to
be out and enjoy the church services
and the visit of the choir there was
very much enjoyed by the family and
completed an evening of the rarest
pleasure to the choir who had served
to entertain their friends.

NEIGHBORS HAVE TROUBEE
Washington. Dec. 24. The new
year is expected to bring a vacancy
in the supreme court. Associate Jus
tice McKenna, the senior member of
the bench, having decided to resign
in the near future.
While this statement is authori
tatively made. Justice McKenna. in
view of the etiquette which prevails
In such matters, will not publicly dis
. ess his plans until his resignation is
tendered to the president.
Justice McKenna has been eligible
for retirement for more than eleven
vears, since he had already served
more than the ten years' service on
the federal bench necessary to qualify
him to retire when he reached the
;,ge of 70 on August 10. 1913. On
January 26. he will have rounded
out twenty-seven years as a member
of the supreme court, and prior to
his appointment as an associate jus
tice, he had served five years as a
federal circuit judge.
Notwithstanding his advanced age
of nearlv 82 and the long service on
the bench. Justice McKenna s health
has caused him to miss hut few ses
sions of the court in recent years.
For a time he was much troubled
ith his eves and was compelled to
wear a shade while sitting on the
lench. but he has fully recovered
from that affliction.
Should Justice McKenna adhere to
his present decision and resign, the
i suiting vacancy will be claimed by
the ninth or Pacific coast circuit. He
was appointed from California and
that circuit now has no other repre
sentative in the court. The president,
of course, will be free to select Jus
tice McKenna's successor without
reference to geographical location,
but it has often been contended that
it was desirable, as far as possible,
to have each of the nine circuits rep-
rented by a justice.

Frum Saturday's Daily
Last evening Judge William Web
er was called from the enjoyment of
his relaxation from the duties of bis
office to hasten to the city hall and
start an evening session of the po
lice court, owing to a disturbance
that had arisen between two neigh
bors on East Pearl street and which
had culminated in tiie appeal to
man's first wet.pon. the fist. The
parties who wore brought before the
court were Bert McLean and Ben
Brown, and the stories of the trouble
were slightly conflicting but the evi
dence of the struggle was so pro
nounced that the court decided to
dispense justice with an even hand
and accordingly handed each of the
parties $f and costs, amounting to
$8 which was paid and the case
closed. The trouble, it was disclos
ed, originated over the children of
the family, and. like the world war.
spread until the families were into
the affray.
The University of Nebraska today
declared itself in the open market as
a bidder for a new head coach of
Cornhusker football.
Resignation of Fred T. Dawson,
gridiron mentor at Nebraska for
the past four years, was tendered
the university board of athletics at
a special meeting and formally ac
cepted under an arrangement where
by Dawson is to continue at the Corn
husker institution as director of ath
letics and physical education.
The next step by the board was
the appointment of a special com
mittee of three which will imme
diately grapple with the problem of
procuring a successor to Dawson as
head tutor of Cornhusker gridiron
teams.
Session of the board was held
late Friday morning. Alter the ad
journment at the noon hour, the
board issued the following state
ment :
Statement by the Board
"At a meeting of the athletic board
held today. Coach Dawson requested
that he he allowed to devote his en
tire time to his present duties of di
rector of athletics and to be relieved
from the work and responsibility as:
football coach. This would allow
the director of athletics to build up
intra-mural sports and physical edu
cation for the mass of students,
which in a large measure has been
neglected in the past.
"The board acted favorably on his
request and appointed a committee
to take up the matter of procuring a
football coach."
The committee named by Chair
man R. D. Scott to seek a new coach
is composed of Fred T. Dawson.
Oeorge Holmes and L. E. Gunderson.
Speaking on behalf of this commit
tee. Mr. Holmes said:
Coach Wanted at Once
"We wish to have it heralded all
over the country that Nebraska is
seeking a capable coach. The more
publicity we can get for our wish
in this matter, the easier it may be
to get the sort of coach Nebraska
needs. We have no special candidate
or candidates in sight. The resigna
tion of Coach Dawson came suddenly
and the board has had no time in
which to conduct a canvass for his
successor. The committer will meet
soon to consider the salary question
and such candidates as may have
given intimation that they wish to
be considered. We prefer to get a
man who can come to Nebraska as
early as February, thus to be on the
ground and in charge of spring prac
tice." Director Dawson and Henry F.
Schulte. head track coach at the
university departed yesterday after
noon for the national collegiate as
sociation convention in New York.
Presumably. Mr. Dawson will devote
a portion of his time while in the
east to a hunt for coaching mater
ial, then reporting hack to his as
sociates on the special committee.
Bachman Once Mentioned
Nebraska authorities today declin
ed to discuss possible candidates for
the coaching vacancy. The name of
Charles Bachman. head coach of the
Kansas Aggies, was mentioned in
connection with the Cornhusker
coachship last winter. At that time,
Dawson's health was failing and ii
was not sure that he would be abl"
to return last fall to again take the
! reins. Coach Bachman informed the
Nebraska authorities that he would
I be glad to consider an offer, provided
I the Kansas Aggie board would re
I lease him from a contract covering
ithe present school year. The Man
thattan authorities, however, declined
ito release Bachman and no offer was
made. Dawson later recovered his
'health and came on from western
Colorado to take charge of the Corn
busker squad last September.
LOSE SHARE IN
SCHOOL FUNDS
Several Hundred Districts Forfeit
Rights to State Apportionment
Due to Own Laxity.
Several hundred school districts of
Nebraska will not share in the semi
annual apportionment for December,
amounting to 1490.000, because they
failed to comply last year with the
state law requiring nine months of
school to be maintained where an
8 -mil I levy would raise sufficient
revenue, eked out by the state's con
tribution, for a term of that length,
says the Lincoln Star.
The total amount of money thus
forfeited will be in the neighborhood
of $10,000 under this allotment of
school funds by the state. The same
districts will lose an aggregate of
115.000 more or less when the next
apportionment is made in June. Both
distributions are based upon the
school year ended in June. 1924.
There are a few districts scattered
over the state which will forfeit their
quotas of the state apportionments
now and next June because of their
employing teachers last year who did
not hold proper certificates. For the
being made on this matter and at
larger number of districts will be
penalized in the fiscal annum of
1925-6.
Counties Which Will Lose
Phelps county will probably be
deprived of more state apportionment
money at this time man any otner.
by reason of its having a greater
number of districts which maintain
ed less than nine months of school
last year.
Jefferson is another county where
the loss of revenue will be consider
able. It has 33 districts which did
not keep school going long enough
to entitle them to state apportion
ment funds. Pawnee, a somewhat
smaller county, has 15 such districts.
Nemaha and Johnson are both
represented in the list with a num
ber of districts where the minimum
school term requirement was not
met. But Otoe county adjoining them
on the north, has 100 per cent rec
ord, not a single one of its districts
falling short. In consequence of
which they will all get their allot
ments from the state.
Nearly Half a MlIEon
The December apportionment as
certified to the state superintendent
by State Treasurer Robinson is ?4fl0,
951. About $6,000 of this will be
distributed to districts containing
state school lands in lieu of taxes
which would be collected on such
acreage if it were privately owned.
One fourth of the remainder will be
divided equally among all districts
in the state entitled to share, and the
other three-fourths in the ratio of
their school enumeration.
Principal sources from which the
'apportionment fund was derived are
j as follows: Interest on bond invest
j ments of permanent school funds.
,$241,606: rentals on leased school
hands. $189,381; interest on uncom
ipleted school land sales. $44,988; in
surance licenses. $13,646.

We bid 1925 welcome because we
believe it brings new opportunities.
Profiting by the experience of the
past we know we can do better in
the future.
May it be a good year for you
good for money-making, happiness
and service.
John Bauer & Co.
