DAVID AS SAUL'S AEMOE BEARER
Saul said unto his servants, Pro
vide me now a man that can play
well, and bring him to me. And
David came to Saul, and stood be
fore him: and he loved him greatly,
and he became his armor bearer.
I Samuel 16:17-21.

Despite the fact New York has
barred chickens from several states.

:o:
The only proof existing that the
weather man was once a boy is when
he sends fine coasting weather.
:o:
A man may be blue and recover
cheerfulness. He may be green ar.d
gain experience. But if he is yellow
e never will get over it.
:o:
Whether the coal man or the ice
nan makes the most money is still '
a bone of contention, but our guess
for the present is that the coal man
does.

A school teacher has been given a
prize of $13,500 for her first novel.

We regrei that we could not have
met our old friend. Senator James A.
Reed of Missouri In Omaha Tuesday.
A friend of many years and a demo

-:o:
Those optimists who left the snow
on their sidewalks in the expectation
that it would melt and save them the
labor of shoveling it probably are
losing their faith in idealism.

One imagines young Bobby Coo

much money as your brother."
:o:
The new poultry disease has been
identified as the "European fowl
pest." The next step is to isolate
the germ and patent a serum. We
may soon have to be vaccinating our
chickens.
:o:
Two rival Minnesota towns ar
ranged a debate. On the data set for
the affair the band, mayor, etc.,
turned out for the big occasion. And
just as the first speaker stated, it
was learned that both sides had
taken the affirmative so the de
bate was called off. It's the first
time we've ever heard of anybody
wanting an argument and not being
able to get it.
:o:
Radio, to most people, is an inven
tion of tbe last few years. Yet it is
more than 23 years since Marconi re
ceived the first wireless signal broad
cast across the Atlantic from Eng
land. Six years before, he had built
his first practical wireless telegraph.
More than a quarter of a century has
been devoted, by an army of genius.
to bringing your receiving set to its
present stage of development. And
it's still in babyhood.
:o:
"What did we do for amusement
before we had the movie and auto?"
people often ask. For one thing, we
worked longer hours and did not
have so much spare tiiye. Many
6pent their evenings with a bottle at
the poor man's club on the corner.
Prohibition paved the way for radio,
mah jongg, cross-word puzzles and
an endless chain of similar diver
sions to follow. We'll have a lot of
time killing fads as years slip by
and people seek new substitutes for
alcoholic exhilaration.
PEE YEAS VS ADVABCE
Nothing is a misery unless our
weakness apprehends it so.

:o:
Most everybody's idea of safety
first is for the other fellow to take
all the precautions.
:o:
In the old days the word simple
meant foolish. Now It is used only
to make frocks cost more.
:o:-
The objection to most highbrow
literature is its pompous way of say

Christmas brought many electrical
gifts. They can do everything by
electricity now, except pay the bills.

It is claimed that worry kills some
people, but the people ought to be

If the nations are too poor to pay
their debts, where do they get the
money for all this excellation propa
ganda? :o:-
Nature is wise. In arranging
mortal's hinge she knew he would
have little occasion to pat himself
cn the back.
:o:
We never dreamed that Judge Jes

ley till we saw his picture in the
Omaha Bee.
:o:
If the treasury department really
wants to make silver dollars popular
it should insist on their meeting the
people half way.
:o'.
All London is agitated about a
picture painted by a grocer. London
should ,eee some of the pictures
painted by an American real estate
agent.
A judge rules that parents can't
have children and stills in the house
at the same time.' That's tough for
some of the children, just at this
time of year.
:o:
If the incoming governor does as
well as the outgoing governor, in the
administration of the affairs of state,
the people of Nebraska will have no
occasion to complain.
:o:
And along come the 1925 alman
acs to remind us that another quar
ter of the century is gone and we
haven't done half A3 much as we ex
pected to in the- time.
:o:
One of life's little Ironies is found
In the -case of Americans who some
times refer to themselves as "wage
slaves," but who own their own
homes and keep their own flivvers.
:o:
A Pennsylvania man has succeeded
in engraving 144 words on the head

William J. Bryan has applied for
membership tn the American Asso

devoted his life to fighting.
:o: 1
A reformer, name not mentioned
by the Houston Tost, our authority,
says that 999 persons out of every
1,000 have indecent minds. Which
is no news to many a newspaper and
magazine circulation manager.
:o: '
Get together
a crowd of 10,000
average Americans.
In a year 123
of them will die. That's the mortal
ity rate shown in the latest checkup
by Uncle Sam. Montana has the
lowest checkup rate, only 87 In 10,
000 dying in a year.. Rival cities
and states, Inspecting figures, will
make a lot of foolish claims. ' In
some places mortality Is high be
cause so many invalids go there to
die. The time of death is, to con
siderable extent, determined in
youth. To a lesser degree it is regu
lated dv nerenity neiors we are
born.
THE AUTO TAG
Plainly and clearly, the state, in
giving permission to drive an auto
mobile, through the issuance of an
auto license tag, does not intend to
give the recipient permission to do
anything that is not right, anything
that is not lawful.
Through the Issuance of automo
bile license tags the state takes it
for granted that car owners who re
ceive these tags, this license to oper
ate their cars on the public streets
and highways, will use every precau
tion to avoid accidents, that they
will comply with the state, city and
county laws pertaining to the opera
tion of motor vehicles, and, at the
same time, providing for the safety
of pedestrians and of others who are
entitled to lawful use of streets and
public roads. Nevertheless, there
are thousands of those who receive
these tags, and display them on their
cars, or trucks, who seem to think
that the license gives them the lib
erty to do what they please in the
matter of operating their cars. It
does nothing of the sort. It imposes
responsibility, first to be careful;
second, to be reasonable; third, to be
courteous, always.
These are not stringent observ
ances that the state exacts in return
for the use of the streets and high
ways, by means of automobiles and
trucks. The license tag 13 issued in
good faith. In too many instances
it is accepted and used in a manner
to indicate that the user can do what
he, or she, pleases, can injure other
persons more or less seriously or
even kill them, if so they are pleased
to do, and as is being done every day,
everywhere. For saying this, it is
reliable that since January 1, last,
678,000 persons were injured by
automobiles, one person out of every
157 people in round numbers, and
assuming that the population of the
United States is 110,000,000. Worse
than that, the record shows that 22,
600 people were killed since January
of this year, on public thorough
fares, the victims of automobile acci
dents, very many of which accidents
would not have occurred had reason
and common sense actuated the driv
ers of the slaughter cars. They can
not be called anything else.
In spite of everything that is be-
ng done and said, the slaughter and
the maiming of innocent people, of
all ages, goes on. There are too
many who regard possession of an
automobile license tag as official per
mission to run down other cars, and
pedestrians, as may be seen fit. It
gives no such permission and the of
fenders know it. If they do not,
then the state, or other official au
thority, should recall the tag until
such time as reckless car drivers
earn that an auto tag is not a li
cense to commit muraer or man
slaughter, or even to Inflict injury.
:o:
BILLS! BILLS! BILLS!
If it were not for bills some people
would not know when the first of a
month came around.
A man does not mind for his wife
to buy things it is the paying of
the bill that causes him to grow
bald.
Paj-ing bills is like trimming pet
corns it gives you relief for a while
but they soon come back.
If there were no bills the postman
would carry lighter bags, the col
lectors would save more shoe leather
and the people in general more
peace.
The only time most people like
bills is when they are sending them
to the other fellow or the other fel
low is paying them.
The only bills all of us like are
those that are paid. The bills them
selves do not worry us it is what
thev stand and call for that does
that.
Mother and daughter do not pull
father's leg they just invite a col
lector to do that by running up a
few bills.
Bills are run up by the family
while poor father i3 run down pay
ing them.

One manufacturer of toys iu New
York uses 2.000,000 feet of lumber
every year, and the total value of the
industry in all parts of the United
States reaches S35.000.000. , -it Is
stated. This is published in the hope
that it may bo some consolation to
the head of the house who thinks he
is the only one that has suffered an
empty pocketbook this Christmas.

J The number of Americana who
'died In 1924 was 30,000 less than
the year before, leading insurance
companies. The death rate of nearly
all leading diseases is declining. In
surance statistics show that only two
forms of death claimed more victims
in 1924 than In 1923. These two
are suicides and auto deaths. The
auto, they estimate, killed 17.750
during the year, as compared with
j 16,450 in 1923 A good New.Year's
resolution is to drive more carefully
i and walk more watchfully.

THIS RACE OF OURS
Dr. John Harvey Kellogg, famous
dietician and superintendent of Bat
tle Creek Sanitarium, ruined Christ
mas for a good many persons with a
full page article in the New York
World of Sunday before Christmas.
In his eight columns, Dr. Kellogg
said that we are fast on the road to
becoming a race of mental, physical
and moral degenerates, and all be
cause we do not exercise proper care
in selecting our food.
Other scientists, the doctor wrote,
have given us up as a bad job and
"abandoned all hope of and endless
future for the human race." If it is
really true that distinguished sci
entists lay awake nifchts worrying
and fretting because the human race
has only a few billion years more on
this planet, then we are willing to
agree that insanity is on the in
crease. The doctor himself does not share
this pessimistic view. "Those who
see race extinction ahead," he paid,
"evidently take it for granted that
the entire human race is going to
continue drifting downward as the
civilized races are now doing, but I
am convinced that this is an error."
In other words, the doctor be
lives that the human race is going to
adopt a standardized diet, consisting
largely of spinach,' raisins, prunes
and milk in order to keep mankind
from being cut off 4,500,000,000
years from today.
Personally, we don't agree with
him. To our mind, an "endless fut
ure" for man is about the most ter
rible thought that ever found its
way through our skull, and we have
no idea that any considerable num
ber of people are going to stop smok
ing and eating pies in order to insure
it. We believe that posterity de
serves some consideration, but when
a man makes his plan for as ninny as
ten generations yet to be born, wo
think he has done his duty. Neither
Dr. Kellogg nor anyone else hns any
right to expect him to arrange all
the details of living for his three
millionth grandson.
One of the horrid "facts" thrown
out by the doctor is that the stature
of American men has declined 2 1-8
inches since the war between the
States. Even this didn't excite us.
No one with a grain of philosophy
would worry about stature after he
has reached our age, and evlrn if it
could be changed, we don't believe
that a couple of inches one way or
the other, would make matters any
easier for us.
The week before Dr. Kellogg'3
obituary of the race appeared, an
other celebrated, immorta authority
(his name evades us for the moment)
proved that clean scientific living
-has added twenty years to the aver
age lifetime since the war between
the states. Ah, well, if the doctor
can get any kick out of saving the
race, let him go to it. We have
other things to attend to.
:o:
SENATOR NORRIS
The crisis came when .Norris de
livered a great speech, in which he
handled President Coolidge without
gloves, as follows:
"If the administration measure,
fathered here by the senator from
Alabama, shall be enacted into law,
it will ultimately be recognized as a
rape upon the treasury of the Unit
ed States, a gold brick to the Ameri
can farmer, and the giving of a con
cession of untold value to some cor
poration whose identity has not yet
been disclosed a concession so
great it will make Teapot Dome look
like a pinhead. Doheny and Sinclair
will soon realize that they were
only pikers when they spent hun
dreds of thousands of dollars for cor
rupting public officials. Oh, Presi
dent Coolidge! Just after having
received such a mighty vote of con
fidence from the American people,
how can you give the power of your
commanding position to this pro
gram?" :o:-
Mail order houses and retail mer
chants for years have fought each
other. Two distinct methods of
salesmanship have been involved in
the struggle. The ultimate outcome
apparently is going to be a consoli
dation of the rival sales systems.
That is often the case opposing
forces meet eachrther half way.
Sears, Roebuck & Co. will open a
chain of retail stores in leading
cities. It already has nine million
customers and expects the stores to
attract three million mor0.
:o:
County Judge Duxbury will be
gin his work next week. He has the
best wishes of the Journal. He is
perhaps the youngest judge in the
state with a bright future before
him. ' He will make good Just the
same!
:o:
The son of Grand Duke Cyril ia be
ing educated to become an emperor.
It would seem a waste of time. Did
not the thought occur that this
training will prepare him equally
well to become a Janitor.
t PUBLIC LIBRARY IIOTES
In order that uninformed citizens
may know the extent that our library
is being used it might be well to
give the following record of the
month of November: Number of
books exchanged, 2302. Number or
new borrowers and registrations, 38.
Of the books taken out, 1286 were
adult fiction; 146 adult nan fiction;
638 Juvenile fiction; 188 Juvenile
non fiction. Daily average, 83.
Smallest daily circulation 26. Largest
daily circulation, 162. Increase over
Oct. 203. The librarians nave Deen
kept very busy through the holidays
as the book exchange has been very
heavy, having 168 exenanges one aay.
The Library is in receipt daily of
the Congressional Record. This
makes it possible for those whose
minds are politically inclined to keep
ia close touch with the affairs of
our government at Washington.
The library board is very appre
ciative of the efforts of the P. E. O.
in giving a book shower for the libra
ry. All such interest helps to make
ours a better library.
There was a large demand for
Christmas plays this year, which
greatly exceeded Jthe supply that the
library has on nand. Many of our
schools that celebrated the Christmas
season with exercises by their pupils
came to. the library for help- for
such programs.
The annual story hour season will
begin Jan. 14th, and be given every
week thereafter. Miss Mildred Wal
ker wil be in charge of this fascina
ting department for children instruc
tion. You will always find a cordial
welcome at the library and a ready
help in any line of reading you wish
to look up. We are never too old to
learn and you might find many new
interests by resolving this new year
to read a book a week. Try it. It
might increase ones vocabulary even
more than the cross word puzzles.
KOBE JOBS FOR THE TRACTOR
More-jobs for the tractor to do on
the farm will be the subject of an
addifss by Carl Tefft of Avoca, at
the Farm Equipment association
meeting during organized agricul
ture week January 6 to 9. Mr. Tefft
is a graduate of the University of
Nebraska and has been adding prac
tical exierienee to the engineering
training he received at the univers
ity, lie v.'ill review the the paper
given by Professor McCeun, princi
pal speaker, at the meeting. of the
national engineering organization
he'd last July and in addition will
give his own experience and lead
the discussion.
The other big feature of the farm
equipment program deals with elec
tricity on the farm. Many inquiries
have been coming to the agricultural
college about the power in Nebraska
creeks, indicating, the college says,
that many farmers are thinking of
generating electrical power neces
sary to light and operate their farms.
( "W. White of Chadron will tell
those at the meeting his experience
using his creek as a source of power.
What electricity has done for
rural communities will be discussed
by John Schmidt of Wahoo, and Sam
Martin of Dannebrog.
The morning meeting of this or
ganization on January 8 will be fol
lowed by the tractor trouble shoot
ing contest, the womens' nail driv
ing 'contest and the blacksmlthing
contest.
W0LLEN-C0LLISTER
On the evening of December 24,
1924, Miss Violetta Wollen and Mr.
Victor Collister were united in mar
riage at the home of Rev. C. O.
Stuckenbruch of the First Christian
church of Council Bluffs, Iowa.
The bride is the only daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. A. V. Wollen of Weep
ing Water. She is a graduate of the
Weeping Water high school and has
tsught school at Whitman, Nebraska,
but for the past year and a half has
been working in Omaha, for the M.
E. Smith company and the Omaha
National Pank, where she is still em
ployed. The groom is the youngest son of
Mrs. Emma Collister, also of Weep
ing Water. He has been with the
Western Union Telegraph company
for almost three years.
The bride's gown was a medium
green satin and she wore a corsage
of pink sweet peas.
The groom wore the conventional
dark blue.
The happy couple were accompan
ied to Council Bluffs by their friends,
Miss Eva Marble and Mr. Thomas
Noonan, both of Omaha. They will
make their home in Omaha for the
present. Weeping Water Republi

From Thursday's Dallv
Henry Born, one of the prominent
residents of the precinct, is confined
to his home as the result of a very
serious accident that occurred yes
terday. Mr. Born was hauling a load
of wheat to this city to market and
as he was traveling along the high
way a short distance from his home,
the horses that were hauling the
wagon became frightened and started
to run, throwing Mr. Born out of
the wagon and injuring him very
severely as he lit on his shoulders
and suffered a dislocation of the left
shoulder. The injured member was
dressed by Dr. P. J. Flynn and the
patient amde as comfortable as possi
ble under the circumstances and at
last reports was doing just as well
as possibly could be expected, altho
the injured shoulder still gives him a
great deal of pain. It is hoped that
he may soon recover form the effects
of the injury and be able to resume
his usual activities. -
In Toledo, O., a bear attacked four
prohibition agents. We hate to, but
we must say there was something

NERVES ALL UNSTRUNG
Plattsmouth Folks Should Find the
Cause and Correct It.
Are you all worn out? Feel tired,
nervous, half-sick? Do you hare a
constant backache; sharp twinges of
pain, too, with dizzy spells and an
noying urinary disorders? Then
there's cause for worry and more
cause to give your weakened kidneys
prompt help. Use Doan's Pills a
stimulant diuretic to the kidneys.
Plattsmouth folks recommend
Doan's for just such troubles.
Mrs. P. A. McCray, 615 South 6th
street, Plattsmouth. says: While
doing my work I became tired and
felt weak and sharp pains through
my back put me right down When
I stooped I became dizzy and black
specks blurred my sight. I felt ner
vous and all out of sorts. My kid
neys didn't act right, either. I used
Doan's Pills and one box from Wey
rich & Hadraba's drug store cured
me of the trouble."
Mrs. McCray is only one of many
Plattsmouth people who have grate
fully endorsed Doan's Pills. If your
back aches if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney
remedy ask distinctly for DO AN S
PILLS, the same that Mrs. McCray
had the remedy backed by home
testimony. 60 cents at all dealers.
