AMERICANISM AND BETTER CITIZENSHIP '
Good citizenship, like any ether accomplish
ment is encouraged through inspiration.
Americanization days, observed for the pur
- pose of giving American citizens renewed inspira
tion, are bounded by the birthdays of Lincoln and
Washington. Both were men of high ideals, true
and loyal Americans.
By following such examples, everyone can
help in building up their community, their state,
and their nation and can be recorded as true
Americans.

PLAN TO IHGPaSE
THEIR hlERBERSHIP
C. C. Wescott of This City is Slated
I'or Presidency At the Annual
Election Today.
I-o:n Tlnirsdays Iai'y
Tlie problem of increasing the
rr.pmbership of the Nebraska Retail
Clothi?r'ri association to its original
strength occupied the attention of
the delegates at the present conven
tion at the Uot&lFonter.elle, Omaha.
The plan suggested , by Bert Sny
der, Hutchison. Kan., member of the
Men's Apparel club cf that state, and
which met with popular approval,
v as that when they attend the state
convention they will not be beseiged
by a croud of manufacturer's sales
men anxious to "buttonhole" them
and take their orders. Snyder fav
ored a p'an whereby salesmen could
retain their sample rooms in connec
tion with the conventions.
Clifford C. Wescott. of Platts
mouth',vho presided at the session;
is slated to be elected president at
the association's annual election to
day. He introduced Earl O. Lehman.
; r?t national president of the Men's
Apparel clubs, and P.allard Dunn,
editor of the Eee. as the principal
speakers. Lehman declared that
some definite goal might be estab
lished for the clothiers to attain ?s
a means of increasing the associa
tion's membership, while Mr. Dunn
urged more action along the line
suggested in the recent republican
national campaign slogan. "Things
do not happen they are brought
about."
Among other speakers were Clarke
Powell, commissioner of the Cham
ber of Commerce, Louis Leppke, of
the Nebraska Clothing Co., and a
number of outstate clothiers.
ENDOWMENT FUND SECURED
Last Sunday marked one of the
greatest days in the history of Hast
ings College, for it saw the successful
close of its campaign to secure $400,
000 in endowment for the institution.
The final subscription to the fund,
which it was necessary to secure by
midnight Sunday in order to make
good the pledge of $135,000 from the
Rockefeller Foundation, came at
fl o'clock after a service in the Hast
ings Presbyterian church which had
lasted nearly all day. Sunday morn
ing there was yet to be pledged $15.
000 and pledges from all parts of
Something to Think About!
The predicted end of the world has passed ;
Eat we still have plenty cf bad roads!
The end of carbon trouble and
Waste of Gasoline and Oil has arrived!
MR. CAR OWNER How can you expect to thrive in
1925, when you waste from twenty to fifty per cent of
your gas and oil, besides increasing your repair bills?
You can stop this waste and save
enough to pay the gas tax when it comes,
and put the balance in your savings ac
count. You Can Do It with a Certschy fey-Pass
If your garage or service station cannot supply you, we
will. If you are not satisfied with the economies shown
after thirty days, you get your money back.

the state, and from many people,
outside of the state decreased this
amount and finally brought the total
to approximately $3,000 more than
the required amount.
The college administration Is ju
bilant over the victory, and is very
greatful to the many friends of the
school who have responded so nobly
to the cause. The college was badly
in need of endowment funds, and the
present amount places it in a very
satisfactory condition. Plans are
now being made for securing needed
buildings. Over $200. 000 has already
been pledged for the first three build
ings which will be erected at a cost
of approximately $550,000. These
buildings will include the new Pratt
Chapel, a new administration build
ing and a women's dormitory.
All workers in the campaign de
sire to express to Hastings' many
friends their deep appreciation of the
' effort which so largely contributed to
I the final success of the campaign.

EIGHTH GRADERS
ENJOY A VERY
PLEASANT TIME
Coming Freshmen Enjoy Gathering
at High School Gym Last
Eight.
From Saturday's Daily f
Last evening the members of the (
Eighth grade of the Junior High ;
school met at the high school gym
in their annual class party and the
occasion wa3 one that the young peo
ple will long very pleasantly remem
ber. The time was spent in playing a
large variety of games in which the
boys and girls who are students in
the Eighth grade entered with their
voiithfnl enthusiasm and derived a
great deal of fun. The boys and
girls were divided and contested In
giving their yells and while it was
hard to determine the winners the
girls seemed to have the greater vol
ume of noise and were given the
palm.
During the evening, Misa Marie
Eoyd entertained the young people
with a nuber of piano numbers
that added to the enjoyment of the
event.
At a suitable hour the members of
the party enjoyed some very fine re
freshments that had been prepared
and served in 'the domestic science
roon of the building which brought
to a close a very fine time.
The boys and girls had an extra
thrill with the report that the mem
bers of other classes were lurking
about the building and this necessi
tated a great deal of watchfulness on
the part of the Eighth graders.
BELIEVER IN WORLD ENDING
SHOOTS WIFE AND HIMSELF !
Monroe, Mich., Feb. 6. Express
ing fear that the world would come
to an end sometime today, and that
his property, worth ' approximato
rs 5. 000, amassed during years of
economy, would become worthless.
Karl Frederick Dazein, forty-nine, a
farmer ' living near Temperance; ten
miles from here, shot and seriously
wounded hi3 wife at their home late
yesterday and then took his own
life with the same revolver. His
wife said today that Danzeln had
become terror stricken over predic
tion of the world's ending today.
This fear heightened yesterday, she
said, when she was reading to him
parts of the book of Revelation.
When she had finished, Danzein ob
tained a revolver, told. his wife he
soon would be with her in death and
lired two shots at her, then killed
himself.
LAST SURVIVING MEMBER OF
OLD ENGLISH FAMILY DIES
San Francisco, Feb. 6. Joseph
Doods Reid, who died by gas last
night either accidentally or with sui
cidal intent, is believed by the police
and coroner's office to have been the
last surviving member of a prominent
English family ;of which the late
Sir Hugh Gilean-Reid was the head.
Lady Anne Tangye, wife of Sir Lin
coln Tangye, of Worwarkshire, Eng.,
was believed to be his sister. A news
paper clipping telling of the death of
Lady Tangye was found on a table
in the room where Reid "died.
Beside Reid on a table lay a check
for the equivalent of $175 in English
pounds, sent. by an uncle, D. Craig,
Stockton-on-Tees, England.
Mr. Car Owner:
YOUR MOTOR IS AS YOUNG
AS ITS CYLINDERS
What havs you ever done for years
except rub the pistons up and down
at the rate of 1,000 feet per minute?
New rings and pistons are a waste
of time and money unless the cylin
ders are first properly reconditioned.
There is only one correct way to do
this
Eegrinding by the wet pro
cess which produces an accurate
bore with mirror finish.
It costs $2.00 to $4.00 per
hole.
Then fit your new pistons with rings
and you have a new car so far as
cylinders are concerned.
