Mrs. Moore and the little babe.

quetters at the Baptist ladies' dinner

got a good dinner and one that was
greatly enjoyed. In the evening they
ate with the ladies of the Christian
church at Murray, getting another
excellent meal, and with that pace
they certainly could not complain of
not being well fed. The following
day they were guest9 of friends near
Mynard, which also added to their
good keeping.
Some of the people of Union and
vicinity were visiting in Plattsmouth
on last Sunday night and one was
agreeable to staying for a few days

in Union distributing gravel on the
highway, have effected a lease with
Joseph Lindsay whereby they will
during the coming summer use much
of the gravel which is deposited in

say. This will make the building of
good roads in this vicinity much eas
ier and will also make the labor mar
ket in Union and vicinity more ac
tive. New Manager for Store

A. L. Becker as manager of the store.

tion and serve the people well.

John Barleycorn is dead but he left
a bootlegacy. Exchange.
"Followine the news of last week
that the atom is divisible comes a
dispatch from Chicago that skirts
are to be shorter and tighter this
winter." I
!
Regardless however of the short-1
ness or tightness of skirts, or the di-j
visibility of an atom, or the legacy
of John Barleycorn (may his soul
rest in peace) the most serious prop
osition confronting Cass county is the
graveling of her terrible, muddy, slick
sloppy, rutty country roads, and as
soon as it is appreciated what a toll
these roads take from all of us, and
especially the rural communities fort
excess gas, depreciation, and loss of!
time, and nervous energy, there
should be a howl go up that will
sound like a real revolution. I
If we den't hollerr.you bet we'll
never get heard! I
Wish some of you victims that
struggle into market over these rot
ten mud roads, would come in and
tell us what you think of them. We
can go in the back, room and lock the
door so you can express yourself
freely.
You might also figure, how much is
a good road worth to you
The American, is the most patient
and most abused mortal in the world.
Aside from letting his wife boss him
to-death he'll for years get stuck in
the mud; pay out good dollars for
skid chains; slip off into the gutter;
spend quarts and buckets of gasoline
on bum roads; wear out his car; lose
his time; and take It for granted.
Next time you try to climb that
long steep mud-slick hill without
chains 'cause you forgot and left 'em
at home, how much would a good
gravel road mean to you then?
It may be sweet glorification dying
while praying but if we get good
roads, we'll have to quit praying:
start cussing, and perhaps something
will begin to go bang!
Some folks and some places have
honor thrust upon them. Marysville,
Kansas, we take to be such a place.
That city has the first merchandise
display store, fresh from the over, red
hot, for Montgomery Ward Co! No,
sweetie, we can't buy anything here,
but just inspect things, and send away
for something to be like something
that we inspected to -be something.
And the Montgomery Ward pays
Marysville the following crushing
compliment "There are thousands of
our valued cvustomers living within
30 miles of Marysville etc, etc."
A "Valued Customer" for a mail
order house always makes me think
of an Omaha street car "Pay as you
enter." It should be "pray as you
enter." Did you ever try this scheme
"Dear Montgomerysearrowspuvk
Co.: Enclosed order is for your Bug
proof Castiron Sheets and pillow tub
ing; please send return mail. Will
sen you check as soon as I have pick
ed my corn, or sold my taters." Try
it once you'd be 'sprised at how
"valued" you are!
Many a man of mediocre talents has
reached the highest pinnacle of suc
cess, by his LOYALTY.
All-weather roads are a good in
vestment. Nebraska can't afford to
be without them.

The Nebraska Good Roads Associa
tion is working for the construction
of county roads, as well as the state
hiway system mid is requesting that
the gasoline tax be increased one cent
per gallon, all of this increase to be
used on the county roads.
From fifty to one hundred per cent
of the money expended for road con
struction and maintenance goes di
rectly or indirectly for labor.
In many localities, noticeably Otoe
and Sarpy counties, the farmers rec
ognizing the value of gravel roads by
their farms are putting their money
into it as an investment.
Poor roads are laying an enormous
burden upon the people of the state
and the nation. A burden many imes
greater than the so-called good road
taxes.
