A friend cf Morris Jacobs rclatcH
that a ttw evenings ago this younr
man was traveling from Omaha tc
Nebraska City via Plat :sm :uth. and
because he didn't a stop sign
and it was after 2 in tho morning
he just kept going. That is he kept
going until a man with a shield call
ed "stop!" Morris stopped, and when
the man got up close he saw it wasn't
a shield but a badge.
"Where do you think you are, in
Omaha?" said the man. "Can't you
read that sign?"
"Xo sir. Yes sir, I didn't see it
sir have four or five of Mr. Da
vidson's cigars, sir."
Morris finally convinced the badger
that he was meek and mild, and as
full of guile as a 5-year-old child
so the badger let him go!

MOISTURE HELPS A LOT
From Friday's Daily
This morning when the Platts
mouth residents awoke to face leaden
skies and a drizzling rain it was sure
a grand and glorious feeling. The
early spring rains left a large amount
of moisture in the soil but this haF
been soaked dee'p into the earth and
left the surface decidedly dry and
very hard for the farmers and gar
deners to carry on their work. In the
past week need of moisture was much
marked and the farmers 'had begun
to see the need soon of rain if 'there
was to be any corn crop or gardens
in this section.
The average person has the habit
of complaining about the weather,
when it rains they want dry weather
ard when it Is dry they want rain
and there you are. However the
weather man generally sees that this
DOrtion of Whraslf.1 Jhaa ahnul the
J right kind of weather to produce a
Igood crop and help feed the world.

Improvement
of the Roads in
Western Cass
Vicinity of Eagle to Have Secondary (
Roads fixed Up in the Rest
of Shape.
Last Friday afternoon County Com
missioner Fred Gorder came down
from Weeping Water and in com
pany with a party, including the
editor of The Beacon, made a trip
over the rural roads in the vicinity
of Eagle for the purpose of locating
the most needed work. The object
of the inspection at this time is to
have the work done early in the sea
son so it will be well packed before
next winter. For many years the
policy has been to do road work dur
ing the farmers dull season late in
the fall, with the result that the
roads are left in a miserable condi
tion just when needed most. Mr.
Gorder was heartily in favor of our
plan to work tmt a program for early
improvement especially of the mail
and school routes and readily agreed
to lend every assistance possible. It
is expected that some of the farmers
even at personal expense in ousy
times, will assist in pulling their
neighborhood out of the mud by
placing teams and men on the work.
All the really needed work cannot
be done this year, but Mr. Gorder,
after viewing the situation, will know-
how to handle it to the best advan
tage. There are several places where
small steel bridges will be substituted
for prsent drains, and these drains i
placed elsewhere. Some grading will
be done in the worst places, and the
drainage looked after so the water
will not stand in the road. He in
formed us that he would have a crew
at work on these places by the loth
of June, and that this program of
more substantial work properly dis
tributed, and with the co-operation
of adjacent farmers, would in a few
years place our roads in fine condi
tion. Eagle Beacon.

GOVERNOR PROCLAIMS DAY
NEHAWKA HAS ROBBERS
From Saturday's Pally
Some time during the night Tues
day. $25.00 was stolen from the
Willis Cash Grocery. Mr. Willis had
$48.00 in bills and placed the mon
ey in a drawer among other papers
during the day. Forgetting about
the money, he locked up the store
that evening and the next morning
the money was gone.
Whoever took the money evidently
knew where it was put and was fa
miliar with the store. Entrance was
gained to the store by breaking the
lock on the cellar door and entering
the store from the basement. As
only $25.00 of the $48.00 was taken,
it is thought that the job was tne
work of some youngster who did not
have use for so much money.
rivdc Duckworth sleeps above the
store and it is thought the money
was taken after Mr. Willis closed up
for the evening and before Clyde re
tired for the night. Nehawka En
terprise.
CLAIMS HE WAS SLAVE
Governor AdamMcMullen issued r
proclamation Friday setting aside
June 14, as Flag day. The proclama
tion follows:
The flag, our star spangled banner
was born into the family of nations
June 14, 1777, by act of the con
tinental congress. The colonies, fight
ing for independence from the moth
er country, could hardly be called r
nation in the technical sense, but by
final success this embryo nation dates
from the great declaration, almost a
year before the adoption of a flag.
What a transformation in that
brief span in the life of a nation. The
4,000,000 have grown to 115,000,000.
From being among the weakest it has
grown to be one of the strongest na
tions. Its preeminence rests on the
fact that the power or the gcverr
ment is in its citizens. The flag p;
claims the divine right of liberty 5
man. rower unuer tne nag cannot. l.
inherited. It must be the free-choice
of a free people. The flag stands for
the inalienable right of the pepole tc
be their own rulers. The flag is the
symbol of soverignty, the sign of au
thority, the guarantee of liberty and
justice. It has ever been imagination
to the poet, wisdom and eloquence
to the statesman, ambition to the stu
dent, inspiration to the scholar, hope
and happiness to all who labor for
home and country. It is dedicated to
the peace of righteousness.
Now, therefore, I, Adam McMullen.
governor of Nebraska, call upon all
the people of the state to do honor
to the flag on its one hundred and
fiftieth birthday. Let it be displayed
in all public buildings, on the streets
of our cities and at the homo of our
citizens. Children should be told its
history and taught to love the flag
as the emblem of cur liberties.
Done at Lincoln, tne capital, this
3d day of June, 1927.

Governor.
