the weather being1 fine there and that
the entire party are enjoying their
trip.
Leo Switzer was a visitor in Ne
braska City for the day on last .Tues
day and found the Jubilee which is
en there for a week attracting large
crowds.
Mrs. W. O. Troop, son George, and
daughter. Lois, were spending last

time in getting the home of A. J.
Ross and wife painted, on account of
the very brackish weather which has
been the rule not the exception dur
ing the past few weeks. Ed is also
suffering from a very sore throat.
No one can blame Delbert Switzer
from feeling rather happy and smil
ing at any event, for the stork
brought to Lincoln a very fine
grandson, and son of their daughter,
Mrs. Floyd Mayer, which arrived a
few dn.ys since. The mother and
eon are getting along very nicely.
The babe of Mr. and Mrs? Lester
Drennen who was so seriously ill
with diptheria and who was reported

community. Robert Wunderlich Is
reported as getting along nicely at
this time.

Mrs. Lewis Ross, who has been
trubled of late by repeated at

TWO FACTS
Here are two simple facts, with
tragic implications:
Once every minute, day and night,
the fire engines dash to a burning
structure somewhere in the United
States.
Fire losses in this country are 11
times as great at Europe.
There is no Justification for our
appaling fire waste, but there is no
dearth of reasons. Building construc-
is superior in Europe with many
tion. both in design and materials
rieid protective codes. And most
important reason of all we Amer
icans are apparently the most care
less and wasteful people on earth
when it comes to fire.
A little knowledge, intelligently
used, will prevent most fires. The
dangers of unattended wiring, care
lessly disposed of waste, cigarettes
and matches "flipped" about, are
hardly understood in the average
American home. And because of this
carelessness and ignorance every
American citizen must make his an
nual contribution, directly or indi
rectly, to the fire-waste bill.
DEVELOPMENT IN AVIATION
Chicago Air mail and passenger
planes are now flying 84,656 miles
daily. 20,000 miles at night, the
American air transport association
recounts in its quarterly report of air
activities. Charted air lanes total
29,227 miles, of which 10,183 miles
are equipped with beacons and blink
ers for night flying. There are thirty-
five lines flying passengers on 178
regular schedules; nineteen of them
carry mail. Of the 1,000 planes be
ing used, practically all are cabin
planes, the largest carrying eighteen
to thirty-two passengers.
Foreign lines total 16.736 mile3 of
airway, connecting the United States
with twenty-two foreign countries.
The longest is to Buenos Aires, 5,784
miles from Miami, Fla.

NOT TO FLY THE ATLANTIC
New Yovk-r Semyon A.. ShestakoYj
chief pilot of . the Russian plane Land
of the Soviets which flew from Mos
cow to New York, Monday announced
that the Osoaviakhim, soviet aviation
society, had refused to endorse his
proposal to fly across the Atlantic
ocean on the homeward trip.
He made public a telegram from
J. S. Unschlfcht, vice chairman of
the Osoaviakhim which said: "The
presidium of the Osoaviakhim, while
greeting your readiness to fly across
the Atlantic, cannot accept your pro
posal in view of the particularly dif
ficult meteorological conditions pre
vailing at the present time of the
year."
"We consider our flight completed,"
Shestakov said.
Yields
rami
Better Than
Was Expected
Nebraska Follows Iowa and Illinois
in Production of Corn All
Crops Are Good.
Washington Yields of corn, po
tatoes, sweet potatoes, rice, beans,
peanuts and sugar beets all ran sub
stantially above earlier expectations
in the department of agriculture re
port Monday of conditions as of Nov.
1, chiefly because October weather
was more favorable than usual for
late crops.
Combining all crops, the depart
ment said, prospects averaged about
1 1-2 per cent better than they were
a month ago but chiefly on account
of dry weather during the summer,
crop yields averaged 5.8 per cent be
low those secured last year and 2.6
per cent below the average yields of
the previous ten years.
The preliminary estimate of corn
production was 2,621,000,000 bush
els or 3.7 per cent over the Oct. 1
forecast. Practically all of the im
portant corn producing states show
ed an increase over October due in
most instances to more favorable
than average weather conditions for
maturing the 'crop. The 1929 corn
crop was, however, the department
said, a relatively short one, being
7;7 per cent below- the 1928 crop.
The buckwheat crop, estimated at
11,896.000 bushels, is the smallest
since 1916. Last year's crop was
13,148.000 bushels. Low production
this year was due, the department
said, to drouth and frost in New
York and Pennsylvania, the leading
producing states.
The flaxseed crop also was classed
by the department ' as a short one.
An estimated 16,060,000 bushels will
be the smallest crop since 1922.
The potato crop, estimated at 353,
977,000 bushels is about 9,000,000
bushels more than the estimate of a
month ago but about 23.8 per cent
less than the 1928 crop.
The tobacco crop was estimated at
1,4S0,965,000 pounds compared with
1,378,139,000 pounds in 1928, or an
increase ot approximately iu,uur
000 pounds. State Journal.
SERVICES AT WILSON TOMB
Washington Standing before
Woodrow Wilson's tomb in the fifth
annual Armistive day service, IJis-
hop Freeman, of Washington cathe
dral, hailed the chief events of the
past year as triumphs of Wilson's
principles.
"In the past year, events have
moved signularly fast in the direc
tion of Woodrow Wilson's leader
ship." said Bishop Freeman. He
named the Kellogg pact signed by
fifty-eight sovereign states as a docu
ment "bringing back startlingly"
the utterances of Wilson. The visit
of Premier MacDonald he mentioned
also as furthering the Wilson ideal
fo peace.
Events which have followed Wil
son's death still eddy about him as
central figure, the bishop said, has
tening the day when "wars must
cease and conflicts of nations must
give way to the saner method Of ar
bitration."
For the first time, the Wilson com
memoration service was broadcast
n-tionally The chapel in which the
tomb is located, was crowded to cap
acity.
Music of the services consisted of
hymns of peace, sung at the funeral
of the war president. The prayer
was by his pastor at Central Pres
byterian church. Dr. James Taylor
Three wreaths were laid upon the
tomb, one from the Woodraw Wilson
foundation, one from the American
Legion, and one from the group of
personal friends and relatives who
originated the service.

Omaha Girl is
Loser on the
Stock Market
Margaret Shotwell, "Tobacco Heir
ess" Loses $1,000,000, in the
Kecent Stock Crash
Miss
Omaha
wealth
success
lost all
Margaret Shotwell, the
"tobacco heiress" whose
has been a factor in her
as v. concert pianist, has
her money, stated to be
about a million dollars, in the stock
market, and hereafter, according to
her mother, may be known as the"
"poor little rich girl."
Margaret's first fling in the mar
wet ended in disaster, her mother
said today. She bought stock on
margin heavily only short time be
fore the crash a week ago that wiped
out speculators in droves.
Must Make Living Now. .
As a result of her loss. Miss Shot
well has moved from the .suite of
rooms she occupied in a New York
hotel and is now in a single room.
"Rut she can't stay there," her
mother said, "unless she gets Fpecial
rates."
Music has been Miss Shotwell's
diversion in the past, but is now
must become her entire support, Mrs.
Shotwell aid. The 22-year-old Oma
ha girl has made a considerable
success as a concert pianist, and has
played, before distinguished aud
iences here and abroad, but her mode
of living has not been that of a
stiuggling young pianist. She has
obtained world-renowned instructors
here and in Europe, she has lived at
the best hotels, and she has traveled
much.
Money Left by John Neal.
Miss Shotwell's money came from
an inheritance nine years ago. John
Neal, a stockholder in the R. J.
Reynolds Tobacco company and a
district manager for the company,
left her 75 thousand dollars worth
of Reynolds stock when he died
about 10 years ago. He was a friend
of Margaret's father. Franklin Shot-
well, and he had heard Margaret
play when he was entertained at
the Shotwell home.
The value of this stock had in
creased enormously.
"She thought she would surprise
me," Mrs. Shotwell said. "Every
one in New York plays the market
and she was given advice on cer
tain stocks. She had plenty of
money all she needed but she
thought she'd make millions and
millions, so she could buy a coun
try home near New York and a
yacht, I guess.
Phoned for Help.
"The first I knew was a week
ago . when. . she. Jac.gp.n phoning, roe
frantically. I did all I could, but
it wasn't enough. I wouldn's risk
everything, because we, at least
must have a house to live in. It's
fr!tltflll '
"She thought she was smart ant:
could make money. I can hardly
blame her. for everyone has been
plaving the market even shop
girls.
"I don't know just what she was
playing, for I don't know anything
about the market. She had some
usement stock that was supposed
am
to make her billions, but the merger
didn't go through. Then there was
something like 'Tin Can. And she
thought she couldn't lose.
Fears Effect on Career.
Mrs. Shotwell was worried about
how Margaret might react to the
catastrophe. "She was terribly low-
over it," she said. "Then it may
affect her career. All her contracts
.or. BineH for this vear. but next
vp.ir I'm afraid, without the ela-
mour that attaches to a wealthy girl,
she mav not do so well."
But she still retained her sense
of humor. Mrs. Shotwell said. She
told her mother over the phone,
It's luck I'm dieting, because may
be I won't eat very much from now I
on.
