ciated luncheon.
SEDUCES CWA PAYROLLS
About $100,000 reduction in Ne
braska's weekly CWA and CWS pay
rolls was forecast by Federal Agent
Haynes as a result of orders for a
drastic scaling down of working
hours on the federal relief projects.
Haynes said the payroll for the
week ending Jan. 11 was ?3S0,2SS
and he estimated it would be $101,
000 less for the work week begin
ning Friday. Figures are not yet
available for the week ending Thurs
day but he expected an increase over
the preceding week and so forecast
this week's reduction would be only
about $S9,000 under the week ending
Thursday.
Telegrams were in the hands of
CWA officials in every taction of the
mate- ordering them to reduce the
maximum working hours on projects
within cities of more ihan 2,500
population to 24 a week and else
where to 15 hours a week. All cler
ical, supervisory and professional
workers were ordered limited to 30
hours a week with proportionate sal
ary readjustments.
Haynes said he had been forced to
apply the ruling specifically to where
the work projects are located because
there is no machinery available to
tell where men's homes are. Work
ers on Lincoln's municipal airport
project for instance come from Lin
coln chiefiy but will be limited to
15 hours a week because the project
is outside the city in rural territory.
Marshall Jones, chief CWA engi
neer, and J. D. Mehr.cr, statistician,
were preparing estimates on what
materials will be necessary to com
plete scheduled CWA work in this
state as a result of the orders that
no more materials be purchased with
out approval from Washington.

E00SEVELT BALL
The Roosevelt ball to be held at
the Legion building January 30th,
affords a splendid opportunity to do
good and have a good time on money
spent.
The proceeds from this ball are to
be used to expand the work already
started at Warm Springs, Georgia,
with a view to establishing similar
institutions in other parts of the
country.
President Roosevelt, who has been
greatly helped by the Warm Springs
treatment is head of the governing
board of this institution. Infantile
raralysis is considered to be one of
the most serious diseases. About 10
per cent of these casus prove fata!
and at least CO per cent are left
crirplcs.
To be conservative, infantile
paralysis costs this country each year
in impaired earning; and buying
power some three hundred million
dollars, and dees net represent tlie
millions cf dollars spent by these af
flicted people in their fight for recov
ery. About 100 cases were reported m
Nebraska last year.
Warm Springs, Georgia, is to be
the foundation and if enough money
is realized, other curt centers will
bo started.
Everyone who buys a ticket for this
ball can feel that he has a definite
part in furthering a campaign against
infantile paralysis.

High Scouting
Honor Awarded
to Local Boy
Janes Rolertscn, 2nd, Advanced to
Eagle Bank Large Number
at Court of Honor.
From Thursday's Dnily
There was a very pleasing attend
ance at the court of hener of the
Nebraska City district, Boy Scouts of
America, r. eld here last evening at
the American Legion building. In
audition to the large local attendance,
there were delegations of S;outers
and Scouts here from numerous out
side towns, Peru furnishing the larg
est delegation, with Louisville, where
a new troop has just been organized
under American Legion sponsorship,
running them a close second. There
was also a good delegation present
from Nebraska City, with scattering
groups present from other towns over
the district.
Lee E. Harbottle, of Lincoln, as
sistant Scoutmaster of the Cornhusker
council, of which this district is a
part, was accompanied from Lincoln
by Frank Chase, a new field man who
has just been added to the Cornhus
ker's executive personnel to handle
the increasing duties that have made
the work of the council over an area
of some fifty-five counties difficult to
maintain. Both of these gentlemen
were guests at an informal dinner at
the Searl S. Davis home preceding the
convening of the advancement board
at 7 o'clock to pass on advancement
and merit award requests.
The court of honor ceremonies be
gan at 8 o'clock with a brief program
in charge cf Dr. G. L. Taylor, ad
vancement member of the local troop
committee and included several num
bers by members of the local Scout
troop. Dr. Taylor also officiated over
the award portion of the program in
the absence of M. R. Shrader, of Ne
braska City, chairman of the district
advancement board, who was unable
to come due to a school conference.
Mr. Shrader is superintendent of
schools at Nebraska City.
The program opened with signal
ing of a message of welcome to the
parents and friends with Scout John
Rishel sending and Scout Billy Evers
interpreting the message. John Ken
neth Bestor, a new' recruit in the
Tenderfoot ranks of the local troop,
followed with two humorous readings.
Next on the program was a violin
duet by Scouts Wallace Terryberry
and Billy Evers.
The Scout drum and bugle corps
was next called into action and under
the direction of their leaders. Messrs.
Anton Bajeck and James Farnham,
gave a splendid exhibition of the var
ious beats they have mastered as well
as the standard army bugle calls.
Mr. Harbottle gave a brief state
ment of the scope of activities of the
Cornhusker council and explained the
bi-monthly holding of courts of honor
at different towns over the respective
districts.
The conferring of awards was next
in order and nine Tenderfoot Scouts
marched onto the stage to receive the
advancement to second class Scouts.
Six of this number were from Peru,
the remeir.ing three being Warren
Reed, Richard Yelick and James
Webb, of Plattsmouth. Badges were
presented by E. II. Wescott, long ac
tive in the promulgation of Scouting
in this community.
There were two candidates for ad
vancement to first class Scouts, Billy
Evers, of Plattsmouth, and Loren
Dutton. of Peru. These badges were
presented by G. M. Corum, superin
tendent of schools of Louisville and
a member of the Louisville troop com
mittee. Ten merit baCge candidates were
next in line, some of them qualifying
for as mans as six merit certificates.
Among this number were Billy Evers,
of Plattsmouth, leathercraft; Billy
Rosencrans and Bob Taylor, of Platts
mouth, cycling. The certificates were
presented by George Bramrr.er, of
Louisville, the father of three Scouts,
one of them the honor Scout of the
Louisville troop a year ago.
Six Star Scouts were In line for
that distinguished advancement, sev
eral of them Nebraska City'bo3rs. The
one local boy in this group was
Stephen Davis. These badges were
presented by Fred Kuwitzky, of Ne
braska City, father of one of the boys
in the group, and an active Seouter
of that town.
The high honor of Scouting awards
at this court was conferred upon
James Robertson, 2nd, of Plattsmouth
that of the Eagle Scout award. It
was pointed out by Mr. Harbottle
that this is the one award the coun
cil office is unable to pass upon, and
approval for conferring it is had only
after the credentials of the applicant
have been passed upon by national
Scout headquarters.
Hilt Wescott was called upon to
make this award the sixth of its

kind to be earned by local Toys Gur
ing all the years Scouting has been
maintained here. With the parents
present cm the stage, he spoke of the
long and arduous pathway a boy must
have trod in Scouting circles to ar
rive at this high pinacle of distinction
and faded from the picture as he re
quested the mother to pin this badge
upen the coat lapel of James, in a
very touching scene.
Sccuter awards were also present
ed to three adults who have qualified
as assistant scoutmasters by attend
ing a complete course of instruction,
including the hike and cooking tests
participated in the final day. Among
this number was Aulton Roland, a
former Plattsmouth Scout, who has
now passed the age limits for Scouts
into the realm of adult Scouters and
has been named as an assistant Scout
master of the local troop.
Just before the meeting was ad
journed, Elmer Webb, chairman of
the Legion troop committee here, out
lined the present set-up that provides
for an active committee from spon
soring organizations, together with
a report ci progress on tne bcout
cabin at Camp Wheeler and the finan
cial problems that must be met to
keep Scouting alive in Plattsmouth.
It is interesting to note that where
as this community's annual prorate
ment for maintaining the old Nem
aha area office at Nebraska City was
close to $200, by now combining
with the larger Cornhusker council,
all the benefits heretofore enjoyed
will be available at a cost of but $90
per year, and that last year's unpaid
dues have been canceled, leaving only
the fiscal year 193 4 to reckon with.
Enrollment in the local Legion
sponsored troop is now 40, or eight
in excess of the maximum strength,
and additional applications being re
ceived, making imperative the form
ing of a second and perhaps a third
troop in the near future. The big
problem in that line is securing of
leaders who are willing to devote
time to the work and sponsorship by
local organizations whose members
will actively participate in the Scout
program.
The per capita cost to the national
organization and Cornhusker council
is figured on a town's population and
remains the same whether one or a
half dozen troops be maintained, so
the opportunities in this field are un
limited. Scoutmaster Raymond Larson and
Assistant Scoutmaster Russell Reed
er were called up from among the
audience to take a bow for their long
and faithful service in turning out
each Monday night to work with the
local troop.
Peru Gets Next Court
Following adjournment, the dis
trict business meeting was held, pre
sided over by Mr. Harbottle, and it
was voted unanimously to accept the
invitation of Peru to entertain the
next court of honor on March 21st.
Why o
Liquid Laxatives
are Back in Favor
The public is fast returning to the use
of liquid laxatives. People have
learned that the properly prepared
liquid laxative will bring a perfect
movement without any discomfort
at the time, or after.
The dose of a liquid laxative can
be varied to suit the needs of the
individual. The action can thus be
regulated. A child is easily given the
right dose. And mild liquid laxatives
do not irritate the kidneys.
Doctors are generally agreed that
senna is the best laxative for every
body. Senna is a natural laxative. It
does not drain the system like the
cathartics that leave you so thirsty.
Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a
liquid laxative which relies on senna
for its laxative action. It has the
average person's bowels ns regular as
