LEGION WINS FROM I-IYNARD
The American Legion kittenball
team Thursday night were the win
ners from the Mynard Cornhuskers
by the score of 14 to 10. The game
opened with both teams hitting and
several errors to mar the game, both
scoring four runs, while in the sec
ond the Mynard team secured a five
to four lead that was soon wiped out
by the veterans. Biil Krisky did the
hurling for the veterans while Jack
Vallery performed that task for the
Cornhukers. The box score of the

SH0WEE FOR MRS. FITCH
Friday afternoon Mrs. Theodore
Ptak was hostess at a very charming
miscellaneous shower at the Ptak
home on West Pearl street for Mrs.
Robert Fitch, Jr.
The home was arranged in decor
ations of the summer flowers and
made a very attractive setting for
the pleasant afternoon.
The time was spent in bridge in
which Mrs. Herbert Schutz was the
winner of first prize and Mrs. W. V.
Ryan of the second hosors.
In honor of the recent marriage of
Mrs. Fitch, she was presented with
a number of very attractive gilts
from the friends that will serve long
as remembrances cf the associates.
At an appropriate hour dainty re
freshments were served by the hostess
that added greatly to the enjoyment
of all of the jolly party.
If the government really wants to
do something for the farmera, they
might make some arrangements
whereby it is as easy to get out of
debt as it is to get out of the penitentiary.

From Saturday's Dally
The kittenball fans had a double
bill of entertainment last night at
the Athletic park when the BREX
team wen from the Wintersteen Hill
Canaries by the score of 15 to 1 and
the Crevrolet team trimmed the
Donats by the score of 14 to 11.
In the opener the two shop teams
had a fast and snappy game despite
the large score and the contest was
played in good time to complete it
before darkness fell.
The BREX showed a fast fielding
organization and gave Dick March a
fine support at all stages of the game,
Dick also hurling a nice brand of
ball. The BREX hit Gaylord hard
and also many errors on the part of
the Canaries added to their opponents
rolling up the one sided tally.

The Nightcap.
The second game of the evening
was played under the lights and
opened with the "Chevies" scoring
five runs in the opening stanza wiiue
the Donat team was held to one score.
The opening inning was a bad one
for the beverage boys as many errors
and wild throws made it possible for
the automobile boosters to trot
around the bags.
Louie Knoflicek was the mound
artist for the Donats and was wild
in the opening but was able to settle
down for a hard fought finish.
Floyd Becker was the hurling ace
cf the Chevies.
In the latter part of the game the
beverage team started in to hit and
made a whirlwind finish that brought
them within a small margin of the
victory but were unable to make the
necessary runs.

THE ZEPHYR
For weeks all the country has
been deeply stirred
About the Zephyr of which they
have so much heard,
And when it proceeded to make
a show,
And pass through our city and
to Chicago go
The town and all the country
out side.
Proceeded to lead up and take
a ride,
To Plattsmouth they came and
sat at the wheel,
To get a glimpse of so much
unburnished steel.
The Legion was called out to
patrol the track.
For fear some wanderer should
get in the slack.
And be carried away with the
Zephyr
And tossed in the bushes and
among the heather.
On the hillside steep we gather
ed to see,
The wonder of the world it was
supposed to be,
When around the curve it hove
into sight,
Sparkling all over, it shone so
bright.
A 'plane came sauntering leis
urely along,
As the Zephyr disappeared
through the excited throng.
And rounded the cure and cross
ed the bridge,
Leaving us pondering on the
side of the ridge.
Yes, we pondered and started
for home,
With a twinkle in our eyes as
it left us to roam.
Over hills r.nd dales as we
sought shelter and rest.
With a question mark linger
ing within the breast.
The Zephyr has gone and left
a breeze.
Bending the branches of the
stately trees.
We hope they will be secure
from this inevitable blast.
And return to normal safe at
last. J- R. T.
HAD ICE CREAM TREAT
The ten Boy Scouts who have been
rpending the past few days at Camp
Wheeler, under supervision of V. T.
Arn, who is slowly recuperating
from an operation on his hand, had a
pleasant troat provided for them last
r.;ght when Mr. and Mrs. Will Evers
arrived at camp with an ice cdeam
freezer filled to the brim with lusc
ious home made ice cream just the
kind that would delight any boy, and
doubly welcome after a couple of days
at camp, far removed from the con
ve-niences of the home ice box this
hot weather.
The beys have been having a great
time, and will return home this af
ternoon well tanned and tired. A nat
ural swimming hole in Rock creek
across the road west from the camp
is being utilized pending completion
of the swimming hole just below the
cabin, work on which was started un
der CWA shortly before that was dis
continued by federal order April 1st.
The creek is carrying a very small
amount of water no more than will
run through a two inch pipe and the
entire flow is being shunted thru
the artificial swimming hole to pre
vent the water there from becoming
stagnant prior to completion of the
project.
RETURNS FROM KANSAS
Con Lynch, who has been enjoy
ing a few days visit with relatives
in Kansas has returned home and
was accompanied by his mother, who
is to spend the summer months here
with the son and family. Mr. Lynch
spent several days at Plcasanton,
where the mother made her home and
visited with re-latives. He also visit
ed at Boycourt, Kansas, with Henry
Gentry, a brother of Mrs. Lynch. Con
reports that conditions in Kansas are
very dry and the country has suffer
ed a great deal from the prolonged
drouth and hot weather.
TAKEN TO PENITENTIARY
Deputy Sheriff Thomas Walling
was at Lincoln Friday, conveying
Rcss Shropshire of Weeping Water
to the state penitentiary where he
will start serving sentence of from
one to three years. The charge
against Shropshire Avas that of break
ing and entering.
The NRA has decided that no
code is necessary for the insurance
business. Still, we think a young
man whose wedding has recently ap
peared in the society column ought
to have means of holding insurance
agent3 down to forty hours of his
time each week.
:o:
Corncob pipe makers may be in
need of a code and they may not,
for all the public knows about the
matter. There might be common
agreement, however, as to the need
for a,code of hours and conduct and
even fuel to be used for guidance of
smokers of pipeB.cob and. otherwise.
Roosevelt Has
the Final Say on
Adjourning Day
June 9 Tentative Date for Congress
to Quit, But Nothing Certain;
Much to Be Done.
Washington. How thin the house
slices the legislative loaf will be the
governing factor which will deter
mine the date on which senators and
representatives start buying railroad
tickets for the trip home. Leaders
had their eyes fixed on June 9 as a
likely adjournment date, but they
were awaiting word from the white
house about some of the controver
sial matters still pending before mak
ing definite plans. Four bills tar
iff, stock market regulation, silver,
and additional public works appro
priations were marked for certain
passage, but their approval by June
9 would be easy.
The question mark after the ten
tative adjournment date was chief
ly attributable to uncertainty over
the Wagner labor bill reported by a
senate committee, and the adminis
tration housing bill, which is still
before the senate's banking commit
tee. There have been indications the
administration would like both pass
ed before adjournment, but Presi
dent Roosevelt has not committed
himself on delaying adjournment to
get them thru.
There were posrible blocks in some
of the other pending legislative pro
posals, particularly the bill to ex
tend the tenipcrary bank df posit in
surance plan, onto which the house
attached an amendment to aid de
positors in closed banks. This issue
involved potentialities which might
tie tho houses up in a deadlock, be
causa the extension of the temporary
insurance plan is considered vital by
the administration.
Tho the industrial loan bills pass
ed by the house and senate were
somewhat different, little difficulty
was expected in reaching an agrte
mtnt on a measure providing about
half a billion dollars for that pur
pose. Among the major pie-cos of legis
lation expected to be dropped or de
feated were the agricultural adjust
ment act amendments, the Copeland
food, drug and cosmetics bill, the
bonus bill and oil control legisla
tion. Disposal of the tariff bill within, a
few days was assured by an agree
ment in the senate to limit debate
beginning Wednesday. Leaders plan
ned to take up the silver bill after the
tariff.
The conference report on the stock
market control bill on which an
agreement was reached, will be sub
mitted to the senate about the mid

CL0IDT SERVICE STATION
IS NEARING COMPLETION
The new and up to the minute gas
station being built on the ocrner of
Main and 3rd streets by John J.
Cloidt, is nearing completion.
The concrete driveways are now
all completed, the rest rooms are be
ing given the last touch by the paint
ers and the new electric self-computing
pumps have been installed.
These are the very latest thing in
gasoline pumps, and have attracted
a great deal of interest.
A supply of White Rose gas and
Enarco motor oil is being delivered
today, the gas being run into the
large underground tanks at the rear
cf the buiulding.
John says he has had so many re
quests for the White Rose gas that
he has decided to give the people of
the community a chance to use it. It
is the highest grade of ga3 obtain
able and until recently sold at a high
er price than ordinary gas. I have
secured a setup with the White Rose
Co. v. hereby I will be able to sell
their high grade product at the same
price generally demanded for ordi
nary gas. I will appreciate your pat
ronage and will soon announce the
formal opening date at which time
I expect to be prepared to give you
complete service of greasing, oiling,
washing, etc. Gas and oil now on
hand ready for your car.

Becauie William Gettle, California
kidnap victim, was not subjected to
violence while in the hands of his
abductors, the three kidnapers now
under life sentence may be eligible
to parole some time in the future.
The fact that it was Mr. Gettlc's im
plicit obedience to every command
that saved him from brutal treat
ment, rather than any forbearance
on the part of the kidnapers, seems
to have been a point entirely over
locked by the writers cf the Cali
fornia law.

District 4-H Judging Day.
Juiis 11th is the date of the first
judging day for this district. Casi
county club members will attend
judging practice at the College of
Agriculture. There will be work in
animal husbandry, dairy, crops, poul
try, baked goods, canned foods, cloth
ing and girls room.
Judging practice at local club
meetings prior to district judging
day will help members to become
more familiar with terms, which in
turn will enable them to more read
ily grasp the instruction as it is given
in Lincoln.
Local leaders and club members in
terested in judging should take ad
vantage of this practice day in Lin
coln. Plant Small Grain Fail
ures to Atlas Sorgo
Small grain failures can be re
planted to Atlas Sorgo, a crop that
is highly resistant to dry weather and
chinch bugs, makes twice the ton
nage of fodder per acre as coin and
ca-i be planted with a lister at the
rale of 12 to 15 pounds per acre un
til June 10th to loth. It is a cro-s
between Blackhull Kafir and Sour
less cane.
Regular corn planter plates are
not satisfactory for planting Atlas
seed. Blank plates drilled with a
number of three-eighth inch holes are
generally used by farmers. The hob's
should be reamed out on the lov.tr
side to prevent clogging.
Weil matured silage is about as
satisfactory cattle fede rs corn silage.
Shepherds regard it as better silage
than corn. Horse men say Atlas is
good winter feed when fed a3 dry
fodder. Atlas does not make safe pas
ture since it sometimes contains tho
same poison as cane.
Over 600 4-H'ers.

Transfer Contracted Acres.
Under the wheat contract, farm
ers are permitted to pasture tre-ir
contracted acres. This is not allow
ed however, under the corn contracts.
The only solution to the pasture
problem for those who have sweet
clover ground laid aside as contract
ed acres under their corn-hog con
tract, is to trade the acreage for some
other ground, such as oats. Wash
ington and the local allotment com
mittee has permitted the transfer of
contracted acreage. If you will come
into the corn and hog office you can
transfer your second year sweet
clover ground to oats or other ground
and in this way use the clover you
had previously contracted.
The county quotas of hogs and
corn are here and all speed i3 being
made to get the contracts ready for
Washington. Contracts with early
payment riders will be completed
first. In these contracts the signers
hae completed th ir contracts and
given the committee permission to
forward the contracts to Washing
ton. If you wish to Bee your ap
praisal and allotment before the ton
tracts go to Washington, call at the
corn and hog office between June
4th and 9th.
'Can the Rooster"
At this time or year, the expres
sion "can the rooster" might be in
terpreted either as slang or good Eng
lish. There is very little profit in late
hatched chicks, so the roosiers in the
flock have served their purpose this
year.
Shutting up the roosters in a clean,
comfortable coop and giving thrin
plenty of good feed r.nd water for a
week cr ten days will tend to soften
up their flesh and possibly add a lit
tle; fat. Then convert into canned
chicken and they afford an emerg
ency supply of good meat for home
use. Extension Circular 945, Poultry
Canning, gives explicit directions and
steps for processing poultry.
Texas officers are noted for track
ing down criminals, but th?y can't
gz-t them as fast as Texas governors
can pardon them.
