Burlington's
'Zephyr' Makes
a irial I rip
Streamlined Train Travels from Kan
sas City to Lincoln Over
Regular Run.
BOYS OF THE CCC CAN VOTE
The "Zephyr," Burlington stream
lined train, Wednesday made its
trial run from Kansas City to Lin
coln oyer the route that is destined
to be the regular scheduled route of
this train in the future.
The train was operated via this
city and Omaha on to Lincoln, pass
ing through Plattsmouth at 11:15
a. m. Wednesday on the test run.
The trip from the Kansas City
union station to the Burlington sta
tion at Lincoln required three hours
and forty-five minutes and the offi
cials of the railroad are confident
that the train will be able to main
tain the projected schedule of four
hours when it is placed in service
between these two points.
The train was taken from Lincoln
to Burlington, Iowa, where it will
be checked at the railroad shops
there for any necessary repairs and
the decision will then be made as
to the definite time that it will be
placed In regular service.
The train will reduce the time
between Lincoln, Omaha and Kansas
City materially and will be ene of
the crack trains of the country.
Washington. The boys of the
CCC may go home on election day,
if they are eligible voters, without
fear of losing that day's pay. Offi
cials of the conservation corps re
ported that commanding officers ol
all camps had been notified "that
any eligible voter in the CCC may
be permitted to go home and vote if
he so desires."
Certain restrictions were placed on
this privilege, however. If members
of the corps make the trip to their
home communities and back in one
day or less, .they will lose no wages.
If they are away from camp longer
than one day their wages for the ad
ditional time will be deducted.

Bindweed Demonstration Meetings.
Farmers of the county will have
a chance to talk over all the latest
methods of killing bindweed at dem
onstrations arranged by the agricul
tural agent on the farms of Archie
Miller, Alvo, Rudolph Hart, Weep
ing Water, and Dale Topliff, Mur
ray. The meetings all will be held
on Monday, October 22nd according
to the following schedule:
Archie Miller's. 10 a. m.. 1 mile
east and ' mile south of Alvo on
the east side of the road.
Rudolph Hart's, 1:00 p. m., 2
miles north and 24 miles east of
Weeping Water on the south side
cf the road.
Dale Topliff 's, 2:43 p. m., 2 miles
south and 1 west of Murray cn the
north side of the road.
We suggest you attend the demon
stration nearest you or the one
which suits your convenience best.
A way to rid a farm of bindweed
without any cash expense or loss of
crop has been worked out and will
be discussed by Mr. Arthur Peterson
of the Agricultural College. He will
also answer many questions about
the use of chlorates and about other
methods of killing the worst weed in
Nebraska. At the meeting Peterson
will discuss the various ways ma
chinery may be worked over to han
dle the summer fallowing job. He
will have with him some samples of
the duck foot shovels commonly
used, and be able to answer many
questions about this method and oth
er ways of getting rid of the bind
weed. The dry summer has shown up
the effects of the bindweed on the
moisture suddIv even more than
usual. Crops in bindweed patches
were the first to suffer early this
summer, and in many cases the farm
ers got a little livestock feed from
the land without the weed and noth
ing from the weed patches. Using
bindweed for pasture did not prove
profitable this year even in the
driest part of the state. The weed
develops so little top growth com
pared with the damage it does to the
moisture supply that it cannot be
considered as a possibility . for a fu
ture pasture crop.

ENSURE WITH

4-H Clubs for Winter Months.
Many rural teachers find that or
ganizing 4-H clubs in their school
during the winter months keep the
children occupied with something
worthwhile during spare hours and
also that the work carried in the
winter projects correlates to a mark
ed degree with the material found
in their lesson books.
Through Hot Lunch club work
pupils are taught the fundamentals
of choosing the right foods for a
healthful diet. The members, under
Plan I take turns as cooks, house
keepers and bookkeepers. Under Plan
II, they bring their food in a pint jar
to be heated to supplement a cold
lunch brought from home.
Keep-Well Clubs are very popular
among the school children. Already
one Keep-Well Club, under the lead
ership of Miss Clarice Hottle, Elm
wood, has been enrolled. Correlat
ing the problems of the Keep-Well
club with their study of hygiene and
physiology proves fascinating to the
students who learn that good health
habits are essential to long life as
well as physical attractiveness.
Rope club work proves interesting
to the boys while many girls also
enroll. They learn the tricks in rope
splicing, halter making and tying of
knots that are useful around the
home and of great value on the farm.
Eoys and girls who have gradu
ated from school and have more time
to devote to club work find the Fix-
It. Sewing and Cooking clubs ol
greater interest. In Fix-It clubs the
boys and girls make actual use ol
their time by fixing farm machinery,
home accessories, cleaning up the
farmstead, planning recreation foi
the family and community groups
work on accident and fire prevention
about the house and farmstead, and
eradicating insect, rodent and weed
pests.
In the club organized in a school
the work may be done either at
home or at school. The teacher or
some older person in the community
acts as the local leader. Five or
more boys and girls 10 to 20 years
of age are required to form a stand
ard club. Those under and over these
ages may be associate members. It
you are Interested in organizing a
4-H club for the winter, see the
agents at once.

Kroger Made
District Judge by
Governor Bryan
Bar of Eleventh Judicial District
Had Been Requested Not to
Make Recommendation.
After requesting the bar of the
Eleventh judicial district not to make
a recommendation, Governor Bryan
announces that he has appointed E
G. Kroger of Grand Island to be dis
trict judge to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of Judge Horth ot
Grand Island.
The number of applicants was
very limited, said the governor, some
attorneys deciining to stand as such,
Kroger among them, but he was in
duced to have his name considered
after others had refused, and Kro
ger was strongly endorsed by indi
vidual attorneys. Among those con
sidered were P. J. Barrett of Gree
ley. W. A. Prince of Grand Island,
William F. Spikes of St. Paul and
Ralph W. Norman of Ord.
"It was difficult to select," said
Eryan, "but finally the location ot
eligible attorneys narrowed consid
eration to Uhe southern part of the
district. He said the district has
two judges. Judge Clements, living
at Ord, now being on the bench
There are eleven counties in the dis
trict and as more than half of the
business of the court originates in
Hall county, he deemed it proper to
have one Judge from that section.
"The bar of the district met at
Grand Island last week," said the
governor, "and it was proposed that
it recommend an attorney for judge
I sent word that I would prefer no
formal recommendation from the
bar. In the first place it might em
barrass the appointee by making him
feel that he was under obligation to
attorneys; second, the governor can
not delegate his responsibility foi
such an appointment; and third
there is much sentiment against at
torneys selecting judges of courts.
"Reduction of the salary of dis
trict judges from $5,000 a year to
$4,000 has had its effect. Leading
attorneys have an income in excess
of that, and one would have to low
er his standard of living if he had
no other income. So I consider the
district fortunate in securing the
services of an attorney such as Mr
Kroger. He is comparatively young
has had twenty-five years practice at
the bar, is an outstanding lawyer in
central Nebraska, and is so recog
nized by a large number of the bar."
Kroger has affiliated with the
democratic party and supported Wil
liam Ritchie, democratic candidate
against Bryan, two years ago
Ritchie himself supported Bryan in
the recent campaign for United
States senator.
Born In Nebraska, he played foot
ball for Nebraska university, was
graduated from the law college In
1909 and served two terms as Grand
Island police judge.
TO CHECK SALE OF CATTLE
Washington. In an effort to check
forced sales of cattle thruout the
drouth hit west, the farm adminis
tration worked on a feed procure
ment program which officials pre
dieted would be completed by Mon
day or Tuesday.
Plans under discussion included
the probable heavy purchase of feed
concentrates because offocials have
about concluded attempts at move
ment of large quantities or loose
feeds into range areas such as Texas,
would be impracticable and the
possible importation of feed.
This startling picture of the assassination of King Alexander of Yugoslavia and Foreign Minister
Louis Barthou was snapped several seconds after the Croatian killer Petrus Kaleman (arrow) had leaped to
the running board of their auto in Marseilles, France, and fired a round of shots. A mounted officer is pictured
sabering the assassin while guards and police closed too late to save the Balkan monarch. Dying Alexander is
huddled against the side of the car nearest Kalemen.
EURDE2T PLACED ON ARIZONA
Phoenix. Ariz. More than 36,000
unemployed passed thru Arizona en
route to California during the last
month, Florence Warner, federal re
lief administrator of this state, said.
She declared the situation has be
come serious for Arizona, necessi
tating the feeding of 1,000 persons a
day at the federal transient camp in
addition to 1,000 regularly taken
care of there. Miss Warner atrib
uted the westward movement to the
"end poverty in California" plan of
Upton Sinclair, democratic candidate
for governor there.
