The reports received here today
from Omaha state that Donald Gor

HOLD ROAD MEETING
Tuesday a meeting was held at
Lincoln of representatives of the good
reads movement which discussed at
s-'cni" length the project of number

'JUDGE NOT, LEST YE BE JUDGED'
With these words, Chief Defense
Councel Riley opened his impassioned
plea to the jury at Flemington, N. J.,
shortly before the noon hour today.
The state's opening argument was
concluded in less than an hour.
Riley dwelt at length on the sup
position that "A man is considered in
nocent until proven guilty," claiming
his client had been under suspicion of'
guilt from the very day of his arrest,
and admonished the jurors to careful
ly weigh the evidence. He wa3 still

Plan to Check
Danger of Flood
from Mississippi
Fear Felt That Spring May Bring- Re
newed Dangers to Lowlands
Along the Valley.
The menace of a dangerous spring
flood down the Mississippi valley lies
latent in the northern wood and
plains. January snows and rains,
from the headwaters in Minnesota
to the Louisiana delta, were double
the usual fall in some regions and
preparations already have been made
to speed aid if the flood menace
strikes. No immediate peril has been
sighted. Nevertheless, government of
ficers said, a protracted thaw would
send a heavy burden of ice and water
downstream, swell tributaries, broad
en the Mississippi and Jeopardize the
lowlands.
Three powerful agencies have or
ganized to spot the danger in ad
vance and are ready to provide
prompt aid if needed. Representa
tives of the U. S. weather service and
coast guard and the Red Cress form
ulated their program last week at a
conference in Evansvillc. Ind.
Coast guard headquarters at Chi
cago have devised a scheme for rush
ing help to the stricken regions.
Four hours after tho receipt of or
ders they can have thirty motorized
surf beats aboard flat cars and head
ed for the flood ccciic. Tho Cleve
land division can dispatch nine more

As these Christian.; lived among

Good citizens, today as then, arc

tho Gospel has been preached for
nearly 2,000 years, and millions of j
God's children have lived Godly lives'
and have proven to the world that:
"Godliness with contentment is great

is that the world cannot understand
the conduct of Christians. The rsalm
ist knew cf tho joy of the service in
the Ilcuse of Ged, when he said:
'Fcr a day in thy courts is better

can learn this from books. Let a
