COBB TN a certain Southern city the lady who is at the head of the public library has a fondness for larding her speech with quotations from, foreign ' languages, including the ' dead ones. Especially is she ad dicted to Latin phrases. Locally there is a suspicion that she some times sets a trifle mixed. But the lady herself goes serenely along, pumping strange words into her everyday conversation. . One afternoon a patron dropped in to get a book. "You weren't here the last time I called," said the visitor. "Youi assistant said you were taking a little rest. Did you enjoy your vacation?" "Very much," said the learned one. "I just took a little jaunt up to New York via train and came home vice versa." "How did you say you came home?" asked the astonished citizen. "Vice versa," repeated the lady blandly. "By steamer, don't yow know." James Schlanker who raised the bid and Rev. Krey who took it on up to $35 an acre, and was declared the highest and best bidder. It is said there were 73 people in the lobby of the bank when the property was be ing sold, the place being crowded. Among those from out of town were W. G. Renwanz, of near Green v,ood, F. W. Lorenz of Elmwood, J. F. Wolff, Attorney Chas. Martin (who conducted the sale) and Attor ney A. L. Tidd. of Plattsmouth. B. W. Livingston of Cedar Creek and James Schlanker of near Elmwood. Mrs. Margaret Gillespie Mrs. Margaret Gillespie, nee Mc Namara, was born at Meadville, Pennsylvania, May 28, 1873. At the age of four years she moved with her parents, in a covered wagon, to Silver City, Iowa, where the family remained for two years, after which they moved to a farm two miles nor.th of Elmwood, Nebraska. She married W. O. Gillespie March 12, 1S95, at Wilbur, Nebraska. Af ter the young couple had been en gaged in farming near Murdock for several years, they moved to Mur dock in the fall of 1904, where they conducted the hotel business and provided ample home comforts for the travelers, the hungry and the homeless. Many people have felt the comfort and warmth of her hospi tality throughout the years and have considered her fireside their refuge and their home. She completed the hotel work in 1919, but her kindly hospitality and interest in people continued throughout the years. Mrs. Gillespie was happy in her Christmas prospects as she and some of her loved ones left their home comforts last Friday afternoon to celebrate the Christmas season else where. At 6:15 p. m., the family party met with a serious automo bile accident near York, Nebraska. The injured were rushed to a nearby hospital, and Mrs. Gillespie passed into eternity at York at 4:00 a. m., Saturday, December 24, 1938. The departed had a meaningful experience with Jesus Christ our Saviour, early in 1925, which trans formed her life, brought peace to her soul and an abiding trust in His faithful leadership. She joined the Ebenezer Evangelical church in Murdock on April 12, 1925. Her love, loyalty and support to the church of her choice have been con stant throughout these years. Many of her friends will remember her last public witness for Christ and His church. She joined the Murdock Ladies Aid as a charter member. Her mem bership here also remained constant and helpful. Mrs. Gillespie leaves to mourn her loss, her husband, two sons, Harry L. Gillespie of North Loup. Ne braska; Murel R. -Gillespie of Mur dock, Nebraska, her sister-in-law, Mrs. Agnes McNamara, of Fairmont, Nebraska: Miss Janette McNamara and Willard McNamara and Mrs. Vera Eisenhut-Blattspieler of Tobias, Nebraska; and a large circle of friends, acquaintances and compan ions throughout the church and com munity. The village has lost a long re membered resident and most helpful friend. The deceased has mothered and counseled the motherless and has eased the troubles and concerns of many others. Tbe life of 65 years, C months and 26 days speaks of help fulness to man and of what God can do through grace and power. "Behold the tabernacle of God is with men and he shall dwell with them and they shall he his people, and God himself shall be with them aud be their God." Funeral services for Mrs. Gillespie took place Monday afternoon. De cember 26, at the Ebenezer Evan-1 gelical church in Murdock. The message from the text Micah 6:8 was given by the Rev. Harvey A. Schwab, pastor of the deceased. Hymns of comfort were sung by Mrs. Leo Rikli and Mrs. William Zabel, who were accompanied by Miss Doretta Schlaphof. The pall bearers were Charles Long. Frank Buell. .Joe Gustin, Frank Rosenow, I. C. McCrory and Henry Tool. Interment was in the Murdock Wabash cemetery. 'The Split Cherry Tree" An Allegory by L. Neitzel Some years ago the writer plant ed a cherry tree, watered it, nur tured it. and as it was planted in good soil, it grew and in time be came very fruitful, rejoicing the heart and repaid many fold for the labor that was spent on it. It was a strong tree, large in size, and the birds nestled in it. It was a delight when in bloom, but more 60 when the cherries were ripe, and for many years the children would come and .satisfy their appetites and carry a supply home with them. Time went cn. season after season. No one gave any thought further to the tree; it would never change, it looked so healthy and strong, it would be good for many years to come but final- j ly a change did come. For several years it was noticed that it might split in two; still it had cherries as before, but one day a severe storm struck the tree (April 23, 1937) and in the morning of April 24, on Sunday morning, one half of the tree laid on the ground the other half still standing. It was split in two one half dead, the other half looks rather forlorn and pitiful; it wculd seem that it could not stand alone, it has nothing to lean upon; a storm like the one that laid the one half low would make an end of it quickly. The reader will by this time be able to make his own in terpretation. But let us explain the allegory in our own way. Many years ago two hearts were joined together, as God would have it. and the two became "one flesh." They were fruitful and rejoiced the heart of many. They lived their life under the protecting care of God, and his blessing was upon them. For many years the children would come home and were glad to linger in the shelter of the home, and leave again with sweet memories, until another season. No one would think of a change that might come; but in this changing world nothing is stable. So in due time signs were apparent that a change was eminent. Those near est the tree could see; and one day the storm struck the tree (Sunday morning, March 29. 193G) and split it in twain. Now the one half is still rtanding; but when we look upon it, we wonder how long it can stand. The wound will never heal. But we are waiting for His salvation (Gen. 49:21). Some day a storm will lay the "other half" down, that is in evitable, but I say with David: "As for me, I will behold his face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake with thy likeness." The great reunion of the faithful is not far away; Jesus says: "I come quickly." "Even so, come, Lord Jesus." (Rev. 23:20). CHRISTMAS MAIL HEAVY WASHINGTON.

Peanuts Well Roasted A large bag of peanuts which had been roasted and were in just the right condition for eating was left setting near the heat register at the Ted Hall store, where it would be out of the way and also kept warm and toasty. Last Tuesday afternoon, after the bag had set there for seme time, and without any provo cation, there appeared a blaze en veloping the sack and the radiator. With much haste the fire was ex tinguished, but not until the sack and most of the peanuts therein had been destroyed. M,r. Hall is loath to believe that the fire originated from the heat of the register, but rather that some one threw a lighted cigarette or a match in that direction from which the flimsy burlap bag was ignited. The loss was very small, but the excitement was intense for a few moments.

CHICAGO, January 2 Completing eleven years without a single passen ger death in a train accident. 24.- 196 employes of the Chicago, Bur lington & Quinry Railroad today were receiving congratulations and thanks for their safety co-operatio:i from Edward rlynn, executive vice president. A report of the Interstate Com merce Commission has Just revealed Burlington as having the least num ber of train accidents per million locomotive miles of any major rail road in the United States for 1937. the latest complete figures available.

Statisticians declare this means a single passenger, necessarily a mod ern -Methusaleh or discoverer of tho fountain of youth, could have trav eled 9.803 years without sustaininT a fatal scratch. "Accidents, " in tha technical language of the I.-C. C. are "accidents, with or without casual ties, arising in connection with the operation or movement of trains, locomotives, or cars that result iu damage to equipment or other rail way property in excess of $150.00, including cost of clearing wreck." The report also showed that rail roads as a whole are still by far the safest type of transportation with lowest ratio of accidents per one hundred million passenger miles. Burlington was lowest among 13 3 class one major railroads with 2.74 train accidents per million locomo tive miles during the ten year per iod.

Dec. 31 (UIM Ray mond Potter, 14, appeared today t have won a 25-day battle against staphylococcus meningitis, a rare dis ease usually fatal within 4S hours, and which only 11 persons have been known to survive. The mainstay of his treatment was blood donated by volunteers who re covered from other forms of staphy lococcus infections. Its apparent suc cess may be the solution to medical science's fight against staphyloccus meningitis an infection which trav els through the blood and attacks the hemes and meninges, or brain envelope. Dr. Luther M. Lorance. attending physician, said the boy is still ill, the infection having localized in th; bones, but that he is out of danger. He said tests of blood taken from the boy continued to show that the dread staphylococcus bacteria no longer are in his blood stream. He said medical history shows but eleven recoveries from the disease. Scientists, he said, have not been able to establish a ttandard treatment. Phono news Kama to tlo. e.
