John (). Yeiscr won the rank of Colonel by his activity in politics last year. He Ib now out for a higher title. Possibly the title he secured last year Ib not sufficiently recognized. Mr. Yelser made a bid last year for tho honor of being the first Nebraskan to suggest the name of Col. Roosevelt for President. He Is now advocating a conference for the purpose of re-unltlng the brok en members of the republican party in this state. Mr. Yelser will fall in his efforts this time. The progressive re publicans have tasted the delight of thinking and talking something beside party loyalty, and they are in no hurry 'to go back and be bridled and harness ed for the Rosewaters, the Barneses and the Penroses to lead and drive up to the standard oil managers It would be a public calamity for the progress ive party to again come under the in fluence or domination of the stand pat ters. Knowing that this great and glori ous country of ours can be developed and made to blossom as the rose wo we desire to do all wo can to promote Its welfaro and realizing that the more homes wo have established in onr midst the quicker will our advance ment be, we therefore have decided to give absolutely free ope year's sub scription to the Chief to every couple that marries and settles in this county. Long established families have depend ed upon the Chief for years and years for all kinds of Information nud ad vise and the new homes should, start out In life equipped with tho same precious organ. Old batchelors ouirht not to loiiiroi- .hesitate and young ones will certainly will bo greatly encouraged by this Rift of ours. Fifty-two copies of tho Chief just for getting married and snaking a home. Who will be the first to send in their name and ad dress? The department of sociology of the state university recently conducted aa investigation of the recreational ' conditions of the rural towns of Ne braska. The results obtained were published' in the University Journal for November. It was found that the . ageacles most active in promoting re. creation are schools, commercial feats, churches, customs and tra ditions, clubs and lodges and saloons. A Mmmary of the towns of the state shows that the schools promote 20.83 per cent of the recreational interests, the commercial agents 20.03 per cent the oburches 10.39 per cent, customs ad traditions 15.32 per cent, clubs and lodges 12.13 per cent and the saloons 1.7 per cent. The young people of all times have muted and will want social life and JBSMment. If a corrupt 'sort is of fered it cannot but have its effect. If aoae is offered the result Is one sided or blighted youth. The commission D" PRICES CREAM BAKING POWDER 1 A Pare Cream of Tartar Powder !

These buildings should be used for regular social and literary meetings. The commission also point out that every community was capable of en tertaining Itself by drawing out its latent ability. The Idea that outsldejs must be Imported to furnish amuse ment and recreation Is absurd. The community owes it to Itself to utilize Its borne energy and gculus. Yes, its the little things that hurt. A common cvery-clay measly little fly will make an orthodox Christian swear forty strokes to the minute, while If the same man had his head taken off by a July tornado he wouldn't say a word about It. Tho public schools deserve morn at tention than is usually given them. Parents, as a rule, reirard their entire duty in this connection discharged in paying their ax and proporly olutliiuir and sending their children to school. There Is reason to four that many look upon tho school room us a nursery to relieve them of their troublesome chil dren. The p'iblic schools cannot ac complish the full measure of their pos sibilities unless the parents join with teachers him! directors in attention to pupils. City Treasurer's Statement Dec. 3d, 1012.
