Lincoln, Oct. 29.—F. L. Cook, who
styles himself "field secretary of the
Kii Klux Klim.'’ with headquarters
)n )•('. today declined to comment on a
rtatement of a University of Nebras
l ,i student that there were several
! undred student members of the klan
'I can't tell you. and 1 wouldn't
if 1 could,” he declared. "He might
bnvc said 2.O0II as well as 200, and if
c.,u want to print 2,000, go ahead.
Uni not going to tell you anything
about it.”
Ask'd if there was a klan organ!
i , .ii.n nl university students, he said:
•'Certainly not. If there are any
kInn members in ihe university they
arc not members of a tm.tersity, or
ganisation.''
\V. 1’. MacCaffree, secretary of the
university V .M. C. A., under whose
auspices Cook last week addressed a
meeting of students, said today that
a scheduled talk by opponents of the
klan, which was to hav? been given
tomorrow, was postponed because of
circumstances over which the V. M.
C. A. had no control.
••The impression seems to lie that
we do not desire the students to hear
the other side, after arranging a let
lure on tlie klan, and it is absolutely
false,” Mr. MacCaffree said. "The
meeting by an opponent of the klan
was not canceled, but simply post
Poned until November 7, when Dr. W.
H. Riley of Lincoln will address the
students.”
Dr. Riley is a university pastor,
attached to the Congregational
church. His subject will be ''The
Ku Klux Klan and Christian Amer

Consumption of butter in the United
States has increased 160,000,000
pounds in the last 12 months, accord
ing to Dean H. L. Russell of the col
lege of agriculture of the University
of "Wisconsin. Dean Russell is at
tending the sessions -f the agricul
lural commission of the American
Bankers' association, as a member
of the commission's advisory council.
''HtfUer production has shown an
increase of 100,000,000 pounds in a
year, to meet the rising demand,”
Dean Russell said, "but the country
has been compelled to import 60,000,
000 pounds of butter during the year
to make up the difference between in
creased demand and increased supply
—despite the fact that the Fordney
tariff places a high duty of 8 cents a
pound on butter.”
Agricultural experts, Mr, Russell
asserted, are unable to explain the
big increase in butter consumption.

that the reason he has no feathers
on his head is because his gPeat-great
ever-sogreat-grandfather, who lived
way back in the days when the world
was young, once flew so high that the
sun scorched the feathers on his head,
dnd so no Buzzard since has ever
worn feathers on his head. Of course
this is only a story, but it shows how
the Buzzards have always been con

Did you know that all the
bridesmaids’ dresses at Marianne
Merry’s wedding were dyed by
Dresher Brothers’ expert dyer?
Marianne had chosen a shade
of delicate pink for the maids’
gowns and she wanted to be as
sured that the colors would ab
solutely match.
A week later one of Mari
anne’s bridesmaids went east to
be maid of honor at a college
chum's wedding and she had the
same dress re-dyed a soft shade
of green.
The girls sent their dresses
to Dreshers’ expert because
they know that he is a master '
craftsman and can give dyed I
materials life, luster and sheen.
They know that Dreshers, with
nine of the most progressive
cleaners of the United States,
spend $15,000 every year to
maintain a laboratory of indus- :
trial research where every j
method, every process and all
equipment used in each plant is
accurately tested.
