The 20th of June has gone for 34. Was it thj year or month you got crossed upon or the cash, or the will? We broad minded men in the hotel game know that a trip like this can't be made on $42.50 er.> But we do hope you make it as the p.'ess hates to lie, and your fri ends wont be laughing up their sleeves Oh me, the Fourth of July is just about played its part, but when plan- 1 ning your fishing trip avoid the Hap py Hollow Club’s district, because the ! seem to dislike the name fish. Out ! of the two fishers that was on their j pay roll for years, not one was let in the pond. They hooked Mr. I. Fisher last week. That killed the old slang we use, “We we lose a boy or girl fri end, there as good a fish in the pond that’s never been caught. _ The Assn, met Monday nght, and mportant thing happend. The pre sident is sure of another week in the chair, good. Their business was the same as stock soup. The same, only a little added each week, making it thicker and harder to solve. Add some beans and let’s hear some news new noise. Say, Mr. President, of the Swast ika Golf Club, why didn’t you let the dancing public know that you had canceled your dance Friday night? Oh well, the ress only played its part. I do hope that the smoker or stag you wll give at the Elks Club Tuesday night will go over. So I am told the ladies of the Swas tika Golf Club will give a luncheon iuesday night at Mr. Davis on Binney St. You can depend on the ladies. They don’t make those long drives like the men but they can putt. That means a lot to friends, because it takes the puttts as wee as the drives to put the gam.i over. Talking to the U. P. boys this week, all is 0. K. on the lines. Old faces of the rails is pulling up nightly in Omaha’s Harlem. Mr. Bell and Mr. Harding sure figured out the baker heater. Where they go so goes the business. Oh well, Omaha needs needs a little life. JEWETT SHOUSE' LATE ADVICE ON TEMPERANCE By R. A. Adams (For The Literary Service Bureau) It seems the acme of irony for Jewett Shouse, the man who headed “The Association Against Prohibi tion” to come out and advocate tem perance- But he did, if resent press I dispatches were true- According to these, he urged the home and the church to return to teaching prohibi tion in order to save the youth of the land from the corrupting influence of liquor. No nation of state would remove its laws against narcotics, place them in reach of all, then talk of educating aganist their use! Would it be wise to put poison within the reach of child ren and then prate of educating them against its influence? No one can honestly advocate such a course. Such inconsistency regarding traffic in strong drink is as weak, and would be as foolish as the othe»rs mentioned in this conection. Thi nation contains millions of il iterates and millions of morons who are too ignorant and too weak to deny themselves these destructive things which give them xcitement a<.d a kind of pleasure- though they are aes_ troving them- So, it is criminal and almost inhuman to put such destruc tive things within their reach- It is consumate hypocrisy to make the na tion wet and then talk of ducating against the d- .structive infTtrgnce of mm- But. this is just -what Jt vett rhouse, farmer chalAna . of the Na tional Democratic Commiti- e has done Announces Engragrenicnt Mss Idabell Gilbert __Miss Idabell Gelbert of Texarkana, Tex, who announces her engag » u nt to Mr Lawereno - of De Queen, Ark The wedding will take lace Aug 27 It is reported that these two young eople have be n in love with each other for some time_.... __ ...._ NEW RECORDER DR.
