The proprietor, Mr. Fred Kolterman, is a brother of Blair’s Carl Kolterman who has operated a similar business for many years. There are other Koltermans in the Ben Franklin business, the Seward Independent revealed in its review. They are locat ed at Red Oak and Malvern, Iowa and at Trinidad, Colorado. . * • * • / An attempt is to be made to bring pari-mutuel racing to Chadron, the Chadron Record revealed last week. Races would be held at the county fair grounds track and the profits would go to improve the grounds and facilities, the Record has stated. Chadron had pari-mutuel racing for two years a number of years ago and found the venture quite popular. * * * * Voters at Central City placed an emphatic OK on the voting of bonds for a new swimming pool last week. With the weather pushing the high 90’s the election was planned just right to get a record response. Central City will spend $50,000 on the pool. * • • • There’s been a different twist of the news at Schuyler, the Sun revealed last week. The Park Department is losing its trees to beaver which have gotten into the park lagoon. The little ani mals are cutting down the park’s trees—something which is an unpardonable sin, and as a result the park board has gotten a special dispensation from the game commission to get rid of the beaver. Three have already been shot and official “hunters” for the park are watching for still more. * * * • Ainsworth stores have announced that they will remain open until 10:00 P.M. on Saturday nights. This is an hour later than usual, according to the Star-Journal. • * • • While the Central City voters OK’d the swimming pool, an even larger issue is facing the voters at Aurora. This week they will vote on the building of a new school which will cost nearly a half million dollars—$490,000 to be exact. It will be one of the most ambitious school building programs going on in the state at this time. The Aurora News-Register is urging voters to accept the new building. * * * • A week ago a special type of parade was held at Aurora which has become one of the state’s centers of pump' irrrigation. With more than 600 irrigation wells in that community, everyone is very mindful of its benefits so a special irrigation parade and irrigation day was held. One of the floats appearing in the parade carried a slogan which was very appropriate for such an occasion. The float had a banner which read: “They used to dance or hope and wait, but now-a-days we irrigate.” * * t • The entire state is jubilant over the outcome of the wheat harvest. Here are some of the headlines which appeared in the papers over the state: Curtis Enterprise: “Wheat Harvest Under way; Crop best in Years.” The Times-Tribune at Beaver City: “Damp Weather has halted Wheat Harvest; Crop better than Ex pected.” Pawnee City Republican: “Wheat Harvest Nears End; Big Yields Reported.” The Crete News: “Ideal Weather Brings Bumper Wheat Harvest to Saline County.” The Ord Quiz: “Wheat Combining Starts. Some yields high, some barren.” Ord reported one yield of 40 bushels per acre. The Osceola Record: “Harvest Turned Out better than thought. Quality Good.” The Public Mirror at Arapahoe: “Good Wheat Yields Continue. Storage problem acute.” Keith County News: “Initial Reports on Yields range from 20 to 35 bushels.” • * • • The City Offices at Neligh are looking for a safe cracker— one who can open the city’s strongbox without making too much fuss and muss. , According to the Leader, the City Clerk went on vacation but before going he made out the payroll checks and other im portant papers and placed them in the safe until needed. Then— you guessed it—nobody could get the thing unlocked. A checkup revealed that something had gone wrong with the lock mechanism so Neligh is wondering just which safe cracker to call in for the job. Meanwhile, the city employees got their money via new checks which were made out as duplicates of the ones locked in the safe. ♦ • • • An irrigation well has been drilled near Madison which pro duces more than 1500 gallons per minute. It is believed that the big well can handle irrigation on 300 acres of land which will be considerably more than the usual amount of land handled by a single well. Sprinkler type irrigation will be used. Most irrigation wells are of the 500 to 800 gallon per minute class. * * * * v The City Council at Fairbury has set aside .4 of a mill in the annual levy to provide money to operate a historical museum. Old time keepsakes of the city will be preserved where all who are interested might see them. Hastings’ fambus “House of Yesterday” has been the inspira tion to the movement. • • • • In Sherman County, near Loup City, four rural school dis tricts are being dissolved. The County Superintendent is making use of a law which states that if a district does not hold school for one term and does not contract with any other district the Superintendent may dissolve the district and attach the land to adjoining districts. • • • * A gardener at West Point has produced a 1955 potato which measures 12-inches in circumference, according to the Republi can. That’s a lot of potato. Seem’ Stars New York — (CNS) Marva Louis | Spaulding with hubby, Dr. Spauld ing and two of her children due in the Moulin Rouge in Las Veg as—said to be her ex-husband’s latest business venture.. .Joe went to nearby Hollywood to appear as himsolf in a Columbia film of “The Square Jungle” but will be on hand to greet Marva and the kids. Thelma Carpenter together with two other stars of “Ankles A weigh” created quite a fuss when the show asked the cast to cut salaries. Carpie—who has other demands on her time and talent just refused to go along as well as Mark Dawson and Jane Kean. To show she wasn’t kidding, Thel ma turned in her notice to quit irregardless of whether the show went on or not.. .The musical— though getting by nicely after be ing panned so heavily by critics— decided to continue at the last minute but with a replacement for Carpie. Dorothy Dandridge rumored to be about ready to go into an inde pendent production of her own with her manager. She is to play Magige Gautier in “La Camillle Ho” against a New Orleans back ground. Writers haven’t yet finished the script. Baseball stars: Nobody who was in Wrigley Park that day will ever forget the announcing the crowd that Ernie Banks had been chosen the All-Star shortstop for the Na tional Leaguers. The applause that broke out for the peppery little fellow, was truly wonder and Banks—very much moved by it all—responded soundly by hit ting a home run.... Campy taking it easy with the kids and resting his knee injury | to be sure he can get back in the Brooklyn lineup as quickly as possible. Beauty Secrets By Rose Morgan Of New York Definitely Over 21 Voting age doesn’t really have much to do with changes in our appearance. Twenty-one doesn’t make the difference, but 30 does. After the celebration of that thirtieth birhday, whether you admit it to anyone else, it is time to give some extra attention to your skin and your figure. You will find if you do, the years will be light in their marks on your youthful appearance. One of the best beauty habits to get when you’re definitely over 21 is the daily ritual of creaming the flesh of the face and neck well and carefully every day. Lighten up a little on the use of soap and water during the day and, instead, cleanse the face and neck well with cold cream when you are freshening your makeup. Be sure to cream both the face and neck carefully with a rich skin cream, which you can leave on to do its work while you sleep. To apply your cream, whether it is for cleansing or skin food, always remember to use an up ward, circular motion. Stroke the cream into the neck, working upward. Use a rotary outward and upward motion to apply cream to the chin, along the cheeks and up to the forehead. Use, tiny circular motions on the nose, starting from the tip and stroking up and out. Begin at the bridge of the nose in cleans ing and feeding the flesh of the forehead. If your skin is inclined to oili ness, following your cleansing pat on a little astringent lotion with a coton pad. You will find that even if your skin was quite oily in your teens, as the years march along, the natural oils of the skin flow less and skin creams become necessary to keep age lines at a minimum around the eyes, mouth and on the neck. Also, as that thirtieth birthday comes and goes, concentrate your eating habits on the high protein diet that your physician will be glad to recommend. Eat fresh vegetables, lean broiled meats, whole grain breads and the like to help keep the body in top working condition. Heavy, rich foods — cream gravies, fried foods, desserts—are both the en emies of our figures and the fresh complexion that is so much a part of youthful appearance. Make this simple rule your “over 21” routine: less rich food for the stomach, more rich f -<od (cream) for the skin.

DODGERS AND BRAVES PLAYED BEST BALL IN JUNE New York (CNS) In the last months—from May 31st through July 4th—the Dodgers were still playing the best ball with 23 wins and 12 losses. Though this was not as good as their first month, it was still .657 ball and plenty enough to win a pennant Right behind them were the Mil waukee Braves. Paced by Aaron and Bruton, with an improved pit ching staff, the Braves have been coming on fast winning 19 against 14 losses. If it weren’t for the Dodgers’ big lead, they certainly could be more of a threat. The Giants in this period have been playing their worse ball. By contrast they have won only 14 and lost 19 games to drop to seventh place for this last month.

Eisen hower was urged last week to extend the doctrine of Abraham Lincoln to prevent the world from becoming “half free and half Colonial”, by Dr. Robert H. Johnson, Grand Exalted Ruler, Improved Benevolent Protective Order Elks of the World. Dr. Johnson’s organization, consist ing of more than a half million members, is the world’s largest .Negro fraternal organization. Here, for the purpose of ar ranging the itinerary for the National Grand Lodge Conven tion, the Grand Exalted Ruler plans to earmark the (Conven tion with a strenuous bid for world peace. In a letter sent to President Eisenhower; Dr. John son said the great hope of man kind today is for enduring peace, wars grow out of social injustice ices, poverty and greed. It must be the duty of every great statesman to support the funda mental principles of freedom and obtain these principles for all men without regard to race or color”. He continued, “all talk about stopping Communism is futile so long as Colonialism is permitted to exist. Asia and Af rica must be free and our allies must not be permitted to pro gress on American dollars with the intention of maintaining Co lonial empires on these two conti nents.” In his letter the Grand Exalted Ruler lauded the President for his position on non-participation of America in any Colonial wars but he asked him to take further steps in urging our allies to change their political policies be fore time runs out. “Africa has the raw material' and natural resources to strength-' en the free world against the' overflow of Communism. The greatest supply of uranium i known to the world is in Africa.1 Our chrome, cobalt, tin, rubber | and tungsten comes from sec-; tions of the earth inhabited by dark people who are waiting to | see if America will lead the way i to a free world,” he asserted. Dr. Johnson asked the Presi- j dent to arrange a conference j with our allies for the purpose of eliminating Colonialism. He t pointed out that there are some j eight hundred million people in, the world who are not committed j in the struggle between Commun-1 ism and Democracy. “ America can win the support! of these people by taking the leadership in a plan to wipe awayj Colonialism throughout the world,” he concluded. President, Board of Commiss ioners, of the District of Colum bia, Samuel Spencer, said: “Wei-' - , _i CHECK Cold ^Misery QUICKLY Millions use STANBACK for the discomforts of a common cold .. . as well as to relieve simple head aches, neuralgic and muscular aches and pains.

Everything, every chore seems to be twice as difficult, and most difficult of all is the preparation of family meals. That’s why a product like packaged pre-cooked rice is a blessing in so many ways. First of all, it requires no real “cooking.” That, of course, means less time for the home maker in the kitchen. Second, it has a high nutritive quality which makes it a “good food” for the entire family. And third, it is adaptable to so many other foods and flavors that it can be easily made into a main course by the simplest additions. For example, creamed tuna fish and rice are wonderful to gether. There is no fuss or both er in the preparation of either, and yet when you add a simple garnish or an herb - such as chopped chives - it becomes “company fare”. This, by the way, is an excellent suggestion for serving on the back porch or for a garden-type family meal. So, the next time you plan to eat out-o'-doors, check your pantry for such foods as canned meats or fish, be sure to have plenty of pre-cooked rice on hand, add a sauce or canned soup to these staples and you will be able to serve family and friends de licious meals with a minimum of effort. - Creamed Tuna Fish With Rice 1-1/3 cups (5-ounce package) packaged pre-cooked rice Vz teaspoon salt l-Vz cups boiling water 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup Vi cup milk 1 can (7 ounces) tuna fish, drained and flaked 2 to 3 tablespoons diced pimento (optional) dash of pepper 2 teaspoons lemon juice (op tional ) Method: Add packaged pre cooked rice and salt to boiling water in saucepan. Mix just to moisten all rice. Cover and re move from heat. Let stand 13 minutes. Meanwhile, combine soup and milk in saucepan. Heat, stirring occasionally. Add tuna fish, pim ento, and pepper. Mix and heat thoroughly. Add lemon juice and stir to blend. Makes 4 to 5 servings. _ Serve over the rice. Arrange rice in serving dish and top with the creamed tuna fish. Or use condensed cream of celery soup, cream of chicken soup, or tomato soup; omit lemon juice. Or use green pea soup; increase milk to 1 cup and omit lemon juice. Ice creams and sherberts are particularly popular during the summer months because they’re good and a pleasant way to cool off. For a wonderfully cooling dish, try this recipe for butter milk sherbert. Buttermilk Sherbert 2 cups buttermilk % cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanila 1/8 teaspoon salt 1 cup crushed pineapple (drain ed) Method: Mix buttermilk with all other ingriedients. Freeze quickly to a mush. Turn into a bowl and beat with egg beater. Return to tray and complete freezing. , There are few food desserts easier to make than this parti cular buttermilk sherbert, and once you’ve tasted it we know you’ll agree that it’s a wonderful way to get more milk into your diet. Apple Desserta Apple desserts can be made more colorful If you add some red cinna mon hearts to the apple before cook ing. Try the eandlei In apple sauoe, too.
