A Correction
Dear sir A report is in circulation
to the effect that in a lecture on Veracity
last month at the University of Chicago
I taught that under certain circum
stances lying is justifiable This report
is absolutely false and without founda
tion Some careless reporter musthave
ascribed to mo a view which I mentioned
onlv to refute it In the lecture re
ferred to I maintained with all logic and
warmth at my command that lying is
never justifiable under any circum
stances of for any purpose whatever
No other idea of my meaning could have
occurred to attentive listener
Will you be good enough to publish
this correction Yours

Will Plant Large Acreage
It is an encouraging fact that the
Farmers who planted sugar beets this
season have practically all signified their
purpose to plant an increased acreage
next season The sugar beet industry
may well be encouraged by all interested
In the development of this section of
the state
The South Platte country will doubt
less eventually have a beet sugar factory
perhaps just as soon as a sufficient
acreage of beets can be secured to pro
vide the product for a factory and
McCook must be on hand when that
time comes
