PIONEERS HOLD THEIR
MID-WINTER PICNIC
Observe Washington's Birth
day With Program and
Entertainment.
MANY PATRIOTIC TALKS
The Douglas County Association of
Nebraska Pioneers spent practically
all yesterday in the observance of
Washington's birthday. They made
the occasion the date for holdinR their
annual mid-winter picnic, which
started at 10 o'clock in the morning.
From that hour until 1 o'clock in the
afternoon members and friends were
entertained in the association rooms
on the ground floor of the courthouse.
During this morning there was a
sort of an informal gathering, and at
noon refreshments, consisting of
sandwiches, ice cream, cake ami cof
fee were served in the rooms of the
historical society. Something like
400 persons partook of the refresh
ments. During the afternoon the entertain
ment was transferred to court room
No. 1. and there President O'Brien
turned the affair over to iX H. Mer
cer, chairman of the occasion. As an
introduction to the program, stand
ing, the pioneers and their friends
sang "America," John A. McCreary
singing the solo part, with Miss
Amanda Tebbins at the piano.
Program la Changed.
Judge Woodrough of , the federal
court having been unavoidably de
tained elsewhere, it became necessary
to make a slight change in the carry
ing out of the program. The judge
was to have been the first speaker,
delivering an address on "George.
Washington," to be followed by Cap
tain Charles E. Adams, speaking on
the "Continental Soldier." Their
speaking positions were reversed, and
in his address the captain paid a high
tribute to the soldiers of the conti
nental army, yet the tribute that he
paid to the United States soldier of
subsequent years was none the less
glowing.
The captain pictured the boys as
the flower of the land, soldiers fight
ing for the principles laid down by
the constitution and not as hired men
fighting in the countries of Europe.
The address of Captain Adams was
not one that would nave been approved
of by the kaiser, for during his re
marks, he took occasion to say that
"we are not a people who will take
our orders from the man across the
sea and if any man, or woman in this
country cannot subscribe to the laws
of our land and the governing princi
ples, he, or she should remember that
the gates ot k,asne uaruen awins on
ward as well as in. If they feel that
they are not with us, let them at the
earliest moment secure their passage
back to the land from whence they
came.
Will Follow President.
We arc a people of one country,
livinir under one flag and having but
one language and a desire for peace,
but if the great questions now at
stake must be settled by war, we are
reiHv tn follow the president m Ins
every desire to protect American
citizenship. Wc are people wlio are
not going to sit quietly by and have
one man dictate to us tnai tnc uimh
is closed to our commerce ana traae.
Frequently during his remarks he
wa annlauded. and at the close of
his address he was loudly cheered.
Judge Woodrough. speaking on
George Washington," detailed his
career from his youth to the time ol
his retirement from public life, re
ferring to incidents that indicated that
he was one of the greatest men the
world has ever produced.
During the afternoon mere were
readings by Mrs. Elliott and Miss
Zella Toney, vocal solos by Chief of
Police Dunn, Mrs. D. H. Dunham,
Miss Amanda Tebbins and John A.
McCreary, and instrumental music by
Miss Augusta Mengedoht. ...

Thousands Attend
"Safety First" Flag
Raising at Smelter
A rousing demonstration by a brass
hand and hundreds of cheering work
men marked the hoisting of a big
"Safety First" flag Thursday after
noon at the American Smelting and
Refining company's plant. Sixth and
Douglas streets. Ollicials of the com
pany had awarded the flag as a tro
phy in recognition of the Omaha
plant's record in safety and welfare
work among its men last year. No
other among the twenty-four plants
of the company in the t'nited States
had so few accidents per thousand
men, nor showed such a notable ad
vance in "safely first" work.
A large part of the smelter's 1,100
employes were allowed to leave their
work to attend the flag raising. The
green trophy flag, IOxJO feet in size,
was hoisted immediately under the
smelter's 20xj()-foot Old Glory. As
the two big emblems were run up the
flagstaff by Chief Engineer R. N. Rob
ertson, everybody stood witli heads
bared, while the hand played "Stars
and Stripes Forever."
Manager W. T. I'age, Superinter'l
ent Arthur E. Hall, W. R. Rasmussen,
head of the safety and welfare depart
ment, and the superintendents of the
various departments led their men in
the three mighty cheers that followed.
Mr. Kasmussen read a congratulatory
letter from the head officials of the
company.
Others prominent at the affair in
cluded Mrs. Grace Wheeler, a visit
ing nurse in charge of the first aid
work at the smelter; Drs. A. B. Som
ers and W. H. Taylor, company physi
cians, and the following department
superintendents and officials: F.. IV
Lefferts, W. P. Olds, R. H. l'rice,
Robert Ross, J. O. Bettcrton and
George C. Mclntyre.
Operating the Omaha plant 117
consecutive days without an accident
was one of the 1916 "safety first" rec
ords of which Manager Page is espe
cially proud.
CalvinDenounces
Law to Limit the
Length of Trains
Salt Lake City, Utah, Feb. 22.
"Laws limiting the number of cars
on trains are vicious at any time and
particularly under present conditions
in the country when the railroads are
trying to moves the necessities of
life," declared President E. E. Calvin
of the luiiotr Pacific system here to
day. "The passing of such legisla
tion would he little less than crimi
nal. It is unfortunate that the public
has not a better understanding of the
present question.
1 he litan legislature has hetore it
a proposed utilities law which lim
its the length of freight trains to
fifty cars and Mr. Calvin's remarks
arc taken as a protest against the
passage of the bill.
It is a well-known tact, he con
tinued, "among officials of the rail
roads, and employes also, that the
proposed legislation is solely to
force the railroads to employ more
men by running more trains. It is
rarely that I have anything to sav
about prospective legislation, hut this
proposed law before the Lltah leg
islature is vicious and uncalled for."

How to Avoid Stomach Troubles.
Digestion begins in the mouth.
Food should be thorougl ly masti
cated. Your food should be suited to
your age and occupation. People of
sedentary habits should eat little meat,
but should drink an abundance of
water, especially when they first get
up in the morning and between meals.
When you feel dull and stupid after
eating, that shows you have eaten
too much. The bowels should be
kept regular. When needed take a
dose of Chamberlain's Tablets. They
will improve your digestion and move
the bowcli. Advertisement.

day arc celebrating the greatest vic
tory temperance has ever scored in
the passage yesterday in congress
of the bill prohibiting the shipment
of liquor into dry states. If the
bill is as drastic as is believed
by dr leaders in the legislature, no
.tate legislation will be required to
nake Iowa dry.
Senator 0. Y. Whittnore of Ottum-
wa, leader of the drys in the Iowa
senate, says that the law will prohibit
the shipment of liquor into Iowa tor
personal use or for sale.
ror tins reason the pill he has been
working on limiting the amount of
liquor a man may have in his pos
session in Iowa will be abandoned.
We will not need a law limiting
the amount of liquor a person may
have in his possession in Iowa, as
wc will be protected by the federal
law passed vestcrday." said Senator

subject now in the senate committee

didatcs for delegates to the county

by Senator Foster of Guthrie county.
