Lt. Lester Kinsey. Georgo Buck.
Three former employes of the
Burgess-Nash company, have recent
ly returned from "over there" and
are now again at their old positions.
Lt. Lester Kinsey was sent to
Camp Cody, and in October, 1917,
was commissioned second lieutenant.
In May, 1918, he was promoted to
first lieutenant and sent to Fort Sill,
where he went through the school
of fire. lie was sent overseas with
the One Hundred Twenty-seventh
field artillery and returned recently
to take up his old position in the
main office of the Burgess-Nash
company.
Lawrence O'Connors was sta
tioned at Camp Funston, and later
sent to Toule, France, where he en
tered action immediately. He was in
the St. Jlihiel and Verdun battle, also
in the Argonne-Meuse drive and it
was during this drive that he was
gassed and sent to a base hospital,
where he remained until January,
when he returned home and i9 again
in the employ of the Burgess-Nash
Sergt. O'Connors.
company. He was with the Three
Hundred Thirty-fifth infantry.
By some strange coincidence
Lawrence O'Connors and George
Buck were wounded in the same bat
tle and within three days of each
other, although they were in differ
ent divisions.
George Buck, also stationed at
Camp Funston, with the Three Hun

pany, before he went "over there,"
being-sent by the northern route or
by the way of Halifax. He came to
England and crossed the channel,
landing at La Harve. He went into
training for about two months and
from that time until he was wound
ed, which was just three days be
fore the signing of the armistice, he
was in constant action. He took
part in the battles of St. Mihiel and
the Argonne. After being wounded
he was sent to base hospital No. 34
where he remained until January 27.
He is at present visiting his parents,
but will be back in his old position
in the men's clothing department at
the Burgess-Nash company.

How to Plan, Locate
Home Food Gardens
CHIROPRACTOR
Ethel Thrall
Maltby
(Palmer Graduate)
312 Beg BUjf. Doug. 3072.
The farmer generally selects the
choicest plot of ground on the farm
for his vegetable garden, and no
pains arc spared to make the land
rich and productive. The city or vil
lage gardener, on the other hand,
has little or no choice as to the char
acter of the soil or its location. It
is a question with him of taking the
available land and doing the best
he can with it. The land at his dis
posal oftfn is shaded during a por
tion of the day, and the soil fre
quently consists of hardclay, refuse
accumulated from building oper
ations, or materials that have been
dumped upon the land. It is possi
ble, however, to grow many of the
garden vegetables under adverse
conditions. Results obtained by
many city gardeners during the
last two years are considered truly
remarkable by specialists of the
United States Department of Agri
culture.
In casting about for a location for
the garden, the back yard or home
plot should be given first consider
ation, the specialists say. As a gen
eral rule, a location near the house
is most desirable. In the first place,
f the garden is near, it can be
worked during snort periods of
available time; then it is more con
venient for gathering the vegetables
as they are wanted for use; and fin
ally the garden can be better pro
tected from molestation-
Vacant Lots Often Good.
If the back yard or other ground
near the dwelling is too small, is
shaded during the day, or if the soil
is of such a character that vege
tables -cannot be grown upon it, the
use of a vacant lot in the neighbor
hood is recommended.
Don't locate the garden on soil
that is so thin and where the rocks
are so near the surface that the gar
den will burn out during the sum
mer. Don't attempt to grow a gar
den on land that is more cinders and
rock than soil. Don't pbnt a garden
under or near large trees that will
not only ' shade the crops, but, ir
addition, draw all the moisture and
plant food from the soil. Don't
plant a garden on land that over
flows. The ideal garden spot is seldom
found, but it is often possible to find
a location' that embodies the more
important points and then to supply
the others.
Make Plan Before Planting.
A definite plan for the garden
should be drawn on paper before
any planting is done. First, deter
mine the exact dimensions of the
available land; then ascertain whic'l;
parts of the garden will be be.f
adapted to certain crops, especially
those that require a large amount
of 'sunshine. Outline the garden
plan on paper and sketch in the
crops that are to be planted upon
each part. ,
In planning the garden it should
be borne in mind that certain crops.
such as lettuce, radishes, and early
beets, can frequently be grown in
the same rows with other crops and
be removed before the main crop
attains sufficient size to require the
entire space. It should also be re
membered that carrots, beets, salsify,
arly turnips, parsnips, and all crops
of that type may be grown in rows
12 to 18 inches apart and will oc
cupy a comparitively small amount
of space if grouped together. The
taller growing crops such as pole
beans, tomatoes trained to stakes,
and sweet corn should be planted
at one side of the garden where
they will not shade the smaller
crops.
Arrange Rows for Convenience.
It is generally conceded that the
rows should run north and south;
however, it is more important to
arrange the rows for convenience
of cultivation than for exposure to
the sunshine.
Due consideration should be giv
en to both companion and succes
sion cropping. By companion crop
ping, thei plan of planting two or
more crops together and removing
those that mature first is followed.

No. 412.
In Omaha was born the notion
"Love must fully be defined."
This to do has set in motion
All Nebraska's brains combined.
By the rich, the wise, the lowly
Love can ne'er cornered be.
Love is not a thing for barter.
As chattels are or property.
Love's the spring of clean ambition;
It helps to reach the highest peak
He who though on humble mission
To duty tendest nobly meek.
Love was known to Thor and
Belder;
No new-born frills are seen in
love.
Love was known in old Valhalia,
Will be known in heaven above.
Love is not a Meeting passion;
By swine should not be undertrod.
Love is pure, is high, is holy,
Its fountain is the soul of God.
No. 416.
Love is a flower born in the heart,
daily unfolding, joy to impart.
Quoted.
No. 420.
''In the gray of the morning they
saw a house floating down, and on
its top a human being; and a few
men went out to the rescue in a lit
tle boat, and they found there a
mother, a woman, and they wanted
to rescue her and she said: No, I
am going to stay wiiere l am. i

house.' 'Quoted from Ingersoll on
"Orthodoxy."
No. 424.
Love is that attribute of humani
ty that links us with divinity; for
"God is love." It creates self-sacri
fice. "Go so loved the world that he
gave lt we have love we will
give of ourselves of everything
for the beloved object. Love of God,
mother love, neighborly love, love of
country, all cause the gift of self.
Love is what makes happiness. We
can endure all things for and with
those we love. There is that other
love that young people think consti
tutes all of lite. It sheds a roseate
hue over all things; beautifying and
enobling everything it touches. The
love that helps us to forget or count

they are shared with the beloved.
The love that causes two people to

hand linked in hand, content.
which means so much though not
spoken, the care's and worries of the
day are forgotten in the sweet wel
come and cheerful greeting which
awaits him. Love overlooks the lit
tle errors of life which often meet
us and they are covered with little
kindness and attentions that are
mounted on wings of love which
over-shadow the home wherein the
home-maker works with loving
thoughts and hands to make the
home an eden where love reigns
sublime in all its loveliness. True
love never dies.

No. 428.
To know that you need some one
person so much that no matter
where you go you cannot be content
or happy without knowing of this
person's welfare, to feel that they
need you and that you can help
them and forgive them, no matter
what their faults may be; and to
know that after they are gone, there
is one spot in your heart left sacred
to their memory one place in your
heart that no one else can take
this is love. And this is the feeling
a mother has for her child because
she knows the true meaning of the
word "love."
No. 436.
Love, which is sublime, a sacred
thought, a divine feeling (that one
cannot explain), one to be cherish
ed in our own breast, to be locked
in our own hearts only as it is met
ed out to the one who holds the key
and unlocked the door to the most
sacred thing we possess, love,
which has passed from our hearts
only to the one we hold most dear
to hold and care for in all of its
sweetness and as the two loving
hearts are united in one. Love still
is the emblem that 13 carried into
the home, the sacred abode of love
which still holds sway and as the
protector and provider enters in
from his daily toil love greets him
with a smile and perhaps a carress
No. 380.
Love is the yearning of the soul
Love is the satisfying of the yearn
ing soul. Some may love sin. Some
love to do good. Love may lead in
many directions. Depends largely
on our training. If we have been
troincd and taught to love God su
premely and we do something that
is wrong we will not be satisfied.
Love is the satisfying and rest of
the yearning of the soul. Divine
love applied to every soul and this
would be heaven.
No. 444.
I went to church one Sunday. Just
beyond the city you can find it. The
open road is its aisle, the growing
grass its carpet, yon lofty hill its
pulpit, the trees its pillars and the
azure vault its roof. The whisper
ing winds were its organ and the
singing birds its choir. God preached
the sermon and the text was the one
word, "Love."
I cannot repeat the discourse but
its lesson clings to my memory. It
is this: "Love is that which impels
the lover to seek the greatest good
for the beloved, and to be content
even though that greatest good takes
the beloved away forever."
No. 372.
Love is the light ani' sunshine of
life. We are so constituted that. we
cannot fully enjoy ourselves or any
thing else unless sora: one we love
enjoys it with us. Even if we are
alone we store up our enjoyment Jn
hope of sharing it hereafter with
those we love.
Love lasts through life, and
adapts itself to every age and cir
cumstance; in childhood, for father
and mother; in manhood, for wife;
in age, for children, and throughout
for brothers and sisters, relations
and friends.
Love fills men with affection, and
takes away their disaffection, mak-

of a weak or overworked stomach;
they do the work while the stomach

and those whose environment brings
them in contact with the rich food
