The fight on Tawney, who has served

Bryan Breaks with Dahlman

Hon. w. J. Bryan has come out
against his old friend, James C. Dahl
man, for governor of Nebraska. This
is wdat he says:
"He is making his appeal on nom
partisan lines, with the liquor question
as the sole issue. His courage is to be
commended. 1t is an honest way of
making campaign, although it COM
pels him to separate himself from
friends who do not agree with him and
to rely for speech making upon those
Democrats and Republicans who take
his view of the subject.

going backward would not only con-

subject, but would embaraass me in

The second annual reception of the
Women's Home Missionary Society to
the elderly mstrons of Sedgwick county
occurred at the beautiful home of Mrs.

The house was beautifully decorated
in blue and gold, the colors of the
society. In each room the color scheme
was carried out, on the small tables were
blue vases containing gold flowers and
resting in the center of the dining room
table was large aquarium of gold fish.
Everywhere one would see a profusion
of blue and gold.
he guests began arriving at 2 o.
Ek and by $3.50 all guests were pres
ent. The guest list was larger than
last year. there being about 66 alto
gether. The two youngest were 7s. the
next two youngest were 76 and the old
est was 60, making An average of 6s
years young for all.
The guests were entertained by vocal
and instrumental selections after which
several members OF the society sang
favorite hymns selected by the guests.
A three course luncheon was served
consisting of sandwiches, pickles and
salad, cake, sherbert and coffee. Owing
to the large number present it was nee.
essary to make it lap luncheon. II
had been planned to serve luncheon or
the lawn, but this could not be done
on account or the rain the night before

con each guest was presented with 8
beautiful souvenir of the occasion ir

used for all those who cared to ride and

desire to thank those who were SO gen.
erous with their autos. and also the
ladies' who used their machines to as
sist great many guests to and from
the reception.
The guests who were sick and unable
to attend were remembered with q

To say that the reception was grand
success would be putting it mildly.
Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves
to the utmost.

An attempt was made to secure q
photograph of the guests, but owing
to the high wind good outdoor picture
was impossible. This was a disap-
pointment of the society as they had
planned to secure picture of every
gathering. Il
The society informs US that they in
tend to make this an annual affair.
And why not? What work is more
beautiful than helping make the lives
of these old people brighter? We only
wish that these affairs would occnl
more often.
