George Sawyer of Western unanimously
was elected president of the Nebraska
Bankers association before the sixteenth
annual convention adjourned yesterday
afternoon at the Elks' club rooms.
]. C. French of South Omaha and WILL
lam Hughes of Omaha, treasurer and
secretary respectively, were retained In
those offices. The other elections were
to the executive council of the organiza~
tion. These were elected for period of
three years: Frank Thompson Of Albion,
William Rhoades Of Omaha, M w. Fol-
som of Lincoln, l.. P. Sorenson Of Eustts
and Thomas Murray of Dunbar. For a
term of one year w. II. Mcdonald was

pointed these men to the committees:
DR.. P. L. Hall of Lincoln, national finan-
cial legislation committed; Elmer Will
Jams of Grand Island, educational COM
mittee; c. o. Crosswait of David City,
membership committee.
Yesterday afternoons sitting was
marked by considerable discussion, the
principal point in which resulted in the
defeat by the country state bankers of a
resolution to the effect that the banking
laws of the state should be so amended
as to exclud from the guaranty of the
deposits provision any and all interest
bearing deposits. % &
Guarantee All Deposits.
George E. Hall, democratic candidate
for state treasurer, representative OF
the country state bank contingent led
the fight against the resolution. The
question had been discussed at the open
ing days sittings. Bankers Of the west
ern part of the state who have been
paying per cent interest on deposits
refused to reduce the amount because OF
competition from the national banks, all
eastern banks paying per cent interest.
Members of the Nebraska Bankers as
sociation viii be charged IS a year each
for the promotion Of farm experiment
work and general agricultural betterment
according to a resolution adopted by the
convention In the second days session.
The bankers occupied whole morning
in discussing farm methods and the
farmer. They resolved to inaugurate a
general agricultural education system IN
the state and work with the farmer for
the betterment of crop conditions.

riculture have wider place in Nebraska

SOME OF THE OLD TIME WAYS
ARE GOING OUT BECAUSE
BETTER THINGS HAVE
TAKEN THEIR
PLACE.

Many, many years ago, the old
time buster and the broom were used
exclusively. Why was this? 1t was
because the modern and more up-to-
date inventions had not taken place.
Now it is different. '"Tine brings
many changes" and along with these
changes, many great minds are
brought into existence.
We are showing on page Is Of

is almost a necessity for every house

ter only got the dirt from the sur
face of the floors, carpets. curtains,
etc. The cleaner gets not only the
dust and dirt from the surface, but
the suction in this little cleaner is so
great that it goes beneath the sur
face and gets the dust and live
germs that live in the center of your
carpets and curtains.

advertising space through the agency
Of Jacobs & Co., who control such
space in these papers, and among this
number is found the Gospel Advo-
cate. Commenting on the situation,
Mr.. Watson says: "Of course did
not expect the ad, to be accepted by
it is on other and broader ground.
where Romanists are so aggressive
and Professionals so cowardly?" We
are frank to say that if these Pro-
testant papers knew when they sold
their advertising space to Jacobs &
Co, that said company would act as
it has in this matter, few, if any, Of
them would have stood for it. There
fore, if they indorse this action upon
the part of that company, we are
frank to say that Mr.. Watson's sur
prise and criticism are we'll founded
If these papers continue to patroniZe
an agency which from coffercial or
any other reasons suppresses the
truth relative to the most colossal
organized enemy of Gods church on
earth, the people who oppose this
monster Of iniquity should rebel. Mr..
Watson is one of the most forceful
writer's Of this age, and with his
wide information and keen logic he
has dissected Roman Catholicism,
exposing the corruptions Of it's priest
hood as few men have done. These
articles should find a place in every
Protestant home, and Mr.. Watson
should be commended by every lover
of the truth for his mastery efforts
in laying bare this religious fraud,
and every patriotic citizen should
give full Endorsement to his work in
trying to uproot this menace to our
free institutions
Now, we wish it distinctly under
stood by Mr.. Watson and all others
concerned that no one connected
with the Gospel Advocate has the
least sympathy with the institution of
Roman Catholicism, and, therefore,
utterly repudiate the statement by
Jacobs & Co. that the Catholic Church
is "a Christian Church." or that she
is q" sister church" The Gospel
Advocate knows Of no such thing as
"sister" churches in the sense Of
denominationalism. Congregations
patterned after the New Testament
order may in a sense be termed
''sister congregations by reason of
the fact that they are identically alike
that is, the same in name, faith,
and practice. While We commend
Mr.. Watson for his earnestness and
zeal in exposing Roman Catholicism,
We could but wish for an exhibition
of his trenchant pen in the uprooting
of the many grave errors of Protest
antism. Protestant churches know
and recognized as religious denomi-
nations are from the very bosom Of
the Roman Catholic Church. While
all Of them teach more or less truth,
yet they cling to many of the tradi-
tons of Rome. If Mr.. Watson should
be convinced Of these errors, none
who know him will doubt f3r a
moment both his courage and ability
to attack them. Tom Watson is a
man who declares in no uncertain
sound his convictions without the
slightest fear OF the results.

Desiring to advertise our magazine,
I prepared the following inch ad,
worded: The Roman Catholic
Hierarchy and It's Pagan Idolatry
Exposed in Watson's Magazine,
Thomson, Ga. Price, 81 per year"
This advertisement was sent to an
agency through which I bought pub
licity when this magazine was first
started. The reply, this time, is as
"Jeffersonian Publishing Company.
Dear Sirs: We have yours OF the
twelfth inst, ordering one inch one
time in our list Of publications. We
would be pleased to handle this order,
but owing to the nature of the COPY
it will be impossible. We would be
glad to have an advertisement of
Watson's Magazine, but the ADVERTISE
ment should not attack a Christian
church if it is to be advertised in
Christian publications. Five or six
OF our publications are Roman Cath
Gle papers. You can readily see that
they would not care to handle this
copy attacking their own church. The
remainder Of our publications are
Protestant papers, and, of course, the
Protestant churches find much that
is offensive in the Roman Catholic
Church; but as they are all Christian
churches, we could not see the con-
sistency in their admitting anything
into their columns which would
attack plainly sister church, and
think that the copy would have to be
changed i'll order to make it suitable
for use in the religious papers.
This copy would altogether be
satisfactory with the exception of the
middle line. We doubt whether you
would care to make the change in
the copy that We suggest, so we
return the copy herewith.
Should you be able to favor us
with the copy which builds your own

tlan church in any Of it's forms, we

MEANING OF FAT HALF MAST"
At First Universal SymyboI Was
Taken Of Submission and Respect
For Enemy.

Perhaps you have noticed that
whenever a prominent person dies
especially If he Is connected with the
government, the flags on public build
lngs are hoisted only part Of the way
up, remarks the Toronto Mail and
Express. This Is called half mast
Did you ever stop to think what con
nection there could be between a flag
that was not properly hoisted and the
death Of great man?
Ever since f1ages were used in war
1t has been the custom to have the
flag OF the superior or conquering ma
tion above that of the inferior or van
pushed. When an army found itself
hopelessly beaten it hauled it's flag
down far. enough for the flag Of the
victors to be placed above 1t on the
same pole. This was a token not
only OF submission, but of respect.
In those days when a famous sol
der died flags were lowered out OF
respect to his memory. The custom
long ago passed from purely mill
tary usage to public life of all kinds,
the flag flying at half mast being a
sign that the dead man as worthy
OF universal respect. The space left
above 1t Is for the flag of the great
conqueror of all-the angel of death.

of Duke Robert of Normandy ("Rob-

ter. He was born in 1927. From early
boyhood he led life OF constant war
fare, peril and treachery. In order to
save his dukedom and his life from the
greed of neighboring potentates he
was forced to acts OF brutality and
crime. At length he was safely estab-
lished in his own realm and looked

The English king, Edward 1.-The Con-
fessor." was childless. William per-
suaded or bribed Edward to bequeath
to him the throne of England.
Edward died early in 1865. The
English decided, rightfully, that no
king could legally bequeath his crown
to anyone. So they elected Harold
their king. At once William demand
, ed the crown. Harold refused to give
it up. William stirred up an invasion
of England by the Norwegians and
landed a Norman host on the British
shores at about the same time. Har-
old thrashed the Norwegians, then
hurried his tired army to Hastings to
meet William. The Normans were
victorious; and in London, on Christ
mas day, 1866, William was crowned
king of England. There he built a
fortress that later became the famed
Tower OF London"
His conquest OF England was piece
of bare highway robbery, with no
shadow OF moral right to justify It.
Yet, in the end, it was the best thing
that could have happened to the co,tn-
try. For 1t infused new blood into the
rough Saxon strain. modernized the
isolated old-fashioned British and
brought them into touch with the
world at large and with progress
To create a royal hunting park for
himself (the New Forest) he destroyed
villages, churches, converts and farms
for a space of thirty miles in Hamp-
shire and had a desolate track stocked
with game for his own pleasure. The
evicted inhabitants were turned away
to starve. Williams fathers had been
sea rovers. He had chosen to become
a land pirate; merciless, grasping; a
lawless lawmaker.

In 1887, he captured and burned the
town OF Nantes. AS he was riding
through the city's hot embers his

TO the full-armed "HuS-Carles" OF the
royal bodyguard, The leader was Har-
cd, Saxon king OF England. He had
rushed his troops by long marches to
this spot, to check the advance OF a
Norman invader.
In the plain below, toward the hill
side, marched the invading host. Far
in advance of their line rode the Nor
man minstrel, Taillefer, gaudily
dressed, throwing his sword into the
air and catching 1t; singing loudly the
Death Chant of Roland" 1t was this
minstrel who struck the first blow in
the battle of Hastings and who was
first to fall.
The Normans flung themselves upon
the Saxons, only to be sent Keeling
back. Again and again they charged
vainly against that solid battle line.
The Saxons hurled them Off, shouting:
'"Out! Quit"
At last the willy Norman leader,
had failed. He drew off his soldiers in
seeming retreat. The headstrong Sax
sons, disobeying Harolds orders, broke
their own line to dash in disorderly
pursuit of the fleeing foe. The Nor
mans suddenly turned and charged
through the broken line, gaining the
hilltop, scattering the Saxons, Staying
Harold and-winning England!
1t was big day with Destiny. 1t
was also day wherein Might con-
