GOSSIP REGARDING

Nothing TO Show that Hall Has Beer

LINCOLN, Dec. Especial -Wanted-
Information regarding the much-taiked
OF petition OF 1000 names which was sup
posed TO convince DR.. p. l.. Hall that he
should stand for the nomination for gov
ernor on the democratic ticket
II was given out about a month ago
that Postmaster Ludi OF Wahoo and DIR.
Weber Of the same town had skirmished
around Saunders county and had secured
1000 democratic names to a petition
which was going TO be presented 20 DR..
Hall with the idea that he could not
refuse TO stand for the place in the face
OF such a showing.
The men were In Lincoln a short time
ago, but no tidings have come that they
were successful In convincing the doctor
that he should stand for something that
had all the eRrmRrks OF an empty honor
in the fact OF the growing nnti-demo-
cratic sentiment all over the country and
which was equally prevalent In Ne
braska-
Never Asked support.
DIR. Hall emphatically stated about
three months or more ago at n banquet
given by the democratic press OF the
state that he had never asked a man for
his political support In the past and he
never would. Later he just as emphati-
cally stated that he would not make a
campaign n nominated. In the face Of a
forlorn political hope. the democrats have
got to have a man at the head Of the
ticket who Is a good campaigner and
who is a good enough singer OF hot
atmosphere to be able to explain II ne
can why the democratic national ad-
ministratlon has failed TO make good
on Its promises to the people.
/ or course there VIII be candidates who
Will be glad to make the race just for
the advertising It will give them. But
UP to date none of them has looked very
good to the men who hold the reins over
the back OF the democratic donkey.
Not Yet in sight.
He must have a wide acquaintance and
mighty good stand-ln, in fact, so good
that he can attract support from out
side the party. But the man who can do
that has not appeared so far and the
fact that the man upon whom they pinned
their faith as being the Moses to lead
the badly demoralized army out OF the
wilderness will not say he will run. but.
on the other hand has given every evil
dence that he would not, has left an
aching void IN democratic hearts around
the state house that IL is hard TO fill.
For positions on the democratic ticket
below the governorship II is foregone
conclusion that Treasurer George Hall,
Auditor w. II. Smith, Attorney General
Willis Reed and Secretary OF State Charlie
Pool Will file for denomination.

FOES OF BRYANS
PLEASED BY MOVE
Maher and Crowd Tickled by Re-
fusal Of Lincoln Mayor to
Sign Petition.
THEY PUT SOMETHING OVER
lFrom q staff correspondent.l

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Dec, Especial -There is
a great deal Of chuckling under the
breath among opponents OF Mayor
Charles Bryan over the manner In which
he played directly into the hands of the
men who brought out the idea OF filing
the name Of President Wilson for a place
on the primary ballot for denomination
on the democratic ticket for the primary.
His refusal to sign the Wilson petition
appears 10 be just the very thing they
desired him to do. and II IL said that
when Colonel John @. Maher approached
the city hall with the petition in his
pocket he hoped as he had never
hoped before that Prince Charlie would
refuse to sign the petition. When he did
refuse, there was Joy sticking out all
over the countenance OF the colonel, and
he HE'D himself TO the house Of his
friends. and then and there they. with
one accord. sang songs Of praise and
lifted their voices in paeons OF Joy.
Colonel IL TicLIed.
The reason given by the mayor, that
he did not want TO embarrass the presi-
dent in his non-partisan program. tickled
the colonel immensely.
on the democratic ticket for the presi-
dency should be partisan" said Colonel
Maher. I'VE are not in sympathy with
Prince Charles idea that the man who
guns for office on the democratic ticket
should be non-partisan. We want dem
ocrats on our ticket. We have had
enough Of the wishy-washy kind Of poll
ticians running for office. ] believe that
a man running for office on the demo-
cratic ticket should be a democrat. with

office on any other ticket who thinks II
Is necessary TO his success 20 run on that
ticket. Il should be Just as necessary to
be a full-fiedged partisan OF that kind
without any ifs and ands' about It."
Must DO some ExDIaiping.
That the anti-Bryan men have pulled
off the smoothest thing in the political
game which has been put across Is rec
owiized by the most astute politicians.
Tho refusal OF Mayor Bryan puts him In
n position as being outside the demo-
cratic breastworks TO some extent. and

Youthful Cypriot

LONDON. Nov. 25.-The youthful Cyp-
riot is a difficult subject to educate. for
once he gets a bit of schooling he be-
comes too proud to work and let's his
parents support him. states a report from
the British authorities on the Island of
Cyprus.
Cyprus schools are in the towns. The
youths come from the country in large
part. They come in peasant garb. but
return in modern European clothes and
strongly imbued with the idea that 1t is
beneath their dignity TO lay hands to any
sort OF toll, even to fetching a pitcher
of water from the spring. They are even
encouraged in this idea by their parents.
As the result educated youths refuse to
do any work except clerical. and when
not employed they spend their days In
bed and their nights in cafes.
The Island Of Cyprus. which became q
British possession on the outbreak Of
the war with Turkey. was recently Of
fered to and refused by Greece as the
price of joining the allies In former
years 1t was celebrated for It's famous
wine, a desert wine of the nature of port,
but little known In Europe now. Large
supplies of live stock and of foodstuffs
have been purchased by the British gov

crop was almost a complete failure and
the wheat Disappointing But the high
price obtained for cereals and vegetables

farmers.

Yet it is obvious that life Is for labor
There is always an imperative call to
do something We are not here to SEN
timentaiize or dream-but to work
All recognize. in some measure at
least the necessity for physical and
Intellectual toll, but all do not recog-
nize that moral labor Is the most i'm
portant that our hands can find to do.
II Is to growth and efficiency in that
line of endeavor that our topic calls US
to consider.
What, then. is the moral labor we
have to do here in preparation for the
life to come?
II Is all comprised in two things.
First. the training of ourselves for
heaven.
Secondly. the training of others for
heaven.
These two purposes embrace the per-
manent ideals of all Christian En-

Strength to Strength.

The same principle applies in spirit
ual progress as in worldly advance
ment. The Christian endeavor that
counts Is through slow and toilsome
effort I'VE have not wings on which
to reach the heights of either worldly
or spiritual greatness. The law of
progress is stated by the psalmist:
They go from strength to strength"
From one degree of strength to an
other and higher degree They gain
added vigor as they proceed in the line
of duty and service.
1t Is important to note that the start
ing point Is strength-"from strength"
Although there is great weakness and
trailty in man, he does not begin en-
deavor from weakness, but from
strength that Is not his own. What he
accomplishes is by reason of the
strength impaired through the con-
seriousness that the everlasting arms
are around him"
He must feel that the foundation on
which he stands is strength, and that
the hand that upholds him is strength.
Increase and efficiency of Christian
Endeavor depends upon looking to
Christ for the power that can enable it
to go from strength to strength"

1t was to this grotto that the Savior
was in the habit of retiring to pray
with His disciples. to partake with
them His frugal repast, and to rest
after having worked all day at the sal

afforded Him welcome place for
prayer and shelter from the rain and
