When Sergeant Flood and some OF
his fellows returned the people OF
Morris gave them most enthusiastic
welcome, but the ministers refused to
take any part in it.
Memorial Day came and not one OF
the soldiers who have returned took
part in the parade, under the leader
ship Of ministers, nor in the exer-
cises after it. Nor did any man who
had served in the Navy, for the sail
ors could not stand by and see very
pretty row going on without taking a
hand i'm on the side that appealed to
them. The parents of only four sol
diers and sailors appeared at the
Memorial Day exercises and they were
there because they are officers OF the
Grand Army or the Womens Relief
Committee.
Soldiers are coming home to Morris
every day; all have seen active SER
vice, some being wounded. No time
is lost in telling them OF the minis
ters' action in regard to Sergeant
Flood, and if they pray at all it is moi
in these churches.

Lieutenant Phillips says while he
was at Treves a motion picture vas
shown and during its progress the
first two Americans to reach Berlin
from the army of the United States
were flashed on the screen, with the
information that they were rom
North Carolina The young officer
did not remember the names Of the
two fighters.
However, the Tar Heels went as
order1ies in advance Of party of
intelligence officers soon after the
Americans took up the occupation of
the Rhineland. They were sent ahead
of the official party to make arrange
ments for it's coming.
Thus two boys of the old North
State were the first Of the American
Army to reach Berlin-the goal fol
which the Americans were fighting
and which they expected to reach
| the only thing preventing them being
the signing Of the armistice. Sc
North Cardinals sons not only have
the distinction Of helping bring the
war to quick end by breaking tbs
Hindenburg line, but also Of having
beaten the sons of other States in the
Army to the capitol Of the former
Kaiser's domain.
| Lieutenant Phillips says this is au.
thentic, and it can be vouched fol
that Tar Heels got to Berlin first.

DISH OF LOCUSTS JUST LIKE
TERRAPIN
CrOp This Year Not AS Palatable AS
I'm 1902. Says Major Thomas b.
Catch.

Major Thomas B. Catch of Raspe-
burg, who has tasted the 17-year 10
Gusts and who recalls previous visits
Of the insects, is of the opinion that
the crop this season is not so vigor-
GUS as that Of 1902 and not SO pala-
table.
Like terrapin," he said describing
the stewed locusts. Like terrapin in
appearance-that is, not by any means
inviting to the eye. The appeal is to
the palate. 1t is a flavor peculiar in
deed. There are some persons who
do not like terrapin the first time
they see it served. And other foods
would be unknown if somebody did
not venture to do the tasting,
To eat locusts il requires two or
three persons, and then nobody
wishes to refuse. That's the way
came to try them. But I do not be-
lieve the locusts now are as good as
those of IL years ago. / have noticed
many dying, and, Of course, no one
would care to eat a locust of that
kind. On previous locust years there
has not been this early death, and
on that account / think the damage
will be less than in previous years.

Ministers Refused To Welcome SWEET
SOldierS-Then Things Begin TO
Hum.

Morris, Ill, June 9.-So!diers re-
turned from overseas have taught q
bitter lesson to five ministers who
have carried their interference with
personal liberty too far to suit the
doughboys. BY the use of an entirely
new weapon-a boycott of churches
they have compelled four of these
clergymen to apologize and the fifth
is still feeling it's effects.
| All the clergymen are leaders in the
Anti-Saloon League and the Pron1bi-
ton movement, and in general what
the soldiers call "the uplift."
The leader of the other side has
been Sergt. Frank Flood, lately OF

He was the first man in Grundy coun-

plOyment i'm Miss Cavell's hospital at

American War, and in the great war

Kimball, professional adviser to the
Nebraska State Capitol commission,
the president of the Nebraska chap
ter of the American Institute of
Architects, Alan Mcdonald, has
called a special meeting of the chap

height of buildings in the city, and

REFUSE TRUCKS

FEDERAL ROADS
Nebraska Engineer Unable to
Secure Vehicles Awarded
to State by War
Department.
RYE C. SNYDER
(staff Correspondent Of The Omaha Bee,


Washington, Aug. s. Especial
Telegram. State Engineer John
son on leaving for Lincoln today
reluctantly admitted that his mis-
sion to Washington to obtain a
promise from the War department
to Immediately move the tractors
allotted to Nebraska was a flat fail
ure. Mr.. Johnson ran up against
decision of the judge advocate
general of the army to the effect
that the rider to the postoffice ap-
preparation bill made the ALLEGATION
of tractors and other horseless We
hicles, the War department had de-
cided to allot to the states in the
interest OF good roads, impossible,
and superseded the section in sun
dry civil bill giving authority to
the department, although the solicit
tor for the department of agricul-
ture has decided differently, accord
ing to Nebraska's chief engineer.
There are ga good road projects
underway covering more than
900 miles and unless tractors and
trucks are forthcoming the season
will be too far advanced to do any
road work this year, which is a
great disappointment to Mr.. John
son, who saw large opportunity
for splendid work this season when
it was announced that in the allo-
cation of tractors and trucks owned
by the War department and now
not needed Nebraska was allotted
443 trucks, 50 tractors, II Fords and
II other makes of passenger auto
Judge Kinkaid said today after
a conference with Mr.. Johnson that
he would endeavor to get the Ne
braska delegation to start a cam
paign to secure these tractors and
trucks for Nebraska, as the good
roads movement has taken firm hold
on the state and it would seriously
retard the work if the War depart
ment material could not be made
available.

for $4,000, will now give bond for
$4,000. Secretary Leo Stuhr of the
department of agriculture, who as
food and oil commissioner gave a
bond for $4,000, will give the same
now; Secretary Hart of the depart
ment of trade and commerce. who
gave a bond for $4,000 as secretary
OF the banking board, will give the
same bond in his new position. Sec
rotary Johnson, who as state engi-
neer gave a bond for $4,000. will
now as secretary of the department
Of public works, give the same bond

Frank Kennedy, former labor COM
missioner, and H. H. Antics, the

Under the new law such boards

with, but the two big boards, edu-
cational lands and funds and the
equalization board, will still stand
being constitutional boards.
The secretary of finance will have
considerable jurisdiction over taxa
ton matters, having the authority
to require certain things to be done.
but the assessment board will
handle matters of levies and valua-

Omaha Company Protests
Action of Hooper Rival

Lincoln, Aug. 5.-The Continent
tai Gas and Electric corporation,
which has an office in Omaha, has
filed a protest with the State Rail
way commission against the Hooper
Electric Light Co., in which it
charges that the latter company has
violated an agreement and order of
the commission in that in the build
ing of a transmission line by both
companies from Fremont to Hooper
it was stipulated that one mile of
the line should be built jointly and
the same poles used.
The Continental company now
claims that the Hooper company
built the line first and that now the
complaining company cannot put
up its wires without placing them
10 feet above the wires of the
Hooper company, which, it charges,
is a dangerous thing to do.
