SIX DROWNDED
IN NORTH PAWNEE

NC hAoot tSAhfosS oha hSNhN h'Eh1
Ing tragedy that ever visited this
section took place at the Jacob Wei
sci crossing of the North Pawnee,
about twenty miles northeast of
Raymer. last Thursday night.
Arthur Kestler Of Mead. a little
hamlet thirty-fve miles southwest
Of Greeley passed through Raymer
Thursday evening in a large Olds
eight cylinder car on his way to yis-
1t his brother-in-law, Walter Stew
art north and east Of Stoneham.
With him In the car were his wife
and mother and four children, rang
ing In az efrom baby OF four or
six months to boy OF eight years.
At Raymer they had stuck in the
mud and helped out and they were
urged to remain here for the night
and resume their journey in the
morning. but they tried to find
chains for the car and continue the
trip. The chains we're not found, but
the trip was resumed.
They reached the Pawnee at the
Weisel crossing about ten o'clock or
later. Here the big car became fast
In the sand, OF the Pawnee creek
bed.
Leaving the car. Mr.. Kestler went
to the house OF Jacob Weisel. just a
short distance from the creek, to OBJ
tain help In dislodging the car. Mr.
Weisel Informed him that he had
only small ponies and that they were
not capable Of pulling the large car
from the creek basin. He urged Mr.
Kestler to take the women and chill
dren from the car and to stay at his
house during that night. Mr.. Kestler
however, replied that the children
were sleeping and that the car was
loaded with numerous small articles
belonging to the family and decided
to leave the party while he went to
the Stewart home to obtain assist
ance. a distance Of about five miles.
Within a very few minutes, Mr..
Weisel heard an ominous rumbling
and as he rushed to the door there
was q livid fash Of lightning the
creek was filed ten feet deep with
an avalanche Of water and neither
car nor members Of the party could
be seen. He Immediately started In
his car for the home of James Craig
to find help. Mr.. Kestfer. meanwhile
having made the trip to the home Of
his brother-in-law on foot. was warn
ed'of danger and he and Mr.. Stewart
returned about o'clock In Mr.. Stew
arts car, to find no trace OF the car
or its occupants.
Searching parties were organized
to look for the unfortunates.
At first hopes were entertained
that the occupants Of the car might
be on the opposite bank. This hope
was vain, for In the morning light
the body Of Donald four and a half
years old was found washed by he
rapid current about 400 yards from
the automobile, which was washed
down the stream and turned over
several times.
Mrs Anna Kestler, the grand
mother. and Florence. a girl Of about
two and q half years was found near
the Peterson crossing. Friday even
ing.
The wife and mother OF the child
rem, Mrs Nina Kestler and the baby
were found Saturday morning on the
A. w. Hand farm.
The body Of q boy eight years old
had not been recovered when this
was written.
A cloud burst occurred near the
Buttes Thursday evening and the Igo
was Raging torrent and this runs
into the Pawnee.
A large number Of people from
\ Mead came 10 assist In the search
5for the bodies.

STEEL MASTER BEGAN
TO SAVE WHEN YOUNG
Recognized That Success Lay in Sound
nvestment-Safes Security in
World Is Now Offered By
Government.

Andrew Carnegie died not long ago.
leaving behind him 100000 600. He
1ad given away about S300,0G0,000 in
an effort to avoid the reproach Of
dying rich.
It is probable that the high cost CT
living gave the "steel master" little
worry during the latter half Of his
life, but it is certain that in his boy
hood the prices Of the necessaries OF
life were vital factors. And Andrew
Carnegie in his early years met the
cost of living with the same remedy
which Americas leaders, headed by
President Wilson, are now putting
forth as the bisic principle Of the
fight to withstand the menace that
turks in the soaring prices of today.
That remedy is thrift-the practice OF
saving, the elimination OF waste and
sound investment.
In the days when Andrew Carnegie.
14-years old, earned $120 week as
q bobbin boy in an Allegheny City
cotton mill, and later when he earned
SLIPS a month as a telegraph mes
senger boy, the cost Of living meant
much to him. He had little margin
for saving. But he did save. There
were few opportunities for the small
saver to make safe investments. Sc
curities were not issued in small de-
nominations. There were no Thrift
Stamps CT War Savings Stamps,
backed by the government, into which
the meager proceeds Of thu Scotch
boys thrift could be conyc-..G.
But Andrew Carnegie at the age OF
20 determined upon safe investment.
ss"rnGast a0cur:ties that offerc i
were 10 shares Of stock in IN express
COMPANY worth $500. Carnegie had ID
borrow p.rt Of the money he paid.
But he VS. convinced that savings ~
ing idle Gsre not performing their
proper function.
The American man or woman, boy
or girl CT tod&y does not have to Dor
row to add ID the savings fund in Or
der to find safe investment. The gov
eminent makes sound security in the
form Of Savings Stamps, Trtasury
Savings Certificates, and war bonds
available to every saver who will be-
gin to practice thrift by the regular in
vestment Of sums as small as 20
cents.
Every American today has a better
opportunity for success than lay be-
fore AnGr-w Carnegie when he faced
the worl1.

NOW AND THEN

What is a dollar? Foolish Que~-
tion-you say? Not at all these
days of H. C. L. and profile ering.
Certainly. a dollar isn't what it was,
ten years ago. 1t isn't what it will
be five years from now
A dollar is what you can get for
it in beans, butterflies or bunk-no
more, no less. A dollar wouldn't be
worth anything if you couldn't get
anything for it.
Ten years ago you bought, say,
bunk at one dollar portion. Now
bunk costs two dollars. That
doesn't mean it has doubled in val
ne. It. means that your dollar is
worth half what it was ten years
ago.
This is, therefore, not the time
10 spend too many Of your dollars.
They will bring you only half OF
what they are worth. This. is the
tine to ave them.
They will bring more later on.
That is the history of dollars. Val
ues run in cycles. AS surely as
you live five years dollar will be
worth more than it is now. Maybe
twice as muh. So when you save
dollar now you are perhaps saving
two dollars. Treat dollars as you
would any other commodity. Buy
them when they are cheap.
Stick every dollar you can into
War Savings Stamps. Carrying 4
per cent interest compounded
quarterly, a War Savings Stamp
bought this month for 1922 will be
worth SIS January l, 1924. By 1924
il the dollar is worth twice as much
as ii :, now you will really have
ten dollars for the $4.22.

SAVING GROWS EASIER
AS HABIT TAKES H0LD
Young People Must Be Brought t
Realization Of What Future
Means ID Those Who Spend
Wisely,

It is easier to spend money than ii
Is to save. 1t is also more fun-a'
first. But money that Is spent doe:
not work for you. 1t Is gone, and il
working for somebody else.
1t is as hard to make young people
realize the necessity of saving as il
is to make them realize that they are
not always going to be young. 1t il
so easy to be young and reckless.
But habits of thrift have to be
taught. They also have to be formed
by practice. That means that the ris
ing generation must be taught to cap
italize it's youth, and in childhood
shown how to distribute and allot such
income as it may have.
That indeed, is a large part Of civ
ilization. The savage lives today. The
civilized man lives today with an eye
upon tomorrow In order that tomor
row may be as secure as today NJ
saves some Of today's goods for to
morrow's use.
The war taught many people how
to save; it taught other people how
to spend. The wise spender Is thu
wise saver, but the emphasis is OF
the "wise" and not on the spending
Education in thrift Is an education
in good citizenship and in good MOI
ais. The person who is being laugh
to save is also being taught to fore
cast the future and to make tomorrow
better because Of wise living today.
The government Of the United State
is offering to men, women and chi.
dren the opportunity to invest saving

Australian Gold ou.put Falling.

Cold production Of western Austria.
LA continues to show steady decline.
During the six months ended June 80,
1919, the total Australian production
amounted to 573,27g fine ounces, of
which western Australia furnished
41O,42S ounces. For the first six
months Of 1918 the Australian produc-
ton was 641,91t ounces, the state Of
western Australia furnishing 443,9S3
ounces. During the first six months
of 1917 the total production amounted
to 727,995 ounces, of which amount
western Australia furnished 490.466
ounces. 1t Is stated that the cause Of
this decline Is increased working ey-
penses due to high wages and the high
cost of machinery and materials. It
Is not expected that much, if any,
Improvement can be looked for in the
immediate future.

Al Interesting experiment as to the
effect of electrically treating seed

variety of wheat chosen for the expert

bushels to the acre, the seed on one
plot being electrically treated and that
on the other not, The land was trent
ed exactly alike all through the year,
Recently the growing crops were in
spected by O party, including r. l..
Robb, lecturer on agriculture al the
Southeastern Agricultural college,
Wye, Kent.
A marked difference between the two
plots was noticeable, the wheat on the
treated portion being much the more
vigorous in growth apd habit, and
promising, 50 fer as the experts pres,

least 20 per cent higher than that OF
the untreated plot. There were evil

crop, aud 1t was significant tact that
the other plot was, at any rate at the
present stage, entirely free from this

BREWERS BATTLE ON
Providence Beer Manufacturers Con- tend That Prohibition Bill Violates Their Constitutional Rights.

Providence, Nov. t3.-William l.. Frierson, assistant attorney general of the United S1res, appeared for the goVernment at the hearing in the federal district court here today in the case Of three lccal brewery com- panies who ask for d restraining or der against the NolStead enforcement act on the ground that it is uncon- stitutiOnal.
 Counsel for the breWeries argued that the prohibition act provides for the COniScatiOn of property without just compensate n; that it usurps the sovereign rights of states to deal with internal conditions and interfereS with persons following their chosen pursuits of livelihood.
 Mr F'riersOn contended that con- eress was clearly empowered by the constitution to pass the NOlStcad act
