"HoW.THE AMERICAS PEOPLE ARE DONE"

Despite all the warfare made upon profteers
and profiteerng and declarations by government OF
ficias that vigorous campaign will be made against
all such prices continue to advance, and people who
are stuck are informed gliby of great scarcity of
commodities Of all kinds which causes the conscience
less advance in prices.
ii All over the country the alleged fair price boards
hold regular meetings, look wise as owls, put out
schedules of prices they alege to be fair; but which
are advancing constantly.
A writer in-the Commercial-Appeal Of Memphis,
Tenn, (Mr George L. Fossick) who has been making
extended investigation has presented an article
upon advancing prices and their causes, from which
the folloying paragraphs are culled:
"Shoe manufacturers havebeen busy for some
time explaining that the high prices of shoes is due
to the price of leather How about cloth slippers at
SIS to $25 per pair?"
american mo- hackers admit that there are
now approximately 275,000.000 pounds of meat in

English consumption.

confirm Mr.. Hoover.
Fact is, the more goods sent to Europe whether
sold or ulsod, the more profiteers in this
country had for crying "Scarcity" The scarcity
created in America by shipping goods out and storing
them in Europe artificial and nothing short of
crime. 1t probably would have caused an uprising

destroy foodstuffs and othe commodities at home

MAN WHO ESTABLISHED FIRST BANK lM
MONTANA WRITES OF HIS EXPERIENCES

The first bank to be founded in
Montana, was established by Sem
ator j. I'll. Millard, in Virginia City,
in the spring of 1864. Prior to
that time gold buying houses, call
ing themselves banks, had operat-
ed, but the Millard institution was
the first bank drawing exchange
on New York. Mr.. Millard was
associated with b. f. Allen in this
undertaking. 1t bought thousands
of pounds of gold dust from the
placer miners, and prospered
amazingly at the time when the
gulch was giving up the richest of
its golden treasure.

Mrs. Luther Bonllam of Fairbury
recited the following original poem
at the meeting of the literature de-
partment, Fairbury Woman. club,
November Is:
O give us a song for Nebraska, a
song full of praise and cheer
For her beautiful streams and val
leys and green fields far and
near,
A song for its loyal children two
hundred thousand strong
Who'll fight for her, die for her, pray
then give US song,
Give us song for its fields of the
east and the broad rolling plains
of its west.
Both gave alike to her country's call
and gave of her choicest and
best.
A song for its faithful lads, who fell
in that frightful fray,
And one for the fortunate ones who
are coming home to stay.
A song for her dear sweet mothers,
who's boys lie meath Flanders
sou,
A song that will burst anew from
the beautiful golden rod,
And lest we forget those fathers,
who've moulded our industries
strong,
Give us song for life and for
health
For all that serves our common
wealth,
One that inspires as the crowds
march along
Thrilling them through with the
love of that song.
But why for a song. do we earnestly
pray
When Nebraska is filled with songs
today?
For the treasures and blessing al
our command,
We thank we, 0 Lord. for our beau

SELAH

Jennie Geddes lived in history for
one fart flung deed. She flung her
stool at a bishops head. In the
Antiquarian museum, Edinburgh,
Scotland, there is preserved quaint
stool that resembles our camp stool,
but broad enough to accommodate
Goliath's wife. In 1857 James II
of England was endeavoring to force
Episcopacy on the Scotch conven-
anters, and he had contrived to in
troduce bishops into the kirk On
July %, 1857, the prayer book was
to be read in st. Giles cathedral.
Edinburgh. A great crowd had
gathered to worship. Jennie Geddes
sat on her stool at the rear of the
old cathedral. The service began
from the new prayer beck, when,
suddenly through, the air clasp
stool" was hurled at til. bishops
head. 1t came from the fist CT Jennie
Geddes. An uproar! The air was
darkened by more and more bibles
being hurled. The bishop was mob
bed. The town arose. The whole
people of Scotland stood up. Civil
war roared. And the destruction of
the royal government came from the
bold, brave stool of old Jennie Ged-
des.
Griselda.
Was Griselda the epitome of pa
tience? Or the climax of absurd
forbearances Let the modern wom-
an judge and answer. A peasant
girl of singular beauty of the Tyrol,
living in the middle ages, she at
tracted the attention of a marquis
of Salusa as he rode past her cot
tage door and saw her spinning in
the sunlight. He married her,
brought her to his castle with pomp;
demanded, when her first babe was
born that she resign it to him;
again demanded that she leave him,
Griselda complying neekly; de-
manded in two years time that she
return to array his new bride for
the altar-which she did; and, as
the dear woman stood trembling be-
fore him, the marquis cried: Thou
only art my bride! Thee only do l
lovew Griselda had proved to him
her immeasurable affection.
