PERSONAL IMPROVEMENT

If a girl wishes people to have a
good opinion of her, her personal
appearance must be good. I do not
mean that she must wear such fine
clothes, use too much paint and
powder and fix her hair like every
body else does because it is the style.
I mean that she must dress neatly
and wear sensible shoes. If she has
good complexion she will not need
the paint and powder. She should also
arrange her hair becomingly, even
ought it is not in the latest style
Her teeth should be brushed regular
ly and she should not bite her finger
nails, but cut them and keep them
clean.
A girls health must be good if
she wants to be pretty and attrac-
tive. She should sleep in room with
plenty of fresh air, and she should
not eat at all times of the day, but
at the regular meals, and then not
too much if she does not wish to get
fat. A light lunch at recess is not
SO bad, because it is needed, but to
eat all kinds of "trash" at just any
time is enough to ruin the health. To
have a good general appearance, a
girl must be able to carry herself
well, and to accomplish this she must
be very careful of the position in
which she sits, stands and walks
But all these things will be useless
you do not speak well, because a
girls character is judged more by
her speech than anything else. You
can generally tell by a persons
speech whether or not she comes
from a good home. But even if your

MADAME BERNHARDT MAY
NOT VISIT UNITED STATES

Paris, Aug. 30.-Madame Sarah
Bernhardt will in all likelihood be
forced to abandon her intended trip
to the United States .on account of
the severe cold which she caught
while journeying from a shore re-
sort to Paris by train.
MADAME Bernhardt was in great
pain today" her son, Maurice told
Universal Service. "She is unable to
leave her bed but the doctor says
that unless complications set in
there is no reason to fear death"
An endless stream Of inquiries
after her health were received at
the home today. Representatives of
every diplomatic corps called. More
than thousand kilograms were re-
ceived. They included messages
from the king of England and Italy.

NEW SYSTEM SOON
FOR AUTO LICENSE
Will Be Licensed In
South Carolina According 10
Weight and Not Horsepower
AS Heretofore

Columbia, Aug. 31.-A system OF
licensing automobiles, different
rom that of most states and never
5efore tried in South Carolina, is
being worked out by the State high
way department in Columbia now'
acting under the 1920 highway act,
and looking to the licensing OF
motor vehicles for 1921. Under the
lew system cars will be licensed ac-
ording to weight and not accord
ng to horsepower.
There will be, under the 2eW sys-
EN-, seven different classes Of IL
censes for automobiles and ten for
trucks, besides licenses for dealers
and motor cycles. The main thing
about the 1921 automobile license
plate will be it's class, not its num-
Der.
For 1921 licensing automobiles
will be grouped in the following
classes: ClassA, for light cars up to
1000 pounds; Class B, from 1000
to $500 pounds; Class C, $500 to
5000 pounds; Class D, 5000 to 81
500; Glass E, $500 to 1000; Glass
F, 1000 to 4,50O; Class G, over
$500 pounds. In each class the
number will start at 1.
For licencing trucks there will be
licenses for hard tires and differ
ent licenses for pneumatic tires. In
each group there will be five classes
-1-ton, 2-ton, 3-ton, Atom and
over four tons. No truck of more
than Atom capacity is allowed on
the State highways in South Caro-
Ina, except with special permission
of the highway commission. There
will also be plates for Dealers
motorcycles and motorcycle dealers.

A PRAYER.

I would not choose my path, nor
undertake today to map my course,
nor go alone upon my way; for in
my blindness, I could not see the
way that is best for me. I'd choose
the brightest and the fairest road,
stunning the finty path for one
where lights of pleasure glowed, for
getting that within the blossoms on
the way so fail rank poisons lurked
and hidden dangers waited there. I
do not ask to have the way made
clear to me unto the end, I only ask
to see one step ahead, if Thou art
there to lead and to defend.

ment has this year issued $1,000
mates but a larger number of auto
mobiles are anticipated for 1921.
The licensing for 1921 will be
started in December. The State law

May Restore Two Cent Fare

Dwight ~ Lewis, chairman of the
state board OF railroad commits
sioners, in an address before the
Fort Dodge Commercial Club de-
clared that the lack of freight cars
is one of the most serious problems
in the present railroad situation.
He quoted John Moody, recognized
authority, as declaring in a recent
bulletin that with the return of nor
NAL conditions and with the addi-
tion of freight cars now being or
dered by the carriers, the car short
age situation should improve so as
to solve the freight car problem
within the next six months.
Commissioner Lewis pointed, out
the two cent fare law still stands
on the Iowa statute books and be-
lieyes that after September / when
government control ceases the at
torney general should undertake
to enforce the two cent law.

have been lost. The train was de-

Another Fiddle Maker

Only it's modesty restraints Grisf'
void from stepping forth into the
glare of world renown and pro-
claiming itself the home of one of
the worlds geniuses "a man who
whittles out yiolins with his jack
knife and does it as a mere pastime.
His name is Frank Werlich. He is
cook in the grading camp of T. w.
Davis. Fiddle making is merely a
fad with Werlich. Griswold's only
object in trotting it's violin maker
into publicity is the claim to dis
tinction made by its neighboring
town of Massena which has among
its people a man, Doc" Lee, who
has made a dozen or more violins.
Massena's fiddle maker has violins
scattered up and down the valley
of the Nodaway for miles. They
are said to be rivals of those made
by the great Stradivarius. That
may be true but the fiddles made by
Werlich are scattered from ocean to
ocean and from the Canadian Dor
der to the gulf. They are so tune
full they almost play themselves.

Here's One Reason

William Deets, who has moved

after an absence of several months,
believes he has found one cause for
the present scarcity and high price
of sugar. Before leaving Alton he
was told by a man whom he con-
siders absolutely trustworthy, that
the latter's brother was part owner
of great stock of sugar stored in
a southern city and being held for
the price to go to so cents pound.
According to the statement made to
Deets the stock consisted of many
hundreds of sacks, the sugar cover
ing an entire floor of big ware
house and being piled in tiers four

Big Shortage in Hamburg Bank


Added interest in the disappear
ance of B. G. Franklin, of the Bank
of Hamburg, and the consequent de-
developments and disclosures made
by the bank examiners is given by
the fling of two big mortgages at
Sidney, one for $3.50, 900, being the
largest mortgage ever filed in the
county. 1t is given to the Omaha
Trust Company of Omaha by t. A.
Morgan of Hamburg and covers
about 1000 acres of valuable Ere
mont county land.
A mortgage of $4,000 was also
filed. 1t was given by Lee Wing
to John Lingo and the security is
several hundred acres of farm
land located near Hamburg.
The air is full of ugly rumors
concerning the conduct of the miss
ing cashier, one of which is to the
effect that Franklin went from Om-
aha to st. Joseph and there secured
large sum of money from the cor
respondent bank, giving as security
a lot of spurious paper. This ru-
NOR has not been verified
A run could hardly affect the in
stitution, since the Bank of Ham
burg is one of the strongest in that
section, having resources running
well above $1,OO0,0OO. Back OF
the bank are Mr.. Franklin's father

Young Man With 500 Disappears

About a month ago Lee Bennett
of Lexington, Neb., son of Mrs.
Leatha Bennett of Hamburg went to
Omaha looking for employment.
He stopped at the home of his broth
place, expecting to find work that
day. When night came he did not
return, but little thought was given
to the matter, in fact his absence did
not cause worry until he had been
gone about three weeks and no word
from him. He was supposed to
have about 500 on his person at
the time, and the thought is that he
has met with foul play. His moth
er, Mrs. Leatha Bennett, went to
Omaha this week, but could find no
trace of her son.
