Some. Brush

That storm Of Monday cured every
case of spring fever, drove to cover
the earliest walking models in mems
wear and shot ahead several days
the opening Of the straw hat season.
Men in stores watching the occasion
al woman pass, agreed that feminine
apparel was still going up. The only
living thing that did not get q chill
was the robin, which was busy be-
tween gusts and blasts extracting
the early worms from Mother Earth's
anatomy.
1t, was nasty day, and few were
out in the forenoon. The afternoon
was quite an Improvement. The chill
LEFT the atmosphere. the snow melt
ing some. In the evening the wind
quieted and it grew colder,
Tuesday morning the sun came out
bright and warm. the air was still
1t was a beautiful spring day.

Easter Sunday

Next Sunday is Easter What a
transformation from early biblical
times. The beautiful story OF the
resurrection of Christ has been pla-
Gated by modern society. The etymo-
logical term resurrection has given
way to its synonymous cousin-com-
ing out, and femininity has taken 1t
upon herself to make Easter Sunday
the Good Lord and the weather
man permitting-.-the coming out OF
the latest in spring wear. With some
it is more of cominG out than with
others, as they almost come out with
nothing on.
We have often wondered how all
the birds and animals stay on such
precipitous and uncertain places as
women's hats. But the environment
it quite natural, as In the g0rges and
on the mountainous areas are flow.
ers, bushes. grasses, dead tree limbs
and kindred things to give the situa'
tion a natural appearance to them.
The calendar man says showers
for Easter. That will give fresh
ness to the flowers on the women'a
hats. about the only kind Of floral
decorations that may be In evidence
Judging by yard Indications.

Thirty Eight Cars
Wifhosst ! 022 license

A local resident told us Sunday
that to satisfy his curiosity, Satur.
day afternoon he walked about the
business section to see about how
many cars he could count without
the 1929 license tag. Without going
to too much trouble he found thirty.
eight cars either with no license tag
or the, 1921 one. There are but few
1921 tags to be seen now, as tag
less car is not nearly SO conspicuous
as with an old tag on.
Judging from the number OF
licenses issued last year, there are
probably several hundred cars In the
county on which no license has been
paid. The owner takes no chance,
unless he runs his car without a
license. Et ssl

Cre1pl ssss7srain on
Hsxk Line Saturday

~ When the Overland unlimited pulled
out of Sterling Saturday morning it
had no conductor or brakeman. En-
gineer Wallace Crowner was unaware
OF this condition until Fleming was
reached, where the agent had instruc-
tions to hold him until the arrival
Of Conductor Fred Ayres and Brake
man Frank Shinn, who were chasing
around the curves in the hills this
side of Sterling on switch engine
hitched to an emigrant car bound for
Haxtun.
Just how the engineer lost the con-
ductor and brakeman may never be
known. Ayres was in the dispatch
ers office when Crowner pulled the
passenger train out on the main line.
When the brakeman closes the
switch, generally everything is ready,
and he gives the engineer the high
sign. when the massive train of sleep
ers, diners. palace and observation
cars moves eastward.
Saturday an emigrant car was to
be brought to Haxtun. Just what
kind Of a sign the brakeman gave is
mot known. but the engineer took it
for to go ahead, and he went. When
the brakeman saw the train moving
toward the. hills without the conduc-
tor. and himself, he got busy. but it
was too late. The city whistle was
blown and a U. P. engine nearby
whistled, without avail. Crowner
seemed bent on chasing off the right
of.way every jack rabbit between
Sterling and Holdrege.
The conductor and fireman com.
mandeered switch engine. hooked It
onto the emigrant car and lit out
after the fleeing train. Though they
urged and coaxed and petted and per.
suaded. the track hog could not make
over Is miles an hour while Crowner
was jogging along at from 25 to 30.
At Fleming the emigrant car was
hooked onto the rear Of the train,
and Crowner did not pull out until
sure Ayres and Shinn were aboard.
II II evident now that the High
Line passenger trains need only IN
engineer and fireman. The cars can
be equipped pay-as-you-epter fashion,
like Z jitney street car. This would
save the company two mems salary,
and all the passengers on Saturdays
train will agree that Crowner can
get away with It.

that the town had much better ap.

WHERE PROSPERITY BEGINS

In the fall OF 1920, prices paid to
farmers for their products entered
a period of drastic decline. From
then until few months ago the In.
dustrial depression was due largely
to the shrunken purchasing power Of
the American farmer.
Fodr months ago the values Of
crops were calculated by the depart.
ment OF agriculture at eight billion
dollars less than two years before.
While tn, farmers income was
shrinking. TIE prices OF the manu-.
factured articles he needed did not
drop In proportion. The farmer could
not afford to sell eight bushels Of
grain to pay eight dollars for a pair
OF shoes. He sold the wheat because
he had TO. But he found he could
get along. somehow. without the new
shoes. In fact. he got along for a
year or so without buying anything.
Slowly but surely the wide differ.
ence between the prices OF farm pro.
ducts and OF merchandise the farmer
buys is being wiped out by the law
OF supply and demand. ~
The business situation OF the na.
tlon Ia improving. The backbone Of
our prosperity Is found In ths fertili-
t. OF our soil. We are able to pro.
duce. more than any other nation. n
wide variety OF things the world
needs. When our farmers are given
fair return on their Investment and
labor. they insure. 10 the nation as a
whole fair degree OF prosperity.
The hrst and most Interesting sign
OF better business is that prices paii
to the farmer are going up. II 10
row plain TO be seen that these
prices fell below levels warranted by
actual conditions. Downward prices
were assisted by Involved conditions
In Europe.
When prices fell near one dollar n
bushel for wheat and ths farmers
were obliged 10 sell. they came -
the conclusion that they had been
penalixed for holding. Reversing their
methods. In the fall OF 1921 they mar.
