READ BOTH SIDES
and THINK, CLUB
WOMEN ADVISED
Mrs. Guy Van Duzee, Lam
bertOn, elected President
of County Federation

With Rev. Sidney L. Richards
of Window as the principal speak
er, the county convention of fed
Grated study clubs was held Sat-
urday at the Lincoln auditorium.
Members Of the four clubs here
were the official hostesses.
Speaking on Creative Tomor-
row" Rev. Richards suggested
that his audience develop an urge
to give instead of get SO that in
the tomorrow, the finer and bigger
things of life may be a realiza-
tion and not dream.
Even our citizenship has be-
come fashionable one" he as
serted, "for it is so much easier
to follow the line of least resist
ance and do as our neighbors are
doing instead of thinking inde-
pendently. To develop real think
ing, read both sides of question,
and evolve your opinion from a
two sided knowledge Of affairs"
Rev. Richards closed his address
by saying that creative sugges-
tions are necessary for that finer
tomorrow; we must have new ways
of investing our time, lives and
talents and We need to create new
springs of life or keep old ones
pure if we expect the next decade
to be better than the last.
Mrs. George F. Warren of VIM
dom, district president, said that
women Of today are weavers even
as their forbears were, but into
the intricate pattern of modern
life we must weave child welfare,
more libraries for use in isolated
districts, equal educational ad-
vantages for all, civic growth and
pride in community betterment.
With a registration of 1870 the
meeting was attended by repre-
sentative women from every Sec
ton of the county. Other out
standing numbers on the program
were talk on India by Miss Car
oline Whitcomb of Walnut Grove,
former missionary; a descrip-
ton of relief work and its meth
eds by Mrs. Eleanor Bue, county
relief worker and selections from
an Easter cantata directed by Mrs.
Hazel Nelson and given by MEM
bers of the Morgan Woman's club.
Miss N. Alice Ide of Redwood
Falls gave the address of well
come and the response was given
by Mrs. Fred Helgeson of LAM
berton.
Mrs. Guy Van Duzee of Lam
berton was elected county presi-
dent succeeding Mrs. NJ. H. Sand
ager of Belview who had served
two years term and Mrs. John
Slaymaker of Delhi was chosen
treasurer, taking the place Of Mrs.
II. B. West of Morgan. The 1896
meeting win be held at Wabasso
with the Progress club as hostess.

Important Laaus Passed To Help Farmers,
Zavach Says In Review Of Session, Failure
To Accomplish Tax Reform Disappointing
Taxation

The one big disappointment of
the session was the failure to
pass sound legislation for re-
placement of real estate taxes.
When majority leaders refused to
compromise upon any of the pro-
visions of the omnibus bill, it was
almost foregone conclusion that
the governors veto would result.
1t is to be regretted that party
selfshness on both sides is still
strong enough to justify the play
of politics at the expense of the
state.
A taxation bill meeting with
more success was that exempting
from taxation household goods
and farm machinery. All house
hold goods were exempted up to
any amount but farm tractors,
threshing machines, corn shelters,
corn pickers and silage cutters
were not excluded. This was per-
haps break of faith with the
farmers of the state.
The constitutional amendment
abolishing state levies against real
estate was also passed. Carrying
out of this measure depends upon
passage of a replacement tax at a
special or at the next regular ses-
sion.
The practice of bargain tax
settlements" was partially recti-
fed by requiring payment of one
half of the taxes before contest is
permitted.
Others of Importance
Allowing $2,O74,5O0 for public
buildings including a new insane
asylum carrying an appropriation
of $1,20O,00O and $4,000 for a
new psychopathic ward at the
University hospital.
A large state school appropria-
ton of $6,10O,009 year is to be
distributed on the basis of average
daily attendance. This is a SUBJ
stantially larger appropriation
than that granted for the past BIZ
ennium.
Additions to 12 104 the state for
ests from tax delinquent lands.
Passage Of an old age pension
act coordinating national, state
and county agencies and allowing
a maximum Of $50 per month
with allowance for dependents.

Senior Play Based
On Lindbergh's Life

Based on the life and work of
Charles Lindbergh, "The Lone
Eagle, senior class play will be
given at p. m. Friday, May 8 in
the Lincoln auditorium.
"The Lone Eagle" is an average
American young man who at
tempts a solo fight across the At
lantic Ocean. Complications, SER
ious and humorous, arise and the
result is an entertaining play.
Speciality numbers have been ar
ranged to precede the first act and
between acts and an interesting
program is assured.

PLAY SAFE

There is no question but what
healthy body is the biggest asset
any person can have. It is neces-
sary to success in life save only
in exceptional cases, end it is up
on a foundat ion Of health that hap.
piness is built.
Modern science makes it possible
to play safe with certain contag-
ious diseases and only a fool will
gamble with anything SO precious as
his health.
The value Of imnuni zation against
typhoid fever approaches vaccina ton
against smallpox in its effective
ness. Evidence shows that immuni "a
ton against typhoid in the U. S.
Army and Navy practically eliminated
this dread disease as a cause Of
death during the World War. The in
cidence Of typhoid fever in the
A. Eff. was less than o.lfo - q tru-
ly remarkable record when compared
it'll the annual ADM ssion rate dur
ing the civil War Of 1888 per 1000
and Of 9l.22 per 1000 during the
Spani sh- american War.
Rather convincing, those Figures.

Mrs. Harold Zook who was re-
Gently operated upon at Anchor
age is rapidly improving and Will
be home within a few days.
Mrs. H. Smith is convale scing
at the hospital at Palmer and ex-
poets to be back with her family
this coming week.
It seems that we were misin-
formed about Miss Rita Revelle's
condition last week. Her in jury
is worse, rather than better,
than at first suppo sed. She will
be confined to fracture bed
for at least sixty days.
Governor Troy visited her at
the Anchorage Hospital on We'd
nesday.
We regret that we didn't have
the news Last week Of the arrival
Of an 81 pound daughter TO Mrs.
William Bennett on the 25th Of
Sept ember. Both are doing SPLEEN
didly, and Mrs. Bennett has al
ready given her daughter the eu-
phoneous name Of Patricia Ann.

It seems q shame, but it is new
er-the-less true, that the thought
less action Of one Of the rehebil-
ltated families will reflect upon
the earnestness and Integrity Of
the entire colony.
The eyes Of the world are on us,
and the future Of many families may
be influenced by the degree Of sue
cess the pro ject attains.

The story Of the Key Club would parallel in some
respects Ten Nights in a Bar Room" for there
were some young reporters inexperienced in LIQUOR
among Its early customers who became hopeless
rum-pots in the Key Club and never came ON TO
fulfill the bright promise of their youth
Rather strangely, there were frequent pass-outs
among the customers of the Key Club Men would
draw blanks for no apparent reason and be stretched
OUT across several chairs to to at their leisure
