Mrs. Bird was born in Kansas
City, Mo-, and prior to her marriage
was an actress and concert singer,
appearing on the stage in New York
and other big cities. She took part
in numerous local musical festivi-

The most marvellous thing about
Mrs. Birds illness was the fact that
in spite of the hoplessness of her
condition she was always cheerful.
A loving mother and devoted wife,
and a true friend, Mrs. Birds life
is measured in accomplishment
rather than in time. Leaving this
world at 81, she had crowded into
those years cultural, civic and phil
anthropic works which few could
achieve in a longer lifetime.
She had no time for idle
ness. Above all, she will be
remembered for her friend
illness. No subject was too trivial to
discuss with her, she took time to
visit her friends when they were i'll;
had a sympathetic message in their
sorrows; a proud note of congratu-

By Sam Klaver, Editor. Candidate for Legislature 9th District.
Revision of the old age pension law enacted by the state,
so as to place it upon a permanent basis, was shown to be nee
essary this week when the announcement was made that aged
people would not get more than $18 a month on the average
from both state and federal funds.
Unfortunately most of these old people were led to believe
that the old age pensions would amount to $50 a month of which
SID would be paid by the state and $5 by the federal govern
ment. This has not worked out as anticipated.
The pension payments should be large enough 50 that, when
paid, they will be large enough to render other aid to these old
people necessary and give the aged men and women net only
protection from hunger and privation, but real security and in-
dependence.
If this is done Douglas county's home fer aged AID indig-
emit persons could be either closed or made self-supporting and
the taxpayers saved q considerable sum Of money every year.
Either an actual saving could be put into effect or if nsc-
essary the annual cost of the CleaTview home could be applied
as this countys share OF the old age pension tax.
Candidates who seek a place in the next legislature, The
first one.house legislature to meet, should be placed on record
on this question of an adequate old age pension.
Social security fer the aged is no longer a theory. 1t has
come to stay in this state and country and it should be APP
preached from the viewpoint that is q permanent poaicv. The
problem cannot be solved in any other way.
