notice how much longer you can work

can walk. Notice how much better you
feel, sleep and eat. Watch flattering

SISTER MARY'S MENU
BY MARY f. DAGUE


THERE'S a shady place down
L by the river where there's a
:arpet of green, a clump of over
hanging willow trees, and the rip
oling of the water is like gentle
Serenade.
It's our favorite picnic place,
and now and then a July day
comes along when the urge to
pack up a lunch and go there is
simply irresistible.
Children always love picnics.
Adults usually like them. too, but
there are many mothers who say
mo" to the youngsters requests
to go picnicking because they fear
the aftermath will be unpleasant.
It needn't be. Plan the outdoor
lunch carefully, see that the chill
dren do not become too tired, and
your picnic will bring none but
pleasant memories.
Each Gets Package
To begin with, it's wise to avoid
too great variety Of foods. Chill
dren will lose their appetites if
they see an unusual array of diff
ferent things to eat. The package
picnic is ideal for small children.
All the articles of food are wrap
ped separately in individual serv-
ingS, packed in boxes, wrapped in
heavy paper and firmly tied.
When lunch time comes each
child receives his own package.
Sandwiches hold first place in
picnic menus and they can be
highly nourishing. Vary the
breads and choose the filings
with thought for their nutritive
value. Chopped raw vegetables,
jellies, cream cheese, cottage
cheese, dried fruits and nuts that
have been put through the food
chopper, minced meats and pea
nut butter all make suitable fill
ings.

May DESTROY
CASPIAN SEA
Level Lowers as Soviet
Dams, Uses Sources
for Irrigation

MOSCOW, July 17.-(UP).-
Soviet construction of dams, vast
increase of cultivated areas and
intensive use of the water of
Kuma, Terek, Volga and other
rivers for irrigation threatens the
destruction of the Caspian Sea,
according to Prof. B. Appolov,
prominent geologist.
Citing figures to show that the
sea lost 7,435 square miles of
area since 1925, Apollov urged
that measures be taken to dis
charge into the Caspian a portion
of the waters of northern rivers
and the Don, to protect valuable
fisheries and Caspian navigation
for future centuries.
FELL "a INCHES IN 1925
During the course of the last
100 years the level of the Cas-,
plan rose and fell alternatively
but in 1925 fell sharply "a inches
bleow the average level, accord,
ing to the geologist. In March OF
this year the sea was 10 inchse
lower than in 1925, a total de,
crease in area of 7,435 square
miles, or equal to the surface OF
the Kara-Bugaz gulf.

of Salkhir, built in the 18th Cen,

weather the ancient road leading
to the fortress can be seen on the
bottom of the gulf.

The island of Cheleken grad,

Turkmenian coast and is becom,

Investigation of the condition

NEBRASKA HAS
VAST SURPLUS
Rises to Fl Millions; Has
Lowest Tax; no Sales
or Income Tax
By ROBERT KELLY
United Press Staff Correspondent Mt

United EreSS Stan Correspondent
= TNCOIN Nch., July II. (UP)
Debtless Nebraska offers an ex-
smple Of thrift to the nation.
The state closed books at the
end of the fiscal year with $21,-
1880 in cash and gilt-edged in
vestments. an increase of $685.
373 over the previous year. The
increase in the cash account was
more than $1,000,000.
Treasurer George Hall attrihut-
ed this showing to better cOllec-
tions of taxes, particularly among
farmers who have been bcntfiting
from a rising market.
Facts already widely known
about Nebraska's state govern
ment are:
No bonded Indebtedness or any
other kind of Indebtedness.
SCENT GASOLINE TAX
No income tax and no general
sales tax. There is a Scent gaso-
line tax.
The lowest tax levy for state
purposes in America.
Lower general property taxes
for all purposes, state, county,
municipal and schools. than neigh
boring states that have many of
the newer forms of taxes.
/ A new capitol, built at cost
of $10,000,000 and paid for when
completed.
The fourth largest state uni
versity in point of enrolment.
Better tax collections, coupled
with reduced appropriations by
the last legislature, enabled Ne
braska to Increase its cash balance
during the past year. Reason for
the states debtless status is its
constitution which limits the
amount of bonded Indebtedness TO
100000.
TAX INCREASE FOUGHT
Taxpayers leagues, newspa-
pers, farm organizations and
other groups successfully have re-
sisted attempts to introduce a gem
| eral sales tax or an income tax.
The result is that both major par
ties are committed to policy of
'no new taxes"
The only alternative is rigid
economy. The appropriation for
maintenance of Gov. R. L. Coch-
rams office is little more than
half of that set aside by the Kan
Sas legislature for Gov. ALT ".
Landon's staff.
Nebraska's state institutions are
not supported as well as those Of
neighboring states. Certain it is
that when the municipal legisla-
ture, a Nebraska innovation in
government, convenes in January,
1887, there will be movement to
boost appropriations for the state
university with an enrolment of
more than 10000.
