The school committee in its report urged the teach- ing of the German language in the pub- e schools of Nebraska and requested that Germans seek to obtain this end through the boards of education. The school committee protested against the cheap class of German literature that it was asserted Is béing published and offered for sale in bookstores, in- ting that it s of a character that misrepresents the Germans and their literary achlevements. Protest Export of Munitions. The following resolutions relative to the manufacture, wle and shipment of munitions of war to Europe were adopted by a unanimous vote: As loyal Amerjcan citizens, loving our ldoMedycountry and anxjous for its fu- ture, we deprecate the enormous propor- tlons -+tained by our trade in arms and ammunition We belleve that this hid- eous and wicked traffic should be st cefl by law, and we commend both Ne- raska senators, and those of our repre- sentatives in congress. who supported measures to that end In the last scssion, The trade in" arms and ammunition is directly abhorrent to all bel'evers in the Christinn code of ethics, and to all hu- man beings born with heavenly ‘compas- sion in thelr hearts * is building up In this peaceful coun try a military industry greater and more dlnk'e?\ll than any that has heretofore ex'sted In any country of Europe.

Billy pictured the devil as “lying awake nights worrying because he couldn't get Job." And he dramatized God's question, “Hast-thou noticed my servant Job?" an ironical quesiion. *'That gets my goat, laugheq Billy. “Poor old devil hadn't been doing anything else but noticing Job; he'd been walking up and down the earth and looking at him from every side.” You say the world's growing better,” he shouted. “No, it isn't. You show me a man today as good as Job and I'll talk to you. If you can't, nothing doing on that sublect.” ,In the course of a hit at the saloons, “Billy” remarked, “I want to come back | here next fall and tour the state for pro- hibition.
