WILL EMPLOY 25 TEACHERS The first of two additional nights of registration for night school at South High will begin this evening at the high' school building at 8 o'clock. Principal Huwaldt urges that as many as can, be at the office Monday . and Tuesday of this week for enrollment. This arrengement will relieve the overwork that is due to late registration. Night school will be popular this year, according to the principal “With added equipment and a more extensive work of study, we expect to enroll a student body of not less than 400,” the new principal said yester- day. “Our domestic science and sew- ing classes have been filled to capac- ity, but there are still several places open in the manual training and engi neering departments. We expect to have a corps of twenty-five teachers working when the school is under way.” Whether the students of the night school will participate in physical cul- ture as those of the day school, is a matter not decided yet. The facil ities are here for the work. Students of the night school will be eligible to participate in school athletics pro- vided they are within the age limits of the State High School Athletic as- sociation. Investigating Gayden. s “George Gayden, colored, held for investigation.” The police blotter gave up this bit of information and Desk Sergeant Mike McCarthy had a story to tell “Well, sir,” said Mike. “This man happened to be walking by the police station with a bundle under his arm Our vigilant policeman, Knudtson, happened to be standing in front of the station and took a notion to de- mand what was ‘in the package. A ““Thar am nothin’, sir, but an apron, sir,” the negro quavered. “““Come on; let’s see if there is,’ Knudtson persisted. In the bundle, two chickens with feathers on, but very much dead, were wrapped up in a sweater. ‘‘Ah, hal’ the officer said, ‘Come here, I want to see you.'” So Mr. Gayden is being held for investigation. It developed that Gay- den is a former member of the volun- teer Thirty-second Kansas infantry. He lives at 2222 Seward street. Robberies Reported.

Although the dootrs of the show building were thrown open early and large numbers of swine cnthusiasts swarmed in and out of the huge horse barrs on the South Side all morning | long, the five days’ exhibition did not formally open until afternoon. The official curtain raising ceremo- nies were staged at 2 o'clock, when Governor Morehead visited the show and addressed a large crowd in the horse barns.

Uric Acid in meat clogs Kidrey: and irritates the bladder. . Most folks forget that the kidneys, like the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasion- | ally, else we have bachache and du'l | misery in the kidney region, severc | headaches, rheumatic twinges, torpid | liver, acid stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders. You simply must keep your kidneys and clean, and the moment you feel an ache or pain in the kid- ney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogged kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity. It also neu- tralizes the acids in the urine so it no longer irritates, thus ending bladder. . disorders.

A well-known local druggist says he sells lots of Jad Salts to folky who believe in overcoming kidney trouble while it is only trouble R T Local Option \ Treasurer, W. L. COAD and Adopt State Prohibition ? Under the existing Local Option Law, it lies within the power of the citizens of any community in Nebraska to adopt local prohibition for their own city, town, or village. In every community in this state absolute control over this ques- tion lies in the hands of the majority of the voters. No interference from the outside is possible; nothing can thwart the wishes of the majority in the city, town or village, with respect to the question of license or no license. Many communities in this state have availed themselves of the power granted to them under our.Local Option Law, and have adopted local prohibition for their own community. Where there a dominant LOCAL public sentiment in support of that policy, it is possible to make the no-license policy respected and obeyed. There are, on the other hand, many communities in this state where it is the opinion of the majority of the citizens that the license policy is better adapted to their own community. Where that is the prevailing sentiment, the community is permitted, under our existing Local Option Law, to license the sale of alco- holic beverages—subject of course to the provisions and restric- tions of the general state law. In neither case, is a policy forced on a community from without. The principle of Home Rule prevails. It is now proposed to substitute for this policy of local self- government, the policy of state-wide prohibition. This prohibition policy is not intended for the relief of communities in which the no-license policy already prevails, but is designed to FORCE such a policy on other communities against their will, The result, as the experience of other states has abundantly established, would be disastrous in every city and town on which prohibition is forced. It means, where dominant local sentiment is opposed to prohibition, lax enforcement of the law, the dividing of such towns into bitterly hos- tile factions, the reign of the spy and of the in- focrmer, the rapid growth of crime—and in the end it means higher taxes. Against the substitution of such a system for that under which Nebraska is’ now operating, everyone having the best interests of the people of this state at heart, should solemnly protest.
