The I.i,:r-.,in -li:;!:ihor of commerce has a thr".'.' fold function. It main tains a -i:tb where nil hinds of pub lic ai;U i-; v;tlj itherintrs. are held !y. It is I lie great clearing house of -soi lal activity fur the whole city. 'J he faciiilics of a line and roomy club house are- i .;;eraleil to nunmembers for community purposes with complete gcnori.sity. The clubhouse, now worth not far from $Sj),)). will soon be aid for and will be in effect a munici pal building. The Lincoln achieve ment in linanelng and erecting this building Ik said to be unique in the history of eilies of Lincoln's class. The second function of the chamber is the massing of civic energy on so lution of business, social and In dustrial problems, In many cities the chambers confine their energies to this lnd of work. Lincoln spends not far rom $:i(i,0JO a year in these activities, Including public hospitality, business j romotion, general advertising and the ncournging of new Industries. The work is done conscientiously by the oHicors and committeemen. It is the judgment of the leading business men that the results flowing from tills work are alone worth more than the entire cost of the organization. The third activity of the chamber Is the maintenance of a traffic bureau. Comparatively few of the members know that back in the club bouse out of sight and hearing, telephones ure ringing almost constantly. They are answered by rule experts who have at elr linger lips correct freight sched ules on all the commodities handled by Lincoln firms. These experts save large sums to the shippers, the aggre gate amounting to between $50,000 and $75,000 every year. This Is but a part of the work done by the bureau. The battles conducted by Secretary Wliilten to prevent rate discrimina tions against Lincoln have been the business salvation of the community. Nebraska State Journal. F. A.

Spf-iiklng of the financial problems of the farmers of this county tli other day. County Judge Campbc".! told tlii.; story which ho says w? vouched for by a friend of his who visited Heppr.er a few days ago. Tli only point the judge is uncertain about is whether the thing happened in Gilliam or Sherman county: A year or more ago a stranger dropped into that neighborhood find leased a wheat ranch. He plowed 300 acres and took good care of the summer fallow during the summer but when seeding time come he ha no seed to plant the ground. He went to a neighboring farmer, told him the circumstances and finally bought 300 bushels of seed to be paid for after the crop was harvest ed. He took the seed home and started drilling. Day after day, early and late, the man who had staked him to the seed watched him pound ing the drill team on the back and rejoiced that he had played the part of the good Samaritan to an unfor tunate neighbor. When the seeding was finally com pleted the man went to town and ribbed up a deal by which he sold his lease and his interest in the 300 acres of wheat in the ground. A day or two later he dropped out of sight. Time passed and one day it was discovered that the man had sold 300 bushels of perfectly good seed wheat to a buyer in a neighbor ing town. That aroused the curiosity of the man who had bought the fellow's interest in the 300-acre alleged crop and he went out to see how it was looking. Not a solitary blade of wheat was visible although adjoin ing fields planted at the same time were green. Then everybody inter ested in the trnsaction took a violent tumble: The fellow had drilled the field with an empty drill just for ap pearances sake, sold the seed and h' interest in the crop and gone to Can ada. His creditors held a meeting the other day to talk the matter over p it was decided to send the fellow word that as long as he remained north of the boundary line they would not trouble him but if he ever comes back to the U. S. he would bet ter look out. The judge finished his story and heaved a mighty sigh. "Wei!, :hv he said to the reporter," I farmed o-.r on Social Ridge for many years an.' at tho start times were pretty bad some years and I thought of every scheme I could dig out of my head trying to study v.p some way to hei: get a start but By George, I novel thought of such a slick scheme as that. Maybe that's why I am net back in Canada," he concluded with a chuckle.
