To Step Down and Out.
Last Friday County Superintendent
of Schools, W. C. Smith tendered his
resignation to the County Commission
ers to take effect April 1, and the same
has been accepted. Mr. Smith has
Hield the position for nearly four years,
but lias contemplated this step for
some time. His reason for this is that
he does not consider the emoluments
of the office sufficient to justify him in
remaining here, and that a more re
munerative position is tendered him.
Mr. Smith will remove to Table Hock,
Neb., to engage in the lumber, grain
and coal business with his father and
brother. He has been a most efficient
and faithful official, and has given gen
eral satisfaction. The Journal, as well
as Mr. Smith's many friends through
out Cass county, regret to to see him
make this more.

Now and Then.
Attending the funeral services of an
old and respected citizen of I'latts
mouth at 1 he Methodist church, not
many days since, a thought came to me
of w hat a change had taken place in
t he Methodist church since the early
days of Plat tsmont h and the present.
Now we see a large and line construct
ed building the prideof I'lattsmouth,
built substantially from lumber, linish
ed outside wit h brick; with large win
dows of beaut i fully st ained glass, pre
sented to the church by some kind
hearted members as memorial win
dows. While the outside of the church
building presents a handsome appear
ance, the inside arrangements are sim
ply grand, and is a beautiful sight to
behold. Comfortable seat s are provid
ed for all who wish to attend services,
and polite ushers in attendance. The
building is illuminated hy electricity,
the sanctuary occupied by the minis
ter and the choir is large and hand
somely furnished and thesingingof the
choir, especially t he soprano and alto,
is up to date, and could not Ik; improv
ed. It was a pleasure to me to listen
to their sweet singing. How different
did we lind the Methodist church serv
ice in the very early days of the settle
ment, of I'lattsmouth and Cass county.
The membership of the church con
sisted only of a few families, among
them Mr. Sheppard Duke; Mr. H. Spur
lock, who was at that time a young
man; Mr. Yates, the minister; Mr.
Throckmorton, Mr. and Mrs. M. L.
White and a few more whose names I
do not remember. Mr. 15. Spurlock and
our o!d-tiine friend, Aunty White are
living yet.
Sunday services were held hy Kev.
Yates at the homes of the few mem
bers, or in some empty room. With so
few members it could not be expected
to support a minister. Put pay or no
pay, Mr. Yates held Sunday service,
and during tin; week he worked at his
trade of shoemaking in company w ith
Mr. Trockmorton. They rented a
small room on Main street and had all
they could do mending boots and shoes.
Poth of them were good singers. We
have listened to their singing time and
time again. They generally sang a
good old Methodist hymn, which was,
"I am glad I am a Methodist; glory
hallalujah," and kept time to the sing
ing by hammering at a new sole of a
boot or a shoe on an old Hat iron. AYe
could hear them singing several blocks
away. I immagine I hear them yet.
Of course people were poor at that
time and we could not dress in the
heighth of fashion like now days. The
minister, Mr. Yates, was no exception.
We all wore very plain and cheap
clothes and it was nothing uncommon
to see Pev. Yates shoulder a sack of
flour and carry the same from the
steamboat landing to his home; or

members of the church think of their
minister to-day seeing him with a sack
of Hour on his shoulders or wheeling a
sack of potatoes home? Pev. Yates
did not think any thing of it. I hit time
changes, so do people.
After some time tin; membership of
the church increased, and a store room
on Main street rented and services
held there. Kev. Yates left I'latts
mouth, and Professor Miller, of the
Oreapolis Seminary, attended to the
services here until the old Vnurch on
the corner of Main and Sixth st reels,
