ENJOY 0UTIH6
HONOR OF PRESIDENT
The C. E. Society of Presbyterian
Church Spend Pleasant Time
on the River Bank.
From Mnnilay'n I)ally.
The C. K. society of the Pres
byterian church gave a farewell
last Saturday evening in honor of
Miss Johnston, who has been
president, of the society for the
past five months and who will de
part for Lincoln tomorrow, where
she will remain until the latter
part of the week, when she will go
to Bloomington, Nebraska, where
she will upend her summer vaca
tion. This farewell was in the
nature of a picnic and was held on
the banks ol the Missouri. There
were not so many of the En
deavors in attendance as there
should have been, but although
lacking in numbers, there was no
lack of fun and merriment.
A portion of the time was very
pleasantly passed in conversation,
and then a number of the party
crossed the Old Muddy via the
ferry route, while the others speut
the time in arranging for the
picnic supper, which was to be
served as soon as those crossing
the river returned. Hefore it was
announced that supper was ready
it was suggested that they have a
camp fire, and so a number fell to
and gathered material and soon
there was a red-hot fire very
much in evidence. The Endeavors
then gathered about the festive
forest, board and soon made the
delicious supper disappear. The
remainder of the evening was de
lightfully spent about the camp
fire, playing various outdoor
games and indulging in several
stunts. When it bad grown quite
dark the Endeavors returned to
their homes, very tired, but hav
ing thoroughly enjoyed the out
ing. The only thing to mar this en
joyable outing of the C. E. society
was the fact that Miss Johnston
was soon to depart from their
midst and not to return to them
again next fall. Miss Johnston
has been a most faithful and
earnest worker and officer of this
society and her departure from
their midst will be sorely felt.
Miss Johnston has greatly assist
ed the pastor in enlarging the so
ciety and making it a very strong
one. She has also assisted in gel
ting the members interested in
foreign missionary work to a
great extent and on last Saturday
mailed a check for almost $40 to
be used for carrying on the work
in the foreign fields, as a result
of her untiring efforts and labor.
Although Miss Johnston wilj de
part from their midst in person,
she will not, soon be forgotten.
The members of (lie C. E. society
wish her godspeed ami know that
wherever she may decide to locate
in the fall I lint it will be our loss,
but their gain.

THE BRIDGE TD BE
BUILT THIS SUMMER
And to Be Furnished and Ready
for Use by the 15th of
September.
For some months it has been
staled that Ralph Duff of this city
and Mr. Parinele of Plattsmoulh
would build a bridge across the
Platte river which would accom
modate the traveling public and
be of great, benefit to the auto
mobilisits, as it would greatly
shorten the distance betxveen here
and Omaha. It was thought, that
the bridge would be constructed
last fall, but now it is announced
that work on the bridge will be
commenced at once and it. will be
completed by September 15. This
will be good nexvs to the traveling
public. Nebraska City Nexvs.

THE SLOW
Your telephone bell rings it rings again. You are
busy and do not answer. The operator finally reports
to the party calling you, 'They do nor answer." (Note
she never says, 'They are nor there.") Then she dis
connects you.
Five seconds later just six seconds too late you
answer. You get no reply. You angrily exclaim, -"My
bell rang."
Your delay caused either the loss of a customer or
inconvenience to a friend. You cannot afford either.
At a certain hour in the nay, everybody wants to
talk at the same time, and telephone calls come quick
and fast. At such times all we ask is for yyu to be
considerate, remembering that the "Central" on your
line will answer you as quickly as possible, and will do
all any operator can do to give you quick and accurate
service.
