VERY PATRIOTIC FIRM.
From WVt1n1a-! Dally.
One of the Plattsmouth bit inoss
institutions that believe in practic
al patriotism is the L. ('. Sharp
Manufacturing Co. and Mr. Sharp
has friven a demonstration of this
fact. At the outbreak of the war
with Germany and during the fol
lowing few months Mr. Sharp had
in hi employ Harry. San ford.
Thomas and Karl Short, sons of Mr.
and Mrs. J. II. Short, who heeding
the need of the nation for men at
the front to serve in defending the
world's freedom from the Hun
menace, joined the I'nited States
array and were sent overseas to serve
on the hattlflelds of Franc. The lat
of these young men. Karl Short, has
just recently returned home and
they arc now once more in the em
ploy of Mr. Sharp, who has kept
th-ir positions awaitinsr the time
when they might return and to
show his appreciation of their ef
forts in defending their native land.
h has given the !oys an advance of
twenty per cent in their salaries
which makes a pleasing addition to
their wages in these days of high
living prices. If anyone has a right
to display a working service flair
Mr. Sharp is certainly entitled to it.
! in marriage today at the home of
the bride's parents Mr. ami Mrs.
John Sayles, near Greenwood, and
expect to make their future home
near David City, where the groom is
located on a line farm. The bride is
one of the well known and popular
young ladies of the Greenwood com
munity and held in high esteem by
a large number of friends. She is
a niece of County Clerk George R.
Sayles of this city. The groom i.
one of the prominent young men of
near David City, and has been rear
ed to manhood in Butler county,
where he possesses a ha.-t of friends
who will join in wishing him joy
in his new found happiness.
FOR HUSBANDS AND WIVES.
From V.'e.lnfp!ny's Iriliv.
At;.i;i: ( every day there are iu
euirie; r-e ived asking where a
hi.-.i.-e suitable for a small family
can l.e secured for rental and the
situation has become such in the
city that hemes of any kind, large
or .-mall, lor rental purposes are ini
nossiMe to yccure. This is despite
ithe fact that many new homes have
h.ecn built io the pa-t ye.ir by the
j fuiidentii of the city, who tiring of
jthe h:irdhips of house hunting have
di t ided to build their own homes,
j but a ere.it number are not in posi-jti'-n
to build at .this time and . in
cou.-equenco must depend upon rent
ing. The Commercial club tf the city
has been laboring with the problem
for some time trying to induce those
who have idle capital to invest it by
the building of several cottages or
in the erection of another apart
ment homo that would be ab'.e to
shelter several families but so far
the effort has been without result
and those who have erected cottages
have been able to sell them almost
before they were completed.
():: of the chief reasons given by
many for not attempting te build
these houses for rental or, sale has
been the co.-t of building material
i: ; well as labor scarcity but those
who have the sale of building ma
terial have made the bet possible in
ducements t the public to allow
them to build as far as the change
abb markets would permit.
The succors of those who have ul
rei'dy erected cottages and homes
for rental purposes shriws that it is a
very paying investment for anyone
who has some idle money for in- 1
vesting.
