FORDSON TRACTOR
SALES INCREASE
April Expected to be Record-Breaking
Month in This Line Low
Price is Responsible.
Although the Ford Motor company
has been increasing the output of
Fordsons daily since the first of the
year, retail sales have maintained
even a greater advance.
April requirements necessitate the
building of four hundred Fordsons
a day, and production is being fur
ther Increased a3 rapidly as possible.
This is the Ford company's largest
output since 1919. and it is expected
that production will have'broken all
previous records before the end of
the month.
The increased buying of Fordsons
indicates that the farmer's position
Is better and also is the farmer's en
dorsement of the Fordson price-cut,
which created considerable comment
throughout the country.
Besides the Fordsons being sold
for farm use, many are being sold in
the cities as power units for hauling,
excavating, grading and other kinds
of Industrial work.

SUFFERS FROM
EFFECTS OF WAR
TIME SERVICE
Frank Urban, Former Resident of
This City, Suffers Mental
Trouble Front Service. .
From FriftaVa Daily.
One of those who have paid the
price of war in a terrible manner is
Frank Urban who was a resident of
Plattsmouth in 1916-17. and who is
now in the hospital at Prague. Cze-cho-Slavakia.
Mr. Urban was a cap
tain in the Czech army that served
with the allied troops in the world
war and was in a number of the
most vital drives of the war and dur
ing this time was wounded and suf
fered shell shock that has impaired
his health since. He was returned
to the hospital at Prague at the close
of the war and while he has grown
somewhat stronger in body, his mind
has failed to rally from the extreme
nervous shock of the service at the
front and he stead'iy has grown
worse. It is thought that the young
man will never fully regain his men
tal faculties as the result of the ex
periences through which he passed.
The government of the new re
public of Czecho-Slavakia has made
every effort to care for their, wound
ed and skk service nen and they
are being cared for io the govern

the shows have departed. The busi

of the Legion members in their ef
forts to help give the city a park
that will be practical for the uses
of 'a tourist park and are putting
their shoulder to the wheel in great
shape to help put the job over in
proper shape.
This shows the proper spirit or
community co-operation and the de
sire to assist in any public movement
and one that can well be emulated
by all of the residents of the city.
While Saturday is a rather hard
day to get at this line of work the
business men will do their part and
see that there is nothing left un

park in shape so that it can he used.

SHERIFF CALLED

LHO I CvkatillU
Trouble at the Heme cf Wra. Nelson
Where Wn. Irving- Was
ported as Being Insane.
From Friday' Lily.
Last evening Sheriff C. D. Quin
ton was called out to the vicinity of
Murdock ty a message announcing
that a man named William Irving
was creating a disturbance at the
home of William Nelson, where he
has been making his home and fo
the sheriff to get to the 5cene of ac
tion as soon as possible. In despoase
to the call the sheriff arrived on the
K-ene of action and quelled the near
riot and brought the gentleman in
I question on into this city to rest up
at the count- bastile until his case
could be heard. From the reports
from the scene it seems that Mr. Irv
infi had become filled with the dis
tilled spirit of Nebraska fertile corn
or some other equally inflamable li
quid that caused him to lose his us
ual spirit of self possession and there
upon he iad indulged in a general
argument that culminated in a large
part of the family chinaware being
broken up and a general rough
house. The residents of Murdock
were notified of the matter and a
number hastened to the scene but
were unable to successfully pour oil
on the troubled waters, but the sher
iff in his usual diplomatic manne:
succeeded in getting the insurrection
under control and brought the al
leged cause of the trouble on into
our peaceful city. It was first thot
that the man was taken suddenly
insane but later it was found that
it was merely a liquid outbreak and
would subside as the effects of the
rtimulant wore off. However, it cre
ated considerable stir in the vicinity
cf the Nelson home while it lasted.

Last evening the members of Home
Chapter No. 189. Order of Eastern

fraternity, Mrs. John Calvert, Mr.
and Mrs. W. K. Krecklow and Mrs.
William Holmes being the candi

manner by the officers and staff of
the chapter.
At the close of the lodge work the
members of the chapter were invited
to the banquet hall where the officers
of the order, who are soon to retire
irom office, had arranged a rare
treat in the form of a banquet and
which they were tendering to the
general membership of the order.
The banquet hall was very beau
tifully arranged for the event, with
streamers of colored crepe paper sus
pended from the ceiling and the
Hgh Is enclosed in red. casting a very
pleasing- glow over the scene. The
tables were arranged in the form of
the star, and each table representing
a star point was arranged in the
colors of the order red, white, blue,
yellow and green, with the center of
purple. Each table was decorated
with candles of the color of that
portion of the star they represented
and with baskets of flowers that
were also in keeping with the color
scheme of the occasion, This made a
very striking picture and one that
certainly showed a great deal of
skill and originality on the part of
the ladies who had the affair in
hand.
Mrs. William Baird, worthy ma
tron of the chapter, presided over
the feast and responces were made
by the new members as well as sev
eral others of the chapter member
ship and it proved an event over
flowing with the fraternal feeling
that drew the members together in
the principles of the order.
