OFFICEKS ELECTED AND PEEP-
ARATIONS MADE FOB, A
YEAK OF PEOGEESS.
From Thursday's Dally.
The members of the chamber of
commerce met last evening at the
public library auditorium and de
spite the fact that the elements were
de M-d!y against the attendance of
anyone at the meeting, a pleasing
numtiT were on hand when the ma
chinery was set in motion by Presi
dent Sattler.
The first order of business as an-
nouncea was mat oi ine election oi
the new officers for the year and
a good start when the name of Henry

despite the protests ofA the drafted
candidate, who was drowned out in
the storm or enthusiasm that the
members felt over the election.
For vice president the club reach
ed out and drafted another of the
faithful workers back in the harness
in the person of John P. Sattler and
while Mr. Sattler expressed his desire
to stand on the side lines he was

At this time Roy Knorr, who has

the club for several years, took op

left to the discretion of President
Schneider to pick someone with
whom he was familiar and who
would make a good second for the
team of boosters. The final selection
of Mr. Schneider wiil be given out at
a later date. '.
A number of the members were'out the same policy in allowing the'Keck of Polk Comes Forward with
wneii ,iia entnusiasm over ine pros -
pects for the ensuing year and sev-
eral peppy talks were iveTMrr differ -
ent members on som- of the things,
that the chamber of commerce could
and should io in the ensuing year.
C. C. Wescott urged that , the officers
be given a financial backing that
would enable them to carry out the
various projects that arose from time
fntiiTiP in cnrinr nw footnrio. anH
indastries and acting on matters that
might need the expenditure of small
stvjs. He remarked on the fact that
the city was emerging from one of
the worst years in its history, and
that the future was filled with prom-
133 of great results, with new en
thnciaom q ti? r o-co,..,! -u
confidence
Georire Pe'rintr stated that otip nf
ue re.nag Siairu inai one OI
the things that the club should try
and do was the securing of some
small industry here to occupy the
building once used by the M. E.
nrfil
could be easily done and other small
factories urged to come here.
E. H. Wescott paid a very touch
ing tribute to the late L. C. Sharp,
long a member of the chamber of
commerce and a booster all the years
for Plattsmouth and whose sugges
tions were always filled with the
spirit of the future greatness of the
community in which, he had been
reared and to which he returned in
later years to make his home. What
Mr. Sharp had done for the com
munity should be recognized and
would be more and more appreciated
now that he was gone, Mr. Wescott
stated. On motion a committee to
urart resolutions oi respect to tne
memory of Mr. Sharp was named.
and was composed of C. C. Wescott.
S. S. Chise and J. P. Sattler.
Prcsiaent-eieet Srhneider was call-
cd to the chair by the retiring presi-
dent and gave a few of his hopes for
tne coming year ana some oi tne
things that the organization could
ana snoum do at tnis time. Air.
Schneider stated that in the re-or-
ganization of things following the
past seven months of uncertainty and
unrest there would be a great !
amount of residence property on the
market here and also a great demand
for new homes by strangers who had
come here to live and this was one
of the big items of the reconstruc
tion period. He urged a greater co-
operation in assisting those who
were here looking for new homes.
Mr. Schneider also urged the boost-
,t, r..m o ,i,eoH
here, the Nebraska Masonic Home
and the Sharp machine shops in par-
titular. He outlined his plans for a

TED LEWIS VIA RADIO
For three successive nights there
has been broadcast from Kansas City
music by the Ted Lewis orchestra
appearing there this week with the
Follies show. This show was ;in
Omaha last week, but no effort ap
parently was made to broadcast the
music of these celebrated playtrs
from ' the Grain Exchange statLnn
there. Doubtless when the new sta
tion of the Woodmen of the World
gets in operation, sponsored as - it
will be by the Chamber of Commerce
and business interests of the me
tropolis generally, no opportunity
will be neglected to pasa along to
"llstenera-in" every available liish
tlass program in which the Ted Lein
music could well be clashed.

thanks for the beautiful flowers giv
en by the auxiliary of the Shopcrafts

membered. MRS. HENRY STEIXHAUER.
