What a Diff eren ce
Fresh Curtains Make
Pretty white or cream curtains, spick and span,
advertise good housekeeping. Not wholly for
their hospitable effect do curtains constitute such
an important household adjunct, but because they
are one glimpse of the interior of 3 our home
which passersby can see. Zion and Quaker Craft
Lace Curtains decorate windows in the finest
homes. It is economical to purchase curtain ma
terials from the bolt, as windows can be measured
exactly.

Plattsmouth, Nebraska
From Wednesday's Dally.
j The city election yesterday was
one that did not lure out a great
many of the voters as there were no
contests to speak of and the result
was that less than half of the vote
was out.
The three-cornered race for mem-
! bers of the board of education proved
the only contest of the day and re
sulted in the election of Mrs. William
A. Robertson and Frank E. Schlater
out of the three-sided field. The vote
showed Mrs. Robertson topping the
list with 383. Mr. Schlater 349, and
E. H. Wescott 300.
In the first ward, Councilman
Frank Bestor received 131 votes
while the friends of E. C. Harris gave
him eight votes for the position,
j For councilman In the second
ward there was more of a battle than
in any of the wards as work by the
i friends of former Councilman Frank
; F. Buttery caused the writing in of
his name on the ballot and he re
ceived 57 votes to 84 cast for Ex
Mayor John P. Sattler. Thirteen
ballots on which the name of Buttery
had been written but not voted for
were thrown out by the board but
this would not have affected the re
sult of the election of Mr. Sattler.
Councilman Ptacek had his name
, written In by four of the voters.
NEHAWKA MEN
URGE OPENING OF
A
Prominent Citizens of that City Here
Before County Commissioners
to Urge Needed Roadway.
From Wednesday's Dally.
Yesterday afternoon a "delegation,
composed of former Senator A. F.
Sturm, Vincent Straub, Raymond
Pollard, F. L. Nutzman, D. C. West
and Frank P. Sheldon, came up from
Nehawka to meet with the board of
county commissioners relative to a
road that it is desired to have opened
up and fixed for travel in the terri
tory a mile and a half west of the
town of Nehawka.
In that locality there is only one
road having a bridge over the Weep
ing Water creek and should any
thing occur to damage the bridge
the travel for a number of miles
around would be affected as this one
road is the only place of crossing. It
is desired by the farmers and towns
people as well to have a new road
fixed up that would be handier for
the travelers and would also assure
two bridges over the Weeping Water
leading to Nehawka instead of the
one.
The delegation pointed out the sit
uation to the commissioners, Messrs.
Straub, Pollard and Nutzman being
the chief spokesmen for the party
and their showing greatly Impressed
the board.
With a condition existing that
might cause a great Inconvenience
to travel in case the one bridge in
the Nehawka vicinity was damaged,
it would seem that they should have
some relief and the new road and
