The public paid more than forty-five million dollars for new Studebaker
iiig-bix automobiles m 1922, buying more of this model than
other car selling in the same price field.
In the entire world there were only eleven other automobile manufac
turers whose total sale of all models equaled the sale of Studebaker
Big-Sbces for 1922, and no other manufacturer sold as many cars of the
Big-Six class. In addition to the Big-Six, Studebaker builds the Special-Six
and the Light-Six in large volume.
For the first quarter of 1923, Big-Six sales showed an increase
of 70 per cent over the same period of 1922, evidencing the growing
popularity of this model. Big-Six popularity is the result of Big-Six
superiority. Materials and workmanship are unexcelled in any car at
any price, and unequaled in any car at the Big-Six price.
With its long 126-inch wheel base, big 4K-inch tires, heavy frame,
scientifically distributed load, long Studebaker-made springs, the Big
Six Speedster rides more comfortably than most cars selling at much
mere money. Its 3 Js x 5 motor delivers a world of power, plenty of
speed and a quickness of getaway hard to equal.
The price is the result of quantity production. -
The name STUDEBAKER is assurance of quality. It has
high grade transportation for seventy-one years.

ber 4, 1879. To this union was born
a daughter, now Mrs. Cora Voden of
Chicago.
On February 17. 1SS6 he was
married to Cora C. Smith at Auburn,
Nebraska. To this union were born
Meddie Mabel, Ina Dell, Leah Jaun
ita, Wellington Wave, Irene Eliza
beth and Udell Harrison. These
children with the exception of Ina
Dell, who died in infancy, survive
their father, and are here today with
their mother to mourn his loss.
Mr. Mestre lived at Auburn until
last October when with his wife he
came to Murray to reside near his
daughter, Mrs. Stasky. During the
last few months of his life his health
declined rapidly. He confessed Christ
as his Saviour and expressed his will
ingness to go to the better land. He
was enrolled as a member of the
United Presbyterian cliurcn of Mur
ray whose members together with
parties were present to enjoy the
rare treat afforded them.
The opening number on the pro
gram was "Staccato Caprice" by Vo-
jgrich, played bf Mrs. Lillian Free
I man at the piano and was a very ar
tistic rendition of this high class
number. In fact the whole program
j was one of the greatest value from
i lie sianupuini oi nigu ciass music.
The Masonic quartet, composed of
Frank A. Cloidt. Rev. H. G. McCIus
ky, Dr. R. P. Westover and L. O.
Minor, gave two very pleasing num-
'bers, "My Ain Folks" by Lemon and
"Lord, Hear Thou My Trayer."
Mr. Cloidt was heard in a group
!of two songs, "Sing le to Sleep" by
! Greene and "Mother Machree" by
Ball and the voice of the tenor sing
er came in very clear and fine over
J the air. ,
One of the numbers very pleasing
Jjto the radio fans was the whistling
solo of Miss Alice Louise Wescott,
"Amoureuse Waltz," and also "The
Whistler and His Dog," and in these
selections Miss Wescott was accom
panied by her uncle, E. II. Wescott,
at the Baldwin grand.
One of Plattsmouth's favorite vo-
l calists, Edna Marshall Eaton, had
the distinction of being the first of
J , the artists to have her voice broad-
si cast over tne new izi meter wave
length and gave as her numbers
"Somewhere a Voice is Calling" by
Tate and "A Bowl O' Blue" by
Stoughton, and the sihger was heard
clearly and distinctly in each of
these, and to those listening in it
was noticeable that the new wave
length did away with the interfer
ence found in the lower wave length
altho it was not noticeable in the ex-
cellence of the tone qualities. Chris
tine Coughlin was the accompanist
in this selection.
i Mrs. Roy ' Cole of Mynard was
heard at the piano in "Valse in E"
by Moszkowski , and in which her
playing was at the best and thor
oughly enjoyed. '
Don C. York gave two very pleas
ing baritone solos, "Little Mother O
Mine" and "Sorta Miss You" by Bur
leigh" and Smith, and was accompan
ied by Miss Mable Lee Copenhaver.

and Mrs. A. Z. Johnson and Mr.
and Mrs. Mike Bauer file their an
swers to the petition of the people
who are trying to establish their
title to the premises.
The answer, filed separately, set
up the statement that more than 30
years ago the late Adam Kloos
bought the property, then attached
to the mainland of Otoe county.
They farmed it, cut wood and sold
it, and, in fact, were in peaceable
possession of the premises.
Several years , later, the well
known vagaries of the Missouri
river became manifest in an extraor
dinary manner one spring and sev
eral succeeding springs and in due
time the river ran between the Kloos
and Bauer "land and the mainland,
cutting it off entirely and surround
ing it by water. The defendants al
lege they were still in peaceable and
notorious possession, ownership
which has never been disputed until
recently. .
In 191S the island was leased to
one Josh Gilson for a chicken ranch.
The next year he transferred hl3
lease to Ira Bates. The heirs of Bates
are the plaintifTs in the suit who
seek to establish their ownership to
the land. The defendants aver that
at no time did Bates or any of his
people have any right, title or inter
est to the property except such a3
they may have received through thi
lease to Gilson.
Mrs. Rosa Sand, owner of consid
