r
In Artistic Display and Well Ar
ranged Show Windows This
City Ranks High.
Prom Thursday's Daily:
There has been a great deal or
stress made by large city stores on
the fact of the great beauty of their
show windows and in Omaha recent
ly a campaign has been staged to
give the best possible effects in th6
show windows of the city.
Now, while the subject of show
windows is being discussed, there
choral nf thp lnral stores that
have some very artistically arranged
fronts, a number of which have been
mentioned in the past by the Jour
nal. One of the places In the city
where the window dressing art is
shown to the best possible advantage
is at the store of the H. M. Soennich
sen company, on upper Main street,
where the new plate glass fronts give
some very pleasing effects to the pas
sersby of the stocks of goods that
may be found on the interior of this
store.
In the windows there is an artis
tically prepared display of all of the
various lines carried in the store it
self, which with the lighting effects
in the windows makes a most allur
ing picture and a great addition to
the business section of the city. They
have attracted the attention of all
those who have visited the city and
are real advertisements for this city
as a trading center.

TRUCK GETS STUCK
From Friday's Daily .
This morning while Fred Haffke
was out on his route delivering milk,
he had a most unpleasant experience
in trying to make the steep South
Fifth street hill, that he will not
soon forget. The truck had progress
ed up the hill as far as Pearl street
when the rear right hand wheel sank
into a "ditch recently made there and
was buried up to the bed of the truck
and it was after only the utmost
difficulty and the assistance of the
larger part of the population that
the truck was lifted by main force
from the mud and the driver able to
back down the hill with the loaded
truck.

STERLING FLEMING POORLY
From Friday's Daily
The last few days has shown the
condition of Sterling Fleming, who

Omaha, to be more serious than it
has since he has been at the hospital
and yesterday an X-ray picture was
taken of the j-oung man to try and
locate if possible the cause of his se
vere sickness that has covered the
last few weeks. The young man has
suffered a great deal from the illness
and its cause has been baffling to
the attending' physicians. He had
been feeling fairly well up until the

suffering a great deal and causing
some aprenension to the family and

TEAM HOOKS
LEGION FIVE
Local Organization Victors by Score
of 34 to 24 in a Gruelling
Battle Last Night.
From Thursday's Dally
Last evening the basketball fans,
who made the trip up the high school
hill, saw an exhibition of the favorite
winter pastime that was filled with
many thrills and spills.
The Plattsmouth Athletic club
team was an easy victor over the
American Legion team of Omaha,
winning by the score of 34 to 24,
In a struggle replete with much mix
ing. In the opening quarter the game
was close, the lead shifting from one
to the other of the teams, but fol
lowing the opening quarter the
Plattsmouth team gradually drew
away from the visitors. The Omaha
team also suffered from a large num
ber of fouls given them that Platts
mouth was fortunate in being able
to hoop for scores. The half ended
with the score of 18 to 12 in favor
of the locals.
The Omaha players were husky and
clever players and the two teams
apparently well matched in science
and strength and mixed freely thru
out the battle.
In the second half Plattsmouth
opened up on George Parrtsh and his
warriors with renewed vigor and kept
them at the smalf end of the score
for the remainder of the game.
For Plattsmouth Rothert was the
main basket gainer, with Sattler
second in rolling in the scores that
spelled victory for Plattsmouth.

"Nebraska City relatives knew that

ware that his ailment was serious un
til they were notified that he had
contracted meningitis a few days be
fore his death.
"Jack was born in Nebraska City
in the spring of 1913. He was an es
pecially attractive and popular young
man and had just recently visited
here with relatives and friend3.

David Tighe Is out again, navmg
been, for some time, feeling quite
badly on account of an attack of the
eriD which was not easily shaken off.
However, he is mending now and soon
hopes to be all right again.
R. Bergman, the merchant .and
postmaster of Manley, his traded his
old time friend off, the Saxon Car, and
in its stead has gotten an Essex Coach
whirh will make this gentleman, and

Edward Kelly and R. Bergman
were . visiting in Omaha last Mon- j
day where they went to look after;
some business matters and, where ,
Mr. Kelly remained for the week, and
there was nothing doing in the grain ;
business at this time.
Hans Nelson, who formerly lived'
just west of Manley on the state (
highway and, who some time since j
moved to Council Bluffs to make his":
home, was a visitor with inenas in
and about Manley last week, being
a guest at the home of Frank Berg
man and family.
The hard luck came the way of
John Stander last week when a bee
stung him in the eye and he stepped
on a board with a nail init the same
day and consequently was out of com
mission for a short time, but not
lang for in a day or so he was out
in the field working away.
The new law regulating the in
comes of the postmasters and the
postal employes benefited the post
office at Manley about one hundred
dollars per year. As the income from
this source has been quite meger this
slight increase comes with a welcome
that makes its reception appreciated.
The little, son of Mr. and Mrs.
John Murphy, who is at the hospital
at Omaha where he. underwent an
operation for appendicitis some time
since is reported as getting on fine
at this time. :His father was a visitor
of the young man last week and re
ported that the son will be able to
come home in a short time.
THE -TRADIANT" GROOU
The Columbia (S. C.) Piedmont, In
a recent issue, asks: "Did it ever

much attention as a delegate from a

of nations? It doesn t seem right.
The other nleht. when repeated
failures to get to sleep, dragged along
until the early hours, the observer
resolved to get to change that partic

to write a wedding story where the
Princess Mary gets no more space

"Mr. Phill Bert, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Bratil Nutt, of Nuttlngham, be
came the bridegroom of Miss Equal
Rights at high noon today. The
ceremony took place at the home of
the groom's parents, and was largely
attended.
"Mr. Nutt was attended by Mr.
Pecan as groomsman. As the groom
approached the altar, he was the
cynosure of all eyes. Blushing pret
tily, he replied to the questions of
the clergyman in low tones, but Arm.
"He was charmingly clad , in a
three-piece suit, consisting of a coat,
vest and pants. The coat, of some
dark material, was-xdraped a-bOut his
shoulders and tastefully gathered
cathered under the afmS. A. pretty
story was current among the wedding
guests that the coat was the Same
worn by his father and grandfather
on their weddine datfs. Mf. Nutt
does not deny the truth of the senti
mental touch. The vest was sleeve
less, and met in the front. It was
gracefully fashioned with pockets,
and at the back held together with
a strap and buckle. Conspicuous on
the front of the vest was the grdotn's
favorite piece of jewelry, an Odd Fel
lows pin, and from the upper left
hahd pocket was suspended a large
Ingersoll watch, the bride's gift to
the groom, which flashed and gave
the needed touch of brilliance to a
costume in perfect taste and har

the groom muffed the ring when the
groomsman . passed it to him. When
he stooped over to recover the er
rant circlet, the cerulean blue of
the galluses was prettily revealed.
"His neck was encircled with a
collar characterized by a delicate
sawedge, and around - the collar a
cravat was loosely; knotted so that
it rode up under; his left ear with
that studied carelessness which
marks supreme artistry in dress.

two stood at the altar a hush of
admiration enveloped the audience
at the condplete and wonderful har
mony of the raiment. Actually you

Other had it not been for a patch of
court plaster worn by the groom
Over the niche in his chin made by
a safety razor. Neither Mr. Nutt or
Mr. Pecan wore a hat at the

from the nuptials, it was noted that
she wore the conventional veil and
