Cass County Ranks High in Its Highways Report of Department of Public Works Just Issued Places This County Third in State List. The report of the department or public works of the state of Nebras ka -which has just been issued in book form from the office of State Engineer Roy Cochran, gives Cass county a splendid standing in the counties of the state and shows Cass county for the year 1923-24 to have the rank of third in district No. 1 of the federal and state high way improvements, being only ex ceeded in mileage by Lancaster and Gage counties. The report gives the mileage of state and federal highways in this county as 86.50, and the amount of graveled and surfaced roads as 8.19 miles. At the time that the report was made the 'only gravel project in the county was that of Greenwood where , 8.19 miles comprised Cass county s Dart of the D. L. D. graveling. In the past year there has been 17 miles of gravel placed on the K. of highway from the Otoe county line to Plattsmouth. which gives a little over 25 miles of gravel on the state and federal highways. There is, in addition to the state and federal road gravel, 15 miles of surfaced road in Louisville precinc which is paid by the people of that precinct and while not appearing on the report owing to it's not being a part of the state program, is a vital part of the good roads system of Cass county. The mileage of the state and fed eral includes besides the Greenwood and th K. of T. roads, the "O" stree project and the Red Ball highway west from Murray to the Lancaster county line, both of which in the course of time will become graveled highways. In speaking of Cass county and Its road work the report of the state engineer has the following: "The topography of Cass county varies from the hilly country in the eastern part of the county near the Missouri river, to the more gently rolling land in the western portion About forty per cent of the mileage mproved by state and federal aid is loeated in the hilly portion of the county and the., remainder in the more level section.'" "The county board has adopted the policy of using all available sfate and federal funds to ormg tneir state highway system to a permanent grade, and extending county money to match funds raised locally for the purpose of meeting federal aid,, not met by the state, to construct gravel surfacing. In 1924 about ten per cent of their system had been gravel ed by this method of financing. The county supervision of tne maintenance of ! the state highway system Is divided between the county board members. -; On a part of the system the results obtainer average with the best obtained in district One. WHY SUFFER SO? Get Back Your Health as Other Plattsmouth Folks Have Done Too many people suffer lame, ach- insr backs, distressing kidney disora ers and rheumatic aches and pains. Often this is due to faulty kidney ac tion and there's danger of hardened arteries, dropsy, gravel or Brlght's disease. Don't let weak kidneys wear you out. Use Doan's Pills before it is too late! Doan's are a stimulant diuretic to the kidneys. Doan's have helped thousands. They should help you. Here is one or many i-ians mouth cases: Leland O. Bennett, living in the west part of the city, says: "Heavy lifting together with exposure weak ened my kidneys. My kidneys acted so freely I had1 to get up several times at night and the secretions scalded in passage. My back became so lame and sore I could hardly work, and a dull, gnawing ache made me lose my sleep at night. After using one box of Doan's Pills from the Mauzy Drug Co.. I was relieved and am not subject to these attacks any more." Mr. Bennett Is only one of many Plattsmouth people who have grate fully endorsed Doan's Pills. If your back aches if your kidneys bother you, don t simply ass ior a Kiuney remedy ask distinctly for DOAN'S PILLS, the Bame that Mr. Bennett had the remedy backed by home testimony. 60 cents at all dealers.

CASS COUNTY PROGRAMS From Saturday's Daily During the coming two weeks there will be three radio programs broadcast from Omaha and Shenan dofth. which are nut on by Cass county talent. The program which is to be put on by artists from Platts mouth at WOAW, Omaha, on next Friday evening is one that has had much advertising and is well worthy of all of it. The other two programs will be put on from KPNF, the Henry Field Seed rompany station at Shenandoah, Iowa one from Union in the form of a concert under the direction of Alda L. Taylor on Tuesday of this coming week beginning at 7 p. m. The third one will be by the Ruby Family band of near Weeping Water, under the direction of Mrs. E. M. Ruby, and will be broadcast from KFNF Thursday, November 19th at 7 p. m. An ad in the Journal is worth two on a billboard. church at Union, where in her child hood days, the departed lady had been a faithful and devout member and a willing worker In tne cause of the church that she bad loved and in the cause of the Master whose message she had received and car ried to others. The services were con ducted by the Rev. Runnels, pastor of the church, and who gave words of comfort to the sorrowing hearts in the broken family circle and to the friends who had gathered to pay their last tributes of love and respect to this estimable lady. During the service a quartet composed of Mr. and Mrs. Clifton B. Smith, Mrs. Bessie Garrett of Omaha and Ellis LaRue, sang three of the songs that had been favorites of the departed lady, "It Is Well With My Soul," "Sometime We'll Understand" and "Safe in the Arms of Jesus." At the close of the service thq cortage wend ed its way to the Swan cemetery, northeast of Union where the body was laid to the last sleep amid the once familiar scenes of the life of the departed. The death of Mrs. Everett has brought a great shock to the com munity in which her lifetime has been spent and doubly so because of the fact of its suddeness, Mrs. Ever ett being taken sick on Tuesday with a sudden attack of uremic poisoning and gradually growing worse until death came to her relief Wednesday night at the home two miles south east of Union, where since her mar riage Mra Everett and her husband have made their home on the Davis farm. Angie McCarroll, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. McCarroll, was born thirty years ago at the family home in Liberty precinct and the story of her life has been lived out in the community where she passed away. She was educated in the schools at Union and in Plattsmouth and after the close, of her school work followed the teaching profession for a number of years, being one of the most effi cient and popular members of the teaching 'force of the Cass county schools. Later she was engaged as bookkeeper in the Bank of Union where her splendid ability made her almost invaluable in the handling of the affairs of the" bank and where her pleasant personality made a great many menus. , On June 11, 1924, Miss McCarroll was united in marriage to Mr. Leslie Everett, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Everett, prominent residents of Liberty precinct, the wedding Join ing two of the old families of that part of the county. Since the mar riage Mr. and Mrs. Everett have been making their home on the farm and have been numbered among the Industrious young people of that por tion of Cass county. To survive and mourn the passing of this splendid lady there remains the young husband, the parents, Mr. and Mrs. John McCarroll and two sisters. Mrs. Louis Mougay, of Union, and Mrs. Clifford McQuinn of Ne- havvka. To the bereaved family the deepest sympathy of the host of friends over the eastern portion of Cass county will be extended in their loss that has taken from them a kind and lov ing wife, a devouted daughter and a loved sister. if i Outstanding values made possible by our Sale" year 'round price.

Several of the hunting parties so far this season have secured good bags of ducks, but these have been snagged by the best prepared and skillful of the hunters, the larger part of the shooters having had but little luck in this sport aside from the delights of trying as the ducks have shown a shyness at falling for the decoys and other devices to lure them into the blinds.

From Saturday's Dally "Doc" Bond, who has ju3t moved to this city from Omaha and engaged with) the Modern Construction Co., as a mechanic, was the victim of a very severe accident on Thursday near Pullerton, where the Modern Con struction Co. has had a very large contract on road graveling. Mr. Bond was driving a large White truck loaded with material for the graveling work along the high way when suddenly a large oil truck crashed into his truck, throwing the loaded White truck over to the curb I of the highway and where it was badly damaged. The truck in which Mr. Bond was riding was thrown against a telephone pole and which was broken off by the impact, the pole falling so that it crashed into the cab of the truck, narowly escap- ng striking Mr. Bond directly and as it was, catching the right leg in such a manner as to cause a fracture of the limb. The injured man was taken to the Methodist hospital in Omaha where he is now reported as resting as easily as possible under the condi-1 tion of his broken leg. The Modern Construction Co. .crew that has been working out of Fuller- ton has ben transferred to St. Ed wards where they are now working on one of their state contracts.
