MRS. LUGSCH IMPROVING
From Wednesday's Daily
The reports here today from the
Methodist hospital in Omaha state
that Mrs. Fred Lugsch, who was op
erated on their Monday evening for
an acme case ot appendicitis, is now
showing very pleasing progress and
it is hoped that in the next few days
she may be well on the highway to
improvement. The case of Mrs
Lugsch was a very serious one and
she was taken to the hospital just
in time as the appendix was in very
bad shape and a few hours delay
would probably have resulted very
seriously for the patient. Under the
present condition it is hoped to have
her on the highway to improvement
in a very short time.

Major Sattler in his farewell to
the retiring council expressed his ap
preciation of their assistance and co
operation in the past two years and
the enjoyment that he had received;
from their asociation at the meetings
and felt that they had all tried to
their best for the interests of. the
city. To the new members of the
city government Mr. Sattler express
ed his heartiest good wishes and that
the citizens of the community had
entrusted them with the duties of
government and while they could not
please everyone they should do what
they considered for the best interests
of the city. No official could please
everyone but with harmony and the;
best interests of the city in view they
cculd do a great deal for the city.
He offered his aid in any way to the
new officials.
The oath of office was then admin
istered and the new mayor and coun
cilmen took their places to start in
on the grind of the next year.
Mayor Johnson on taking the chair
thanked the outeoincr officials andt
expressed his appreciation of the ex
cellent handling that they had given
tne city affairs. It was not in the
offices that they held that new city
"officials would receive their reward
but in the feeling of having done their
iuh duty to the Deoole of the city
tnat they would receive their reward.
