A. San born, Greenwood. William Wilkins of Elmwood was a visitor in Greenwood on Wednes day of last week and was looking after some business matters for the day, and accompanied O. F. Ander son to Omaha where they went after a car for Mr. Wilkins. Sophas S. Peterson, the blacksmith is kept very busy with the work that is coming to his place of business, esepcially getting the farming ma chinery in readiness for the spring work. It is noticable how many list ers there is to put in condition. Mrs. Ella Marshall of Ashland was a visitor in Greenwood for over the week end, and was the guest while here at the home of her sister, Mrs. Catherine Coleman, and also was at tending the funeral of the late W. O. Lundy, which occured last Sunday. Frank Rouse who is a rustler for work has just about gotten the ex cavation at the Christian church com pleted and will let the building down on the foundation. He has to make a house east of town, and also one at Ashland and another at Louisville as soon a3 he can get to the work. Ernest Smith the apothecary the business being rather slow and he was laying for what trade could be gotten, was able to find time to make a kite for the kids and was as sisting in the flying of it, on last Wednesday afternoon. lie seemed to be enjoying tthe sport as well asj the coming generation. There has been some steps taken recently for the organization of a lire department, and a committee placed in the field for the purpose of more generally perfecting plans for the organization of the depart ment. Another meeting will be held in the near future for the perfect ing of the department and for the election of officers. Henry Wilkins, the new barber, has been in Greenwood all week and working like a tarter to get the shop in readiess for the opening which oc curred last Saturday. He is entire ly renovating the place and putting a system of waterworks in, in order that hem ay be able to install a bath and a department for the work for women, which Mrs. Wilkin will have in hand. Phillip Reese was looking after some business matters in Lincoln on last Wedesnday afternoon, and as he was away from town, the report that he was after a pair on marriage lic ense, gained currency, but we were loath to belive the report. Not that we should put it a bit past Phillip cf getting married, but we do not look for him to branch out into matri mony, when the indication for a dry summer is expressed. Just as O. F. Anderson was depart ing for Omaha for a new Buick six sedan which he had sold to William Wilkin of Elmwood, he told of busi ness being good, and that he had sold cars to the following persons, two cars to the Western Oil Co., a Pontiac to Frank Wheeler of Louis ville, who had just disposed of his oil station and acessory store, a J. M. C. truck to Guy Miller of Elm wood, and Fred Luestchsen and Parr Young each a Buick sedan. composed of Asence Loof, Ernest Fuschler, Carl Swanson and George A. Spidell.

Jardine has been selling many cars of the celebrated Chevro let, which he handles. He was out when we were in Greenwood for the past three weeks, hustling for busi ness and has been disposing of a large number of these wagons. He has been having some difficulty in getting them. These cars are of such excellent quality that there is a great demand for them. 4- MINIFY NftVS ITFMS DR. JOE J. STIBAL Telephone Ho. 3 James M.

VEHY DELIGHTFUL RECITAL Organized a Ball Team. Greenwood is not on the air, but her ball team will be on the diamond just the same, for they have a most proficient team to enter the season with.

The song which the broadcasting stations are singing now a good deal "Show Me the Way to Go Home," has an added significance when the traveders come in the Murray corner where the curve has been made, for many who are destined for the south are led away to the west and come even as far as Murray-, before they discover that they are not going to Nebraska City and the south. A plain marker at the Murray corner might save the tourist some gas and also some exasperation as well.
