PENNANT SOLICITORS
From Friday's Daily
At the noonday luncheon of the
Plattsmouth Ad clutr yesterday bo-!
licitor for each block in the business
section was appointed, to look after
the canvas for the sale of "Welcome"
pennants to go on the flag poles used
in street decoration here on days
other than when it is proper to dis
play the National Emblem itself.
These pennants are 3x6 feet in size,
of red, white and blue bunting, the
wording "Welcome" being printed in
large letters on the field of white at
the center. They are fast color, and
come complete with gromlets ready to
hang on the poles, being furnished
by the same company that furnished
the street decorations here. By tak
ing a quantity at one time, a price of
75 cents each has been secured and
they will be sold at this price, the Ad
club sponsoring their sale without
any idea of profit, as did the Legion
the sale of the flags some years ago.
The Legion has purchased 200 of
the posters, "Rules for Display of the
Flag," with illustrations in color, and
will furnish these together with a
card listing the days on which it is
fitting and proper to unfurl Old Glory
to the breeze free of charge to every
flae outfit owner.
To facilitate speedy distribution of
these posters and cards, they will be
placed in the hands of the Ad club
solicitors to be given out as they
make the rounds selling pennants.

tough time today in the use of rab

From Saturday's Lally
The state bridge commission that
was authorized by the legislature in
1925 to look over the matter of the
securing of free bridges between the
states of Iowa and Nebraska, met at
Lincoln yesterday to discuss the plans
for presentation to the coming ses
sion of the legislature in 1927.
This commission was authorized to
examine and recommend the sites at
Omaha, Sioux City and Nebraska City
for crossings for f rea .bride-ea and in
the furtherance of this movement cen-
eus of the number crossing the
bridges already in use at these points
has been taken.
Since the enactment of the legisla
tion creating the commission there
lias developed in the state the plan of
a general bridge program over the
Missouri river that has in addition to
the first three sites the proposition of
bridges at Plattsmouth, Rulo and
Blair, which would adequately sup
ply the different sections of the coun
try. The residents of Lincoln and the
territory through the central por
tion of the state have recognized the
need of a bridge at Plattsmouth to
adequately supply the proper means
;f travel for this part cf the state and
the matter has been very ably pre
sented a number of times by the Lin
coln chamber of commerce officials
and particularly by B. A. George, the
