Last evening the Misses Clara and
Alice Weyrich and Miss Estelle Baird
returned home from their auto trip
of several weeks to the west, and
which also included a stay in Denver,
where they enjoyed the many points

years standing and who has been a
vacation companion in the last few

several of their auto trips. Last year
this party of ladies enjoyed a trip to

PLATTSMOUTH JT VEUSXSKk
Highway North
of This City to be
Much Improved
Plans by State Department to Change
Present Road and Eliminate
Bottom Road.
From Tuesday's Daily
The condition of the road on the
Platte bottom north of this city has
in the past few days been very poor
and led to some Inquiries as to what
steps were being taken to press the
permanent improvement of the King
of Trails highway from this city to
Fort Crook to link up the graveled
roads and which has been greatly
needed in the present rainy spell.
The fact of the lack of drainage and
the general soil formation of the bot
tom land has led the state department
of public works to plan a new rout
ing of the highway through the Platte
bottom and which will follow from
the foot of the Will's farm hill, as
near as possible, the line of the Mis
souri Pacific railroad north to Oreap
olis where the road will cross the
Burlington tracks and thereby escape
the low ground farther east and
which is always more or less subject
to overflows in the wet and rainy
season.
The department hopes to have their
plans for the changing of the road
approved this week and be in a posi
tion then to go ahead with the pro
jected plans for the improvement of
the road and its graveling from this
city north to Fort Crook.
The state department has assurred
the local people that the road work
will be all completed this fall and
that by winter at the very least the
gravel road will be ready and in B(-rv-ica
for the people of southeastern Ne
braska in their auto traveling.
This is very pleasing new to the
residents of this part of the state and
they feel that they will have a part
of their dream of good roads come
true when the changes are made.
BIG CROWD AT PICNIC
The picnic held Sunday at the
Henry Field seed and bulb farm near
Bartlett, Iowa, was attended by some
2,500 persons, the larger part of
these being from this part of Nebras
ka and one of the best times of the
summer season was enjoyed by the
membra of the party. There will be
another picnic given there on next
Sunday and at which there will be
a large array of fine watermelons
available for the guests that may
wish to purchase them. The repres
entatives of the farm were here to
day and left a number of beautiful
gladiolus that are grown on the
farm there.
