From Monday's Daily
Saturday afternoon at the home of
the officiating: clergyman, the Rev.
Uncle Henry De Long, of Council
Bluffs. Iowa, occurred the marriage
of Miss Ethel Born and William Bar
tek, well known young people of this

lives of these young people.
Following the ceremony the newly
weds returned to Plattsmouth. where
they were guests of Mrs. Martha
Wetenkamp, prior to locating in the
home they have established on North
Sixth street. A bride's cake baked by
Mrs. Wetenkamp was cut at a recep
tion attended by only a few of the
very close friends.
The bride is a daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Louis Born, residing in the
vicinity of Cedar Creek, but for the
past year or more she has been em- j
ployed in this city and at Omaha. She
is accomplished in the attributes of
home making and a talented piano
player and has all the qualifications
of a helpmate to the man she has ac-
cepted as her life partner. j
The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs.
John Bartek, and has proven himself
an industrious young man. He is now
employed as truck driver by the L. B.
Egenberger store and is experienced
in farm work and other lines of en-j
deavor. j
The young couple got settled in
their new home at the Mrs. White
residence on North Sixth street to
day, where they are now at home to
their friends.
SOME FINE FARMS
One section of Cass county that
can boast some very fine farms is
that of Mt. Pleasant precinct where
the softly rolling land fs every year
yielding great harvests of the nec
essities of life and where fine cat
tie and stock are to be found at all
of the farms in that section of the
county.
One of the most attractive farms
in the northeastern part of Mt.
Pleasant is that of H. F. Gansemer,
situated some five miles west and two
miles north of Murray. The farm is
well situated with the fine rolling
land that is almost sure each year to
bring forth abundant crops. Mr.
Gansemer has been engaged in feed
ing and caring for a great deal of
cattle and hogs which are cared for
in the most up to date manner with
large barns, shed and feed yard3 to
assist in their proper care and hand
ling. The farm is splendidly equip
ped with buildings of all kinds and
with the energetic farming of Mr.
Gansemer and his sons the place is
kept in the best of shape.
A fine and comfortable home on
the farm adds to its attractiveness
and gives every comfort to the mem
bers of the family and makes the farm
life a great deal more attractive than
otherwise and here Mrs. Gansemer
keeps the household in as perfect
running order as the farm itself.
It is one of the many very pleasant
farms in that section of Cass county.

No Lack of
Entertainment
at Carnival
Unique New Features, Fine Nightly
Door Prizes, Etc. to Contribute
to Interest in Event.
Arrangements for the annual in
door carnival of the American Legion,
to be held November 13, 15, 16, 17th,
are progressing nicely. The big at
traction will be staged in Coates hall,
which has recently been reinforced
and made absolutely safe for the
handling of capacity crowds. The en
tire third floor, including the dance
hall, check rooms, kitchen and club
rooms of the Eagles lodge will be re
quired for the different booths and
attractions, practically all of which
will be new this year, it is announc
ed by the committee. Among the con
cessions of the Harvest Festival will
be "Jack and Jill." "Figgly Wiggly,"
"Hinky Dink." "Sweet Shop." "Board
of Trade," "Wonderland" and the old
reliable "Cash and Carry Hardware."
New prizes, new games of skill and
new costumes for booth workers will
be featured. The hall decorations
will be appropos of the season "When
the frost is on the pumpkin; and the
fodder's in the shock."
There will be entertainment galore
this year and no expense will be spar
ed to give the patrons the best mu
sical and feature acts possible to se
cure. The nightly door prizes will also
be far ahead of anything ever given
in this line before, a committee now
being engaged in looking after this
feature and the complete list will be
found on the large bills to be issued
next week.
The grand capitol prize of the four
day fun festival will be the Chevrolet
coach purchased of J. B. Livingston,
local Chevrolet dealer a brand new
1927 model to be picked from incom
ing shipments early next month and
placed on display. In the history of
Legion carnivals to date, the organi
zation has given away three Ford
cars a touring in 1920. a touring in
1923 and a Fordor in 1924. Last year,
an Overland sedan was awarded and
this year the Chevrolet coach was se
lected by the committee.
The big feature attraction for Sat
urday night, Nov. 13 will be the Cass
county hog calling contest, with a
handsome cash prize for the winner.
Entries in this event are free, the
only restriction being that one must
be a resident of Cass county. A junior
hog calling contest for the same
evening is also under consideration.
Already numerous cries of "po-o-e-ee"
are being heard, as the embyronic
callers are getting in practice. m
Another feature attraction is the
contemplated presence' of the popular
KFAB radio announcer, Gayle Grubb,
better known as "Gloomy Gus." As a
musician, composer and entertainer,
Mr. Grubb occupies a stellar position
in the radio world and although hi3
silent night at the "mike" falls on
Thursday, John Livingston, the local
Buick and Chevrolet dealer has prom
ised to exert his best influence with
the Buick people at Lincoln to get
him released from duty Tuesday nite,
so he can be here for the carnival.
Other entertainment features are
under consideration, including danc
ing after 10:30, and a big time is in
store for old and young at the Amer
ican Legion's annual indoor Harvest
Festival.
The proceeds will be added to the
community building fund, being spon
sored by the Legion and will eventu
ally be expended to give Flattsmoutn
the fine auditorium it has long been
in need of. Certainly no more worthy
undertaking could be arranged, and
as in the past with Legion conduct
ed enterprises, the public will be on
hand nightly giving it the best of
support. 1
