Only those who have driven a Dodge Brothers
Special Sedan or any Dodge Brothers car
BUILT RECENTY can fully appreciate all
that Dodge Brothers have accomplished the
past few months.
So swiftly has improvement followed im
provement that today the car, to all intents
and purposes, is a different and incompar
ably finer vehicle.
The announcement of smart new body lines
and attractive color combinations first at
tracted general favor. But since then, im
provements even more fundamental have
been accomplished mechanically. '
Drive the car NOW! Observe its impressive
new silence, smoothness and elasticity of per
formance, and you will then begin to realize
just how vital end varied these and other
later improvements actually are.

Kroeger, of Omaha in the presence
of the near relatives of the contract
ing pair.
Promptly at the stated hour, when
the peals of the wedding march rang
out, the wedding party marched to
the altar where they were met by
the pastor, Rev. Theodore Hartman.
The bride walked with her maid of
honor who was also her sister, Miss
Minnie Stohlman while the bride
groom was escorted by his best man,
Evan Althouse, of Alvo. Miss Amanda
Stohlman, another sister of the bride
and Louis Kroeger, brother of the
bridegroom, also were attendants in
the line of march.'
They were preceded by little Ger-
aldine and Dorothy Fischer, of Platte
Center, nieces of the bride, who car
ried baskets of flowers and strewed
petals in their pathway. They are
four and five years old. Frederick
L. Stohlman, a cousin, played the
wedding march.
The bride was attired in white
georgette with lace trimmings and
wore a beautiful wedding veil. She
carried a bouquet of bride's roses and
baby breath. Her maid of honor was
gowned in pink georgette with pink
hat and carried pink roses. Miss
Amanda Stohlman wore a gown of
blue georgette .with hat and flowers
to match. The ring ceremony was
used.
The church was decorated in pink
and blue and presented a festive scene
and this wedding is probably one of
the prettiest that ever took place
within its walls.
The guests included Mr. and Mrs.
Frederick Stohlman, parents of the
bride, and their family' and Mr. and
Mrs. Kroeger, parents of the bride

He came to Nebraska in 1870, and
at that time the railroad came no
farther west than Pacific Junction.
Ia, at which point Mr. Ratnour set
out on foot, crossing the river at
Plattsmouth, where he saw two men
starting out with a load of lumber.
Being a carpenter, he was interested,
and found out that they were taking
this lumber to a point four miles
south and four miles west of Weeping
Water to build a house. He secured
the job of building this house, and
then returned to Weeping Water,
which at that time had four log
houses, two small stores and a grist
mill. He decided to make this his
home, and has lived here since that
time. One of his first contracts here
was the building of the Congrega
tional church, which has since be
come converted into the public lib
rary. About 125 were present at the ban

was spent.
J. M. Teegarden made the princi

Ratnour and the Mayor of Wabash,
who is also some "kid" 'in Masonry,
having belonged to the order for
about 45 years, also made short talks.
Mrs. L. R. Snipes gave some read

RESULT VERY PLEASING
From Friday's "Daily
The many friends in this commun
ity of Ray Denham, the young man
who with Josh Hammond were ac
quitted yesterday afternoon of any
part In the alleged hog stealing case,
were very mtich1 pleased with the
ruling of ' the base. -.
While Mr. Hammond is nrt so well
known here, Mr. Denham has resided
here practically all of his lifetime
and has many warm friends. The
story of the life of Mr. Denham i:
one of a great, deal of hardship and
constant labor and that he has come
through this ordeal is certainly a
pleasure to the many friends.
When a boy Mr. Denham started in
to work at the local Burlington sta
tion as a baggageman and to support
his aged grandmother and invalid
uncle and from his earliest years he
has been constantly on the grind with
his efforts to aid his loved ones. Later
he was sent to' Cedar Creek and has
since been there in the capacity of
agent and his work was both effi
cient and commendable with no com
plaint until the present charge was
brought and which fortunately has
been found without foundation as far
as any Intent of the young man to
commit a crime.
Now that he has been vindicated
it is hoped that Ray will be able to
add more pep and joy to his concert
work as a member of the Barnyard
Twins as well as continuing his work
for the railroad company.

From Friday's Dally
Last Tuesday it was my great
pleasure to visit the Burlington and
Refrigerator shops which I consider
an event in my life. Had been out
twice before but not thru the shops,
and this time with the fine courtesy
of Mr. Baird and Mr. Bronson made
a "running look' but find if a man
really wants to enjoy this plant, he
must figure on two or three ..days
and take his time.
The great machinery here, reflect
ing the ingenuity of man is an in
spiration in itself. The efficient order
of everything shows the talent of the
two men at the head of this organ

And the great affection of the em
ployees for their "boss is a tribute
to something in these men that is
deeper and greater than just "busi-

the executive who leads, is the ono
who can retain his discipline, and
at the same time the good will and
affection of his men, and in this
Mr. Baird and Mr. Bronson seem to
excell.
There is no organization or busi
ness in and around Plattsmouth that
is of the vital importance to this
city as these shops. There is no citi
zen in this place who has always been
a "greater booster" for Plattsmouth.
or who has had a more sincere in
terest in the progress and welfare
of Plattsmouth than Mr. Baird. This
is such a well known fact it hajdly
needs to be stated. But as loyal as
Mr. Baird is to Plattsmouth, I wish
to say emphatically that this city
stands ready at all times to co-operate
with the Burlington Route, "tooth
and nail," for the importance of this
organization is appreciated to the
fullest extent by every citizen of
Plattsmouth. "The Ad Club" and the
"Chamber of Commerce" will always
meet the Burlington more than half
way in any enterprise requiring co
operation. The first work I ever did after
leaving the farm was in the Armour
Car Shops' office at Kansas City and
the smell of the timber, hum of the
machinery in the C. B. & Q. shops
brought home vividly the early ex
periences with such machinery, men
and equipment at Kansas city. An
other thing I wish to mention, is the
clean, clear eyed, jovial bunch of
employees I met thruout the plant.
Wish I could have had time to shake
hands with every man on the pre-
iniseH- Instinctively I like the man
that works. He holds the most Im
portant place in the divine scheme
of the universe. Nothing is of value
