With the joyous Christmas season at hand again, attention is being turned to the proposal to have an other municipal Christmas tree simi lar to that of last year which was provided by the Nebraska Gas and Electric company and the American Legion acting in conjunction. But always, there is a regret ex pressed that we do not have a suit able building in which to house such a tree, enabling the giving of a pro gram before the distribution of gifts that would serve to teach the hun dreds of little folks the true mean ing of Christmas. This is but one of many uses to which the Legion's new community building could be put. Plattsmouth has long needed such a building and when we get it, the social life of the city will be greatly improved.

STIBAL Telephone No. 3 Community Building Sure Go in 1927 Legion Sentiment Strong for Consu matien of Building Plans with Aid of Carnival Money. From Friday's Dally With the highly successful termi nation of the Legion's indoor carni val and the aid of funds already sub scribed, the prospects for a commun ity building in Plattsmouth look ex ceedingly promising. When carnival proceeds are trans- thousand dollars of which are now invested in certificates of deposit in i Plattsmouth banks, the total will be j within $300 of the $10,000 goal set at the beginning of the drive. A contribution of $25 voted some months ago by the Eagles lodge will also be available at this time, adding to the grand total. Until definite assurances could be !had that the building would be erect ed, no persistant effort was made to collect in the money of firms which had signified their intention of pay ing their contribution in one lump sum. but now it is planned to collect in every cent subscribed and add it to the time deposits drawing interest until spring, when it will be needed to finance the building. i Abandonment of a plan to vote bonds and make the building a mu nicipal owned structure has result- jed in several contributors announcing their intention of doubling their do nations, already in some instances as much as $50, since they will be re lieved of the tax burden the bonding plan would entail. The newly elected Legion com mander is strongly in favor of get ting the building next year and with a capable Legion building committee and an advisory committee composed of Judge James T. Begley, Attorney Wm. Robertson and R. A. Bates, the interests of everyone concerned will be well conserved. Next year's Legion carnival will be held in the new community audi torium and countless civic meetings, etc., will be accommodated there free in the years to come as part of the Legion's unselfish plan of commun ity betterment.

Zimmerman conducting the funeral service, and the remains were laid away to rest in the Eagle cemetery. The Grand Army service was con ducted by Commander Moore of the Soldiers' Home, assisted by the pas tor, who acted as chaplain.
