Yesterday we had the pleasure of
inspecting the pool in the Wescott
grounds and aside from its great
impressed
was done
by a Plattsmouth man, William Kief.
This is no advertisement for Mr.
Kief, but is is for the public spirit
that prompted Cliff to hire a local
man to do this work. The founda
tion required expert knowledge of
cement construction, and some would
have felt as though they must send
away for a man to do it. However
it is done beautifully and the money
remains at home. The right sort of
spirit to show.
Visiting with Mr. Linn, superin
tendent of the Missouri Pacific Platte
river bridge construction work, we
learn that he buys Plattsmouth bread
for his camp. Mr. Linn is here and
gone tomorrow, as they say, yet he
gives his business to our bakery in
terests. In this he offers a challenge
to the citizens of Plattsmouth to
meet his public spiritedness.
Some say there is no sentiment in
business but that is crude wisdom.
Business is founded on sentiment and
a fine spirit of idealism I dare you
to look into our beautiful store win
dows and deny this statement of
ours.
On Sunday Booster Bob Bates drove
us over to our neighboring little city
of Cedar Creek to see the fishermen!
Cars from Omaha and other cities
were lined up along the beautiful
fishing pools. We could not help but
appreciate what great opportunities

A commercial swimming pool at
Plattsmouth with large dance pavil
lion, a good orchestra and a tea room
would draw crowds from Omaha and
other points, for the drive, as well
as the use of the pool and the danc
ing. If you tan suggest any one
who would or could finance this,
drop in.
Dances and entertainment in the
new Legion community building will
draw many Omahans here, now that
gravel roads from the metropolis are
j available. Every out of town car in
jour city means some money left here.
The filling stations, restaurants and
refreshment parlors may seemingly
get the bulk of this trade, but their
prosperity results in some of this same
money finding its way into the cash
registers of other firms who may not
be open to get it first hand. ,
The business men, in considering
the parking of cars to leave room for
'shoppers to draw up to the curbs.
will do our rural trade a great kind-nes-s,
and it iias been several weeks
since this same suggestion was made
thru this column.
There are hundreds of complaints
registered in this office over the stop
signs on our KT highway. For the

SModern smokers praise the

THIS is the age of frankness and plain-speaking, and it
rates Camel first among cigarettes.
For Camel is that kind of a smoke. Camel is all quality
and no false front or show. Camels are made of the choic
est Turkish and Domestic tobaccos grown no substitutes.
And the finest blending ever given a cigarette. .
It is Camel character that has won the smokers of today
such honesty of taste and fragrance as never was known
in a cigarette before. You'll find all dreams of smoking

But we do make this appeal fre
quently on the basis of just plain,

It is not a duty to patronize your
own merchants and industries, but it
is to your own interest to do so.
There is no sentiment In that we
don't make an appeal with sob-fests,
or tears, or gnashing of teeth!
Cliff Wescott in hiring Kief to
build his pool, kept the money at
home to be spent again in Platts
mouth. Firms buying shrubs, plants
and flowers from Jasper, keep the
money at home to buy groceries
meats, shoes and clothes in Platts
mouth. You can't take your auto
mobile to Lincoln or Omaha and
equip it with tires, or a new top,
and expect your local garage men to
increase their forces to buy meat and
taters in Plattsmouth. No sentiment
in thi3. And you peculiar people who
get a thrill from buying furniture.

(doncha know) not only cripple your
friend-neighbor in business, but even

is not sentiment it is "bloody,

to which some men refer with a
swelling of the chest, should of
course mean "Plattsmouth's tailor."
"I, me and mine" have killed many
