! Yesterday afternoon the baseball
fans who journeyed to the local ball
park had the opportunity of enjoy
ing a bargain day baseball treat in
the two games that were staged by
the local teams, the Modern Wc-edmen
taking on the Louisville second team
i while the Athletics were opposed by
the Janda Funeral Home team, of
Omaha.
In the opener, the Woodmen had
little trouble in winning from the
Louisville aggregation and the score
at the close was 12 to 9 for the
! fraters. but the score should have
been 12 to 5 but for the wildness of
Hriggs. who was used in the last in-
' nings by the Woodmen and who
walked in several scores. Clark, who
did the hurling for the local team at
Ithe outset of the game was able to
jhave good control, but with a sore
arm. he wished to be relieved. J.
Newton and Fleischman were the
battery for the Louisville team.
The nightcap of the twin bill was
'one in which the Janda Funeral
Home team did many things to the
locals and won by the score of 13 to
7. Alex Schliscke was the opening
pitcher for Plattsmouth, while in the
last inning. Joe Krejci did the hurl-

State Probe of Glenwccd Home Or
dered After Parent's Make
Their Charge
Glenwood, la., July 2G. A state
investigation of conditions at the
home for feeble-minded children
here will start tomorrow morning
following charges made by an Iowa
man that his 7-year-old child was
mistreated at the institution.
Fred Bryant, former commander of
the American Legion post at Bur
lington, today made the charges in
a complaint to Attorney General
John Fletcher.
Bryant's complaint said that on
visiting his son Richard at the in
stitution July 9 he found the boy in
a weakened physical condition and
his limbs covered with bruises. The
child was placed in the Glenwood
home June 13. ;
Bryant removed his son from the
home, and he is now in a hospital at
Burlington undercoinc treatment, it
was sniil. !
Hearing Planned at Once.
G. Norman Clark and State Sen
ator A. M. McColl, members of the
state board of control, and Assistant
Attorney Gerald O. Blake will arrive
here at midnight from Des Moines to
conduct the investigation. Bryant
and his wife and a physician from
Burlington arc expected to arrive
here early Wednesday morning.
Dr. George Mogridge. 71, who has
been with the institution as assist
ant, superintendent and superintend
ent 38 years, the past 24 as superin
tendent, in a statement to The
World-Herald tonight said:
"I welcome the investigation. It is
the first complaint ever made against
the conduct of the institution in the
38 years I have been here. The boy
was not mistreated here.
Was Inmate Three Weeks.
"He was brought here June 13 by
his father and his mother's parents.
I gathered from their conduct the
grandparents and mother were
rather opposed to placing him here
but the father desired it. The boy
was a hopeless mental case, and
without any physical control of him
self. He had to be cared for like a
baby.
"The institution, which has 1,650
inmates, was badly overcrowded, but
I made room for this child because
of his condition and the great charge
he must have been on his parents.
"It is true that he was bruised.
He sometimes fell and bumped into
things trying to get about. But he
was similarly bruised when he was
brought nere. He was given every
attention, and there never was a
time day or night an attendant was
not in sight of him. Much of the
time an attendant had to be detailed
to care for him individually because
of his condition.
Strict Watch Kept.
"The attendants are very careful,
and know they will be dismissed in
stantly if there ever is any sign of
nn inmate being mistreated. The
children are segregated by sexes,
with attendants of their own sex in
charge of each division.
"The only regret I have that the
charges were made is that other par
ents of children here may fear they
are being mistreated, which is not
the case.
"My explanation of the charges is
that the father's family regretted
plac ing the child here, and the father
made this excuse to take him back
home.
"On July 9 I met the father and
grandparents on their way here in
a car as I was going to Omaha. I told
them I would be back in a short
time, and for them to wait, but when
I returned here they had taken the
child away."

The following suggestions for im
proving the quality of market eggs
are being sent out this month to all
of the University Record Flock co
operator of Nebraska:
1 Provide clean nests. The egg
shell is porous and absorbs filth and
mold which pass thru and flavor or
spoil the egg.
. 2 Provide one nest for every five
hens. Crowded nests result in brok
en eggs and dirty nests.
3. Gather eggs at least twice daily.
This hot weather and a few setting
hens will cause eggs to start develop
ing into chickens in a very short
1D4e Store eggs in a clean, cool, moist
place free from mustiness and odor
of kerosene and onions.

5. Avoid handling eggs unneces
sarily. This hastens the breaking
down and spoiling process.
C. Market eggs at least twice a
week. Under average farm condition.;
eggs are one product that do not im
prove with age.
Will Practice on Actual Records.
Those boys and girls who keep a
far mrecord book this tall In school
instead of taking the oIC course in
bookkeeping will use the figures and
facts from an actual farm record kept
by a Nebraska farmer. They will
make his beginning inventory just
as he made it at the start of the year
to see how much properly he had
with which todobusiness. Then they
will make the entries in the record
book as the farmer made his en
tries, they will make a closing inven
tory to see how much property is left
in the business, and then summar
ize the year's business. All this work
will be done under the direction of
the teacher who will be furnished
with a completed and accurate re
cord book. When the semester is over
and the course completed, the stu
dent should be able to keep the re
cords on his own home farm. These
farm records are acceptable when the
time comes to figure income tax re
ports and should be valuable from
that standpoint in addition to show
ing the farmer where he is making
the mcst money. L,. R. Snipes, Co.

MAY HOLD PICNIC
Everyboay reads Ike Journal Want

From Tuesday's Dali.
Plans are being urged by several of
the members of the American Legion
to hold in the course of the next few
weeks a combined Legion and Le
gion Auxiliary picnic which can be
located at some spot where the mem
bers of the two units can enjoy the
day in the cool and pleasant shade
and if possible "some place beside
the singing brook" as Fred Lugsch
says, will be selected as the site for
the picnic and where the children
can enjoy wading without danger,
where this feature can be made most
appealing. The picnic is still in the
making, but if decided on there are
a number of events that will be held
without a doubt, one being that of
Gettysburgh's last address by W. R.
Holly while Jim Doyle and Ed Fuller
ton have agreed to give several magi
cian acts with Joe Capwell, Bob Reed.
Otto Lutz and C. L. Pitman appear
ing in a quartet number or two. In
the event of the picnic being held,
the ladies will also arrang-e a part of
the program and which will add to
the pleasures of the occasion. Those
who have psture:; or sites that miqht
be used as a picnic ground should
get in touch with W. R. Holly or
Commander Soennichsen so that the
big event can be held before too late
in the summer.
