Death of Former
Resident of Cass
County in West
George McNurlin, for Many Years
Living Here, Dies in Broad
water, Nebraska.
From Thursday's Dally
The death of George McNurlin, for
many years a well known resident
of this county occurred on Sunday at
the family home, at Broadwater in
the west part of the state and the
funeral services of the deceased held
there on Tuesday afternoon.
Mr. McNurlin was aged seventy
three years at the time of his death
and has spent the greater part of his
.lifetime here in Nebraska and Cass
county where he came as a very
young man from his native state of
Illinois and settled in this county.
He was for a time a resident of this
city and also engaged in farming in
Mt. Pleasant precinct. While living
in Mt. Pieasant Mr. McNurlin was
married to- Miss Helen Archer, the
eldest daughter of the late Judge
Michael Archer, who with one son,
Orin, survives his passing.
The family after leaving the farm
in Mt. Pleasant moved to Greenwood
where they located for a number of
years and later moved to Havelock
where Mr. McNurlin was engaged in
working in the shops there. Twenty
years ago they moved to the west
part of the state where Mr. McNurlin
filed on a homestead under the Kin
kead act and became one of the early
residents of that section of Nebraska,
six years ago they moving to Broad
water where they have since made
their home.
Mr. McNurlin in addition to the
wife and son, Orin. leaves two sis
ters, Mrs. Rose Axmaker knd Mrs.
Myra Howard, and one brother. Gust
McNurlin all of Greenwood. He was
also a cousin of John McNurlin of
thi3 city and Frank McNurlin of near
Mt. Pleasant.
MOONLIGHT AND GOLF
Prom Friday's Dally
We have read about "Moonlight
and Roses" but a new combination
has been worked out with the mel
low light of the moon and that is
golfing by the lunar light.
Last night. Jack Redmond, who
has a golf act on at the Orpheum in
Omaha, staged a moonlight battle
with Faye Porter, state champion at
the Happy Hollow club course in
Omaha and which brought forth a
large number of the golf fans to see
the battle, something new in the
golf circles of the state and as soon
as the Orpheum was closed for the
night the participants in thematch
hurried to the Kappy Hollow club
where the battle was staged. Flare3
and searchlights added to the in
terest of the match and in the nine
hole game the experts made their way
over the course in fine shape.
The chief interest in the game
was the fact however, that Clate j
Rosencrans and A. O. Moore, two of
Plattsmouth's most favorite follow
ers of the canny Scot game were on
hand to see the battle. The points
gathered by the local people will
doubtless be used in forming a sim
ilar event in this city if the mem
bers can appear on the course suf
ficiently lit up for the event.
Mr. Moore states that the game
was one of great interest and the
players shot a fine game despite
the handicap that the uncertain arti
ficial light gave them. The reporter
called at the place of business of Mr.
Rofencrans this morning at 10
o'clock but he was not present and
the best reports that could be gained
was that he was engaged in perfect
ing the plans for a moonlight golf
tournament here. t
It is our opinion however, that
good moonlight is too valuable to
waste on a common golf game when
there is always something doing
"Under the Moon."

DEATH OF JAMES LEE
Tronr Saturday's Via II v
The death of James Lee,
known resident of this section
well
for a
great many years and who has in
the past fifteen years been living at
Pacific Junction, occurred this morn
ing a S o'clock at the hospital in
Omaha where Mr. Lee was taken
some time ago suffering from a very
acute attack of appendicitis.
Mr. Lee was hurried to the hos
pital and operated upon but was un
able to rally from the effects of the
ordeal and the poison that had got
teh into his system.
Mrs. Lee, the wife of the deceased
died a short time ago at the home in
Pacific Junction and since that time
Mr. Lee has made his home with the
children.
The deceased was the father of
Mrs. Joseph Bulin formerly of this
city and a brother-in-law of William
Mindenhall.
Traffic rail interests ask the presi
dent to aid in giving the commerce
commission more power and freedom
in rail consolidations. It is supposed
the president will add this to other
requests made him.

QUIET CONDUCTIVE
TO EFFICIENCY
Five Hundred Attend Morning Ses
sion at Agricultural College
and Listen to Talks.
Nearly 500 hog breeders and feed
ers had gathered at the college of
agriculture by noon for the annual
feeders day to take part in "rooting"
for the hogs Friday and for the Uni
versity of Nebraska football game on
Saturday. At the beginning of the
morning program at 10 o'clock, some
250 people were on hand at the judg
ing pavilion, taking up every avail
able space. Due to the anticipated
large attendance at the afternoon
meetings the program was held at
the student activities building.
K. C. Fonts, county agent of Sew
ard county, and W. W. Derrick joint
ly told the visitor about brood sow
selection contests and demonstration
prizes. II. C. Filley, chairman of the
rural economics department, gave the
hog men a vivid" sketch of the hog
situation. His topic was: "The Com
ing Year and the Hog Man." Using
charts to illustrate many of h's
points Professor Filley declared that
fluctuation in hog prices runs in
cycles of four years ancl that when
hogs are high in price, corn is usual
ly low.
Russell Kendall, a graduate, row
connected with the Packers National
bank of Omaha, told about his experi
ences in the field with the promotion
and organization of pig clubs. He
cited instances where young boys had
entered the work and realized :i:','
from their efforts. One little eleven-year-old
Sarpy county boy, Mr. Ken
dall related, made a clear profit cf
over $250 from an original invest
ment of $100 for a proved purebred
Poland China sow. He raised a spring
and fall litter from the sow, paid $78
for the feed and $3.50 per month in
terest on the money with which he
bought the sow
Scientists say that the noises of a
large city cost millions of dollars a
year in impared efficiency of workers.
Many of the older, more excruciat
ing noises of civilization are being
climated. Electric and gas welding is
superseding the pneumatic riveter.
Electric motors replace the noisy en
gine. Asphaltic pavements and rubber
tired vehicles give back only a frac
tion of the clatter of the old steel tires
on granite block paving.
But the city id still fearfully noisy.
Every unnecessary noise saps nerves
and destroy:; health and working effi
ciency. With ten people living where
one lived two decade:-? ago, the sum
total of noises is larger today than it
wa3 in the earlier days, hence the
greater necessity for noise reduction.
To escape noise ij one reason for
growth in the tendency to take in
dustry to smaller towns, where quiet,
and better air, and more greenery
and more room and more individual
ity are possible. All these are deflnit,
bankable assets for any industry.
Electricity, gas and sound-muffling
asphalt on streets are three of the
most potent noise-reducers, and work
as ideally under rural conditions as
in the city; with them industry in the
smaller community can be almost
noiselt-ss and nerveless and 100 per
tent eflicent.
