The game opened with the natters seemingly having easy sailing with the Nemaha beys bat ere the final whistle sounded the two teams found themselves locked in a deadlock from which neither team was able to gath er the force or punch to break the tie. In the opening portion cf the game there was several good xasses made pood by the Platters from Wescott to Perry and also to Gansemer that advanced the ball into the enemy ter ritory and where the locals carried the ball over for the coveted first score of the game. ,.;. the blue and hite advanced down the field to striking distance of the Auburn roal.

New Paving Great Improve ment to City Where New Paving Has Been Placed It Adds Much to the Conven ience of the Residents. From Saturday s !'a.i! The completion cf all of the paving in the 1927 program in this city has given an addition to the large amount of pavement in the city and has added a great deal to the lo calities where it has been placed and where it will be a distinct advantage to the sections of the city that se cured this improvement. The hist part of the paving pro gram carried out was that on South Hih street and on Rock and which i.s now btiiig used for travel by the general public and with the prospect of winter and bad roads the residents of that part of the city who have lau much trouble with the murry l i'l ic-ads can look forward with pleasure to the fact that they will h;. ie a load that they can travel at all seasons of the year. The paving on the hilis also saves a great deal to the city in tne cost f f rfad maintaining and als.i tlim iit.iting the necessity after each rain of having a force cf men out to scrape lip the mud that, flows down from the hills onto the paved streets and which costs the city from $15 to $20 each time to have cleaned off. Another of the pieces of paving that was badly needed for several years was that leading from Main street to the Holy Rosary church, a block south on Pearl street and which in bad weather was almost im possible to travel for these wishing to drive to church and for funeral parties to reach the church. Tins condition has been remedied with the new pavement there and which as sures a comfortable and good road way. These pieces of paving were initiat ed on the petition of the residents of the various districts and now that the work is completed it ceitainly i.i one that everyone in the city will appreciate as a convenience in travel and helping cut down the espouse of road maintaining that is a constant drain and which has to be gone over r.fter each rain storm as the hill streets wash very badly and makes necessary the expenditure of much money that is really thrown away as the work has to be done over re peatedly.

Cream of West Bakery InstalL L3 New Machinery Large Mixing' Machine Installed to Add to the Output cf Large Local Raking Concern Frorr Saturday's Irlly It is fitting that our citizens should be kept informed ef tL.e improve ments taking place in our little city. A visit to the Cream of the West Bakery a few days ago disclosed the fact that Mr. Went worth recently purchased the latest model of dough mixer, which has just arrived. This i3 a German invention, but is manufactured in Switzerland. It is called the "Artol'ex" dough mixing and kneading machine, has a maxi mum dough capacity of 1ST. pounds and is equipped with a one and one half h. p. 220 volt ball bearing mo tor. Ten thousand of these machines have been manufactured, but they are just being introduced into this coun try. So far as we are informed, there is only one in Illinois, one in Nebraska and this machine of Mr. Wentworth's is the fir.u in this part of the country. This is a fine looking machine and a decided improvement over the (.11 stj'le machines in common use. A little of what is said of it and claim ed for it follows: The patent "A-to-fex" mixer assures the most renijfk able high speed mixing results, giv ing maximum absorption and the most gluten development, in fait, re sults which cannot be secure-d in th commonly known revolving blade type mixer. Bakers in the old country have been thoroughly convinced that the only efficient machine producing a dough of perfect texture, uniform throughout while aereating and de veloping the gluten and creating the much sought absorption, is one that has an action which lifts, aereates and stretches the dough without sub jecting it to the eevere punishment In revolving blade type machines. This machine has arms that lift, come together and recede. rolMrg "nd stretching the dough just as the most painstaking baker would do by hand. It does the same work in six minutes that the old style machine requires 30 minutes to do. and with one-half the power. Mr. Wentworth is to be concratu lated for his progressiveness in adopt ing this new human-like machine, thus giving his patrons the, best pos sible service in manufacturing his products.
