Large Number Attend Funeral Ser
vices of Dale Patterson, Vic
tim of Accident.
A few days ago our peaceful and
happy community was shocked by
the news that an accident had oc
curred in which Dale Patterson was
severely and fatally burned. Dale
wa3 rushed to an Omaha hospital
where medical treatment was given
as speedily as possible. At first the
report came back that the injuries
were not so serious as at first
thought But within twenty-four
hours relief came in a form, that
though painful to us, to Dale we
may be assured was not unwelcome.
One of the largest gatherings ever
. assembled gathered at the Congrega
tional church at 2:30 Sunday after-
' noon to perform the last rites, and to
express heartfelt sympathy with the
father, mother, sisters, brothers, rela
tives and friends. Rev. G. It. Birch,
Dale's pastor, had charge of the ser
vice and was assisted by the Girl's
Glee Club of the high school under
the direction of Miss Constance
Cruickshank. They sang three beau
tiful selections, "Savior Like a Shep
herd Lead Us," "The Lord Is My
Shepherd," and "Abide With Me."
The local troop of Boy Scouts, of
which Dale was a member, attended
in a body and added much to the
impressiveness of the services. Scout
Executive Carlton Hyde. Deputy
Commissioner Elmer Conkling, P. K.
Watts, Scoutmaster of Troop No.
Four of Nebraska City, and the two
color bearers. Sterling Gentry and
Charles Watson, all of Nebraska City
gave their assistance to Dan Switzer,
the local Scoutmaster, and his troop.
J. J. Meier, chairman of the troop
committee, was also in attendance.
The floral offering was one of the
largest and most beautiful every con
tributed and was a loving tribute
from the many friends, relatives and
class mates of the deceased.
The pall bearers, who were Dale's
class mates, were Allen Kreiger, John
Day, Donald Sogard. Robert Norton.

Floyd
Flack to
be Principal of
the Blair Schools
Popular and Efficient Teacher Here
Selected for Higher School
Position.
From Saturday's Daiiy
Floyd E. Flack of the high school
faculty here, has been elected as
principal of the high school at Blair,
Nebraska, and will in all probability
accept the position as it means an ad
vancement in his chosen profession
and an increase in nis salary.
Mr. Flack has had charge of the
science department at the high school
and has been a splendid teacher in
this line of the school courses, mak
ing the greatest success in his hand
ling of the department. During theIrs R Ei xorris, Mary Ellen Brown,
illness of Mr. Poynter last year air.
Flack served also as the principal
of the school and his handling of the
school was very gratifying to the
school authorities, he keeping the
school operating in the best of shape.
One of the outstanding services
that Mr. Flack has given to the com
munity in addition to his school
work has ben that which he has
given as the head of the Boy Scout
organizations in the city in the two
years of his residence here. Mr.
Flack has advanced Scouting to a
very high standard of efficiency and
three well organized and active
troops of the Scouts in the city and
who will regret greatly to learn that
their leader is to leave them at the
close of the school year.
Personally Mr. Flack is a genial
and courteous gentleman and will be
a real asset to the Blair school and
one that they will find a splendid
teacher and an upstanding gentleman
in every sense of the term. While
the Plattsmouth school associates and
the citizens regret to see Mr. Flack
leave, he takes with him the best
wishes of the many friends here.

formal declaration from the New

With the question of his candidacy
virtually definitely settled, there still
remains before the governor the prob

Memorial hospital at Omaha are to
the effect that Erman Galloway, who
was injured on Wednesday at the
Ash Grove cement plant at Louisville,
is in very critical condition. The
young man has suffered a fracture of
the skull and his condition has been
very severe since his operation,
which was performed as soon as he
arrived at the hospital. Erman has
had a very severe fracture of the
skull and the operation was a very
delicate one to remove the particles
of the bone that had penetrated to
the brain and it was only due to his
splendid physical condition that he
withstood the ordeal. The patient
is still in a delirious condition and
the attending physicians have been
very much worried over the outcome
of his case.
