Two questions of importance you might like to ask
before becoming a customer of Black and White:
"Can I save money?" and "Is the service satisfac
tory?" We can answer them both to your entire
satisfaction. Many of our steady customers are
opening Savings accounts with the amount they are
able to save on their weekly provision bills others
have reduced their budgets and are diverting the
extra money into other channels. You can do like
wise. Now, a word about the SERVICE you can
wait on yourself (insuring greatest speed) and al
ways find a smiling, courteous attendant ready to
show you where things are or help you select just
what you want. You can send the children here to
shop with utmost confidence or if you wish, you
can phone your order and we will have it ready
when you come for it. No better service anywhere J

Tow-Wow' of
Local Chamber
of Commerce
Will Be Held on Thursday Evening,
May 31st at the Public Li
brary Auditorium.
This oity is to have a bier "Pow
wow," but irstead of this gathering
being a war council of the warlike
Sioux or other of the tribes that once
roved the Nebraska plains, this gath
ering will merely be the Indians that
belong to the Chamber of Commerce,
all of whom as far as we know are
"good Indians."
i At the annual meeting of the
Chamber of Commerce held in Janu
ary, it was voted by the membership
to have an open forum meeting at
least once a month and while this
was covered by the Happy Hundred
meetings in the winter months, it
. was decided by "Chief Cliff" and
! other of the members of the war
council, to have the first of the even
ing forum meetings held under the
designation of the "Pow-wow."
i This meeting will be held at S
o'clock on Thursday, May 31st and
will be a general meeting at which
the club reports will be given, the
..business of the Chamber of Commerce
transacted and the various enter
prises that the civic organization has
on tap for the next few months will
be discussed.
j This is everybody's meeting and all
who have the civic interest at heart
are urged to get out and have a part
in the Pow-wow" of the Chamber of
Commerce. These meetings will be
held once each month and the public
and all of the members of the Cham
ber of Commerce are urged to attend
and get in touch with what is doing
in the line of civic improvement and
plans and also come ready to put
their shoulders to the wheel and give
one big shove to the move to make
i this the best year in the city's history.

of
j From Weilnesiiav s Daily
j The search that has been in pro
gress since Saturday morning to try
land locate the $1,000 which John
Usozviz, murderer-suicide, claimed to
have concealed about the premises on
East Cut Oil street, is ending with
failuiv to find the amount about the
place and it is thought the man. craz
ed by his killing of his two neighbors
had written the message of the money
being left while in his irresponsible
condition.
The search has been conducted at
the residence by Jack I'.rittain un
der the diiection of Sheriff Belt Reed
and it has been thorough as the house
has been searched almost with a fine
comb and the grounds gone over with
a spade in practically every place
that it would be possible to hide the
money, if any there was. Mr. JJrit
tain has taken several days and
searched the house, cave, woodpiles,
outbuildings and al 1 other places
where it might be possible to cache
the store of money but without any
measure of success. This morning
Sheriff Reed decided that the .search
had gone as far as was possible and
not tear the house completely down
and accordingly the official search for
the funds has been abandoned.
The disposition of the other prop
erty of the dead man, real estate and
a small savings account in Omaha, as
well as the S22.75 left at his home
at the time of death have not as yet
been disposed of and the ultimate
outcome of this property will depend
on what action if any that the rela
tives in Europe might make. The
dying statement of Mr. Usozviz indi
cated a desire to leave his money and
property to Mr. Emberry and which
mav be accepted in court as a legal
will.

ed by the young men and women of

formed into a place of rarest beauty
by the juniors, the colors of purple
and gold, the senior colors, being
woven into the decorative plan or
the hall.
The center section of the hall was
enclosed as the banquet hall by the
lattice work of gold and blue, the
pillars supporting the uoof solid
blocks of blue and over the whole the
solid ceiling of blue, cleverly arrang
ed and making the whole of the ban
quet room one of the greatest charm.
Entrance ways were gracefully ar
ranged with arched designs and
drapes in the blue and gold.
The orchestra stage also had a very
artistic canopy of the blue and gold
and with a large arched centerpiece
that added to the charm of the whole
of the decorative scheme.
To the south of the improvised
banquet hall there was arranged the
rest room where soft and comfortable
chairs, iloor lamps and other home
comforts added to the pleasure and
comfort of the guests.
The tables in themselvs works of
art, with, gold candles and the floral
decorations of the yellow roses and
sweet peas to further emphasize the
color scheme.
Tiny candy corsages cleverly ar
ranged by the ladies of the American
Legion Auxiliary were at each of the
gills' places while the boys received
candy boutonniere as their favors of
the banquet.
The progri.ms and place cards were
the work of the members of the jun
ior class, the programs being marked
by a cover of the blue and gold.
