Gardner, wno lias been the publisher of the Beacon at Eagle in the west part of the county, is re tiring from the newspaper business in this county and will remove to the western part of the state. The sale of the good will, rights and subscription lists of the paper has been made to Charles V. Seeley, publisher of the Weeping Water Re publican, who also has a chain of papers published at Weeping Water for other towns of the county. Mr. Gardner will retain the print ing equipment of the Beacon and ex1 pects to have it moved to Lewellen, Nebraska, in the western part of the state, where he is to establish a new paper in that locality. The veteran editor has during hia career as editor and publisher at Eagle, been a very active figure in the life of that community and waa awarded the cup by the state press association in 1926 for his commun ity service in securing a public li brary for Eagle. Mr. Gardner has been an outstanding worker in the cause of the republican party and served as chairman of the republican congressional committee In the cam paign of R. H. Thorpe, and has been very active in the county political circles. He has given his forciful personality to his editorial work and his part in the newspaper field will be missed in the future.

Under the labors of Rev. Brauchle he was converted and united with the Evangelical church of which he was a faithful member till the end. On Dec. 23, 1914, he was united in marriage with Mis3 Louisa Winkler. To this union two daughters were born. He was a loving and kind husband and father. He also loved his home and always had the wel fare of other in his heart and mind. He is survived by his loving wife, two daughters, Golda V., and Erma L. Lunz. Three brothers.

MUCH NEED FOR FUNDS Major George Grissom, of the Sam ariton army, states to the Journal that the Christmas collections made by him were some $15 and this amount has been spent in the various lines of work of the Samaritan army in the city and while not as large as hoped for has done a great deal of good. Major Grissom has had the accounts of the Christmas fund audited and checked over by outside parties to show the expenditures made in the various lines of his work. Journal Want-Ads get results. W. J. Seydlitz, purchaser of Parmele Theatre Outlines Policies He Expects to Pursue Here W. J. Seydlitz. of Lincoln, who Is in the city today to arrange the de tails of taking over ownership and management of the Parmele theatre on Sunday, has given out for publica tion the following statement of the policies he expects to pursue in the conduct of his newest picture house. As heretofore stated. Mr. Seydlitz, who is a former' Plattsmouth man, was for 6ome time In charge of the Capitol theatre, at Lincoln, one of the finest moving picture houses in the capital city. Following is his statement: "I wish to announce to the people of Plattsmouth and vicinity that I have taken over the interests of Messrs. Cloidt and Moore in the Par mele theatre, effective December 30, 192S, and thereafter this theatre will be managed by lne personally. I ex pect to put into effect at the Parmele the same kind of policy I had in the Capitol theatre i'of Lincoln, which made it one of Lincoln's finest and most successful theatres. "I believe Plattsmouth is large enough to have sound pictures In its theatre, which I hope to put in my policy, providing I can put this house over as it should be. I believe the people are entitled to something big ger than just pictures as the Par mele is ideal in its height of ceiling and architecture of building for the sound pictures that are now taking the country by storm. All pictures will eventually be available for sound and nearly all the theatres having sufficient seating capacity to afford it, will be equipped with some kind of sound device. "I might also mention that I will be at the theatre at all times and mothers need have no fear in letting their little girls and boys come when ever they wish, as there will posi tively be no loafing allowed around this theatre. Only the cleanest kind of pictures will be shown here and children will receive my personal care. "I'will have a matinee every Sun day at 2:30, beginning December 30th. "I understand there is a 'dish night at this theatre, which I do not quite understand but will leave same as it is for the present and if I decide to discontinue same I will give every body a chance to fill their set of dishes. I also understand there is a family night. This I think is fine and will leave name as it is. "I tin n nt Irnnw If thrf a r anv more 'freak' nights or not, but will broadcast seeder; one new P & O say I will handle them to the best of two-row cultivator; one Good Enough my ability and in conclusion will say .sulky Plow: two walking cultivators; that I wish you all a Happy New one hay rake; two sets work harness; Year and hope to see some of my old one elevator jack; one worm gear friends and make a lot of new ones, PumP Jack one new bonder wind as I was born here and lived in miU- one water tank one ,Rock Is" Plattsmouth myself; have two sisters land -gas engine; twenty rods woven here now and two brothers here on hS wire: one hundred and ninety th farm- also ,avo mV narnfa here rods barbed wire; fourteen rods of so I do not feel like a stranger.
