suddenly got very had and at one
time there were two hundred cars
waiting for passage, many of them
having to he nulled through by the

tice, was put on by the past masters

delightful time was had. A sumptu
ous banquet was served, to which all
did full justice and which was sure
a feed that touched thp spot. The
present officers of the lodge served
as waiters.
Doing Very Nicely
On last Tuesday, Mrs. Gussie Bru
bacher was takn to the hospital in
Omaha, and on Friday underwent an
operation for the removal of a mas
toid which has been troubling this
excellent woman for some time past.

icate one, required the utmost skill
of the- expert surgeon, but since the
conclusion of the ordeal, Mrs. Bru
bacher has been getting along nice
ly. Mr. Brubacher was over to Om-
aha and the hospital to see the wife
on last Sunday and found her pro
gressing very nicely. However, it is
expected to be some time before she
will be able to return home.

the different insurance agents of the
district for the Metropolitan Insur

Builds Fine Machine
Vaclav Mickeluskey, the black
smith, with the assistance of his son.
?hop, have just completed a very fine
taik cutter, covering three rows,

will stand the rough usage which a
machine of this kind must undergo.
The machine is either for a tractor,
or can be used with horse power,
making it a very valuable implement
for farming and especially when the
farming is done on a large scale.

DEBATERS MEET LINCOLN
From Tuesday's Uriiv
Plattsmouth debaters engaged in
their thirteenth argument of the sea
son against Lincoln high school on
the local platform last night. Due to
the fact that arrangements for the
debate were not made until late Mon
day afternoon there was no oppor
tunity to advertise. However a small
audience of students heard the Plat
ter team, Dorothy Brink, Robert
! Livingston and Capt. Clelland Retels-
dorf. match arguments in a closely
argued contest with a trio of obys
representing the capitol city. Platts
mouth advanced the English govern
ment as being preferable to the Amer
ican. While there was no decision.
Coa'-h Hansen of Lincoln was enthus
iastic in his compliments and said
that the local high school had one
of the best teams he had heard this
year. Plattsmouth hopes to close the
season with a victory over Vallery,
Nebraska, tomorrow night at Valley.

Team of P. H. S.
is Entertained
Fine Dinner Parry Held at the Hart
ford Home for Members of
the Local Squad
From "Wednesday s Dally
Coach Rothert and his letter m'n
in basketball enjoyed a real treat
last night when they were enter
tained at a most delicious dinner
served by Mrs. C. E. Hartford and
Mrs Ted Wiles at the home of Mrs.
i Hartford. Since Joe is the retiring
! Captain and Robert a letter winner
j this year, Mrs. Hartford was espec
I ially interested in the team. Like-
wi.se was Mrs. Wiles, who son, Chet,
played regular guard most of the
season. To add to the pleasure of
'the occasion. Mr. Wentworth of the
local Cream of the West Bakery,
presented to the lettermen a huge
cake, appropriately decorated and it
was heartily received by the boys.
Aside from the lettermen . other
guests were Herbert Patterson and
Fred Wehrbein who have served so
ably as cheer leaders, and Principal
Simon and Vice-Principal Patterson.
Every guest present was grateful to
Mrs. Hartford and Mrs. Wiles for the
splendid dinner and hospitality and
will consider it a most memorable
event in the hard season which has
just closed.
The lettermen this year are: Capt.
Hartford. Hadraba. Fitch. McClana
han, Robt. Hartford. Wiles Galloway,
McCrary and Turner. Of these the
first four will be lost by graduation.
Captains have not been selected
in either basketball or football. It
is generally believed that the sys-
tern ot appointing pilots im t-am
game is superior to the traditional
method of electing Captains and
this plan will be used in football and
basketball next year.
FIGHTING THE FIRE MENACE
The stock fire insurance companies
rf fio TTnited States, through the
National Board of Fire Underwriters
a practical, educa
tional program to teach the public
fire prevention.
As a result of consistent effort fire
ViuTarHa have been reduced, better
buildings have been erected and the
public has been saved $349,956,314
through lower insurance rates than
would otherwise have been necessary.
Lower insurance rates inevitably
follow- a better fire loss record; low
er insurance rates inevitably follow
a fire prevention program properly
conducted; lower insurance rates in
evitably follow consistent public ser
vice work of stock fire insurance com
panies. No business has had a fine spirit
of public service than fire insurance,
which has given a consistently high
standard of public service at a con
stantly decreasing price.
