Last Saturday Stirling Harris,

tractor, the chain broke and Stirling
was thrown from the tractor and
as there was no fender over the
wheel he was thrown into the re
volving wheel, with the result that
his leg was crumpled up and both
the ankle and knee dislocated and
had not Donald Harris, who was also
along, ran and turned off the gas.
there was no way to have prevented
the leg being torn from the body.

ate man was taken home where Dr.

after having rendered the aid which
the facilities afforded at the home
hastened the patient to the hospital
in order to have the x-ray picture
taken that the exact condition and
position of the deranged members of
the leg might be known before any
action was taken. It will be some
time before the wound will be well
and coming as it does at this time
of year besides the suffering which
it is causing will interfere in the
farming which Mr. Harris is engaged
in.
What to Serve at Luncheons
One of the problems in preparing
a luncheon is what kind of a tasty
yet dainty salad can be served?
The question has been solved for
members of the Union Extension
club. Their leader, Mrs. Rihn. aided
by Mrs. Atteberry, gave a splendid
demonstration of the art of salad
making. The three salads made were
Golden Glow, Cheese and Chocolate
Sponge. The basis of the salad is
Jell-O. Many different kinds may be
made by adding combinations of
either fruits or vegetables to the
Jell-O.
Salads made daintily are very
pleasing and because of the fruits
and vegetables are very healtful. For
refreshments, the three salads were
served with sandwichs and coffee.
The club met at the home of Mrs.
Lou Comer on Tuesday afternoon,
March. Mrs. Win Crawford was as
sistant hostess.: This lesson closed
the course in "Food and Nutrition."

Rural Service Sunday.
The churches over the country
have inaugerated a move for the
observance of what is known as Rurai
Sunday, and have selected May 5th
as the date, thii object being to en
courage Bible school attendance and
it is the object of the move to get
every body as near as possible tc
attend Bible school on that day. The
Baptist church of Union is behind
the move here and Rev. W. A. Tay
lor is doing all he can to make this
a success in Union.
BOOKED TRACY BROWNS'
0KLAH0MANS FOR APRIL 4
Tracy - Browns' Oklahomans are
coming back to Plattsmouth to play
for another big mid-week dance giv
en by the American Legion, accord
ing to announcement just made by
the committee in charge of booking
arrangements.
Their next appearance here will
be on Thursday, April 4th. This be
ing in the week following Lent, it
is expected they will draw an un
usually large crowd from over the
wide territory that is wont to furnish
patrons at the Legion s mid-week
dances. Last Wednesday night, a
number of couples were here from
down below Syracuse, who had heard
an errouneous announcement in Ne
braska City that the Tracy-Browns'
orchestra would be here then, and
they were keenly disappointed on ar
riving here to find the hall dark and
no dance planned.
The Oklahomans are one of the
best dance bands in the middle west
and proved highly pleasing to the
dancers on their prior visit here a
few weeks ago. Nearly half of their
eleven musicians were here a year and
half ago for the grand opening
ball in the new Legion building, as
members of the original Tracy-Brown
band, which was later built up to a
recording band and is now playing
an extensive engagement in the east.
Among them is "Little Wayne Var
ganson" the popular entertainer.
ATTEMPT TO SAVE BARBER
SHOPS FOR MEN DEFEATED
St. Paul. Minn., March 25. A
valiant attempt to save barber shops
for men was made today In the
Minnesota senate.
Senator L. P. Johnson told the
senate that a man hasn't a chance
n a barber shon anv more, now that
women have invaded its once sacred
precinct in such numbers, and he ask
ed for legislation which would cause
the women to get their hair cut in
hairdressers' estiblishments.
Bue he went to Ignominious de
feat. The senators passed a bill
which would prohibit "the slight
trimming of hair" which hairdress
ers now can do.
If the house accepts the bill the
women must get their locks trimmed
at barber shops.

; Better Regula-
tion Needed at
the City Dump
Nature of Stuff Deposited There
Along the Roard to Ferry
and Pump House Bad
The city dump which for several
jdio ii.is urcii iiiui u iui ii ru east ui me
baseball grounds near the first chan
nel of the river, has been the sub-
ct of considerable complaint from
the residents near that locality and
seems to be growing worse instead of .
better and the nature of the stuff i
unloaded there is such as to be a !
menace to the health as well as the j
comfort of those who reside any- i
wavs near the dump.
The intention of the city was t
have persons having waste, debr! ;
and old junk, drive as far east o:i j
the dump road as possible to leave
ut instead of doing that!
positing their rubbish, !
their refuse, b
the parties de
decayed vegetables, and far worse.
dead animals, have stopped along
the road that is used to reach the
farms and the pump house located
farther norfn and also near the
ferry road. Here can be found a
choice assortment of odor producing
refuse and yesterday there was
placed there a dead hog to add to the
disagreeable and sickening condi
tions. The dead hog was left along the
roadside without any apparent re
gard for the comfort of those who
might have necessity to use the road
and the odor was such that the whole
locality was made aware of the fact
that the dead animal was in their
midst.
The residents along the bottom
land east of the railroad tracks have
been much aroused over the incident
and are taking the matter up with
the county as well as the city auth
orities to secure if possible some re
lief and the elimination of the ha
bit of dumping anything that might
be brought along the roadway that
it is necessary for the residents to
travel. It would seem that the in
ceneration or burying of the dead
animals would be a necessity from
a health measure and they not be
unloaded just where anyone happened
to stop along the rdad.
There is a state law regarding this
offense and the county attorney is"
nvestigation the matter to secure
if possible the conviction of the
partieg that have made the dumping
ground a place to deposit the dead
animals. The place is far from a
place of beauty at the best but with
the animals left exposed there is a
real menace to those who have homes
near there or have occasion to pass
along the roadway
