Although just entering into the important part of their program, the club has not by any means been idle during the summer months. Numerous meetings were held dur ing this time, all of which were very beneficial to the club and its mem bers. The first of these meetings was held at the home of Mrs. A. L. Ver non, where plans for the summer's work and Mothers' Vacation camp were discussed. As the club belongs to the state federation, the meet ing at the Lewiston Community Cen ter for the month of June was de voted to state federation.

Judge Begley said, and the only historical data was that given out later by Alexander Hamil ton, a delegate. Before the constitu tion had been ratified by all of the 13 states, delegates were sent out to educate the people and secure their signatures for ratification. Judge Begley said that the consti tution had stood up at all times and tained a severe fracture of the left leg and which has necessitated his being taken to the Immanuel hos pital at Omaha to have the member cared for.

HASTINGS FOR NEW BRIDGE One of the leading workers in the musical circles of the city is Mrs James T. Begley, chairman of the music department of the Platts mouth Women's club, who is active in the formation of the Choral Un ion in this city. 'This movement is one of the greatest opportunities that we have had for a larger part in musical acr tivities" Mrs. Begley stated to the Journal today. "I wish that we could secure from eighty to one hundred voices here In this organization, as it is really a wonderful chance to develop musical talent along a very high standard and the chance is one that -xwe should take the fullest ad vantage" continuing Mrs. Begley urged that all who could, come and participate in the meetings of the Choral Union which organization is just getting a start here, "you know Plattsmouth has such a wonderful amount of musical talent that we should easily reach the goal of mem bership if only the music lovers would come out," Mrs. Begley stated The Hastings Chamber of Com merce has notified the local Cham- "The Choral Union meets this eve- sible to have this park converted into Several of the residents of the city in urging a better place to stage the school athletics have agreed that on case the . tourist park can be made available that they would donate one day's labor or hire some one to as sist in the work of grading or what ever was necessary, to place the grounds in shape where they could be used as a football field as well as for the use of track sports in the spring. It was this spirit that made this park in the first place, as the American Legion and citizens by their donated labor cleared out sev eral of the large clay hills and banks that stood on this site of a one time brick yard and - made it possible to have a park, there. The need of a place to properly carry on the ath letic activities of the school is now at hand and those who are interested should get in touch with the school authorities and see if it is not poa the event Shirley received a large number of very attractive gifts.

Hams of that city. The bride is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank E. Schlater and a former Plattsmouth girl where the family made their home for a great many years and where the bride was reared to womanhood. The many friends here of this charming and popular young lady will join in the best wishes to this estimable young couple for the greatest of happiness and success in the years to come. be of the greatest value to all part3 of the state as the means of handling the east and west lines of travel and that Hastings is anticipating that it will bring much additional travel through the highways leading to that city. The Hastings Chamber of Com merce will assist in the advertising of the new bridge and the direction of the travel through this important gateway of the states of Iowa and Nebraska. This Interest of the towns both east and west of this point shows that the bridge will be a great addition to the general program of highways as well as making the dis tance between the various points in the west a great deal less. ning and I hope that we can have a very large number out for the meeting and to join in the work which will include the presentation of 'The Messiah in Omaha in Decem ber, urge through the Journal that everyone who enjoys music come into the Choral Union and give Platts mouth a splendid chorus organiza tion. an athletic field for the school and there is no doubt that a large .num- ber would gladly help In -the boost ing of the field by giving their time and energy for a day or two In making the park a realization. : , Better Check Up -'v-J On Your ntmciniraimcBe ventage Before Winter Comes! - Searl S.
