Spring Program
Should Include
Athletic Field
Creation of Field for Use of the City
School Athletics Should Be
Looked After
While tilt; winter season is not
a time when th minds of the pub
lic i.s devoted to outdoor snorts, at
bust in this part of the country,
this is a most appropriate time to
perfect plans to see that when spring
arrives that the athletic field for the
use of the city schools i.s made a
reality.
The apitation for the change of the
tourist parrjk on Washington avenue
into a field for the use of the high
and grade schools for their outdoor
activities which was started at the
opening of school, met with a very
popular response and many were
favorable to starting a general drive
to have donations of time and work
made on the plat in order that It
might be given to the use of the
schools.
The march of time is fast eliminat
ing the open tourist parks in favor
of the cabin type where more accom
modations are available and there is
prospect that this city will join the
other communities in having a park
oT this kind, which will make the
present park available for other
uses.
The park will require some work
i.i making it available for use as a
field for athletics but this could be
easily handled and would give the
school a nice playground and foot
ball and track field that would not
be subjected to the overflows and
annoyances that the use of the base
ball park brings each seeason.
The money expended on the trans
formation of the park into an ath
letic field would make a permanent
lield and not bo wasted as that spent
ij attempting to place the ball park
in shape each season.
The situation of the tourist park
would make it possible to arrange
the seats in the form of an amphi
theater and make a fine addition to
the surroundings of the school build
ings. FARM FOR SALE

WBITES OF OLD TIMES :;
Yesterday - John Little, for , many
years a resident here and who some
twenty years ago was a well known
and popular young man In the life
of the community, was here, coming1
from Chicago, and sought to find a
number of the old time friends. While
here Mr. Little composed the follow
ing poem which will be of, the great
est interest to the older- residents
especially.
Memories.
How pleasant to dream of those
far away times
When life's old illusions were
new.
With comrades and sweethearts
of various climes
Whose faces now pass in re-:
view.
In that old town of Plattsmonth
my boyhood was spent.
While attending that school on
the hill
Where the pledge of true friend
ship 1 learned what it .
meant
Those Memories remain with
me still.
Those boyhood days far too
quickly have sped
When we comrades to manhood
have grown.
What day dreams and fancies In
each youthful head.
Those bright visions where
have they flown?
Each evening we'd gather at old
Sixth & Main
Down there by the Riley Ho
tel. While our songs would be sung
with a merry refrain
There were always some stories
to tell.
On Saturday evenings to take
In a dance
Some times at the old T. J.
HaLl.
Or perhaps at the German Home
gaily to prance
When the Turners were giving
the hall.
I have danced quite a bit fince
I left the old town
From the east to the far gold
den west.
Also looked many over, black
yellow and brown
Hut those dancers at Platts
mouth were best.
McCarthy and Trllety, Guth-
man and Wurl.
Ed Sehulhof and Tom Kepple
too.
How we envied their grace as
they danced with each girl
Onr language would turn the
iar blue.
Now the old gang is scattered
to meet never more
And some from life's troubles
are free.
So while draining glass to those
dear pals of yore
Phase accept these kind thots
from me.

Last night was apparently a field
for the marauders around the filling
stations of the city as the Platts
mouth Motor Co. station, the Ofe
Oil Co. and the O. K. Oarage stalion
all suffered in i greater or less de
gree, from the effects of the invasion.
The robbers apparently were sat
isfied with securing supplies for their

station were forced and here gaso
line, alcohol and lubricating oil,
valued at some $25 was taken, to
gether with a few cans and meas
ures that happened to be in the sta
tion. This was tho station that suf
fered the heaviest loss of the thr
that the robbers visited.
The Ofe Oil Co.. station, a block
west of the Plattsmonth nMfor t'o..
visited bv the robbers who drove over
several signs and also broke the auto-
matic air pump that has been placed
at the south of the stat on for th
accommodation of the traveling pub-
nc, nut here there was no attempt
i inaae to DreaK into tne station or
the oil pumps.
The O. K. Oarage station on Wash
ington avenue was visited and h-re
the robbers broke the locks on the
oil punin? arid made away with ten
gallons of Kasoline.
There is a night man kept at the
O. K. station until midnight and it
