SHOWS SOME IMPROVEMENT
From Wednesday's Dally
The reports from the bedside of
Sheriff Bert Reed this noon were to
the effect that while he is still a
very sick man. that a change for the
better in 'his general condition was
noticed. Mr. Reed had a very wear
ing afternoon Tuesday and which
caused much apprehension but this
morning seemed to show more
strength, very encouraging in every
way to the attending physicians.
The improvement, even slight, has
been most encouraging to the many
who have made inquiries as to the
condition of Mr. Reed from all parts
of the county.
A few of the large Cass county
maps left at the Journal office.

Majestic cafe, had the pleasure of
enjoying a very fine program that

In the musical part of the pro
gram, two very charming vocal solos
were given by Mrs. Gilbert Hirz, one
of Plattsmouth's most talented young
ladies, the offering being received
with the warmest approval. -
The club had a most pleasant sur
prise afforded them when six color

senting a program at the Methodist
church, appeared and gave three vo
cal selections, their presentation be
ing a real musical treat to tne ciuo.

that the worst of the depression per
iod had been past and that the first
of October had shown a definite trend

general conditions. The full recov
ery would require time, Mr. Schneider
stated, but the trend of the time was
unquestionably toward a better con
dition. The members appreciated very

Meat Board, makes his appearance in
Plattsmouth before meetings of re
tail meat dealers, housewives, stu
dents and others. lie will be in this
city on Wednesday, October 2Sth
Wednesday afternoon he will stage
a demonstration at the high school
and Wednesday evening at 8 p. m
at the Public Library. The program
is sponsored jointly by the Board
and the University of Nebraska
which - will be represented by Prof
W. J. Loeffel, meat specialist, as lec
turer.
Mr. Cullen is reputed to be an art
ist at cutting lamb. The methods
he uses are brand new, it is said; not
trick cutting, but practical new ways
of preparing the. different cuts that
will meet the demands of the pres
ent day discriminating public.
Mr. Cullen explains that similar
demonstrations are being conducted
in cities throughout the country as a
feature of a national lamb program
This program is being conducted by
the National Live Stock and Meat
Board for the National Wool Grow
ers Association and the Colorado-Ne
braska Lamb Feeders Association.
The demonstrations in other cities
have won wide approval, he said.
One of the objects cf the new cut
ting methods is to apportion the lamb
into cuts that are not too large in
size and are attractive in appear
ance. This is an age of kitchenettes
and motor htb, .and the small attrac
tive package is in vogue, said Mr.
Cullen.
In discussing the new methods of
cutting Iamb. Cullen called attention
to the fact that one of the big trou
bles has been the lack of an under
sanding of lamb on the part of the
consuming nubile.
Most people think of it as a lux
ury, considering only the chops and
legs," he said. "They don't seem to
appreciate that the breast, shoulder.
and other parts are equally as appe
tizing if cut and served in the right
way. Economy and variety are two
of the advantages of utilizing these
less-demanded cuts."
FUNESAX OF J. P. FALTER
The funeral services of J. P. Fal
ter, long time resident of Cass coun
ty, was held Tuesday afternoon from
the Sattler funeral home with a
large number of the old friends and
associates from the eastern portion
cf Cass county in attendance.
The Rev. O. G. Wichmann, pastor
of the St. Paul's Evangelical church,
gave the sermon, bringing comfort to
the bereaved members of the family
and the sorrowing friends who were
parting with an associate of many
years.
The choir of the St. Luke Epis
copal church gave two of the old
hymns. "Nearer My God to Thee"
and "Jesus Savior Pilot Me." Mrs.
William Kete!?on, playing the accom
paniment. During- the service Frank
A. Cloidt gave as a soJo. "Peace,
Peace. Wonderful Peace," E. H. Wcs
cott serving as the accompanist.
At the close of the service the
body was borne to the Oak Hill ceme
tery where it was laid to the last
rest, the pall bearers were selected
from the old friends and associates,
William Starkjohn. Albert A. Weten
kamp, John Hirz, R. A. Bates. E. P.
Lutz and George Born.
SENIORS HOLD PICNIC
The members of the senior class
of the high school enjoyed a picnic
party Tuesday afternoon after the
closing of the school for the day, the
members of the -class and their spon
sors motoring to the Elmer Tritsch
farm for the event.
The members of the class enjoyed
the time in playing games and a
general good - time until an appro
priate hour when the luncheon that

The attractive spot and the fine
bracing autumn afternoon made a
most delightful setting for the picnic

pleasant memory to the class members.
