From Tuesday's Daily-
Today the Bicentennial celebra
tion cf the commemoration of Wash
ington's life has been duly opened,
Deginning with the activities con
ducted by Pfeutfent Hoover at our
national rapitel and the shrine of
Washington, Mt. Vernon and extend
ing all over our great territory,
through schools and organizations of
various names. Not least among these
was the splendid program arranced
by the teachers .of Central grade
schgol, and carried out by 150 of
their 260 seme pupils. The plan was
not exactly carried out in episodes
and yet the scenes depicted were all
centred about the historical and so
cial life of Washington's time.
That the audience might know,
without printed programs, what
event or scene was to be given, a
page Jane Rebal dressed in green
costume and with silver trumpet,
announced each part of the program
with a poster, giving acts and time
action. The children cn the pro
gram took places.cn east bleachers
in the gymnasium of the high school
and remaining pupils and victors sat
to the west. At signal from the prin
cipal, Miss Martens, the entire assem
bly arose as the cnlldren burst forth
in the full song, "America." Then
followed a review of the months of
the year in "Queen cf the Months,"
given by pupils under direction of
Miss Diehm, third grade, and Miss
May, fourth grade teacher. Of course
February, altho scoffed and tased
because the smallest of the months,
was finally - crowned queen because
of the birthdays of Abraham Lin
coln and George Washington, not
forgetting a tap dance for Valentine's
day by three little ladies of the
same grades, Shirley .Mason, Jean
Taylor and Shirley Peterson. At this
point a special dance was given very
artistically by Dorothy Jean Turner,
dressed in costume appropriate to the
occasion.
Now came "Washington" (Bill Mc-
Maken) "and the Thirteen Colonies"
given, by members cr the same class
whose names are not at hand, espec
ially called to decide upon forming
a constitution for the new nation and
planning a flag. Washington said its
colors should be red. for Courage,
white for truth and aiue for loyalty;
the red and white to be in form of
thirteen stripes alternating and the
upper left corner a field of blue upon
which to place thirteen stars. We
were indebted to. 21iss Muenster and
Miss Bly for this able depiction.
Of course the "Making of the
Flag" should follow this and Shir
ley Keck as Miss Betsy Boss, very
ably carried her plan with the three
generals. Philip Rosencrans, Warren
Rice, and Glen Carlburg represent
ing Generals Washington, Morris
and Ross, who came to ask her to
make the first flag of the new nation.
The five pointed star was to be used
instead of six points, and the thirteen
stars arranged in a circle on the field
of blue. This scene was under the
direction of Miss Nolting and Miss
Martens.
No colonial program is complete
without the modest "Minuet" which
was given by tiny tots from first and
second grades under Miss Martens
and Miss Ault. The leaders of this
minuet were Walla Smith end
Frankie Krejci, who seemed mere
babes in school and yet with some
twenty other miniature dancers, very

precisely and in time, presented the
stately dance cf Washington's day
The remaining children of these
grades came racing in to the tune of
"Yankee Doodle," each wearing
Yanke Doodle paper cap with the
feather of blue and red curled paper,
ine audience appreciated the con
trasting dances, knowing how well
it suited the temperament of young
people.
Somewhere we must get the story
of the Indians of our early history
and thi3 was given by pupils of sixth
grade under Miss Nolting's direction
The scene was in the kitchen of the
Mt. Vernon home where the "Negro
mammie," Jean Kncrr, was busy with
baking, and Washington's two step
chidren, Patsy Curtiss, Frances
Cloidt, and Jacky Curtiss, Niel Lan
caster, were begging her to tell them
stcries of the Indians. She told them
"Marse George" would soon be home
to tell tome of his experiences to
them and shortly Washington, Har-
ley Minnier, arrived and reviewed
some events of the French and In
dian colonial wars, while the chil
dren were all excited and full of
questions as children are over thrill
ing stories.
Most fitting as a close came the
F!if Drill by eight beys and tight
giiln of fifth grade under Miss Hiatt's
direction. Everybody enjoys seeing
the march with the Hags: the steady
keeping time to martial music and
the children seemed to enjoy the
doing of the drill. Finally, standing
in groups at attention around the
room, Miss Liberty, Janet Westover,
came to the center of the room, dress
ed in white robe and golden crown
carrying a large flag as (he song
"O Columbia the Gem. of the Ocean"
was sung. Uncle Sam, Donald Uur
chani, took his place beside her dur
ing the singing, and Alfred McFar
laud and Ronald Rebal joined them
as the representatives "of army and
navy forever." To represent the Pil
grim Band from which cur nation
had grewn, Catherine Shellenbarger
and Georgia Blue joined the group
in pilgrim costumes. Led by Miss I
Liberty and Uncle Sam, and attend
ants, the entire company gave an
ether march arcund the room and
stood in outline position while one"
verse cf "America the Beautiful" was
sun?. Miss Liberty then carried the
flag to the center cT the room and
paid tribute to it in well chosen
verse and tne program closed most
fittingly with salute to the flag.
Miss Williams, director of the mu
sic department, added very much to
tho program by playing for all song."

music in such a program. The aud

VISIT AT HOSPITAL
DEDICATE TREE
From Monday's Daily
This mcrning at 10 o'clock on the
lawn at the public library building
was dedicated a tree to the memory
cf Gecrgo Washington, first presi
dent of the United States. The tree
was dedicated by the Plattsmouth
Woman's club as a part of the great
national wide program to honor the
memory of the great leader.
The tree, a beautiful spruce, was
secured frcm Henry Jasper, local
florist and greenhouse owner, who
also with the assistance cf J. II
McMaken, prepared the resting place
for the tree.
A number of the representatives
of the patriotic societies of the city
were present at the library as tne
brief and impressive ceremony was
conducted, the chilly wind serving
to keep many from attendance at
the event.
The invocation was offered by Rev.
Canon Petter, cf the St. Luke's Epis
ccpal church.
Mrs. E. H. Wescott, state regent
of the Daughters of tho American
Revolution, presided at the dedi
cation.
The girls' octette of the high
school, Mis3 Cora Williams, direct
ing, gdvo the very appropriate num
oer, "Trees," the young ladies pre
senting thi3 in a very artistic man
ner.
The planting and dedication of
the tree was conducted by Mrs
James T. Bcgley, president of the
Plattsmouth Woman's club, who in
a few remarks presented the tree to
the library board as a monument to
tho remembrance of George Wash
ington. Mrs. Clayton A. Rcsencrans, state
president of the American Legion
Auxiliary, spoke briefly of the ob
servance of the Washington bicen
tennial which opens on February
22nd and will continue until Thanks
giving. The acceptance of the tree on be
half of the library board was made
by E. H. Wescott, president of the
board and who for the library
pledged the care of the tree and the
appreciation of the spirit that had
prompted its gift.

From Tuesday's Dally
Mr. and Mrs. Herman Smith, of
Nehawka, were in the city for a short
time today, being en route to Om
aha where they spent a short time
with their son, Lawrence, at one of
the hospitals there. The son is at
the hospital recovering from injuries
received in an auto accident near
Irvington, Nebraska, last fall, which
resulted in a broken back. The acci
dent occurred in November and since
that time the young man has been
under the care of specialists and is
gradually improving. He is gaining
strength and it is thought that in
time will be able to be around. He
was paralyzed from the waist down
for several weeks but thi3 has dis
appeared with the exception cf a
small section of the leg and feet but
which is gradually coming back to
normal condition.
Two years without a zero day is
Chicago's record, according to the
federal weather observer. The city
