Mrs. Rex Peters will teach school in the Lemon district this year, the term there starting next Monday. W. A. White has been nursing one of his fingers, which he had the mis fortune to injure at his work a few days since. Henry Wilkins was feeling quite poorly on last Wednesday and was not able to be down to the shop, but was reported as feeling better later. Fred W. Etheredge will celebrate the passing of his birthday on Wed . nesday of this week, August 31st, at which time he will be 72 years old. (Phillip Boll, of Indianola, Iowa was a visitor for the day last Wed nesday in Greenwood and was look- . ing after some business matters while here. Clayton D. Sanborn has been en joying a visit from his children, Rob ert and Mary Jean, who .likewise have enjoyed their visit here the latter part of last week. Clayton Sanborn was not feeling any too good part of last week and was compelled to take to his bed cn Wednesday, but able to be up and around the following day. The "Guild" will meet Tuesday at the church, with the new officers en tertaining. Anyone having rags suit able for carpet rags, which they are willing to donate to the organization, please bring them to this meeting. A large crowd of people of the vicinity of Cedar Hill, and also from other places, gathered at Cedar Hill, where they enjoyed a very pleasant time, which was a sort of homecom ing, for there was a crowd as large as at an ordinary Fourth of July cele bration, made up of people who had resided there in the past, some as long as forty years ago. Fred W. Ether edge was a visitor and enjoyed the time greatly. Mesdames E. A. Landon, Wayr.e Landon and her son. Wayne, were over to Lincoln on Monday of last week, where they went to see Wayne Landon, Sr., husband and father of the latter two, who is still at the Eryan Memorial hospital, where he is convalescing from an operation last , week for correction of a severe attack ff V)Sffi(,tfilii They foun,d-him get ting along nicely and hoping to be able to return home soon. W. R. Young and Troy L. Davis, two candidates for ofTice. accompan ied the Booster trip arranged to ad vertise the Cass county fair that will be held in Weeping Water on Sept. 13, 14, 15 and 16, and for which great preparations are being made. Better arrange to make a visit to the fair one day at least, as it is your fair and there is no cost of admis sion and there will be as good a time given you as if you went to the state fair and spent many a pretty dollar. The graders who have been getting the road ready for the gravel, which i3 to be placed thereon from Green wood to the county line west, have completed the work and are also completing the road south of town, putting that highway in the best of condition for traffic. The spreading of gravel on the west road will prove a great convenience to many who de sire to trade in Greenwood, and cli mixes more than a year of effort on the part of Greenwood merchants and residents along the route. Got Home Late Wednesday The Greenwood post delegation to the state Legion convention at Nor folk, arrived home during the night Wednesday, after a most enjoyable four days spent in the northeastern Nebraska town. They had an excel lent time, but were a tired bunch of fellows when they arrived home, bringing back with them on the truck, the cannon, which created a sensation at the convention and es pecially in the parade on Tuesday afternoon, which they describe as be ing witnessed by 15,000 people. The streets were lined far out past the sidewalks the entire length of Nor folk avenUe. They had their cannon drawn by a caterpillar tractor and cn the field piece were perched George Trunkenbolz, Earl M. Jardlne, Jessie Dildine, George W. Lunceford and Col. Phil L. Hall. This left only James Bright of the Greenwood dele gation to watch the proceedings. The boys were quartered at one of the cabin camps at Norfolk and found things just to their liking. Has a Good Plan George Bucknell, a confirmed con vention attendant, but who had to miss out on this year's state Legion gathering at Norfolk, has an excel lent plan for the coming year, 1933, when the national convention is held, as it seems sure to be, in Chicago. George's plan is to form an organiza tion of Cass county Legionnaires dur- ing the early summer, including a small band and a comedy team, as well as work up some snappy short plays, start out early, taken the can non with them and stop at the larger size towns along the route, giving a few stunts and withal advertising Cass county, Nebraska. It looks like a good idea. Think it over, boys, and then get busy and put it into execu tion before next year's convention dates roll around. Visited the West E. L. McDonald, the good wife and their son, Bertrand, drove out to Red Cloud on last Saturday and visited with his mother for over night, re turning home Sunday. They had a good trip both ways and saw much country at it3 best, with the corn looking mighty fine in most places, but in a few sections further out state the crops were badly burned. Has Sure Been Busy Arthur Stewart, who has not been able to find much work elsewhere, did not despair and set back to howl, but went to work with a will that has created the way, clearing off a parcel of land and planting same to sweet corn, which he is raising for seed. He has five different varieties, three acres of each, which has made a good deal of work to cultivate and look after. To keep the varieties sep arate, he divided the patches a good distance apart, thus preventing them from mixing. This ground he plant ed to other garden stuff, having al most thirty acres under cultivation, and which has required a good deal of hand work to keep the weeds down and the crops growing their best. Enjoyed a Good Visit Mrs. R. E. Mathews and son, Em ory, were visiting lor a weeK at me home of the mother of Mrs. Mathews. Mrs. Delle Wilson, of Powhatan, Kan sas, and there ooth. sne ana me son enjoyed a splendid time. On last Thursday Boh took the car, driving down to Powhatan and remaining for an over-night visit, out on the ioi lowing day returned, being accompan ied by the wife and son. Filling Station Changes Hands S. D. Porter has purchased the fill ing station which has been owned by Ray Fredricks for some time past, and will add much to the place. He expects to .place crushed rock or gravel about iho, place so that cars can drive in frorftan"y riifectton. He will also provide a fruit booth so he can carry a stock of fruits and will also conduct a cafe which will accommodate the traveling public. He is expecting to turn the place over to his son. Harold, when he shall have gotten it changed as he de sires. Visited C. G. Mayfield Clarence (5. Mayfield, residing in the vicinity of Louisville, has been confined to his bed for many weeks, with heart trouble and complications, and although he has grown a great deal thinner and is in a weakened condition, he enjoys greatly a visit from his many friends whenever they come to see him. On last Monday, Fred W. Etheredge, Albert Buskirk and Rev. W. E. Goings drove over to Louisville, where they visited with their old time friend, but found him very weak that day and not able to enjoy their call. The many friends of Mr. Mayfield trust that he will rally from his sickness and again be able to resume his normal activities. Enjoyable Social Event The members of the Christian church and Bibla school gave a so cial cn their lawn on last Saturday, which was also made a joint affair, as they had the members of the Methodist church and Bible school as their guests. They had a very ap propriate program as well as games for the younger portion of the crowd and served home made ice cream and cake, with fruits. The evening was enlivened by music furnished by the Ashland band. Home from the South A. D. Findley and wife, who have now made four annual tours Includ ing southern Missouri and Arkansas, and spending the heated season in the Ozark mountains, returned after hav ing been away for three weeks. They arrived home on Friday of last week. Master Raymond Howard accompan ied them on this trip and enjoyed it very much. Gravel Donation Received The fund for cemetery graveling received another boost last week, when Mr. Roper sent his check for $10. The assistance of all friends of the Greenwood cemetery in this mat ter is greatly appreciated. Will Hold Eevival Soon The Christian church is to begin a revival meeting at their church on Sunday, September 4th, which will be conducted by the local members of the church. Rev. Goings will preach all the sermons, while a special chor us made up of members of the church and Bible school will furnish the music. The public is cordially in vited to attend. Watch for further announcement concerning sermon topics, etc. Schools Open Monday Everything is in readiness for the opening of school next Monday morn ing. The teachers are all on hand, refreshed from their summer vaca tions, and most of the kiddies seem happy that school Is again to re convene, for even all play grows mo notonous when stretched out over a course of three months. The resignation of Edgar Cole, 7th and Sth grade teacher, coming at a late hour, left the board in somewhat of a dilemma, but in these times there are plenty of good teachers looking for jobs so the position will not be hard to fill. Library Hours In the future exchange of books at the library maintained by the Green wood Woman's club shall be made only on week days, and then between the hours of 2 and 5 o'clock in the afternoon and 7 and 0 o'clock in the evening. Librarians give their time freely and gladly in looking after thi3 work, changing off so as not to make the task burdensome, and it is fine that they can see fit to spare as much time to it as they do.

I have a friend who has that happy faculty of meeting people easily and I've dis covered that one of her "assets" is that she's al ways so well groomed her hair always "just so." Warm summer weather need not deprive you of poise because your hair won't stay "put." A Permanent wave will be your chief aid. The Etta Belle Beauty Shoppe give those famous Gabrieleen permanents that are so satisfactory. After you've had your "permanent," an occasional finger wave at the hands of Miss Etta Nick els will keep your hair looking its bat. She gives those wide, loose, be coming linger waves. SHOW ME ANYONE who is busier than the young lady or young man who is preparing to go away to school next month! They're rushing around gathering their clothes together and sending them to the Fred Lugsch Cleaners so that they'll be all cleaned and pressed ready for whatever activi ties are in store for them. This is the white flannel trouscr season and the young man will want his fresh and clean to take back to school, and the young lady likewise will want her sport clothes and nicest dresses spic and span. The Fred Lugsch Cleaners will do their best to have -your clothes in apple pie order all ready to pack for the trip off to school. AFTER fWATCHING THE BOYS a the Ofe Oil Company hop to it for a little while, it didn't take very much thought to decide where the modern meaning of the word service was found. The minute a car drives up there, they're out and af ter it in a jiffy. They fill the gas tank, look at the water, clean the wind shield and headlights, and even test the tires if you want them to. And they are careful not to spill oil all over the car, too. And on greasing jobs they've never yet been known to miss a single point. If you value your car and like to keep it in tip-top condi tion, you'll find the service at the Ofe Oil Company station the kind you've been looking for! IF YOU HAVE a "weakness" for warm weather refreshments espec ially refreshing liquid refreshments pause at the Mauzy Drug Store Just sit down at one of the booths give your order and proceed to un lax." By the time your order reaches 5'cu, you'll be all ready to enjoy it One thing about the Mauzy Drug Store you'll always find someone there that you know, for everyone goes there when they're looking for elelic ious fountain drinks. You will feel equal to the rest of the day's trials after you've finished your mid- afternoon drink at Mauzy's Drug Store. Mauzy's feature the McKessen line of drugs they re drugs with a reputation. YOUR POPULARITY as a hostess will be enhanced, if toward the end of the evening you say, "Don't go yet I'll go out into the kitchen and forage around in the ice box I think I can scare up a lunch Then, while the Advo cof fee is perking arrange a platter of cold meats and summer eausages and put it on the dining room table, together with fresh ly sliced bread and lots of crackers and cheese and pickles. Have plates, silverware and napkins at one end of the table, and let each serve him self. These late "snacks" are always a success if they're more or less im promptu and you're prepared by having stocked your icebox with the "makings" from A. G. Bach's Meat and Grocery department. JQ r. ' I fiL Ml GOES The most enjoyable time to shop is in the cool of the morning. Try it! Plan your shopping trips these morn ings soon after the stores open. And another idea read my suggestions carefully before you start. I am very sure they will save you steps, which is a big considera tion in hot weather. Sincerely THE FIRST HINT of early fall clothes i3 here. The styles are jut as charming as the summer ones were and I noticed that many of the sleeves are getting all the attention, although necklines are important, too. Tho:-:e of you who prefer one piece dresses will adore the fall ideas and if you have a leaning toward jacket costumes, as I have, you'll be equal ly delighted. And mater ials are still lightweight woolens and rough crepes the kind of clothes that you can wear now and on until early winter. The hats, too, are assuming darker hues and changes in fabrics. Mr. Busch at the Ladies Toggery has some of the early fall models in Bloomfield, LeVine and Mme. Renauld frocks to show you. HAVE YOU SEEN any of the new fall dress materials yet? Wurl's Gen eral Store has some in new woolens in the featherweight fabrics. As usual brown is a leading fall shade and Wurl's have several lovely shades of brown materials. Trimmings are go ing to be important watch particu larly the sleeves and necklines this fall. If you don't believe they're of importance, just notice the style books yourself. Wurl's have the Simplicity patterns and they're as easy as pie to use. Directions are so clear and explicit that you couldn't make a mistake. The fall dress ma terials and Simplicity patterns is a combination that's hard to resist. Personally, I wanted to get a pair of shears and a sewing machine and get busy making a dress! THIS IS just about the height of the canning season when delicious arcmas emit from the kitchen where fruits, pickles, chili sauce, etc., are in the process of being "put up." I Just want to remind you that your can nang paraphernalia is awaiting you at the Eestor & Swatek Co. Hardware Store. They have cookers all sizes in kettles, stone jars and jugs lct3 of fruit jars and jelly glasses colan ders, sieves, funnels, largo spoons and ladles. Everything ycu ii need to make your canning more con venient will be found at the Bestor & Swatek Hardware Store. And, anoth er thing, their prices are as low as you'll find anywhere. "SCHOOL DAYS D. O. G. R. D Boys and girls nowadays are delight ed when it's time to return to school It's so much more interesting than it use-d to be. This business of getting yourself educated, while still hard work, is more like a game. Certainly Mr. Knorr has done his best to add to the interest of school work. The child ren have already discover ed that Knorr's Popular Variety Store's stock of school supplies includes the thing3 they desire most pencils paper, note books. Everything! Yes indeed, the school children and their mothers also, are bound to be pleas ed with the school needs at Knorr's Popular Variety Store. ISN'T IT TRUE that when you're looking for something really modern. you'll go to a modern-looking store to find It? That's why I went straight to the Fetzcr Shoo Company for a pair of fall shoes. It's such an at tractive place. They han die the Enna Jetticks, you know those shoes that ccmc in such a wide range of sizes and widths that even the most difficult of feet are properly fitted for Enna Jettick shoes. The new fall line of Enna Jettick shoes for ladies inay be seen at the Fetzer Shoe Com pany. If you're having trouble with your feet inquire about Dr. Scholl's foot remedies at Fetzer Shoe Com pany's store they have the complete line. ... it 4 f ; i; THE NEXT TIME you have occati to buy i-:surance on your house, Ji ask the insurance agent what !t difference in rates is on homes h eu wan coal and those heated v gas. Then ask him the rates on gas he; homes are so much big He'll tell you that heated homes are a gr er hazard in the opin! of the insurance comp ies. It may be a bit early to starting fires in the furnace, but not a bit too early to be getting bin full ready for winter. Besid by ordering your coal now, you tain better prices and the delivt service is better. GETTING THESE CHILDREN std "ud of to school again is no sini job, I can tell you. Getting shoes them is jut one of the easie.- what with the II. M. Soennkhsen department store featur ing thcPoll Parrot shoes for children. They're the kind that will last in spite of the rough usage the children give them. They also are extremely particular about fitting ehildr shoes at Soennichsen's because realize how important it is for grf ing feet to have proper fitting sh Soennic'isen's also tarry All hosiery it, too, has a reputation long service. ARE YOU TIRED of cooking? a new recipe every day. There is mance in cooking a painter -staritly creates new pictures a s er learns new songs They cai afford to be in a rut. And so, he making should be progressive. Cookery would indeed be unintei ing if the menu was increased by delicious, usual dishes. The Rei White Store is for striving to keep bt you fresh fruits and r-tnliTi-.u nnd nntfnnntl ,tf ertised groceries and canned gp to say nothing of the very lip cuts of meat in order that cooking may not "get in a rut.fr nice, neat grocery store one t you will enjoy shopping and tract with.
