PLATTSMOUTH SEMI -WEEKLY JOTTENAI
PAGE-FIVE
LFTER THE HOUSEWIFE has spent
Cays In planning; the home-cooked
. Thanksgiving1 dinner, only to find
riat in less than) an hour it has been
levoured and that she's faced with
ihe task of washing: stacks of dishes,
pots and pans it's not
unbelievable that the
thought occurs to her -
"Well, what have I to be
thankful for today but a
lot of work?" Why not
plan to have Thanksgiv
ing dinner at Brown's Cafe. Thanks
giving day there this year is going to
ke a really festive occasion. There is
iniple room, with the hotel dining
loom available as well as the counter
$ nd tables in the restaurant to take
iare cf all comers and Brown invites
is friends and patrons to eat "tur
cy" dinner with him. The menu
. ill include all the good old Thanks
giving specials cooked and served
Ins ycu like them without the attend
ant planning, preparation and drud
gery of washing the dishes after
awards. Call 172 now and ask for in
formation about Thanksgiving dinner
ind the menu at Brown's Cafe.
"EVEN IF WE didn't have a calen
dar," says W. A. Swatek, of Bestor &
jSwatek, "we could tell what season
Jit was just by the things we sell.
Fcr instance, now we know Thanks
giving is near because we're having
many inquiries about roasters and
we're selling lots of 'em."
If your old roaster i3 just
about to fall apart, better
invest in one of these self
basting gTaniteware or
aluminum roasters at the
Eestor & Swatek hard
ware store You don't want to take
chances on losing any of that delic
ious gravy from the Thanksgiving
bird! They also have other cooking
utensils in aluminum and granite
ware, including the colored granite
ware so popular just now. Some new
pots and pans will be of great help
and save you lots of work when pre
paring the Thanksgiving feast.
The prices at Bestor & Swatek's
are the lowest of any time in the
many years these two men have been
in business together.
I HAD A SMALL, prescription to be
filled the other day, and I took it to
the Mauzy Drug Store. While I
was waiting to have it filled, I fell
into conversation with
Mr. Jim Mauzy. He says
that when he started in
the drug and prescription
business 20 years ago, he
solemnly promised him-
self that he'd never sub
stitute ingredients in filling a pre
scription without the permission of
the prescribing physician. That's the
kind of business that builds confi
c'erice! Get your prescriptions filled
at the Mauzy Drug Store. One finds
f'.ere only the very finest of pharma
ceutical supplies.
And by the way, Mauzy's fountain
i3 operated the year 'round. There's
,no reason for passing up the enjoy
ment of a fine soda or sundae during
tl?e winter season with such splendid
fountain service available as provid
ed at Mauzy's.
THE VERY NEWEST of shoes to go
with your Thanksgiving frock await
your inspection at the Fetzer Shoe
Company. They have some beauties
in suede patterns, and for
winter wear there's noth
ing quite so dressy and
good - locking as suede i
footwear. The Fetzer Shoe
Company have a fine stock . tl
of Enna Jettick shoes
those shoes that are made in sizes
and widths to fit every type of foot.
They're shoes with style, too. Better
go to Fetzer's the next time you're
passing and let them fit you with a
pair of galoshes. Have you noticed
how inconspicuous the styles in ga
loshes are this year? They're made
along lines that are trim and neat
looking and you'll fiad those at
Fetzer's to be unusually well-fitting.
GOES
November, the month of Thanksgiving ! And that festive
less than a week off. The thanksgiving spirit should
prevail this month for more reasons than one. I'm thank
ful for all the blessings I've had, that's sure they're
enough to fill this entire column. And you shoppers will
be thankful for the bargains and items I've found this
month. Sincerely
BETTER PIIOXE 20 right now and
make an appointment for that beauty
work you want done for the Thanks
giving festivities. The Etta Belle
Beauty Shcppe is rapidly
filling their appointment
book for the coming few
days just preceding the
"turkey day" festivities,
when ycu will naturally
want to look your best.
You'll want a shampoo and a wave,
if nothing more, but you'll enjoy the
day and look a hundred per cent bet
ter if you have a thorough facial and
a manicure, too. Remember the tele
phone number is 20. Call now for
your appointments then you'll be
sure not to be disappointed during
the Thanksgiving rush for beauty
work. Ask Miss Nickles about the
line of "Secret" cosmetics, if you're
.not already familiar with this excel
lent line of beauty preparations. She
recommends them highly.
YOU NEED NOT be fearful of hav
ing ycur nicest party dress cleaned
at the Fred Lugsch Cleaners. They
know how to clean all fabrics and
you can trust them to return your
frock as clean and as well pressed as
when you first wore it.
If you're .attending" a
Thanksgivin party or a
dance, better have your
clothes cleaned now so
that they'll be all ready
when that time arrives.
Fred Lugsch tell3 me that they've
been pretty busy getting Plattsmouth
folks' clothes cleaned and pressed in
anticipation of the Thanksgiving fes
tivities next Thursday, but they can
give prompt service right up to the
last minute. Send your clothes to
Fred Lugsch Cleaners now so they
may be returned to you in plenty of
time before the season of gaity be
gins. They also have equipment for
cleaning and blocking hat3 in the
most up-to-date manner.
YCU WON'T HAVE any trouble with
your Thanksgiving menu if you visit
the Red and White Grocery Store.
They have a wonderful list of Thanks
giving delicacies bearing the Red &
White label all kinds of
canned foods, plum pud
ding, pumpkin, sugared
dates and figs; pickles
and preserves, etc. The
Red and White Grocery
also has cranberries, fine
squashes, sweet potatoes and all tra
ditional Thanksgiving foods. And to
finish up with or to go with the
pumpkin pie, delicious cheeses and
nut English walnuts, pecans and
Brazils. To insure the success of
your Thanksgiving dinner be sure to
serve Red and White coffee its de
licious sealed-in-the-can flavor will
make a hit with your guests and in
stead of just-ordinary coffee you will
be serving a beverage that will in
cite the admiration of all.
The Red and White market also
offers a complete line of meats and
is taking orders for fowls. Whatever
you may want, you can be pretty sure
of getting it at thi3 store and with
it free delivery of your order.
ARE THEY MAKING preparations
for Thanksgiving dinners at Mullen
& Sons' grocery store and meat mar
ket? Believe me, they are! If there
is a single season on the American
calendar that absolutely demands a
meat market, it's the Thanksgiving
season. And believe me (again) Mul
len's are living up to their
reputation , for prepared
ness for all occasions.
They're going to have
turkeys, duck3 and chick
ens for Thanksgiving,
and it might be wise for
you to stop in there now and leave
ycur order for whatever kind of
fowl you're going to serve next
Thursday. Then you'll be sure to
have a choice selection. But what
ever you choose will bo satisfactory,
because Mullen & Sens' grocery and
meat market has a marvelous line of
fresh meats at all times.
"THIS TABLECLOTH, I bought at
Soennichsea's," explained a lady who
is planning to entertain a "houseful"
of guest3 for Thanksgiving dinner.
"I just had to buy an ex
tra long cloth here are
the napkins! Really, this
is the time to replenish
one's household linens if
quality and low prices
are to be considered."
And I agree with the lady's advice
this IS the time to fill-in the stock
of household linens with needed
pieces. H. M. Soennichsen's depart
ment store has a wonderful shewing
of table linens just now the designs
are attractive and the prices amaz
ingly low for such qualities. But
table linens are not the only things
that are necessary to make a Thanks
giving dinner successful! How about
your own arcsses: remaps a new
cellar and cuff set of neckwear of
seme kind would dress up that frock
you're planning to wear so that it
would appear as this year's style
Soennichsen's have lovely neckwear.
PICTURE your Thanksgiving table
set with some of the lovely china
v.are patterns at Knorr's Popular
Variety Store! The feast will take on
a mere gay and festive note with this
charming china cn the table. After
all, the service at one's table has a
lot to do with the pleasure of the
meal ?tself dishes of
more than one pattern
lend a note of discord
that is apparent. Knorr's
Popular Variety Store ha3
a really nice line of china
and glassware and some
of the stock was purchased espec
ially for Thanksgiving day needs.
Should you need additional kitchen
utensils, Knorr's Popular Variety
Store has all kinds of pots and pans
in bright colored enamelware as well
as aluminum.
THEY TOLD ME the other day at
the Hartford Coal office of a local
lady who last winter came to them
in desperation her roomers were all
going to leave because it seemed im
possible to keep the house
comfortably warm. Mr.
Hartford advised her to
use McAllister coal in her
furnace and she wouldn't
be troubled again. And I
guess it worked, because
she is having her winter's supply of
McAllister put in now. The Hartford
coal office sells coal at all prices,
based on the b. t. u. heat content
so that you get just what you pay
for. But to insure real satisfaction,
they advise their better grades, of
which there is none on the market
superior to McAllister. Coal is the
safe medium for heating your home
or other buildings. Just inquire of
any insurance man concerning the
difference in rates on home3 that are
heated by coal and those heated with
other type of fuel!
"THE AMOUNT of butter is the big
gest item on my weekly grocery bill,"
said a woman who was talking on the
subject of good cooking. "I use it,"
she continued, "in most everything
in fact, I'm of the opinion that any
thing that's cocked tastes better with
the addition of butter. All
fried things (except deep
frying) are nicer if cook
ed in butter cakes and
cookies are much tastier,
and of course, bits of but
ter rolled Into the pie
crust will make It flakier and more
crispy. At our house, we even stir a
piece of butter into the hot apple
sauce." You folks in Plattsmouth
are fortunate in being able to obtain
that delicious Casco creamery butter.
Always specify "Casco creamery but
ter" when ordering butter from the
A. G. Bach general store. It's made
right here at home from the cream
provided by Cass county farmers and
you'll find it always of the same de
licious uniformity.
A
"ROMANCE FASHIONS" is the way
one fashion authority describes the
new styles in women's clothes. And
the formal and dinner frocks espec
ially have an historical appearance
the silhouettes all having
that top-heavy look due
to the columinous sleeves,
and with slim, straight
long skirts. They are in
deed charming! Judging
from the display of these
n
"party dresses" at the Ladies Tog
gery and the interest manifested in
them, I'm inclined to think that in
vitations are out for some exception
ally swanky parties. If you're plan
ning ta attend a Thanksgiving dance
or party, I know that you'll want to
inspect these dresses in person. Let
me assure you that they're "spot
light" styles which means they're
the latest.
Spokesmen for
Marching Clan
Visit Roosevelt
Make Demands on Governor Eoose
velt in Behalf of Men Hiking
Through the State.
Albany. President-elect Roosevelt
talked with three representatives of
"hunger marchers" who demanded
he urge President Hoover to with
draw his request to governors to dis
courage a march on Washington
when congress meets next month.
The three men who sat with the New
York governor in his study at the
executive mansion for more than an
hour also called upon him to summon
the legislature to appropriate 100
million dollars to feed the jobless,
provido transportation for the Wash
ington invasion and guarantee the
demonstrators immunity from "police
terroi-3" in crossin New York.
"Every person," said Mr. Roose
velt, "lias a perfect right to travel,
and naturally the governor hopes the
police thruout New York will exer
cise humane methods and give fair
treatment."
"Yes." ironically, replied Milton
Stone of New York, one of the dele
gates, "wo got fair treatment here
on March 2, two years ago."
"But you were guilty of a very
serious offense against the state," the
governor cut in. ."You attempted to
break up a session of the legisla
ture and nothing happened until you
tried."
State police on that occasion eject
ed a delegation of communists who
demanded unemployment appropria
tion. When the hecklers resisted re
moval a general melee developed and
several persons were injured.
Mr. Roosevelt explained to the
three men, Stone, Sam Weissman,
head of the unemployed council of
New York city and Richard Sulli
van, that he was governor, "but I
certainly have no federal authority,"
and could not ask Mr. Hoover "to re
scind his request to governors."

BURDOCK ITEHS
Beverly Miller and wife, of Chi
cago, are visiting at the L. Neitzel
home.
Dr. W. J. Snyder, of Louisville,
was in Murdock again on last Thurs
day, and was very busy at the bar
ber shop and i3 well pleased with the
good business which is coming his
way in the dental line.
Business called Bryan McDonald to
Lincoln ,on last Thursday, and while
there he secured a load of goods for
the store here. Mrs. McDonald look
ed after the business while he was
away.
On last Saturday evening, Novem
ber 20th, Rev. G. A. Zoch, pastor of
Trinity Lutheran church of Murdock,
preached at a mission rally in one
of the largest Lutheran churches in
Lincoln.
Albert Zeirot and William Lau
completed the picking of their corn
last week and are greatly pleased
that they have gotten the corn out
before the coming of colder weather
and snow.
Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Friend of near
Alvo were visiting in Murdock last
Thursday, spending the afternoon
here at the home of their daughter,
Mrs. Eddie Craig, where all enjoyed
a good time.
Mr. and Mrs. L. Neitzel drove to
Ilavelock last Sunday afternoon to
celebrate Mr. Neitzel's birthday.
While there, they took in the flower
show at Frey & Frey's, which was a
worthwhile trip to see.
A. J. Tool and wife, accompanied
by their son, Douglass, as driver,
went to Omaha last Sunday, where
they were guests at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. George Work and fam
ily, Mrs. Work being formerly Miss
Catherine Tool. All enjoyed the visit
very much.
Last week Arthur Besack and wife,
of Omaha, were here for a visit at
the McDonald and Tool homes, these
ladies being sisters of Mrs. Besack.
After a pleasant two-day visit, they
returned to their home, being accom
panied by Mrs. McDonald, who visit
ed there for the remainder of the
week.
Grover C. Rhoden, of Manley, was
a visitor in Murdock last Thursday,
looking after his regular business of
selling Rawleighs products and was
meeting his many friends. Grover
said he was expecting to go over to
Plattsmouth Saturday where the tur
keys were to be turned loose, going
to the party who caught them. Al
though Grover did not definitely say
he was going to try for one, it look
ed that way to us. The family also
went along and visited with friends
in the county seat.
Sure is Happy
Mr. Helmers, of the Bank of Mur
dock, who is always very cheerful
and agreeable, semeed a little more
pleasant during the latter portion of
last week, so inquiries were insti
tuted which revealed the fact that
he had been blessed by becoming a
grandfather. The little granddaugh
ter, who Is a daughter of Mr. Hel
mers' daughter, has brought much
joy to the grandfather, whose coun
tenance fairly radiated the elation
he felt over this new arrival. All are
getting along nicely, including Mr.
Helmers.
Thanksgiving Supplies
We have them! Fresh Oysters,
Cranberries, large Jumbo Celery, 15c

that goes to make a good dinner.
Also large supplies of the best fresh
and cured meats.

Gas Disappeared Over Night
There has been gas missing from
the bulk tank3 of the Deep Rock
Gasoline company, which caused sus
picion of thievery, and one of the of
ficials of the company was called by
the local manager, A. H. Ward. A
measurement of the tanks was made
at night and again the following
morning before any gas had been
sold therefrom, and the experiment
revealed some seven gallons less than
the night before. Two things only
can account for the lost gas, either
that some one has helped themselves
during the night or there i3 a leak
age that has not been discovered.
As the shortage has been occurring
just recently it is thought to be the
result of thievery. The tanks are
securely locked, but there is no way
of locking against a thief. Mr. Ward
has had Mr. Tulle of Omaha here as
sisting in the solution of the matter.
They have suspicions, but are not as
yet divulging them. t
Takes Poultry to Chicago
John P. Pickwell and hi3 assistants
on last Wednesday departed for Chi
cago with a truck load of poultry
chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys.
They make the trip in about 14
hours and it takes approximately the
same length of time to return from
the Windy City. They stop about 20
miles this side of Chicago, where they
dress the poultry before they take it
to market, which makes it both nice
and fresh for the market and thus
they are able to serve their patrons
in the very best manner.
Miss Amanda Stroy HI
Miss Amanda Stroy, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stroy, who Is a
graduate nurse, has herself been ill
fcr some time and has been compell
ed to rest at home and has been un
der the care of experts, who are more
or less puzzled as to her condition.
She was taken today (Monday) to a
hospital in Lincoln for observation
and treatment and may have to un
dergo an operation before the trouble
is corrected and she can be restored
to her former health.
Entertained the Ladies Aid
Mrs. Rudolph Kuehn was hostess
to the members of the Murdock Lad
ies Aid, which met at the beautiful
country home of Mr. and Mrs. Kuehn.
The ladies enjoyed the meeting very
much and looked after the business
which had called them together, a3
well as enjoying a social afternoon
together.

To Organize Sunday School
Realizing the great importance of
Christian education for children, the
pastor and members of the Trinity
Lutheran church, north of Murdock,
are at present endeavoring to start a
Sunday school and open It by Janu
ary 1st. In the past. Trinity Luther
an has been conducting a Saturday
religious school on every Saturday
morning from September till June
preparatory to confirmation and mem
bership into the church.
Even though the Sunday school is
opened, which seems to be quite cer
tain, children of the congregation
will nevertheless be required to at
tend religious instruction lessons,
based upon the teachings of the Lu
theran church, for two years before
they will be admitted to membership
in the church. This will give the
children a still better Christian train
ing than they have been receiving
heretofore.

congregation. A full Sunday school,
both for children and adults is being
planned.
Gocd Yield of Corn
The writer visited the home of
Henry Meierjurgen, southwest of
Murdock, last week and found the
entire force picking corn. The husk
ing machine which works best with
damp husgs, has been kept bury on a
300 acre field, which 13 averaging
better than 50 bushels to the acre.
With this outfit and ample wagons to
haul the husked corn to the crib,
they are able to gather 1,000 bushels
in a single day. Now, thla would be
fine if the price were only such as to
allow a reasonable return to the
farmer for his work in planting and
tending tho crop throughout the sum
mer. However, all are looking for
ward to the advent of better prices
for farm produce, for upon this
hinges the matter of returning pros
perity over the entire nation.
