Excellent Woman Called Home
Miss Frances Mathis was born 47
years ago in the vicinity of Green

hood, attending the schools here. Up
on attaining womanhood, she was
married to Albert Erichson. They re
sided, here for a time, but later moved
to Colorado and have made their home
at Kirk. Mrs. Ericksnn, early in life,
united with the Methodist church,
and has lived a devoted and consistent
Christian life ever since.
Their home was blessed with one
son, Everett, now 11 years of age.
During the last few years, Mrs.
Erickson has been troubled with a
heart affliction and in addition suf
fered an affection of one of her legs,
for which an operation was perform
ed at the Bryan Memorial hospital in
Lincoln late in September. Since she
was able to leave the hospital, she
had been staying at the home of her
parents, Mr. and Mrs. C A. Mathis.
For a time the amputated member
did not heal readily, but she had been
getting along nicely of late and seem
ed on the road to recovery, the cause
of her death, which occurred last
week, being heart failure.
The funeral was held from the
Methodist church, with interment in
the Greenwood cemetery.
The relatives and friends of this
good woman have the sympathy of
their many friends here.
Have Excellent Ball Team
Greenwood High school has two
good basketball teams, the regular
first team and an almost equally good
second team. Coach Lee Knolle has
a knack of getting the best out of his
players and has a fine list of first and
second string players, who are ready
to get into the fray at a moment's
notice and do their part to uphold the
glory of Greenwood High.
The two teams met like teams from
Nehawka last week and won both
games by decisive scores. The game
between the first teams was a lop
sided affair, with Greenwood scoring
48 points to their opponents' 3. The
second teams were more evenly pit
ted, however, and the score was 16
to 7 in favor of the home boys. Go
to it. boys play the game square at
all times, and win or lose you will
have no regrets.
Pretty Home Wedding
Last Thursday there occurred the
wedding of Miss Marian Sheffer and
Charles Beighnes, a resident of Wis
consin, who was here during the time
the pavement was being laid on high
way No. 6 thru Greenwood. The wed

by members of the family and a few
close friends. The marriage lines
were read by the Rev. W. T. Shep
herd, pastor of the Methodist church
at Elmwood and a former pastor here
The groom arrived here on Tuesday,
from his home in the east, making the
trip in his car, and they left at 2
o'clock Thursday afternoon, expecting
to arrive at the new home by Friday
Mr. Beighnes is well known to a
large number of people in Greenwood
as a result of his residence here while
the paving work was in progress. The
bride he has won is a daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. L. V. Sheffer and was
born and raised in Greenwood, hav
ing the honor and respect of all who

The Order of Eastern Star held its
regular meeting on last Wednesday
at the hall, and upon conclusion of
the regular order of business took up
the election "of new officers for the
ensuing year. After this they enjoy
ed a Christmas program and busied
themselves with plans of providing
Christmas cheer in those homes of the
community where the prospect of old
Santa stopping cn his rounds seemed
rather remote. Mrs. W. G. Holt was
initiated into the mysteries of the
order.

ley. W. P.; Mrs. Edna Clymer, asso
ciate Matron; W. I. Miller, associate

Greenwood Woman's Club
The Greenwood Woman's club met
last Wednesday at the home of Mrs.
E. A. Landon. After the regular busi
ness meeting, Mrs. O. F. Peters read
a paper on "Community Christmas."
The rest of the time was spent mak
ing plans for the Christmas relief
work to be done by the club. Mrs.
Wayne Landon and Mrs. Cedric Ful
mcr were guests.
Mrs. Dewey Headley, as chairman
cf the Welfare committee, asks that
all who have old toys that can be re
paired and used again, please bring
them to her home or notify her and
she will see that they are collected.
The club, with the help of other re
lief organizations of the town, plans
to see that the toys are repaired and
distributed to the children of the
community who would not otherwise
receive toys this Christmas.
The benefit card party given re
cently by the club was fairly well at
tended and enjoyed by those present.
However, the cold weather and pre
vailing sickness hindered many from
taking part who had planned to do
so. It is hoped that another such
party may strike a more favorable
time. The funds from this party and
other activities of the club will be
used in bringing Christmas cheer to
the needy of our community. Mrs.
Mathews and her committee wish to
thank all who assisted in making the
party a success.

Attorney General C. A. Sorensen
Rules That Amendment Is
Necessary.
Lincoln, Dec. 14. An opinion that
the Nebraska legislature cannot au
thorize manufacture of intoxicating
liquor without an amendment of the
state constitution was prepared today
by Attorney General C. A. Sorensen.
Answering an inquiry from State
Representative Rudolph Tesar of
Omaha he said, however, there had
been some misconception, however,
about the constitution's forbidding
"malt, spirituous, vinous or other in-i
toxicating lijuors." He said there j
had been an attempt to interpret this
as barring any malt, spirituous orj
vinous liquors but that he believed '
the intent of the constitution was to
bar only the liquors of those kinds
which are intoxicating.
Tesar asked if the Volstead act
were changed and beer legalized by
congress if the state legislature could
change its interpretation of intoxi-J
eating liquor to permit beer in Ne
braska. Tho attorney general said
the Nebraska courts had consistently
held the state constitutional provi
sion barred liquor which drunk in a
quantity which a man could consume
practically would be intoxicating.'
Sorensen said it would be a matter of I
fact for the courts to determine what
percentage of alcohol could be per
mitted in a beverage without violat- j
ing the constitutional limitation
against intoxicants.
The opinion recognized tho right
of the legislature to submit a con
stitutional amendment to the people.
World-Herald.
Paris, Dec. 16. Joseph Paul-Bon-cour
tonight undertook the task in
which Camille Chautemps failed to
give France a government likely to
find the best solution to the war debt
problem.
Late tonight he accompanied re
tiring Premier Herriot to Elysee pal
ace, where the latest information on
Washington's attitude toward the
debts, cabled by Ambassador Caudel,
was shown by President Lebrun.
It was said in official circles that
the ambassador's cablegram indicated
that Washington, to which was sub
mitted the chamber of deputies reso
lution against making the December
tinue negotiations on the subject of
15 debt payment, was willing to con
the payment although the due date
is passed. So far as was made known,
no mention was made of the Ameri
can attitude toward a general debt
conference. An official indication of
the American stand is still awaited.
After an hour's talk with Lebrun,
Paul-Boncour left for home, announc
ing that he would talk with his
friends, notably Chautemps. in the
morning and then give the president
his decision. He added that he would
only begin the customary calls and
consultations if he definitely decided
to form a cabinet.
Chautemps, the young radical lead
er, gave up the task of construct
ing a cabinet because he could not
find a compromise on the debt prob
lem. Having failed to find this com
promise, which would be acceptable
to parliament and presumably agree
able to Washington and would assure
belated payment to America, Chau
temps definitely lost the collaboration
of Edouard Herriot, the retiring
premier. World-Herald.
McCAIG-LINHARDT
Mrs. Mary McCaig announces the
marriage of her daughter, Miss Mary
IfcCaig to Fred Linhardt, Jr., or
Avoca which took place at Nebraska

wood high school and haa been cm

SOLON KEPT FROM CAPITOL
Schroeder Rites Last Monday
Funeral services for Henry Schroe
der, of Lincoln, who died the Friday
previous while visiting a daughter,
Mrs. Lillie Walradt, at Clay Center,
were held at the home there on Mon
day, followed by a second service at
Washington. Armed with a hand
ful of campaign cards bearing his
signature, Otha D. WWarin. the twen
ty-eight year old representative
elect from Iowa, almost had to storm
the capitol to gain admission. Wear
ing a scarlet tie, a pale tan shirt and .
a dark brown suit, the gentleman
from the tall corn state ran afoul of
guards wherever he sought to enter.
Doorkeepers of both houses, un
usually cautious because Tuesday a
youth held the house membership at
the point of a gun. shook their heads
vigorously upon his arguments that
he was entitled to the floor. Even
when he produced his campaign
cards, he had to stand by patiently
while guards looked up the records.
"I served two terms in the Iowa state
legislature," he said, "but even out
there I've never been suspected so
much in one day as I was here."
CLAIMS RIGHT TO ESTATE
Ainsworth, Neb. County Judge F.
R. Galbraith Thursday refused to re
open a case involving the will of Ida
May Alton of Long Pine to permit
a contest against its being probated.
After he ordered probate of the
will which left an estimated $13,
3G0 estate to friends in Norfolk and
Long Pine and excluded a nephew,
Ralph Alton Crissler supposed to be
her only heir, another claimant ap
peared. Mrs. Minnie Mitten of Sloan, la.,
alleged that sho was a cousin of Miss
Alton and the only legal heir and
asked that the case be reopened and
probate of the will denied on the
ground that undue influence had
been fnfluenced on Miss Alton.
Attorneys for Mrs. Mitten Thurs
day indicated after the hearing be
fore Judge Galbraith that they would
carry the contest to the district court.
SANTA AND THE SICK
Santa is a big hearted fellow and
doesn't want to see any little child
disappointed so he has sent word that
when he comes next Saturday he will
try and visit those who are too sick
to come down town to see him. Now
this doesn't mean that he will visit all
who prefer to stay at home rather
than exert themselves to come down
town but only cases of actual sick
ness. Have mother call 150 on phone
and give us your name and street
number and Santa will do his best
to call and bring your gift.
