Farm Holiday Organization is Reaching Out Branch at Mynard to Initiate Group in Center Precinct Tonight Much Interest Shown. From Thursday Dally The Farmer's Holiday movement, a child of the four years of depressed conditions under which the farmers of the west have labored, is spread ing fast in this section of Nebraska and the keenest interest shown in the plans of the various groups. This was evidenced by the largely attended meeting at the Mynard community building last evening and which was attended by farmers from all seitions of east and central Cass county. Tha Holiday association offers no general program, the local groups form their own particular plan of action to suit the locality and the i-mergency of the cases as they arise. The meeting last evening at My nard was addressed by Rev. H. A. McKelvey, the pastor of the Mynard church, who is an enthusiastic work er in the battle for securing equal rights for the farmers and laborers of the country. The address of Mr. McKelvey was one of inspiration to tho members of the group. The state officers who had planned to attend the meeting were unable to be here owing to an interstate meeting at Des Moines, with Milo Reno, nation al president. At the meeting last evening the permanent officers of the association were named, they being: Chairman Charles Stretten. Vice-Chairman Rpy O. Cole. Secretary-Treasurer Royal Smith. The Mynard unit has been asked to assist in the organization of a group in Center precinct and this evening W. F. Nolte and Mr. Stret ten are to meet at the Philpot school house and perfect an organization. In Center precinct the taxpayers league there is being transferred in to the holiday movement to give a broader scope to the work of the organization in that part of the county. In addition to the general farm crisis confronting the country, the Mynard unit discussed many df the tax problems and methods by which they might be lightened. Attorney A. L.. Tidd, of this city, who is also interested in tax reduction organ izations, was present and gave a most interesting talk to the mem bers of the unit. There have been many requests for the local unit to assist In forming holiday branches at Union and Louis ville and which will probably be taken up in the near future.

The Grebe brothers, who have fished on the river for years and have a great deal of equipment that they use in the fishing activities, were the victims of the visit of the thieves a few days ago. They had been in the habit of leaving the mo tor to their boat as well as seins In the shack, but one night decided that it would be best to take them home. Their "hunch" was correct for the next morning when visiting the shack it was found that the lock had been forced and several pair of oar locks as well as a fish dressing hook had been taken. John Richardson also was a suf ferer from the visitation of thieves who Wednesday night proceeded to make away with a large part of his fishing equipment. There are a large number engaged in fishing this winter and the own ers of seins and other fishang equip ment are keeping a close watch that they do not lose these articles so necessary to securing a livelihood. Williac C. Elmelund, legislator in 1913 and 1915, retired farmer and banker, and life long .resident pf Nebraska, died Thursday at his home in Valparaiso at the age of 61. Born on a farm near Wahoo, he lived many years there and at Valparaiso, and twelve years in Lincoln, return ing to Valparaiso last September. He was a democrat and represented Saunders county in the house of rep resentatives. Mr. Elmelund was for some time interested in the banking business at Greenwood, while still a resident of Lincoln, and is well known in the western portion of Cass county. Surviving Mr. Elmelund are his wife, Eva; three- sons, Nelson W. of Los Angles, and Wilbur E. and Wayne C at home; two daughters Mrs. Lucile Melehior of Valparaiso and Miss Edith at home; and two bro thers and a sister. Ed, Arthur and Miss Hulda, on the paternal farm near Wahoo. SHOWS SOME IMPROVEMENT The many friends here of Mrs. W. S. McGrew, of Louisville, presi dent of the Cas3 County Woman's club federation, will be pleased to learn that she is improving. Mrs. McGrew was taken from her home at Louisville some two weeks ago to Omaha, where she was operated on at the Methodist hospital. Follow ing the operation the patient de veloped a case of "hospital mumps," of a swelling of the glands of the glands of the throat and which made it difficult for the patient to breathe and as a result it was necessary to operate a second time and place a tube in the throat for breathing. For several days the condition of the patient was critical, but she is now eome better and the swelling re ceding so that it is hoped she may soon be on the highway to recovery. TAX PROPERTY BILL The state house of representatives Wednesday took up the consideration of a measure which is of interest in Plattsmouth and other cities of the state. This is house roll No. 121 by Ratcliffe of Hitchcock and Wells of Jefferson. It is providing for sale upon affirmative vote of three- fourths of a city council or village board, of property acquired thru fore closures on taxes or other liens and permits this to be done by ordinance. As explained by its introducers and others it is designed to relieve the tax burden by putting more property back on the tax list.

PLATTSMOUTH From Saturday's Dally The office of Sheriff Homer Sylves ter has been busy the past few days tracing down all possible leads that might reveal the identity of the three young men who attempted the rob bery of the McCulloch farm home last Wednesday morning. The investigation of the sheriff has revealed that on January 8th, Ed Mc Culloch, who resides with his mother and sister at the farm, had been stuck up by a man who visited the farm, but that on that occasion as was the case at the last visit, there had been nothing secured. At the time of the previous hold up, Mr. McCulloch was home in the evening when a stranger appeared and stated that his car was stuck near the farm and he wished the aid of a car or team to help pull the car. Mr. McCulloch offered to go and see if he could help push the car until it start ed, the man saying that his wife and child were in the car. As the two men came out of the front yard and had progressed down the road a short distance, another man joined the par ty and Mr. McCulloch was requested to turn over $5 or what money he had. Not having any money with him he was berated and threatened by the men with being "taken for a ride." The men had a gun with a bayonet on it, McCulloch stated to the officers. After argument and convinced that the farmer had no money with him, the party of men drove away. The night of the stickup was bright moonlight and the men in the party resembled very strongly the descrip tion of the trio of masked bandits who were at the farm last Wednes day. Mr. McCulloch did not report the incident for fear of alarming the oth er members of the family. The fact that the farm is located off the main arteries of travel Indi cates that the persons who came to the farm made the trip with this par ticular farm as their objective and had not merely selected the place at random to stage their stick-up. . HOLD OFF ON LICENSES County Treasurer John E. Turner has been advised by the motor ve hicle division of the department of public works, that while they have not issued any order for the dis continuance of the issue of auto li cense plates, pending a new bill, that there is a change contemplated. Leaders in the state legislature, be longing to the house roads commit tee, have advised Nebraska car own ers not to purchase their plates at this time. The legislature has a bill before them which if is expected will pass, providing for the cutting in two of the license fees for the com ing year. Those who have already paid the license fees will have to be rebated the sum in excess of any new fees, which will bring an expense to the counties. In order to escape the rebating it is asked that the car owners refrain for the present from securing the plates. Pending the passing of the emergency legislation the officers will permit the use of the old plates. CELEBRATES ANNIVERSARY From Friday's Dally Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Sydebotham are today enjoying the passing of the fifty-fifth anniversary of their marriage, which occurred on Janu ary 27, 1878 at Oakley, Iowa. It was on that date that Miss Mary Lane and C. P.
