Fcr Civic Improvement
The various improvement clubs in
and about Nehawka held a meeting
one day last week and arranged to
all work together to make the town
one of the most beautiful in the
country and with the determination
wnicn was evidenced, we are sure
they will do it.
"Aaron Quick from Pumpkin Creek"
That is the title of the play which
the people residing in the neighbor
hood of the Philpot school have turn
ed into a large number of laughs and
still have more to grind out. After
they had presented the play to a
large audience at the home school-
house, they also went to the Lewis
ton Community Center and put on the
play for the benefit of the people re
siding there. The play was directed
by Mrs. D. C. Rhoden.
Hustling, Bustling Nehawka
Yes, she is just that, for she is as
busy as a town of her size can be
With more than 50 employed at the
Olsen stone quarry, where they are
loading six cars of stone per day, and
all hopping to it, and the beginning
of the pavement, which calls for the
unloading of vast quantities of ma
terials here, the rumble of the dump
trucks is heard from early morning
till late at night a"s they hurry to
and fro in their work. The number
of residents here has been greatly in
creased and there is a sense of busi
ness in the air, with prosperity as
sured. " It is fine to see the large
number of men employed and Ne
hawka will profit from the fruits of
their labor. The stone quarry opera
tIonS promIge to W permanent, imt
the paving work will cf course en
in a few weeks. However, during the
time the men ere here, they are em
ployed arid will contribute to the
upbuilding of the town. The grad
ing outfit, which made its headquar
ters in Nehawka during the winter
has now moved to Union, where they
are making the dirt fly, and sure they
have the equipment to do it with.
Extension Club Picnic
A number of the members of the
Extension club workers in Nehawka
got together at the home of Mr. and
Mrs. George C. Sheldon on last Sun
day, where they enjoyed a picnic
party on the lawn. The gathering
was a most pleasant one and they
enjoyed their dinner on the lawn
Among those present to enjoy the oc
casion and the fine spirit of fellow
ship that prevailed were Messrs and
Mesdames B. E. Summers, Leo Switz-
er, Frank Lemon, Fred Schumacher,
Henry Wessell, A. A. McReynolds
and Vilas P. Sheldon. Grandmother
Schumacher also was present and en
joyed the gathering.
Select Nehawka Girl Assistant
Miss Lenora Pollard, who is at
tending the University of Nebraska,
where she is a member of the Fresh
man class, was selected as assistant
to the Queen of the May at the fes
tivities held in Lincoln Thursday. The
practice is to select the Queen from
the Senior clas3 and two assistants
from each of the other classes, and
Miss Lenora was selected from the
Freshman class by a vote of the girls
of the class, which shows that she is
a very popular young lady with the
members of her class.
Neither the name of the Queen
or her assistants is divulged prior to
the holding of the festivities, which
prevented us from making the an
nouncement of her selection last
week. The Journal congratulates
Miss Pollard on her popularity.
Delivers Wonderful Address
Rev. E. S. Pansbcrn, pastor of the
Methodist churches at Weeping Wat
er and Nehawka, and who is also a
member of the I. O. O. F. and well
qualified to discuss the principles
and practices of Oddfellowship, deliv
ered a special address to the Nehawka
lodge of Odd Fellows and a large
audience as well, bringing out many
cf the fine principles inculcated by
this noble order. He toli in detail
of how iuuy. cf the. Christian prac
tices are put into effect by "true Odd
Fellows and pointed out that It was
a distinction to hold membership in
this splendid fraternity. The large
audience listened attentively to his
address and many complimented him
at the close.
Heme from Eoehester
Mrs. J. H. Steffens, who has been
at the Mayo Bros, hospital in Roches
ter, Minn., for nearly two months,
arrived home last Friday morning,
accompanied by her daughter, who
had been there with her the latter
part of her stay. Although the trip
home proved tiresome, she was much
pleased to be back home, and after
resting up she has been feeling en
couraged over ' the improved condi
tion of her health.
Wins Eox of Candy
Miss Margaret Ileebner, who was
one of the contestants in the selec
tion of a name for the new cafe that
Frank McCoy and wife have recently
opened here, was the winner of the
box of candy given for submitting
the winning name. There were four
teen names turned in, five of them
being the same, to-wit, "The Home
Cafe." The committee selected to
pick the winning name was composed
of Marion Tucker and Albert Ander
son, and after considering them all.
they chose the one proposed by Miss
Heebner, which was "TipTop."
Senior Play Splendid
Last Saturday evening, the Senior
class put on their play at the auditor
ium to a well filled and well pleased
house. "Digging Up the Dirt" wa3
the title of the play, the cast of
characters being given in last week's
paper. The splendid acting cf the
young people taking part brought
them many compliments and the
show was applauded repeatedly. All
members of the cast are Seniors and
will be graduated from the local high
school in a few weeks. The Spanish
dancing girl part was taken by Miss
Lois Troop, who pleased the large
crowd with her dancing. Another
feature of the show not provided by
Senior class members was the male
quartet,, composed of Peter Jourge
sen, Burriell Adams, Harley Kearney
and Tommy Troop. Their rendition
of ''Down by the Old Mill Stream"
was very pleasing to the audience.
While digging in the dirt they ; did
find some gold, and there was repeat
ed applause for an encore number by
the Quartet, but a3 they were a new
organization and had not had time
to practice very much they were un
able to conrply. 1 - -:- - - - - -

Last Evening
Attack of Heart Trouble Causes
Death of Well Known Resident
of This Community.
From Wednesday's Dally
Mrs. "Walter Brittain, 51, died late
last night following a sudden attack
of heart trouble and from which she
failed to rally and died before medi
cal aid could reach her side.
Mrs. Brittain had awakened her
husband and seemed to have diffi
culty in breathing and the husband
had urged calling a physician, but
the wife stated that she would be all
right in a few moments and Mr.
Brittain had then raised her head
with pillows to endeavor to. relieve
her breathing. She continued to
grow worse and the husband then
left for a doctor despite her protests.
In order to secure a physician it was
necessary to drive clear to the busi
ness section of the city. When the
medical aid arrived at the Brittain
home, Mrs. Brittain had passed away.
The deceased lady has made her
home here for the past eight years
fince her marriage to Mr. Brittain,
and was a lady held in the highest
esteem by a large circle of friends
over the city. The many friends will
join in their sympathy to the be
reaved husband on the loss that has
come to him.

Begin Grading East of Union
A force of workmen is busy grad
ing the stretch of roadway from the
edge of Union to the juncture with
U. S. 75, and expect to get the grad
ing work out of the way in ample
time for it to settle before the pav
ing force now working west of town
gets ready to move to this end and
lay the paving that will run through
Union.
The moving of the grading force
here has brought a number of men
to town who previously had been
working out of Nehawka, and their
presence has put Union in the busy
class again; despite the fact that it is
somewhat cut off during the grading
work, and loses seme trade that or
dinarily comes here. During the grad
ing of the stretch east of town, en
trance from the east will be espec
ially difficult, but with the complet
ion of the paving work and with a
finely paved Main street, Union will
again come into its own.
The grading work has made neces
sary the removal of some half dozen
trees from the Banning orchard and
there will be a large strip cut from
in front of the home of E. E. Leach,
