They are expecting to play a concert on the home grounds some Sunday in the near future, and announcement of the exact date will be made in due time so all may attend. A Pertinent Question Repeated A number of the inhabitants of Union and vicinity have been mak ing inquiry of the Journal field man as to whether or not there will be an old settlers picnic at Union this year. While we would like, to be able to answer this question, we can not do so, and can only say, it is up to YOU Mr. and Mrs. Citizen of the community. After having been conducted regu larly for almost half a century (with the exception of a brief interlude the past couple of years) it would seem like a bad thing to fall down on the proposition now. We woulcl certainly like to see a good, old fashioned Old Settlers Re union held here again this year and regularly each year in the future. We believe they are good for the town and for its people and we stand ready to do what we can in that direction, aided by the paper we represent, but the initiative must come from the interested citizens of Union and vi cinity men and women who have or will take the time to get out and look after the arrangements, plan a program and give attention to the many other details. So, we are pass ing the question back to you will you have a reunion again this year? It can be done, but there is no time to lose if you expect to do it. Played Baseball Sunday The Union baseball team played a game with the Wyoming Wild Cats last Sunday at the Sciota ball park, with the result that the Union lads won over the other team by a score of 17 to 3. The Union team will play at the Louisville celebration July 4 (Sat urday) and again on Sunday at Otoe, and expect to give a good account of themselves in both contests. Swimming and Life Saving Classes The Cass County Chapter, Ameri can Red Cross will sponsor again this summer the Life Saving program as in the past two years. Instruction will begin July C at the Merritt sand pit lake north of Plattsmouth, and will include be ginners, swimmers, Junior and Sen ior life saving instruction. Boys and girls from the county seat as well as other eastern Cass county towns are eligible to attend this course. The Plattsmouth branch of the Cass coun ty chapter, of which W. G. Kieck is chairman and Mrs. Lottie Rosencrans secretary, is sponsoring transporta tion to and from the pool for county seat boys and girls who have no oth er way of going. Permits are obtain ed from Mrs. Rosencrans. This course lasts an entire week. The same plan will be observed at Weeping Water by the Weeping Wat er branch of the Cass county chapter, providing, as last year, transporta tion for Weeping Water children to and from the Louisville lakes, begin ning July 18. Watch papers for the schedule of classes. At Weeping Wat er permits may be obtained from the officers of the Weeping Water branch, Mrs. Behrends, chairman; Miss Rough, secretary, also from Mrs. R. E. Norris, chairman of Life Saving for Cass County Chapter. Mr. J. D. Chesneau, who was with the chapter the first year of instruc tion, will be the Red Cross instructor and examiner this year.
