Attending Convention in East

tress cf Nehawka, is in Cleveland,

,. Visited at Ohiowa
Last C-unday, J. W. Murdock and
family and Mrs. W. S. Norris (who
was formerly a Murdock) together
with Mr. and Mrs. Vilas Kettlehut,
went to Ohiowa for a visit at the
home cf Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Pyke,
former residents here, who now re
side near that place. Mrs. Pyke was
formerly Miss Murdock and closely
related to the different members of
the visiting rarty. They spent a most
pleasant day there and returned home
late in the evening.
Their visit to Ohiowa calls to mind
the interesting- sequences that led
to the naming of the town, as two
groups of settlers located there, one
from Ohio and the other from Iowa,
and when there became a sufficient
number to warrant incorporating a
town, a compromise between the two
groups resulted in it being called
Ohiowa.
Schools Open Auspiciously
Nehawka has an enviable reputa
tion among towns of this size over
the state in the matter of school fa
cilities, as the consolidated school
here serves the town and surround
ing territory and has one of the best
faculties that money can hire, the
equal of those in large city schools.
The schools opened last week with
plenty of enthusiasm among both the
instructors and students and a very
promising year looms ahead.
Of course, it costs a"nice sum of
money to maintain good schools and
hire competent instructors, but in
the end the dividends that accrue
will mere than offset the cost in
volved. As a result of the facilities offer
ed by the local schools a consider
able number of tuition pupils from
eighth grade rural districts are at
tracted to the high school here, thus
helping to relieve the burden of cost
of maintaining our fine school sys
tem. Guests from Honolulu
- Some fifteen years ago when Miss
Gertrude Sturm, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Andrew F. Sturm, who is now
Mrs. John O. Yeiser, of Omaha, was
a student at the fashionable Wellsley
girls' college in Massachusetts, she
became a close friend and chum of
a fellow student. As time went on,
both married. Miss Sturm making her
home in Omaha, while her friend
married a Dr. Duryea and with Lerl

husband located in Honolulu, where
they have since resided.
Just recently. Dr. Duryea and
wife cfme back to the United States
for a visit of some two months, and
in tha course of their journey can e
through Omaha, where they stopped
off for a short time. Mr. and Mrs.
Duryea and Mrs. Yeiser were guests
at the home of the latter's parents,
Mr. 3jd Mrs. Sturm, in Nehawka, a
few days ago, and a most enjoyable
time as had. especially the two
former school girl chums, who lived
in memory's fancy the days of their
school life.
Dr. and Mrs. Duryea tell many
interesling stories of life on this
important island empire located some
2,000 miles from the shores of the
United States. The city of Honolulu,
where they reside, has about 150,000
population and is located on the is
land of Hilo, which is just about the
size of Cass county. The main pro
ducts are sugar and pineapple. The
vlimate there is ideal, they say, with
temperatures ranging from 65 to 80
degrees the year 'round.
Returns from Western Trip
Mrs. Nelson Berger arrived home
last week from a trip to the west,
where she visited relatives in Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington dur
ing tho past month. She had a most
enjoyable time and saw many inter
esting sights, but like most travelers,
was wt-11 pleased to get back home
again.
Cass county has no bonded I p

has paid cash for its grave; roarts
and other Improvements. That's
a mighty gora policy to pursue.

First Day of Fair.
Tuesday, scheduled as the first day
of the Cass county fair, was very far
from fair, for the rain came down in
torrents, filling the creek with turbu
lant tumbling waters and also soak
ing the surrounding territory and in
suring a good opportunity for the
seeding of the fall wheat of which
there is promise of great acreage to
be sown.
While in a sense the opening day
was spoiled for the fair, the rain did
much more good than a fair day with
bright skies would have. With the
clearing of the weather the success
of the fair is assured for the new
life and hope for another year's crop,
the attendance of the fair will be
multiplied.
Teh regular amusement apparatus
in the form of wheels, swing and
other devices were in evidence, as
well as the eating places to take
care of the hungry. The entrants
were very liberal as to the exhibitors
and everything looks like an excel
lent fair which Cass county has every
year whether it be a dry season or
normal.
Baby Nnrsery for Fair.

joy the county fair, whether the
bride with the first infant, or the
more mature matron, and to be free
