9 : 1 i i PLATTSMOUTH SEMI - WEEKLY JOURNAL THURSDAY, MAY 27, 1S27. PAGE EIGHT $ Large Crowd Attends Service for Baccalaureate Eighty-two Graduates Addressed by F.ev. G. A. Pahl Sunday Evening at Presbyterian Church. Rev. G. A. Pahl opened the bac calaureate service at the Presbyterian church Sunday evening with the pre lude. "Even Song" by Johnston. "Festal March" was the procession al. The doxology followed and Rev. V. C. Wright pronounced the invo cation. "I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes" by Rog ers was given as the choir anthem. Mrs. Glen Terryberry sang "I Shall Not Tass Again This Way" as a vocal solo. Rev. J. W. Taenzler presented the scripture reading and Dr. II. G. McClusky, the pastoral prayer. "Bring Me Up Samuel" was the scripture reference used for the bac calaureate address by Rev. G. A. Pahl. His sermon topic was "The Ghost of a Chance." "The most pitiful experience in life is the realization of having lost a great opportunity in life and to want the ghost of an old chance back again," Rev. Pahl said. "If we look far enough we see. not only persons, but nations at Endor's Cave, praying for a ghost of an old chance back again. Through the foolish game of war and lust for power visions have been blinded of seeing opportunities. "Opportunities are also lost in per sonal life in the vocations as well as in society, in marriage, education, and religion. Few people get their first choice. Often the second best has to be accepted thus circumstan tial handicaps present themselves. Often handicaps prove a challenge and desire to succeed in spite of disadvantages. "Education and religion are not to be used merely as something in a book but are to be a part of the life, personality and character o the person. . . . The scripture 13 not given as something gloomy and des perate but in hopes that Samuel will be appreciated while we have him. "My prayer is that you will ap preciate your Samuel, your oppor tunities, give ear to them, and trans mit them into action. I pray God may help you to realize them your oppor tunities and spare you the tragedy of sometime going down to Endor's Cave. Rev. Pahl played "Jubilate Deo" as the postlude. HERE FOR N.C.C. W.

Adams at Lincoln After Illness of Some Duration Loved Resident of Community Many Years, Passes Away. From Tuesday's Daily This morning at 7:45 at the home of her son, Maxwell Adams, at Lin coln, occurred the death of Mrs. Ella Adams, 70, widow of the late Will T Adams, following a long period of ill health and within the past week her condition gave little hope of her recovery. She has suffered a bron chial ailment for the past several years. Ella Cole, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Cole, was born in the state of Ohio and when a child of tender years was brought by her parents to Cass county, Nebraska, where she resided with the parents on the farm near this city in her girlhood and young womanhood. On June 5, IS 87 she was married to William T. Adams, member of one of the pioneer families of Cass coun ty and for many years they resided on the farm Just south of this city until they moved into Plattsmouth and made their home here until the death of Mr. Adams and since which Mrs. Adams has largely made her home with the children, a greater part of the time with the son, Max well and family after their location at Lincoln. There ia surviving four children, Maxwell, Lincoln; Mrs. P. E. Brown, Kearney; Mrs. Harry Nielsen and Jacob E. Adams of this city. One daughter, Mrs. Harriett Pittman pre ceded the parents in death. There also survives one sister, Mrs. Henry F. Goos of this city. Mrs. Adams was a lady loved by. those who knew her best and a kind and loving wife and mother whose passing will bring a deep sorrow to the members of the family and those ho had the pleasure of her acquain tanceship. She has lived her life quietly and unassumingly in the com munity, filled with the love of her home and family and her going is a distinct loss to the community. The body will be brought from Lincoln to the former home on North Eighth street, to remain until the funeral services which will be held on Thursday afternoon at the First Presbyterian church.

Heavy demand has come in from all sections of the county. The west section of the county shows an especially bad hopper situation. One farmer at Greenwood reports a ten acre field of extra early corn clean ed in one day by the hoppers. Farmers who have not yet called for the bran are urged to do so. Sacks of 80 pounds are being distributed at $1.15 to infested areas. The bran should be spread between 6 and 9 a. m. In hot. dry weather spreading may start at sunrise or earlier, but should not continue after 10 a. m. Poisoning in cold, rainy, or cloudy weather is not usually satisfactory. Great care should be taken that bait does not fall in lumps or piles, as these are dangerous to poultry or livestock. Placing bait in piles or scattering so poorly that it lies In lumps not only reduces the kill of grasshoppers but is a violation of the state law governing exposure of poisons. Five to ten pounds of bran, dry weight, are enough to cover an acre. On large areas bait may be scattered in strips from two to four rods apart. The bait should be sprinkled within 48 hours of purchase. Arsenic is slow acting and requires three to five days to make a good kill.
