looking frog is Bitting beside one
seeming to be almost ready to leap
into the water. Colored lights are
placed among the rocks, adding to
the attractiveness. There are at
least thirty different cacti.
Each person visiting the flower
show will be given the opportunity
of casting a ballot for what they like
best in the flower Bhow.

The Plattsmouth Business Men's
Ad club at a recent meeting joined in
asking that all who could do so, get
out and attend the game and also the
platform activities will be stopped

school players put out in training
and playing for the blue and white
of Plattsmouth.
The Platters tied with "Weeping
Water last week at the county fair,
but with their first game over and
out of the way, they are planning on
really going places for the rest of
the season. With a new line, only
one of whom was a veteran, the team

Mother hasn't been well and we got the
telephone for emergency calls to the doctor.
But more than anything, it's a source of
PLEASURE. We call our friends. They call

know that we could telephone the neighbors if
there was a fire or we needed help for any
other reason. And it coeta so little that it's a
real bargain. Well never be without a tele

the land. Milo Price, head of the
history department of the city schools

parade, the great array of pets of all
kinds which were led or carried by
their happy mistresses or masters and
embracing dogs of large and small
degree.
The doll buggy section, as usual
afforded one of the bright spots with
the cleverly arranged buggies and
these all showed great care on the
part of the children and their par
