MONGREL. ALOOF IN LONG,
FREE LIFE AT PRISON
LAN'SINU. Kas.. (UP) Fifteen
years ago a Mongrel pup wandered
up to the RatfH of the Kansas Rtat?
prison lier. A tram of horses, pull
Inp a wagon, emerged and the pup
elected to follow thein.
Today, the dog still aceorjpanla
the horses everywhere. It sleeps with
them In their stalls at the prison
ham. The dog Is blind In one eye
now, badly scarred from numerous
fmMs nnd has acquired th! name, of
I'eedie.
Peedle Is old nnd rheumatic nnd
rnn't trot with the horses, but he
jroes on trips with them, anyway. The
dog rides in the driver's seat.
I'eedie is not like other dogs. He
doesn't mingle with the dogs which
wait for release of their convict mas
ters outside the g.itcH and he keeps
them from coming near the horses.
I'eedie used to be self-sustaining,
rustling his own food, but he's too
old for that now nnd Is fed with
ficrups from the prison dining room.

PLAN EARLY TRIP TO
INSPECT NEW PAVING
For Borne time plans have been
considered for a trip by Mayor LubIi
lnsky, Bonie members of the council
and Interested parties to view the
laying: of the new low priced rock
bound macadam or "pea soup" type
of puvins belnK laid In both Tecum
sch nnd Nebraska City. ATter several
delays. It is expected definite ur
ruiiKementa for the trip as guests of
the Portland Cement association rep
reFcntatlve In this territory, will be
concluded nt Monday night's meet
Injf of the council.
This type of paving, laid with
WPA labor nnd material costs borne
by property owners, cost much less
than that laid under straight con
tract jobs in the old manner, and Is
said to be equal in every way if not
superior. It consists of wet mix con
crete poured over a crushed rock
bnse and then "vibrated" to fill all
the avoids. The resultant slab Is ap
proximately eight lnthes In thick
ness and test cores prove a closer
texture concrete than non-vibrated
cores.
There are some property owners
in Plattsmouth who would like to
hnve paving In front of their prop
erties nnd any such who might de-
Bire to go to Tecumseh or Nebraska
City to Inspect it being laid, should
communicate with Mayor Lushinsky
at once.
Teeumeeh is now on Its third con
tract, Involving" n total of some 65
blocks, we nre told. Nebraska City
Is also preparing to let Its second con
tract for a much lesser amount.
A TRIBUTE
Plattsmouth, Nebr.,
October 7, 1937.
On returning home to our little
city after an absence of over thirty
days, I missed a familiar and well
loved figure from our streets, and am
told that Dr. T. P. Livingston has
gone away to respond to his last
call, and I cannot help feeling lonely.
A long time, and highly valued
friendship prompts a personal tri
bute to thi3 good and useful citizen.
For more than half a century Dr.
Llvlncston with medicine case in
hand has dally and nightly traveled
along the streets and over the hills
of our city in response to calls to
alleviate suffering. No night has
been too dark, no days has been too
bleak, or stormy: no home too
humble to deter him from answering
calls of distress. In answer to such
calls he has crossed the threshold of
nearly every home in Plattsmouth,
and continued faithful to the respon
sibility assumed, as long as medical
skill could avail. It is a well known
fact that he rarely, If ever presented
a bin ror nis services, and oy giving
his time, skill and actual money value
In surrender of fees dearly earned, lie
has contributed to the community
more worthy charity than any other
person or association: and never
complained. He may have had some
weaknesses and faults so have we
all. We all well known that abso
lute perfection is no heritage of hu
man kind, but let us hope nnd be
lieve, we DO hope and believe that
the Great Divine Chemist who with
gold from the dross of human life,
found an abundance of gold In the
life of Dr, T. P. Livingston to be
assembled into a crown of glory, and
that he rests In peace in that Realm
where there Is no suffering or pain.
A FRIEND.

Edward Iiashus. one or the local
World war, veterans, is at the U. S.
Veterans' hospital at Lincoln where,

Dashus has suffered a great deal in

made it impossible for him to look

Mr. and Mrs. Ed Corneal and sons,
Willis and Arnold, of Dunnegar., Mis

enkamp an dat whoso home they were

of the local people.
CORN YIELDS GOOD
Early corn shucking reports indi
cate mat a great many ileitis are
