hard day's work.

VERY SUCCESSFUL CONTEST
Coasts Hail Well Filled to Hear the
Program in the Medal Contest
Last Night
DEATH OF A. C. CLARK IN CALIFORNIA.
A Former Employe of the Burlington Shops
and Leader of the Old B. & M. Band.
The Medal Contest Friday night was
up to the standard, if not a little su
perior, to those preceeding. Quite a
nice gathering of people interested in
this work were present and awaiting
the opening number. The president,
Mrs. L. A. Moore,' called. the audience
to order and introduced Father Brad
ley, of the St. John's Catholic church,
who in excellently chosen words, care
fully and fearlessly set forth a fair so
lution of the Liquor Problem, the
main thought being to have good leg
islation, and see that all laws were
rigidly enforced, and closed by appeal
ing to the higher law of morality and
duty to one's God.
This contest differed from the pre
ceding ones in that a musical contest
was held in conjunction. There were
six speakers and six musicians, and as
usual the tone and quality of each
number was so well executed that it
made quite a task for the judges.
The winner among the orators was
Phillip Rouse who spoka with the
true tire and vim of a coming orator.
The one standing second was Dorr
McBride. The other boys need not at
all feel discouraged: there are a great
many chances yet open to them.
Father Bradley, in a few well cho
sen words, presented the medal.
The winner was Miss Clara Janda,
with a close second in Miss Mollie
Godwin. Hilt Wescott made the pre
sentation speech, and referred to the
vast field of music as a world of sen
timent and expression.
While the judges decision were be
ing awaited Miss Margaret Thomas,
Master Iiennie Windham and Mrs.
Beesjn entertained the audience with
recitations, each one favorites with
the Plattsmouth people, and acquit
ted themselves admirably.
A Peculiar Question.
A peculiar questian has been raised
by reason of the remonstrance filed
against the granting of a saloon license
at Burr, in which the district court
knocked out the remonstrance and
ordered the village board to reissue
the license which had been ordered re
voked. The money for the license was
paid in at the time the license was ap
plied for and after the license was
granted the court ordered the saloon
closed. Now the applicant asks the
village board to refund the money
which be paid for the time which he
was closed and not allowed to carry on
his business. The school board of that
village has appealed to the county
superintendent to adjust the matter
and from what legal opions he can get
the village board . and school district
will have to jointly refund each the
proportionate 'share for the time
which the saloon was closed. This is
the first time this matter has ever
been brought up in this county. Ne

Will Give Entertainment.
Through earnest solicitation Miss
Liilian Fitch has consented to give an

J. II. Hall, financier of A. O. U. W.
No. 8. received a message last night
from Mrs. A. C. Clark of San Francis
co, announcing the death of her hus
band who was a member ef this lodge.
A rumor gained currency from this
report that our former townsman
Asher Clark, as the one who had died,
but such was not the case. We men
tion this that his friends may no long
er labor under this impression.
Asher Clark is reported a few days
ago as enjoying good health at his
home near Los Angeles. A. C. Clark,
the man who died, was once a resident
of this place. While here he worked
in the Burlington paint shops and was
leader of the B. .S: M. band.

class and audience alike. Greenwood

fails. When reduced with water and
sweetened it is pleasant to take. For

New School Law.
The new free nigh school law pass
ed by the recent legislature, left the
matter of determining what schools
should be classed as High schools with
the state department. This depart
ment has recently ruled that no school
shall be admitted which will not have
its course conform to the work as out
lined in High School Mutual. A school
carrying ten grades must have at least
four teachers; one carrying eleven
must have at least two teacher in the
High school. To carry the ninth grade
the school must employ three teach
ers. Greenwood, Eagle, Alvo, Avoca,
Nehawka and Union are affected.
Supt. Gamble has conferred with the
boards of all the places this week with
the exception of Nehawka, and all of
these have arranged to meet the re
quirements, some by employing an
other teacher and others by cutting
one grade from the course. Nehawka,
Mr. Gamble says, will in all probabili
ty meet the requirements, also that
students may also attend there under
the free tuition law. Murray, Manley,
South Bend and Cedar Creek will be
unable to meet the requirement, the
schools being too small to employ the
additional teachers required.
