A Musical and Informal Recep
tion to Teachers and Their
Friends.
From Tuesday' Daily.
The reception given the county
teachers who are attending the teach
ers' institute which is being held in
this city this week, last evening, in
the district court room, was a flatter
ing social success and the large at
tendance was certainly a true indi
cation of a successful institute for
the year 19 1 0. The presence of a
number of the town's people who are
members of the local teaching force
and gome who are not, Indicated the
spirit of welcome and friendliness
felt toward the teachers who are
strangers in our midst.
A musical program was rendered
which was a very pleasing feature of
the evening's entertainment. The
program was opened with an instru
mental solo by Miss Eva Allison of
Murray, which was brilliantly exe
cuted. Miss Helen Cllne then ren
dered a vocal solo In a very charming
manner; after which Miss Marie
Douglass contributed, a reading and
made a distinct impression. Miss
Matilda Vallery of Boine, Idaho, who
lis visiting relatives and friends In
the city, was present and rendered a
vocal solo. Miss Vallery was in fine
voice and her number showed much
training and careful preparation. Fol
lowing Miss Vallery's solo was an
Instrumental solo by Miss Marie
Bookmeyer and with her number
showed marked talent and one of the
coming pianists. As unusual Miss
Douglass was at her best, and with
her finished manner of reciting she
so delighted those in attendance that
at the conclusion of the program
which had been arranged, she was
urged to give another reading which
she very graciously consented to do
and this number was most highly ap
preciated by all. Each one on the
program was most heartily encored
and each most happily responded
Miss Cllne was accompanied on the
piano by Miss Loretta Scotten and
Miss Vallery by Miss Edith Martin
which assisted In making their mini
bers so greatly enjoyed.
The remainder of the evening was
spent In a social way and in getting
acquainted. A punch bowl had been
arranged out in the hall and the
guests were requested to visit the
same. and. to do so' quite frequently
Miss Elizabeth Kerr, Rachael Llv
lngston, Bess Edwards and Esther
Larson were the daintiest of serving
maids and deftly attended to the
large crowds that visited the refresh
ment room. It was a most delight
ful occasion throughout and thor
oughly enjoyed by all present.

Material Scarce.
George Campen, representing the
Consolidated Agency of Omaha, th
gentleman who made the survey and
plans and specifications for the new
paving district, was an ever night
visitor in the city and attended the
opening of the bids by the council
last night. Mr. Campen says the
strikes in the coal fields and amon
the vitrified brlckmakers has ren
dered the supply of paving brick very
scarce. The paving in Omaha has
been reduced to 20,000 a day, while
they could use 250,000 brkk dally
The company has refused to open u
new work and are using their force
placing the asphalt paving.

cannot be too careful. You cannot

be saved much trouble. Sold by all

Throw Any theSrindstone It's Slow! Uuse i Luther Grlnder-
Saves Time!
A Luther's FARM Special
i c nnfl nf thrtcA i t H i r 1 ri c 1 K 1 a firm tr1e . fi.n.A.
is one of those indispensable farm tools. To the farmer
who is discriminating, and looks at quality instead of
price, who wants the BUST whether he buys machinery,
clothing, shoes or food stuff. To such a one, L.UTH
KR'S FARM SPECIAL will strongly appeal. Up to
the time we put out this great labor saving tool he had
to be coutent with the old, slow-cutting grindstone or
unsatisfactory emerv grinder, but now he can have the
service of the most perfect farm tool sharpening device
ever invented. There is not a tool used about the farm
that is superior to our FARM SPECIAL GRINDER as
a labor saver. It sharpens everything in one-twentieth
the time it would take on the grindstone. The grind
stone cuts so slow that you would prefer to work with a;
dull tool rather than endure the backache and HARD
WORK of keeping tools sharp on it.
IT IS EASV to sharpen tool on the Farm Special.
Your ten-year-old hoy will tell you it is fun to sharpen
everything on this FARM SPECIAL GRINDER.

THETEACHERS
Miss Josie Sullivan Addresses
Them on "Temperance"
Yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock,
Miss Josle Sullivan of Lincoln, deliv
ered a lecture on "Scientific Temper
ance" to the teachers at the district
court room. About thirty of the
135 teachers enrolled remained to
hear the lecture, thd majority of the
teachers had become weary from the
day's work and had listened to sev
eral lectures through the day and
were too tired to remain.
Miss Jones was not on the printed
program, and the lecture was thrown
In, and was under the direction of
the W. C. T. U.
Miss Jonos Is an Interesting talker
and appeared to have her subject
well In hand She said in substance
that Nebraska had had a law on the
books since 1886 requiring the sub
ject of physiology to embrace the
effects of narcotics and alchollc liq
uors on the human body The speak
er claimed much of the present tem
perance agitation conies from the ef
fects of the instruction given In the
public schools. She noted the fact
that the majority of the delegates
to the late Lincoln convention which
adopted an option plank In their
platform were young men who had
gotten their Ideas from the scientif
ic Instruction in the egects of liquor
on the body in the public schools.
She stated that the children of drink
ing parents were dullards. Fifty-
three per cent of the children of par
ents Indulging In liquors came un
der this head, while only ten per
cent of children of abstainers from
liquor came under the head of dull
ards. The lecturer gave an example
of a scientist who experimented with
four dogs, giving two of them a cer
tain amount of alchol each day. The
experiment lasted over a period of
five years. All of the tests to which
the dogs were put, the dogs taking
At the Institute.
At the Institute this morning Dr.
Wlnshop lectured on "Soltsts" and
brought out the idea of individual
work, emphasizing the Importance ot
knowing ones task thoroughly In or
der to perform It well. This evening
Miss Rowan will lecture- at 8:30 on
"Domestic Science," the lecture to
take place in the district court room.
The lecture at the Parmele last even
ing was not as well attended by th
city residents as the man and tha
subject merited. One of the instruc
tors of the Institute who has been la
the work in Nebraska for several
years and visited many of the town
of Plattsmouth's class, said to a Jour
nal representation this morning that
the lack of Interest in the Institute
here was remarkable. That In th
other cities Bhe has done institute
work in, the lecture last night by so
noted a speaker, would have brought
out a crowded hall. Miss Foster
wrote to Dr. Wlnshop two years ago
and asked him. when he could be
at Plattsmouth and this week was
fixed at that time as the lecture's,
time was taken up so far in the future.
Allows Plaintiff to File, Brief.
In the case of J. S.' Hall vs.' Th
Commissioners of Cass County and
John Bauer. In the argument of the
cause the plaintiff took the position
that the Improvement being a per
manent fixture on the county farm,
became realty and for that reason
only advertised bids could be taken,
and bids not filed within the tim
set In the advertisement would b
void. The court did not render &
decision, but appeared to think point
of plaintiff was not well taken, but
said he would give the plaintiff until
Saturday to file his brief and show
authorities. It the position of plain
tiff proves correct, then the bids will
probably have to be readvertlsed at
none of them compiled wlth the re
quired advertisement.
Miss Edith Buzzell made s flying
trip to the metropolis this morning.
