THURSDAY, MARCH 4, 1915. ptATTSJiotrrn semi-weekly journal. pace 3. 9 s- IX PLATTSMOUTH -J. FORTY YEARS AGO. " i"" i",A"A" The hail storm was very severe in the county several miles west of here, through the farms of Joe Gilmour, Mr. Craig, Mr. Ilolmus, and so on through the Mt. Tleasant district, and down into Otoe it did great damage. Farmele & Johnson brought in a carload of fine horses on Tuesday, and propose taking them through on foot to Ashland; the B. & 11. not giving them rates cheap enough to warrant their carrying the horses farther. Some of the horses were fine carriage animals. Married On the 27th insU at the residence of the bride's father, in Plattsmouth, by Rev. Chas. McKelvey, insisted by Rev. A. Wright, Mr. F. E. White and Miss Lottie Vallery, all of Plattsmouth. This event has been casting its shadow before for some taime in .our little burg, and not often are two people united in the holy bonds of wedlock who carry with them more of the good wishes of the pc-ople of than do this couple. 'Frank." as he is generally known, is one of our most enterprising and irdustrious young bgusiness men; and Miss Lottie is the daughter of one of Piattsmouth's oldest settlers and staunchest citizens. The relatives of the bride and groom and a few in timate friends comprised the guests. The cermony took place about 11 o'clock. The bride's dress was drab gros grain made with trained skirt and basque, the trimmings of tulle, arranged in sash ends and loopings at the back. After the ceremony and attendant congratulations, during! which the bride and groom comported themselves with becoming dignity, a dinner was served of the most bounti ful kind. Among the., wedding pres ents were a handsome castor, a but ter cooler, two very handsome nap kin rings, inscribed with "Frank" and "Lottie, and the groom's present to the bride, a very handsome watch and chain. They left on the afternoon train for a short bridal trip, the good wishes of their many friends follow ing them. Dr. Dio Lewis, the great temper-i-nce reformer, has been visiting rela tives in Piatt smouth the past week, aiid at the earnest solicitation of the members of the Woman's Temperance association he consented to aid them in their work by addressing the peo ple of Plattsmouth on the subject of "Temperance," on Sunday evening. Although suffering quite severely from hay fever, on account of which he had refused hitherto to speak, he waived his objection in favor of Plattsmouth. Sunday evening being stormy prevented so large an as semblage as would otherwise have done, but still there was a very fair turnout the Methodist church being comfortably filled. For lack of space we shall attempt no review of the lecture. We were very much pleased wiih it, however, and partciularly with the moderation evinced through out. Dr. Lewis, who it will be re membered was the leader of the re cent crusade, stated that the crusade was a failure wherever it was not carried on in Christian love; that when conducted aggressively and per sistently for many hours each day it was contrary to the original intention and worked far more harm than good. He also sketched a plan of quiet and effective work by means of com mittees of two composed either of men or women, which possessed many points of merit. Throughout all he continually enforced the mandate, whatever you do, do it in a spirit of love, do not allow anger or impatience to possess you, for then all your power is gone." In the name of the people of Plattsmonth, we thank Dr. Lewis for the "friendly talk" which so entertained and instructed us all, and hope that on his return from California in the spring he will not pass us by. Judge Newell comes out and helps us again. May the fates be kind to the judge. next year is finally arranged, ap parently satisfartorily. At one time the board decided to take the scholars from the High school building and re turn thera to the. wards. This came so near abolishing the graded system that the mayor thought it not safe to try. As it now stands there will be six months school in the High school building, with Miss Johnson in charge of the grammar class, and the other grades to be left as they were essen tially with most of the old teachers. Here ia the law bearing on these points: It establishes the school board as a corporate body and vests all the authority in them "In ail cities wherein graded and High schools have been or may hereafter be established." We established a graded and High school here under this law, that is certain. By this law our school sys tem can only be revoked under certain conditions, as follows: "That any city of the second class may suspend the operation of this law, by a majority vote of said city in favor of suspension, and the city authorities are empowered to submit such question of suspension at a.iy municipal election of said town, when a petition signed by a majority of the citizens of said town shall be pre sented asking the same."

Seybolt has returned from Idaho, and goes east soon to try his fortune. William Agnews train brought in the first carload of new wheat from near Beatrice last week.
