tt't of young people whose business It was to sing for three-quarters of no hour

companions. They were hard workers, seriously Interested in pleasing tlveir
nudier.ces. Here was a group of five young people who were doing what to
;ne wa ; very unusual in a thoroughly professional way." Heard either la

Resolution
The following Resolution was j d' cards at the Journal cince.
unanimously adopted by the Board:
"Whereas, on the 19th day of
December, 1916, the Board of Coun
ty Commissioners employed E. J.
Robinson, an expert accountant to
examine and check the records of
all the county officers for the years
beginning January 1. 1914. and end
ing December 31, 1916, and
"Whereas, it appears from the re
port of the expert accountant that a
shortage was found to exist in sev
eral of the offices, and whereas, .the
shortage or discreptencie3 have not
all been settled for.
Therefore, Be it Resolved, By the
Board of County Commissioners of
Cass county, Nebraska, in session as
sembled, that no further claims be
allowed any officer who was found to
be short and who fails to make up
any such shortage.
"Done at Plattsmouth, Nebr., this
4th day of October, A. D., 1917."
There. being no further business,
the Board, ca motion, adjourned to
meet Tuesday. November 6, 1917.
