The Community Christmas tree in
Murray has every assurance of being
a success, although this is the first
time such a project has been at
tempted here.
The tree will be in the street just
under the light by the bank and the
program will be heW in the hall.
Miss Latta. assisted by the teach
ers and Mrs. Brendel. have charge
of the program which assures its
being up to stanilard. Miss Olga
Minford. of Lincoln, will help with
the program.
The financial committee is com
posed of Mrs. James Brown, chair
man; Mrs. W. S. Smith. Mrs. Fred
Lutz. Warren Wiley and Lee Kniss,
and if you wish to help make this
first community Christmas tree the
success it deserves to be and have
not already done so. hand your do
nation to any member of this com
mittee. A list of the donors is pub
lished elsewhere in this department.
and the names of later givers will be
printed next week. Everyone is
urged to contribute.
Mrs. William Sporer is chairman
of the treats committee and it is
planned to give each child who at
tends the Christmas eve festivities

the committee to remember all the
grown-up "children" as well.
Mr. Puis is in Omaha at this writ
ing looking after the securing of
electrical decorations for the tree,
which will be a blaze of light from
top to bottom.

The strip of road leading from
Murray to the corner near G. M.
Minford's place was drifted full of
snow and as long as the wind con
tinued to biow carrying with it the
snow, it wac eif little use to clear
the road out as it would soon fill up
again.
The coming ef better weather,
however, caused a number ef citi
zens to get their shovels out Sunday
and get after the matter of clearing
the roadway so that now one may
get to Murray from the north and
south as well, and travel via auto to
Plattsmouth. Omaha and Nebraska
City is again possible. Those who
had a part in opening up the high
way were Walter Tower, Xick Tried

V. Pitman. Albert Young. Dwyer
Todd. J. Maracek, Henry Rice, Frank
Beed. G. M. Minford. Glenn Prry.
Jesse Vallery, T. J. Brendel and a
number of others from east and south
of town, whose names we were not
able to get. but who worked just as
hard and were as much interested in
doing a good job as were the others.

shape and travelers may steer this
way without fear of going stuck.
