Everything is ready, the stage is
set and all indications are promising
of the best of times for our friends
from out of town and the people oi
Plattsniouth.
Several weeks ago had anyone said
it would be possible to conceive an
entertainment project of such magni
tude for this city it would have been
considered impossible, but now those
who had any doubt of the success
of the undertaking have had their
doubts entirely removed. From the
six stores, Wescotfs, Dovey's, Soen-
nichsou's, Fetzer's, Wurl's and The
Ladies Toggery, to whom the credit
is due of having the initiative to
attempt such an undertaking, to
every man, woman and child in the
city, all fears have been swept aside
and each and every citizen of this
community is pulling with all their
might for the success of this mam
moth adventure in advertising our
town.
Every merchant and business man
in the city has been busy the past
few days arranging their affairs so
as to devote all possible time to the
entertainment of their visiting
friends. Many different plans have
been evolved in the stores carrying
different lines of merchandise to of
fer special inducements to the visi
tors to make Plattsniouth their
trading center. We have in this city
stores of all kinds that compare fov
orably with those of much larger
cities elsewhere and the many price
inducements offered here during the
next fifteen days should convince
our neighbors in the near towns that
Plattsniouth is the real place to buy
and buy right.
To everyone who comes there is a
welcome surprise in store, for from
one end of the city to the other, they
will find something of interest in
every store.
Mr. T. H. Pollock, of the Pol
lock Auto Company is in charge of
a very active committee of "live
wire" auto men here, among whom
are J. F. Wolff of the Wolff Garage;
J. H. McMaken, of the (). K. garage
and L. F. Terryberry of the John
Bauer Auto company. These gen
tlemen with a number of other local
"pep" artists are planning to display
all the new models in their respec
tive cars, together with tractors, and
all the new ideas for the modern
farmer and their co-operation prom
ises to be a feature of the coming
two weeks.
Always the most popular spot in
town for the visitor and the traveler,
the Wagner hotel has stepped out to
make this likeable place even bet
ter and enters into the list with
other "merchants" offering bargains
by serving their famous mid-day
luncheon at a special price during
the circus.
E. J. Richey, the popular lumber
man, is not to he outdone ami says
he will sell everything from a shin
gle to an entire house or barn at
prices that will make every one in
the country take notice. The Cloidt
Lumber company are not only prom
ising some interesting quotations,
but to them the Bargains Circus
owes a depth of gratitude for their
donation of the lumber to the Ameri
can Legion with which to build the
great amusement platform at Fifth
and Main, which will be oflicially
dedicated by the grand ball of the
American Legion on Friday night,
as well as used by the Legion for
several other benefit dances in the
interest of their new club home. In
addition the platform will be open
for many free exhibitions and com
munity dances at which no admis
sion will be charged.
That the Bargains Circus is a
real proposition, is easily under
stood when it is approved by such a
conservative institution as the Platts
al mouth State Bank. The First Na
tional Bank is after your business,
and the Cass County Bank will keep
"open house" for every one of the
city's visitors and its friends.
Dunbar's pool hall, which is the
best of its kind in the city, has plan
ned to take care of everybody, and
the "root beer" parlors will quench
the thirst of every visitor to this
popular place. C. L. Herger, the "pie

Mr. (Jhrist of Glirist & Ghrist. the
official photographers of the Circus,
not only announces a twelve hour
1 1 in service for th- visiting kodakers.
but a special offer on portrait sit
tiiifis. Philip Thierolf is ripht in
l lie midst of his already successful
"Burglar Sale' ur.,1 will have price
inducements that should make this
popular store a place of interest,
while down the street. Bach & Lib-
rshal. those popular grocers, will
have some specials to offer you that
will make it worth while to visit
t hem.
Frank Best or. the "Winchester"
man. has just returned from an east
( rn trip, where he has filled up on
ideas as to showing the visiting pub
lic how to keep things good to eat
with one of their f.ir cooled "Chilcot"
refrigerators. Johnny Hatt, of llatt
ti. Son's popular market, has been
busy all week getting lined up for
the busiest time of this already busy
.tore, and has some bargains up his
sleeve that will make things hum
around there.
Between selling the largest line
of watches, dorks and silverware in
;own for the coming two weeks and
playing all the new Brunswick rec
ords for his out-of-town friends, M.
'). Brown, the popular jeweler, will
have a busy time, while J. W. Crabill
promises some interesting new fea
tures in fitting blisses.
William Schmidt maun, the harness
man, has some real values in har
ness which lie claims will surprise
and please the farmers who visit his
tore, and which together with the
excellent line of trunks and bags
arried by this wide-awake store
. hould make this an interesting spot
to visit, while a trip to C. E. Ilart
ford's place will lind a demonstra
tion of Pratt's stock food and ev
erything in stork preparations.
Another interesting event for the
visiting farmer is the offer of John
F. Corder of a special discount dur
ing these Circus days on Do Lavel
::id Primrose cream separators, and
he will also have quite an exhibit
of Dodge cars.
Adolph C.iese, the champion soft
drink dispenser of the city, has filled
up his ire boxes to the brim so that
no one may go thirsty. One of the
preNippt spots in the town and the
center of interest for the younger
ret will be Guy Morgan's Balcony
Garden, which will be open during
the Bargains Circus and, the out-of-towner
will find this the coolest
place in town p.nd a regular palace
of sweets. Guy has something in a
Carnival cocktail that needs investi
gating; it's a dandy.
Emma Pease announced her great
sale of the Jordan millinery stock,
and ladies you should not miss this.
Every hat from this stock is offered
at half price, and there are lome real
beauties included in these hats. Of
course nothing would be complete if
the Popular Variety store did not
share in it. As usual, Roy Knorr has
joined the Circus enthusiasts with
some real bargains, and his store
should be packed every day of the
great celebration. Ami lest we for
get, rttreight & Streifcht have an ex
hibition of furniture that it would
pay any one to come a long way to
: ee all that is new, and the prices
are to be very interesting during
this fifteen day celebration.
Dozens of business men are send
ing us their offers to help in this
booster undertaking and to list them
all in this issue would be impossible,
but there is no question that with
a bunch of live wires like this be
hind everything that is for the good
of the community, the Bargains Cir
cus should be one buzz of business
and pleasure from the start to the
last bell.
Manager ami Director Harry H.
Harding of the" Circus, announces
that weather permitting. Lieut. Niel
son. the flying parson, will make one
of the most sensational flights ever
attempted over any city on Thurs
day afternoon, and that the 20th In
fantry band will play for the Ameri
can Legion open air dance on Fri
day night and two open air free con
certs on Saturday afternoon and
evening. It's going to be a big time,
given by big people in a big town;
Let's go!
Both of Plattsmouths photo play
houses have booked additional fea
tures for this celebration. Mr. Cloidt
announces that the Parmele will
have some of the best pictures ever
-liown in this theatre while Mr.
Petersen of the Moreland has ar
ranged for special matinees and
some excellent pictures for this event.
Both of these houses are filled with
cooling breezes night and day and
the spectator is assured of entertain
ment of the best, as well as comfort.
Just the thing for these hot nights
is one of those nifty Polar Bear fans.
Jess Warga has a bunch of them and
they will be .picked up quick by those
who care for real hot weather com
fort. Farmers should see Jess while
here about those Monopipe furnaces
and Phelps lighting plants. They
:re worth investigating.
