Ccmmiinity Program Excellent
The people of Murdock sure did
themselves proud when they ar
ranged for a community program as
2 service on Thanksgiving evening
and with a concerted spirit, every
body took hold of the matter, assist
ing in the making of the venture
the pronounced success which it was.
The matter of community spirit is
one which will work to the good of
the entire community and should b?
a means of making the town better in
every respect. Good addresses were
mode on the subject by Mrs. Oscar
Zh:I; and Rev. L. Laipply, both touch
ing the popular chord in their dis
course. Joseph Wutchinek and Max
Dusterhoff rendered two very beau
tiful musical numbers on the violin
guitar and piano. ,. There wree oth
er very fine numbers on the pro
gram and the social time and the
ea:s brought the citizens closer to
gether. The entertainment was held
in the church and the number who
could hardly find room to get inside,
demonstrated that this town needs a
larper public gathering place.
The Kiewit quarries across the
river have practically closed down
for the winter, only a small force of
men being retained. j
Ralph Twiss has just completed i
repapering the Odd Fellows hall and j
the work is pronounced very art is-!
tic and satisfactory to members of
that order. The lodge will probably j
have the wood work revarnisbed
which will also make a needed im-1
provement.
Frank Ross moved his family to'
Weeping WTater the first of the week, 1
where he accepted a position as 1
bookkeeper for the Meyer Stone com

Prof. Hawk, superintendent of the
schools, will occupy the Ross prop
erty. Charles Anton, who has been stay
ing around here for a few weeks, was
taken to Plattsmouth last week and !
from there he was sent to Omaha to
be cared for by the county as he was
blind and was without means. He
had lived in Omaha for several years
and was a charge of that city and
while he desired to make his home
in Cass county, the commissioners de
cided be would have to return to the
metropolis.
J. M. Hoover fpent Sunday in
Omaha with his son-in-law and
daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Lee LaTour.
Mr. LaTour is employed by the 1
Rees Printing company, and Mr. I
Hoover had the pleasure of looking
through that well equipped printing
plant. Mr. and Mrs. LaTour own a
handsome modern home in Omaha
and Mr. Hoover enjoyed his visit
with them very much.
Among the relatives from out of
town who attended the funeral of
John Ossenkop last Tuesday after
noon were Mrs. Sarah Ossenkop and
daughter. Miss Ellen; Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Dcran and family; Mr. and
Mrs. Paul Judkins; Mr. and Mrs.
Johnson; Mr. and Mrs. Edward Os
senkop. all from the vicinity of Wal
ton and Eagle, and William Tegt
meyer and daughter. Miss Edith, of
Omaha. Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Parmelc
cf Plattsmouth, also drove up to at
tend the funeral.
The many friends of Mrs. A. J.
Cornish will be pleased to know that
she has returned from Mayo Brothers
in Rochester, Minn., where she went
for treatment and that she is much
improved in health and that her
trouble is not as serious as was re
ported. She expects to return to
Rochester for further treatment but
those of her friends here who saw
her say she never looked better. The
Courier is surely pleased to know
that Mrs. Cornish is gaining in
health and trusts that her recovery
may prove permanent.
