DEATH COMES
SUDDENLY TO
MRUUSSELL
MESSAGE FROM FCRD HOSPITAL
DURING NOON HOUR TELLS
OF HER DEMISE.
From Thursday's Daily.
The message from the Ford hos
pital in Omaha this noon announc
ing the sudden death of Mrs. Lew
Russell of this city, came as a heart
breaking shock to the members of
the family and the friend3 who had
thought her to be showing all pos
sible improvement following her op
eration Monday morning.
Mrs. Russell has been very poorly
for some time and suffering from
gall stones, from whicli it was found
necessary to have an operation per
formed in the hope of giving her re
lief and she was taken to Omaha oa
Sunday to enter the Ford hospital,
and the operation was performed the
following day. The ordeal was a
severe one and-the patient was under
the en'ects of the anesthesia for up
wards of three hours while th. op
eration was beins performed.
After the operation the patient
seemed to rally and had given the
brightest prospects of a speedy re
covery and her condition had been
looked upon as exceptionally good by
the attendants. Mr. Russell and the
two little sons. Louis and Charles,
were in Omaha yesterday and visit
ed the mother and wife and found
her apparently doing nicely and the
announcement of her death came
with the force of a great blow to
the bereaved family.
During the years of her residence
here Mrs. Russell made many friends
who will share with the sorrowing
husband and children and the o'her
relatives the deep grief that this
event has brought to them. Of a
very pleasant and lovable disposition
Mrs. Russell had endeared herself to
all with whom she had come in con
tact. Mr. Rusell and Clans Speck
departed this ife'temoon for Omaha to
make arrangements for bringing the
bodv here.

LEGION ACTIVE ON
NEW CLUB ROOMS
Ex-Service Men will Labor Together
Re-Wiring, Papering and Im
proving the New Home.
From Thursday's Daily.
The Executive committee of the
American Legion met in regular
monthly session last night, at which
time numerous proposals for improv
ing the club rooms which the post
has recently acquired over the Ne
braska (las and Klectric office, were
introduced and acted upon.
Cenerally speaking the policy will
be to improve the interior decoration
of the building, partition off the
front half for use as a reading and
smoking room. provide numerous
needed facilities in the rear room,
including gymnasium equipment and
kitchen uteiwls.
The front room will be rewired,
newly papered and suitable curtains
provided for the windows, this mat
ter being left in the hands of the
Legion Auxiliary members, who are
to share with the Legion boys the
privileges of meeting there.
A hard coal stove has been sup
plied through ti e generosity of Dr.
A. I). Caldwell, member of the Incen
tive committee and with it t lie front
room wi!l be kept comfortably war::i
at all times.
It is generally conceded that the
Legion was fortunate in securing n
lea.re on these desirable rooms, which j
ire most centrally located and well:
adapted to club room purposes.
Some furnishings have already
.
been purchased and others are on the
way. Prevailing high prices make a
policy of conservatism imperative.
and the Executive committee is an-i
proving expenditures only after ma-i
ture deliberation. I
Work will be commenced tonight
rearranging the partitions and get-
ting the walls in readiness and all
members of the post who can are
urged to be present and lend assis
tance, so that the burden may not
fall heavily on the shoulders of a
few. There will be someone present
jeach evening to direct the work in

CHRISTIAN ENDEAV
ORS ENJOY SELVES
Last Evening.
From Thursday's Ially.
Last evening the young people of
the Intermediate Christian Endeavor
of the Presbyterian church held a
ery interesting meeting at the
church parlor and which was rather
unique as it was known as a "Hobo"
party and while none of the genuine
"hoboes' were present the members
of tli society came attired for an
occasion of this kind. It was a very
spectacular crowd and some of the
members were so well disguised in
their novel costumes that their iden
tity was not solved even by their
closest friends. All the games were
entered into most heartily by the
young people and produced much
merriment. The hobo part they did
i not have to play was the asking for
a "handout", as this feature of the
evening had been prepared by their
ellieient and well loved leader. Miss
Clara Weyrich. assisted by Miss Es
tella Baird, and consii-ted of a real
treat.
At an hour a little later than us
ual, thoh happy young people left the
sc-euo f merriment, feeling sure they
had had a Jolly good time in the
unique and pleasant party arranged
for them.

From TliursJav's iiaily.
The League of Women held its us

in the auditorium of the library.
Mrs. George B. Mann, the chair
man, called for suggestions and it
was decided to have a "question box"
into which any one was privileged to
drp questions in which she was es
pecially interested and wished to hear
discussed, thus enabling the program j
committee to arrange future pro
grams of interest to all.
Mrs. F. B. Shopp-as leader of dis
cussions upon current events, dwelt
especially upon the religious tenden
cies of our country's leader as a hope
ful sign of wise administration of na
tional affairs. She also reviewed an
article in which was deplored the
inconsistences of dress as seen in the
business world.
Miss Marie Kaufmann, the secre

"Better Speech for Better Ameri

public schcools next week.
Miss C. T. Peacock next favored
us with a pleasing piano solo, great

Mrs. Mann explained fully the
"Espionage Act'' and urged the

REFORMS THAT
WILL CHECK FIRES
A Little Foresight or.d Care and Lis
tening to Instructions of State
Fire Marshall Will Save Lcg3
The inspectors of the state fire
warden's otlioe who have visited the
city in the pas: few weeks have
pointed out many ways in which fire
dangers can be eliminated and the
proper observance of tliee suggestion.-;
a nd recommendations will cause
the saving of vain regrets over the
loss of property and perhaps life
through neglect.
There are a great many things
that seem small and insignificant but
which are the causes a great many
times of dangerous fires. The accu
mulation of waste pp.pir and rubbish
around the home or business house
is a constant invitation to fires that
do much damage and the piling up
of ahes in the interior of a build
ing is another fruitful source of fires
that wipe out hundreds and smue
t:i!i"s thousands of dollars worth of
property.
Another of the tilings that the fire
rnar.'-'hal ha-- laid stress on is that of
the defective" wiring of houses and
buildings, and too much care cannot
be exercised in regard to this fire
0. anr.er. Frequent inspections by the
state official- is good for the pro
perty owners if they will take head
of the suggestions made and will
save- a correspondingly heavy loss
in preventing loss by fires.
In regard to the keeping of gas
oline and coal oil or kerosene in sep
arate and distinct cans the law is
clear; all cans containing gasoline
i:ui:t be red in color and distinctly
stamped with the name of the con
tents. The penalty for violation of this
prevision of ihe law is very severe
and failure to hav ecans marked and
of the proper color is made punish
able Ly a fine of not more than $50
for each and every offence or by im
prisonment in the county jail for not
to exceed thirty days or both fine
and imprisonment. The location cf
gasoline containers near business
houses and residences is also strongly
condemned and during his stay here
the inspector has made a number of
changes in the location of gasolfne
containers that had been maintained

Rev. H. 0. Nash of Greensboro, N. C,
Speaking at St. Luke's Church
Thursday and Friday.
From Friday's Dally.
Those who attended the preaching
mission at St. Luke's church on last
evening felt amply repaid in the
splendid sermon delivered by Rev.
H. O. Nash of Greensboro. North
Carolina, who is in the city to speak
during the mission of the nation
wide campaign.
These services will be continued
over this evening and Rev. Nash
will speak again this evening at 7:45

oners and the general public should
avail themselves of the opportunity
of hearing his message of the church
and its actiivties.
The nation wide campaign has
stimulated to the fullest extent the
life of the church and the mission
carries to the members individually
the responsibility that is theirs as a
part of the church to perform.
Father W. S. Leete, rector of St.
Luke's is extending an invitaion to
the public to attend these services
that are of untold value to the com
munity. W. B. A. OF THE

Plattsmouth review No. 54 of the
W. B. A. of the Maccabees held their
regular monthly meeting at the home
of Mrs. Emmons Ptak, which was at
tended by a very large number of
the membership. The ladies have
had a decided increase in their mem
bership in the past few months and
find that the matter of the meeting
place of the review has become a
question upon which they must take
action. Heretofore the ladies have
been meeting at the home of the
members but the large membrship
has made this impossible in the fu
ture and the ladies decided to seek
a regular meeting place in one of
the halls of the City.
The election of officers for the
year resulted in the following being
selected:
Commander Mrs. Emmons Ptak.
Lieutenant Commander Mrs. Bir
die Richards.
Past Commander Mrs. Emma Mc

LARGE CROWD PRESENT AT
ELKS DANCE LAST NIGHT
From Saturday's DaiJjr.
One of the largest crowds ever as
sembled on the dance floor at the
Elks club was present last night at
the bi-weekly dance given for mem
bers and their families. Music was
furnished by Holly's Syncopating
Quintette and dancing pep was at
high water mark. It is said that
one dance ran fully 45 minutes and
still the dancers evidenced a desire
for further encores.
With an increasing membership,
the Elks will soon be confronted
with the problem of enlarging their
dance floor and lodge room, or it
will prove inadequate to hold the
crowds attending the meetings and
social functions held there.
