ENTERTAINS FOR
QUEENESTHERS
NEBRASKA CITY LADIES GUESTS
AT ONE OF MOST PLEAS
ANT OF MEETINGS
From Thursday's JTaiiy.
The members of Home chapter No.
lSy. Order of Eastern Star of this
city were the hostesses last evening
of a large delegation from the Queen
Esther chapter of Nebraska City,
and the occasion proved one of the
greatest pleasure to the members of
Loth organizations, and one very
largely attended, as some 175 were
present to take part in the banquet'
and sessions of the chapter.
The visitors from Nebraska City
tosether with a number from Union
arrived in the city shortly before 6
o'clock and were taken at once to
the Masonic temple where the ses
sions were held.
Members of the Home chapter had
provided a most tempting banquet
which was served at 6:30 to the vis
itors as well as members of the local
chapter and was one of the most suc
cessful of its kind ever held in the
city. The rooms of the Cass chap
ter Order of De Molay were used for
the banquet and arranged very ar
tistically with decorations of the
autumn leaves and flowers, making
a very charming scene for the won
derfui gathering. The banquet had
been assigned to a number of com
mittees the heads of the various
committees being, Mrs. A. J. Beeson,
Mrs. J. F. Wolff. Mrs. H. A. Schnei
der. Mrs. C. R. Frans. Mrs. Glen Per
ry, Mrs. W. F. Evers. Mrs. John
Wehrbein and Mrs. Julius Hall, and
with the skillful assistance of their
associates they prepared a feast that
would have suited the rr.ort dis
criminating. The menu of the even
ing was as follows:
Creamed Chicken
Mashed Potatoes Gravy
Cabbage Salad
Rolls Cranberry Jelly .
Pumpkin Pie Apples
Xuts -
jCoffee
During the banquet the Efiison
phonograph furnished a number of
vfry pleasing numbers that added to
the pleasure of the occasion.
Mrs. William Baird. worthy mat
ron of the Home chapter, presided
with becoming grace over the pleas
ant gathering and the visitors were
more than pleased with the very
clever manner in which the feast
was prepared and served.
At the close of the banquet the
sessions of the chapter were taken
up in the lodge room and the inita
tory work of the order conferred on
five candidates, Misses Nellie and
Angie McCarroll, Eva. Becker and
Mrs. Marion Barritt of Union and
Miss Dora Glenn of this city. The
officers exemplified the work in a
very impressive manner which was
given high commendation by the
members of the local chapter as well
as the visiting members.
The remainder of the evening was

very beautiful costume of georgette'

FAST TRAINS KAY
RUN THRU WINTER
Burlington Nos. 1 and 10 are Un
der Consideration Company
Finds Need for Tlicm
Prom Friday's Dally.
Whether the Burlington will dis
continue trains Xoi;. 1 and 10 for
the winter season is a question not
yet decided by the Burlington man
agement. Some time aeo this mat
ter was up for consideration and a
move was made to discontinue this
service, but so far no definite de
cision has been made in the matter.
It is said that these trains are
very needed on the lines east of the
river. No. 1 leaves Chicago for Den
ver at 5:30 p. m. and is a very pop
ular train from Chicago for western
Iowa and Nebraska points. It han
dles a great deal of traffic that
would overburden other trains if
No 1 were out of service. No. 10
eastbound, passing thru Lincoln
near the midnight hour, sees day
light in eastern Iowa first, and from
then on takes up a heavy part of
the Chicago-bound traffic.
If these trains were taken off
some substitute service would have
to be offered in Iowa and Illinois,
and in Nebraska it probably would
be necessary to run local trains thru
Oxford or McCook to give the serv
ice needed from Lincoln. Therefore
the saving would not be great.
No statement has been issued con
cerning the plans of the company in
regard to these trains, but it Will
not surprise many Burlington men
if they are left in service, provided,
of course, a strike does not disar
range service so that even greater
sacrifice in the way of travel con
veniences must be made.

EAGLE BOY WEDS
HIS MM NURSE
Romance that Sprang Up in Ft. Sher
idan Hospital Has Culmination
in Chicago Wednesday.
From Friday's rnlty.
On Wednesday, October 27th, at
Chicago. Clare L. Gardner, only son
of'The Beacon family, was united in
marriage fo Miss Nellie Carlson, cf
Des Moines, Iowa. We have not re
ceived details of the event at this
writing, biit as it war, scheduled to
occur, we have no doubt all is well.
The groom enlsted in Co. G, Fifth
Nebraska National Guard about two
weks after war was declared, and af
ter a few months in camp at Hast
ings, was sent to Camp Cody. N. M.,
where he remained for practically a
year. In June following he went
"over there" and after many experi
ences, was wounded in action on
November 1st, in the Argonne drive,
just eleven days before the Armistice
was signed. After several operations,
he was returned to the States and
taken to Fort Sheridan. 111., and was
discharged on September 1, a year
ago. after having spent 22 months
in the hospitals. Since his discharge
he has been taking vocational train
ing in Chicago, and of late has been
connected with a large real estate
ttrm.
Miss Carlson is an army nurse who
hurseel her husband through many
months of his illness. She likewise
received her discharge some time ago
and since has been in demand as a
nurse in Chicago. We have never
met the lady, but have every evi
dence of her sterling worth and char
acter. Her lofty patriotism and ten-
der ministration to wounded soldier
are alone sufficient Christian graces
to endear her to those who love the
boy. We heartily welcome her into
our household.
For the present they will live in
Chicago. Eagle Beacon.

SUFFERS DOUBLE
FRACTURE OF LEG
Icuis Svoboda, Left Half Back
High School Team, Injured
In Very Serious Manner
cf
ftorn Friday's Dully.
Last evening the high school foot
ball team was engaged in scrim
mage practice at the baseball park
with the American Legion team and
during the practice Louis Svoboda,
left half back of the high school
team, suffered the double fracture
of the right leg, one fracture just
below the knee and one just above
the ankle, and this injury spells
the retirement of this clever young
football player from the game this
season, if not for all time.
The two teams were working out
and the high school attempted an
end run and in doing so Iouis was
tackled by Frank Lewis of the le
gion team and both of the young i
men fell to the ground and as they j
fell, the other players heard the!
sound of the breaking bones of the j
leg or young Svoboda. and ran to j
his assistance as he lay helpless on j
the ground. The injured hoy was'
taken direct to the of!"es of a sur
geon where the bones were set and
it was not until "7:'.',0 that the in
jured boy was a Me to be taken home
havinj? required some two hours to
maV.r the setting of the injuries.
Th accident has come as a se
vere blow to the high school tesm,
not alone on account of the splen
did playing ability of the in
jured boy. but the deep affection
in which he was held by his associ
ates in the school. The loss Svobo
da, who has been the most effective
player on the high school team this
season will cripple the team very
much and with the prospect of the
game with Nebraska Citv on next
Friday there will have to
stiff work to develop a man

EDISON'S WITTY SAYING
Edion once waa asked if he did
J 2'ot attribute his success to inspira
tion. "No." said Edison, "I attribute
it to perspiration." Inspiration means
in this case awakening, creation of
i thoui-.ht ; perspiration means sweat
ling for hard work. It is a good
j many years since hard work was in
i vented, and while thousands of men
have tried to reach the Koal of suc
cess without it it still, stands in the
PUrcrt, ' positive way of meetinr with,
good success. If asked ab- r the
main cause of the success of rlner's
Bitter Wine, the late Joser Triner
would have given the sair 'nsv.er
as Edison. Today Trine Hitter
Wine i- a remedy known t. .iglmut
the United States and Canada as the
most reliable help in case of poor
appetite, constipation, headaches ami
other stomach troubles. And every
customer becomes its sincere propa
gator by merely stating the facts
of sure help. Mr, Henry Niemeyer
wrote us for instance from Larch
wood, la., on Sept. 27: "One of our
neighbors told me how Triner's Bit
tor .Wine freed him entirely cf hi
pases and sour stomach. Send it as
soon as you can." Ask your drug
gist or dealer in medicines also about
other Triner's remedies and their
excellent results.
CARD OF THANKS

neighbors for their kindness to us
and for the beautiful floral offerings
to our loved one and for the deep
sympathy shown to us at the time
of the death of our loved wife and
mother. Robert Bruce Smith and
