CLOSES UP WORK
AS OVERSEER OF
THE COUNTY FARM
J. H. Tarns Files Last Report and
is Now Free Agent Made a
Splendid Success.
From Thursday's Dally.
On Monday J. H. Tarns, for the
past fourteen years superintendent
of the Cass county farm, closed up
his work and presented his final re
port to the board of commissioners
and stepped down and out as the
head of the farm after years of most
faithful service to the people of Cass
county.
When Mr. Tarns assumed charge
of the farm in 1908 it, was one of the
old time county institutions that re
ceived little or no attention and to
be sent to it to live was not a little
worse than a good jail sentence and.
not half the accommodations of a
good jail, while the property around
the farm was valued at $1,470, and
the general conditions far from what
would be considered sanitary around
the buildings.
Mr. and Mrs. Tarns labored very
diligently with their task and had
the old building in good shape when
it was destroyed by fire and was re
placed by the present fine building
that houses the wards of the county.
Mr. Tarns, with his years of experi
ence in farm work soon had the
farm producing a great deal of the
stuff needed to feed the residents
and as time progressed he brought
forth a handsome surplus for the
county at the end of each year. I
To show Just what fine shape the
farm Is in today we print the figures
of the last report of Mr. Tams, of the
date of March 1st.

Here she met and married Clifford

Sister Cecil gave her life to Christ
when a small girl of thirteen, while

the preaching of Brother C. E. Cob
bey. She has been a true Christian
all of her life and entirely innocent
of worldly things. Her life always
spoke for the love she had for the
churchT home and loved ones. Hav
ing been under the care of a physi
cian for a number of years and hav
ing suffered much, she bore it all
patiently and it seemed to have a
purifying effect on her and to give
her a beautiful philosophy of life?
She was always kind and cheerful
and ready to do any task assigned
her. While a member of the Wood
bine church but a short time, she
won the hearts of all who knew her.
Her very presence was a benediction.
She will be greatly missed by her lit
tle boys and girls in the primary
repartment of the Bible school.
She leaves to mourn her untimely
going a loving husband to whom she
has been a real companion, an aged
father and mother to whom she has
been a great source of comfort, two
sisters, Mrs Orpha Schell of Tope
ka. Kansas; Mrs. Clara Miller of Fort
Collins, Colorado. Two sisters and one
brother having preceded her to the
Great Beyond. Beside these a father-in-law
and mother-in-law, Mr. and
Mrs. Isaac Cecil and their two child
ren, Harley and Florence. Also a
great host of friends and relatives
who extend their sympathies in this
sad hour.
We loved her, yes we loved her
But the angels loved her more;
And they have swetly called her
To heaven's shining shore.
The pearly gates were open;
A gentle voice said "Come,"
And with a farewell spoken.
She calmly entered home.
CARD OF THANKS
We desire to express our most
grateful appreciation of the kindness
shown to lis during the illness of
our beloved wife, mother, daughter
and sister, and for the tender sym
pathy in the loss of our loved one.
Also we wish to thank the friends
and neighbors, the Royal Neighbors,
the Sheet. Metal Workers' union and
Burlington shops for their floral re
membrances. Paul Bartick and fam

HIGH WINS FIRST
HEAT IN WALK
Defeat Old Time Enemies, Nebraska
City High, in State Tourna
ment at Lincoln Today.
From Thursday's Dai?.
The first game of the class B bas
ket ball tourney held at Lincoln
resulted in Plattsmouth High being
continued in the class as one of the
opening round winners by the score
of 15 to 7 over their age old enemies,
the Nebraska City quintet.
Of the three times these teams
have met, Plattsmouth has won two
games and lost one.
The first half of the game was
very close and the score stood 7 to
7 at the end. but in the second half
the Plattsmouth boys proceeded to
get busy and garnered a number of
baskets from their opponents that re
sulted in the victory.

the field this year as has ever gone
forth to represent the school in a
state tournament and barring a
streak of bad luck our boys should
be in when the finals are played.

ed for the making of an accurate re
turn. Application for such extension

fy the return.
