WIFE FINDS
FEARS WERE
GROUNDLESS
MRS. A. W. HO LIME YE R WRITES
THAT SEARCH TOR HUS
BAND A MISTAKE.
Following the visit to this city last
Saturday of Mrs. A. W. Hollmeyer of
Kansas City, in which she was en
gaged in searching for her husband,
the facts have developed that the
wife let her anxiety get the better of
her good judgment in her fears as to
his whereabouts.
A letter has been ' received from
Mrs. Hollnieyer at Kansas City In
which she states that since returning
home she has received word from
her husband and that he is safe and
sound and her fears as to his leav
ing were without any real founda
tion. The fact that "Jim," as h was
well known here, has been located
will be very pleasant news to his
many friends who have been some
what worried as to the fate of their
old friend and associate as it thought
that perhaps he had wandered away
while suffering from the effects of
his severe gassing in the world war,
and had met with misfortune. Those
who knew Mr. Hollmeyer best were
of the opinion that only a case of this
kind would cause him to leave with
out any intimation as to his where
abouts to the wife and consequently
the word that he is located will be
very gratifying to his many friend3
in this city. .
The wife states that letters sent to
her had been misdirected and after
being in the mail for sometime were
finally sent to the proper address
and where she received them and
bringing much relief to her regard
ing the safety of her husband.
It had seemed strange that a man
of the apparently high standing of
Mr. Hollmeyer would dssert the wife
as she had Etated and the facts have
borne out the confidence cf his
friends here that he wid b&pard
from in the rourso cf tl-r.e unless he

'
F'ora Tnurprtov'" Ihit ' r
A very pleasing spirit f sociabil
ity prevailed last, evening.. at the
"New Way" club get-totther party
at the M. W. A. hall and which was
also well, attended by residents of
the city as well as the newer resi
dents who are now making ' Platts
mouth their home. It has been the
desire of the promoters of these meet
ings to have them afford the means
of all residents of the city meeting
and becoming better acquainted and
to this end they have devoted much
effort.
As the guest3 entered the hail they
were tagged with a slip bearing their
name md which made the acquaint
anceship easier and without the for
mality of the introductions that
would mark a more formal gather
ing. After the members of the party
had gathered they assembled around
the piano and a good old community
sing was enjoyed with Mrs. "E H.
Wescott leading the singers and Mr.
Wescott at the piano. It was some
time before the members of the party
tired of this feature and not until
they were all hoarse from their ef
forts. Little Charlotte Field also
sang a folo number and the other
members of the party hummed the
refrain and which added to the mu
sical portion of the program.
Dancing was indulged in from
9: ST) on to the close of the evening
and 'very much enjoyed by the. young
people until a late hour.
During the evening a luncheon
was served by the City" cafe in the
ante room of the hall which com
pleted a very delightful evening for
all who were fortunate enough to be
present.
