From Thursday's. Daily
The welcome to the new year of
1925 was given in a very whole
hearted manner in this city and
while the occasion lacked the fea
tures that usher in the new year in
the large cities it gave the residents
an opportunity of enjoying a few
hours cf frolic and fun as the new
year came on.
A large part of the population
were present at th dance given by
the Plattsmouth volunteer fire de

PEACE REIGNS SUPREME
From Thursday's Daily
The New Year's day as far as po
lice circles are concerned is one of
the most peaceful in the history of
the city and nothing to mar the
peace and serenity of the day was
noted. Chief of Police llenrichsen
had a number of very nice and warm
cells awaiting for some occupant,
but they remained empty and the
chief was able to enjoy a quiet day.
Last evening the night police were
on the alert for any wrongdoing
that might be going on but found
nothing of a serious nature in the
ushering in of the glad new year.
One young man was gathered into
the folds of the law for using rather
leud and profane language on the
street but was allowed to go later
with the warning to be careful of his
language in the future.

and a real social time was enjoyed
by all of the party. Games and con
tests and other social features mark
ed the passing of the hours that were
speeding away the old year and mak
ing way for the coming season. A"t
11 o'clock the refreshment commit
tee was called upon and served very
real treat to the members or the
party and were enjoyed to the utmost
by everyone.
At the Hearing approach of the
midnight hour the young people all
: prepared new year resolutions along
the lines of their church activities,
which were passed around and read
by the members of the party and
showed some very inspiring resolu

of the meeting and gave a very in
teresting talk on the inspiration for
the new year in the church and its
various societies and concluding with
'the nraver for the coming yeaT as

PRETTY LEAN YEAR
From Friday's Daily
The record in the marriage license
department of the county judge's of
fice for the year 1924 shows that as
far as the matrimonial knot tying in
Cass county is concerned the past
year, it was a decidedly lean twelve
months.
In the past twelve months. County
Judge Beeson issued only 37 licenses
which is the lowest record ever made
in the office. The eugenics marriage
law of the state which attaches a
proviso that the applicants must
wait ten days before securing their
license, has played havoc with the
marriage records in the border coun
ties of the state as all report heavy
losses in the fees from licenses.
When the youth and maiden decide
to become united in marriage in 99
cases out of 100 they want the job
performed without delay and hasten
over into our neighboring state of
Iowa where there is no time limit
and you can be "hitched" whenever
the spirit moves you. The young
people of the county show that they
have the true spirit of independence
and can get around the entangle
ments of the law that the Nebraska
legislators sought to force onto them.
ENTERTAINS FOR FRIENDS

honor of a few of the friends who
are here from their school work for
the holidays. The home was very
pleasantly arranged for the occasion
and the party of young men enjoyed
to the utmost the pleasant hospi
tality that was afforded them. The
members of the party were Howard
and Harry Dwyer, Raymond Rebal,
Jack McCarty, Raymond Bookmeyer,
CharleB EjrabergT, Fred J. Warren,
Otto and Fred Trilety.

OUT OF CITY
LARGE NUMBER OF RESIDENTS
IN SOUTHERN PART WISH
TO WITHDRAW.
LARGE SECTION IS INVOLVED
Land in Question Located Near the
"Horn" at the Extreme South
ern Bonndry of City.
Frrm Friday's Daily
This morning an action was filed
in the office of the clerk of the dis
trict court by Attorney A. L. Tidd,
appearing for the plaintiffs, in which.
John H. Wiles, Albert Murray. Anton
Hula, Mrs. Lucinda Brittain. George
E. Perry, Ida F. Reynolds. N'iley R.
Wiles and Julius A. Pitz ask that
their real estate, now a part of the
city of Plattsmouth. be set outside
of the corporate limits of the city.
This property is located in the
southern portion of the present Fifth
ward of the city and is a very large
section of land extending from near
Bryant street to the city limits and
lying between Lincoln and Chicago
avenues, constituting a large part of
the present fifth ward.
The plaintiffs in their petition
alb ge that the property in question
consists of land that is used exclu
sively for agricultural and horticul
tural purposes, that it derives no
benefit from being a part of the cor
porate body of the city of Platts
niouth and has no sidewalk benefits
or polite protection from the city of
Plattsmouth and should therefore be
set out of the city and be made a
part of Plattsmouth precinct.
The case will be contested by the
city in order to prevent such a large
portion of the property being set
aside and the case will be one of the
grfcaU-'&t interest to the resident oi
the city as a large amount of taxes
is derived from the property by the
city each year and will make a mater
ial difference in the taxation valua
tion of the city.
SKATING POND IS OPENED
From Thursday's !ayv
Last evening "Rosedell." the skat
ing pond that has been arranged for
the use of the residents of this com
munity by 15. A. Rosencrans. was
opened to the public even though it
has net quite reached the stage of
perfection that is desired by the pro
moter, but in response to the insist
ent demand of the public that there
be a place of this kind in this city.
The new skating pond is located
in the small draw just north of the
former T. E. Parmele residence on
Chicago avenue and is well adapted
to use as a place of this kind. The
promotor has had the natural draw
of the valley that extends through
the property enlarged by grading and
erected a large dam at the east end
of the draw that will hold the wat
er and permit the creation of a good
sized skating pond that will be per
fectly safe for the use of the public
and which will be placed in the best
of shape after the pond has been in
use for a few days.
Mr. Rosencrans has net consider
able trouble in getting the amount
of water that he desired into the pond
for the opening, as the well at the
place has lost the greater part of
its water, and the securing of city
water there has been a real problem,
as it is a long way from the nearest
fire hydrant and which would allow
it to be filled with the use of fire
hose.
Finally in order to give the com
munity a skating pond, Mr. Rosen
crans decided to go ahead with his
plans that he had almost given up
and securing two sections of garden
hose, started the task of filling the
pond, and which will require tome
time to get to the full capacity de
sired. Last evening the pond was thrown
open and several dozen of the young
sters were out early in the evening
to enjoy the new pond and watch
the process of filling that is going
on. The opener was free for all, but
in the future, in order to defray the
expense of the work that has been
done at the pond a small fee will be
charged.
MILD WINTER WEATHER
Despite the doleful predictions of
the weather man for another visita
tion of the extremely cold weather of
last week, the New Year brought
with it a much higher temperature
as well as a very liberal blanketing
of snow that covered the ground and
added to the joys of those who would
enjoy coasting and sleighing, but not
appealing particularly to the auto
owner.

OF HIGHWAYS
Season for Doing: Something: Toward
Better Reads Will Be Heie Soon
and Should Have Action.
The opening of the cprinir season
will bring with it the nppor'.unity of
; duiiig something in the way of r.id
works that will give the resident-
j of this county better highways and
J this will be the appropriate time to
move in the dire c tion of pf rrriar.cn f
! roads that will not be subject to th
: various changes of weather anil
which will be possible w h- n tny
are needed the most.
Experiences of the past mouth
here in Cass county have pointed the
way to the need of a modern road
svstem that would insure graveled .r
i other forms of roads that could be
'.used in the winter and wet weather
las well as the hot days of summer
instead of the dirt roads that are
all right as long as weather con
ditions are good but which are prac
tically impassible for travel many
weeks of the year, as they have been
all during December in almost all
parts of the country.
The weather conditions make it
impossible for the road nun to work
the roads and the very bet of dirt
roads in a few days of bad weather
soon get cut up and bumpy as wt-Il
as in the rainy season becoming !
muddy that travel is impossible-, and
these features the permanent toad
removes.
Travelers from the north tell of
many miles of gravel roael that ex
tends from the Canadian borde-r elown
into our own state and then thy
strike the stretches of th main high
way that are without the treatment
of stone or gravel and begin to real
ize what the modern permanent road
way mean to a community.
As has been shown in our own
vicinity the graveh.J roads are- doing
the business, as Otoe county has
found out and their experience i-hould
be heeded by the Cass county p-o-ple
in making up their road program
for the ensuing year. In looking
into the good road program the citi
zens should see that gravel beds and
pits are opened up that can be de
pended upon to supply the material
that will be needed and save the
heavy cost that would come from
having to make long hauls with th
gravel from outside points.
The K. T. highway that already
has received attention from other
counties in graveling should be ma'le
into a permanent road as soon as
possible and in which the aid of the
federal government could b" pecureel
that would help out the- county and
the precincts and towns through
which the highway parses.
