RELIGIOUS LIFE
OF COMMUNITY
JS VERY GOO
CITY OF PLATTSMOUTH HAS
CHURCHES REPRESENTING
MANY DENOMINATIONS
BEAUTIFUL CHURCH EDIFICES
Strong and Able Ministry Carries
Messfig-e of the Christian Faith
to Residents of City.
From Friday's Dally
One of the factors that makes for
the betterment of a community of
homes and law abiding citizenry is
that of the church the religious
feeling that is the most beautiful
portiou of the human being finding
its expression in the organized
churches of the nation
The city of Plattsniouth is very
fortunate in having in its midst a
very large and active expression of
the religious 1 if a in the churches of
the city which number many faiths,
carrying the message to their mem-
bers of the teaching of the Master of
the world as they see it.
The first settlers here in the early
fifties brought with them from their al Gas & Electric Corporation and
homes in the east the inspiration many of its subsidiaries, including
of the teachings of the Christian the Nebraska Gas & Electric Corn
faith, that strong belief that in : pany. Iowa Service Company, Lee
the face of adversity or privation re-. Electric Company , and Maryvilk
mained unshaken and permitted these ' Electric Light & Power Company,
hardy pioneers to carry on their work i When Mr. Schaddelee was 11 years
of nation building in the midst of old his father and mother with their
the then wild prairies of the great!
west ard to bring the Word with 1
them into the new homes, to gather ;
the early settlers together in the i
bonds of worship that was to fit them 1
fvr the purpose of creating a new J
home i:i the mid.t of the frontier life, j
From the humble assemblages of i
the pioneers of the their Lome3 to J
worship grew tne growth or the
church in this locality fved as tha
community became more thickly set-J
lieu ministers oi tne cnurcnes coin
ing westward established here the
first religious institutions that have!
in the intervening yeara grown
trong in membership and active in!
the affairs of the great state that !
was carved out of the one time pos-:
session of the Kingdom of France. j
In all these years the various j
faiths have grown, friendly with;
h other, the members tolerant of
the beliefs of their neighbors and;
c :. V in their own viewpoint striding;
to give the greatest strvice to man-'
kind.
There are at this time eleven re--
irrious denominations active in the '
life of the city a::d each with live :
and virile organizations that aid in ;
the betterment of the community.
The Episcopal church was. here in . the older children, was obliged tc
the late territorial days of Nebraska , forego school in order to help support
and S. Luke's church building here, i the family.
at 3rd and Vine streets, was erected! Unfamiliar with the language and
in 1SC7 and still serves the residents , customs cf the new land, he obtained
of the parish as a house of worship ; his first job in a furniture factory in
although enlarged and modernized to; Grand Rapids, Mich., at $2 a week
keep pace with the times. Many have i After two years at that he decided
been received in baptism there, con-ithat he must have more education;
firmed and married within its walls ! so he obtained a job as office boy
and finally laid to rest with the last I for a Grand Rapids physician whose
services from this charming old time
church building and to many famil
ies of the community it represents a
store of tender memories. The ptes
ent rector of the church is Father
George D. Pierce, who has but re
cently arrived to carry on the work
here and who brings a great vitaliz
ng force to the church organization.
The Roman Catholic faith was al
so early in this locality as the mis
sionaries of this church were work
ing with the savage tribes long be
fore the coming of the white man
and their mission charges assisted in
blazing the way for the churches
that were to come. The first Roman
Catholic church occupied a site near
where Garfield park is now located,
but this was given up when in the
later years the present St. John's
church at 6th and Oak streets was
erected, a gift of John Fitzgerald,
pioneer railroad contractor, and his
wife. This church is a large and im
posing building and has faithfully
served the needs of the parish in the
many years that it has been in exist
ance. The church is now served by
Father Michael A. Shine, one of the
distinguished priests of the church
in the state and a learned scholar.
In the early nineties the large num
ber of members of the church of Bo
hemian nationality led to the desire
on their part to have a house of wor
ship of their own, where their lan
guage would be spoken and which
would be nearer their homes and
neighborly association, and accord
ingly the Holy Rosary parish was es
tablished and in 1S92 the beautiful
Holy Rosary church at 16th and
Pearl streets was erected and dedi
cated by the bishop of the diocese
and has since served the spiritual
needs of the residents of the west por
tion of the city who are members of
this faith. Father John Hancek is
the present rector here and has been
most successful in his work since
! coming to this city and particularly
, in the upbuilding of the church mem
bership.
I One of the first of the religious
faiths to penetrate the west was that
of the Methodist church and the First
Methodist church cf this city has
long been one of the landmarks of
the religious life of the community.
This church first formed in the gath
erings in the homes, was quick to
comprise an active membership in the
then new west and fur many yoai s
j the ir building en South 0th street,
I now occupied by Christ & Ghrist,
(sheltered the members of this faith.
i The strong and active work of the
members in support of their church
overcame the obsta:!-s of financial
stress that was the fate ot the church
cf early daj-s and tv. enty-live years
ago the church was able to erect the
present splendid building at 7th and
Main street where they l ave one cf
the best arranged iad equipped edi-
j fices in the city and one that is most
nctive in the life of the community,
hc.vicg a very large membership.

"Our policy in the United Light &

consider the character of service
rendered the public as of first im

cently. "The public is concerned first
with being adequately served, and
if so served the relations between
customers and the management of
the operating companies cannot be
otherwise than pleasant. It is the
recognition of this fundamental fact
in relation to public service that has
brought so large a measure of suc

Light & Power Company.
"It is our intent to carry this
policy into the relationships which
have just been established. We desire
to come in as close touch as possible
not only with the management of
subsidary operating companies but
through them to become acquainted
with as many of the customers of
those companies as is possible. The
policy will be to enter intimately into
the business life of every community
"The prosperity of a community

of the combined companies is the end
to which we all work."

SHOP PLANT HERE EMPLOYING

GREAT EFFICIENCY
COAGK tM m WORK CHIEFLY
These Departments of Coach and Re
pair SIicps I'ake a Real Record
fcr Their Output.
The plant of the Burlington rail
road in this city has in the many
years of its existence enjoyed an un
usual record of the amount and high
inality of the work that the men
employed there are turning out and
which has improved in all kiud3 of
onditions, even some that has tried
he management and men alike but
through which they have kept up
their record and their handiwork in
the building or repair of coaches or
efrigerator cars is among the very
btF.t that can be found in this great
-ystem.
That it is being accomplished every
lay is readily to be seen by anyone
who visit3 this greatest industry of
the city and views the men in the
various departments at their labors,
ill performing some part in the great
jicchine that is providing the rolling
-lock for the railroad, either in the
aianufacture of material or the direct
building of the- cars that are to pass
jver the miles of steel rail that the
3urlington now owns from the Great
Lakes to the snow clad Rockies.
The shops here mark a definite
;.lace in the history of the Burling
oh and give to this city a groat share
n the romance cf the pienec-r rail-.-oad
days as it was here that the
Durlir.stoH & Missouri River railroad
.vas first brought into existence and
ivj ftrt tvkage Tft of the. Mis
souri river laid that was to be fol
lowed westward to where the moun
tain ranges lift their lordly heads.
It was hero that the first work of
preparing the material and rolling
-tcek for the-new railroad was com
menced and since the late seventies
..he Burlington has been receiving
from the Plattsmouth shops a large
part of their work. In later years,
as the railroad has expanded in size,
Vther shops have come as a natural
sequence, to assist in the work of
nring for the operation of the roll
ing stock, but these shops have con
tinued to keep to the task of giving
the railroad real results in the out
put of the toil of the men whe have
een employed here under the effici
ent handling of Supt. Baird and the
iflicers of the mechanical depart
ment. In the turning of the wheel of
time there has been many changes
in the shops here, but in all of these
there has been no material decrease
jf the number of men employed, al
though the company in making
changes for convenience and effici
ency has shifted departments from
one locality to another they have
maintained practically the same num
ber of employes; by concentrating
other lines of work at points where
they have made changes. This is
shown by the record of the number
of employes at this same season of
the year for the past several year3.
In 1321, 361 men were employed
here; in 1922, 461; 1924, 466, and
at this time, 44G, showing very little
change in the actual number of men
employed although in these years
there were withdrawals of several
departments and the substitution of
more of the high class coach work
and the refrigerator car work at this
point. The payroll for March, 1924,
in the mechanical department here
was $53,172 with the 466 employes,
while for Kebruary of this year it was
$64,000 with 450 employes.
The visitor at the shops Is much
impressed with the splendid manner
in which the coach work is carried
on in that department. Here the
coaches and dining cars are practic
ally rebuilt, everything from the
trucks of the cars up being rebuilt.
These coaches are stripped of all ma
terial that cannot be reused and then
the carpenters come to construct
practically a new car as in many
cases there is little loft save the
frame of the coach. This is the
very highest kind of work and re
quires care and skill to carry out in
the proper manner.
There are at this time in the shop
four coaches that are being rebuilt
for the use of the Deadwood line,
the coaches forming a train that will
be operated on the Black Hills line.
These coaches are of the regulation
seventy foot length. Two coaches are
being rebuilt so as to form baggage
and mail compartments in one sec
tion of the coach, while a small
smoking compartment is arranged in
the other section of the car. The re
maining coaches are being arranged
to give an ample seating capacity for
; the use of the train in their regular
day coach, while In the center or
the car is being arranged a pleasant
smoking and card room for the flr3t
class passengers and the rear of the
S TORN
coach arranged with chairs so as to
form a small parlor car section, in
cluding the observation platform.
Work on these coaches is just being
started and the preliminary truck
and frame overhauling is being look
ed af-.cr preparatory to the high class
carpenter work that will be neces
sary before they can be turned over
to the painters and upholstering force

Resident of Near Nehavvka Taken in 1
Tow Yesterday by Sheriff for
Possession of Liquor.
From Thursday's Daily:
Yesterday afternoon Sheriff E. P.
Stewart and Deputy Sheriff Rex j
Young were out in the county seek
ing moist places where it was thought
that liquor cf more than the one-half
of one per cent strength might be
found, and visiting the vicinity of
Nahawka made a find.
The officers armed with search
warrants visited the residence of a
man named Lawrence in the vicinity
of Nehawka and there unearthed
some eight gallons of cooked home
brew that was still warm and which
contained the properties that would
have made many a foaming flagon of
good old beer had not the officers ar
rived ahead of the bottling period.
The owner of the brew was brought
to this city and this morning faced
the judicial machinery in the court
of County Judge A. II. Duxbury.
Oa hearing the complaint filed by
County Attorney Wr. G. Keick, the
defendant entered a plea of guilty to
the charge and was given the fine set
by law, 100 and costs, totallrg-t
$115.40, which was paid and the de
fendant sent on his way rejoicing.
EDWARD PATTERSON
UNDERGOES OPERATION
From Thursday's Dally
Yesterday at the Wise Memorial
hospital in Omaha, Edward Patter
son, son of Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Pat-j
tenion of this city, was operated on'
for a mastoid which he has suffered
from for several weeks, following
his recent 6ickness from cold and
grippe. It had been hoped that the
gathering in the head could be dis
sipated without the necessity of an
operation, but as the patient did not
improve it was decided that the op- i
eration would be necessary and ac
cordingly was performed yesterday.
The ordeal was a very severe one for
the young man but he has come thru
it in fine shape and at the latest re
ports from the hospital was doing
just as well as possible under the
circumstances and the attending
physicians are of the opinion that
tho operation was a complete success
and that the patient will in a few
days rally from the effects of the operation.
