ENTERTAIN FOlt FRIEND
From Friday's Daily
Last evening the Misses Mia and
Barbara Geringf entertained very
delightfully at their home on North
6th street at a 6 o'clock dinner for
Mrs. Frank II. Dunbar, who is soon
to leave for California to make her
home in the future. The charm of
the attractive Gering home was en
hanced by the spring flowers that
made a fine setting for the occasion.
Most every school demand Ja the
way of stationery, pencils and ink
may be had at the Sates Book and
Gift Shop. The very best grade of
kistoqr pope far ff per
look.
While there has been some Im
provement In agriculture, Norris
said it does not "justify the glowing
reports" being made by the govern
ment agencies on the subject. He
added:
"There is always a free circula
tion of money, and wages will re
main high as long as loans are free
ly made. But there will come a
time when the loans must be paid
and then we are liable to face a
panic"
The change in the police force of
the city that marks the transfer of
the chief of police office from William
Hinrichsen to A. It. Johnson, the
newly appointed chief, will take place
Sunday according, to the latest plans
of Mr. Johnson, and who will serve
in the capacity for the present term
of office.
Mr. Hinrichsen has been a member
of the police force for several years,
being appointed a member of the
force by former Mayor Johnson serv
ing as night police and for the last
two years as chief, one year of this
service being under Mr. Johnson and
one year under Mayor Sattler.
This office is one of the greatest
responsibifity and the position in not
one that tends to increase the popu
larity of the occupant of the offlc-e. as
the discharge of the duties of a police
officer is one that brings with it much
trouble and annoyance as the officer
is sometimes called upon to perl'orni
many very distapterul matters m
handling the office and especially in
making arrests sometimes that breaks
many warm friendships jthat perhaps
the officer may have enjoyed for
years.
Mr. Hinrichsen has served a period
of years in the police department and
has iu that time met with the usual
amount of kicks and protests, but
has given very faithful service in the
interest of the city and will be no'v
able to enjoy the peace and quietude
of the civilian life and not be wor
ried over the enforcement of the law.
T. B. TESTING BEGINS K0NDAY
The testing of cattle tn this pre
cinct for tuberculosis will com
mence Monday, May 4th. At this
time several precincts have already
teen tested and the work will be
continued until the entire county
haa been gone over. During the past
week those doing the te?!ing have
been working in Mt. Pleasant pre
cinct. When the herd of B. Wolph, south
west of town, w?.3 tested a short
time ago, about 25 per cent of his
animals were found to be affected
with this disease. Last week a car
of the diseased cattle were shipped
to Omaha and all were condemned
as far as being used for packing was
concerned. We understand there
39 head in the consignment.
It was quite a surprise to the
owner when this large number was
found to be Infected in his. herd and
he shipped them to market as soon
as possible. It was also a severe
blow as the loss amounted to a large
sum, but he was glad the fact was
discovered so that he may combat it
in the future. Nehawka Enterprise.
GET RID OF THAT BACKACHE!
RESIGNATION OF SOLICITOR
GENERAL BECK ANNOUNCED
Washington, April 30. The resig
nation of Solicitor General Beck, to
take effect upon the appointment of
a successor, was announced formally
today at the White House.
In his letter of resignation, Beck
told the president he would like to
remain until the present term of the
supreme court ends in June, but
added that "after the hard work of
the last four yeare I want to get a
good rest before resuming the prac
tice or my profession."
Plattsmonth People Point the Way.
The constant aching of a bad back,
The weariness, the tired feeling;
Headaches, dizziness, nervousness,
Distressing urinary disorders
Are often signs of failing kidneys
And too serious to be neglected.
Get rid of these troubles!
Use Doan's Tills a stimulant di
uretic to the kidneys.
Hosts of people lecommend Doan's.
This is a Plattsraouth case.
You can verify it.
Mrs. Maggie Kaufman, 62 4 S. 6th
street, says: "I felt weak and de
pressed and my housework was a
burden. Every move I made sent
sharp pains across my back and my
back was so sore I could hardly rest
at night. I became dizzy and had
headaches, too. My kidneys were
weak and acted irregularly. I used
one box of Doan's Pills and they
cured the trouble. It is very seldom
I need anything to stimulate my
kidneys."
Mrs. Kaufman is only one of many
Plattsmouth people who have grate
fully endorsed Doan's Pills. If your
back aches if your kidneys bother
you, don't simply ask for a kidney

From Saturday's Daily
The first event that marks the close
of the happy school days for the sen
iors of the high school was held last
evening at the Modern Woodmen hall
in the banquet tendered by the jun
lor class to the seniors who are in
the next few weeks to pass out of the
city schools. ,
Each passing year the juniors ar
range these pleasant gatherings in
honor of their associates and each
brings with it the enjoyment of social
features and the regret that comes
from the separation of the four years
association in the high school.
The junior class of 1925 can feel
well pleased with the wonderful man
ner in which they carried out their
part of the arrangements, as there
was nothng left out of the banquet
that could possibly add to the en
joyment of the members of the two
classes.
The hall was arranged In a very
beautiful manner and was one of the
attractive setings furnished for any
of the Junior-Senior banquets. The
walls and windows of the hall were
covered with shades of lavender
strips of the black crepe paper outlin
ing the walls into panels. The lights
of the hall were also shaded with
the lavender and cherry, the seniors
colors while at the windows bows of
cherry colored crepe paper added to
! the color scheme.
The tables were arranged in the
streamers of lavender and cherry
while the black candles were used in
the decorations most effectively and
presented a very rich and artistic
appearance.
The ceiling of the hall was entire
ly hidden by the green foliage and the
white blossoms of the early spring
time season whose perfume also add
ed to the charm of the scene.
The ladies of the Presbyterian
church had in charge the serving and
with their customed skill and grace
served a very dainty repast that fur
nished a happy start of the evening.
The menu was as follows:
Rappberry Sherbert
Chicken Supreme in Patties
Potatoes Parisenne
Buttered French Peas in Ramekins
Beef Rosettes
Hot Rolls Preserves
Pineapple and Pimento
Cheese Salad
Brick Ice Cream French Pasteries
Salted Nuts.
Coffee
While the ladies were serving the
banquet and the members of the two
classes paticipating in the enjoyabl-?
occasion the Muzzy orchestra of Oma
ha, gave a very delightful musical
program that added to the enjoyment
of all of the members of the party.
The toast list was presided over by
Carl Keil, president of the junior
class in his accustomed pleasing man
ner and who introduced the various
speakers of the evening with well
chc-sen and appropriate remarks.
The response for the freshmen
class who are now becoming soph
mores was given by Edgar Wescott
and who gave the impressions of the
lowerclassmej of tneir associates and
particularly the seniors of 1925.

juniors of 192G ami who v.i'1 have

The response or "signing off" for
the seniors was given by Dimian
Flynn ,the president of the seniors
and wa.i very cleverly given by the
able young man who has headed his
class in it& high school work.
The faculty of the school was hoard
from by Miss Irene Parli. who touch
ed on muD5 points of interest in the
school life of the past few years whoa
the boys and girls of the seniors have
been passing through school.
The congratulations of the board
of education was offered by Searl S.

usual pleasing manner and In which
he took several friendly and humor

From Thursday's Daily
With the coming of the paved
streets and other features of a real
up to date littlo city, the residents
of Weeping Water are to have a
community center , body in the form
of a commercial club.
The first meeting was held yester
day noon at the Rest haven hotel,
which has just recently been re
opened and which serves a long felt
want in that community. The meet
ing was attended by some fifty of the
business men and leading citizens
and a real live organization may be
looked forward to in the future for
the neighboring city.
Another meeting will be held in
the next few days to select officers
vnd arrange for the permanent or

the public eye.
