way South of This City.
From Thursday's Daily
Last evening Floyd Fulton, who
is engaged in working at the home
of George W. Snyder, west of My
nard. was going home in advance of
the approaching storm, he was the
victim of a very serious auto acci
dent on the federal highway just
south of the C. E. Cook farm.
Mr. Fulton had seen a car ap
proaching as lie neured the small
culvert that is located at this point,
he turning out to allow the other
car to pa?s and in doing so struck a
section of the road that Lad been
newly graded up. The soft dirt fail
ed to hold the car and allowed it to
slide on to the edge of the culvert
with the result that the car turned
over into h small ditch.
The car was quite badly damaged
and Floyd was thrown up against
the windshield of the car which was
broken and from the flying glass the
young man sustained a number of
very severe cuts on the arm.
Mr. Fulton was not put out of
commission entirely, however, and
was able today to be looking after
part of his work, considering the
seriousness of the accident lie feels
fortunate that he was not more fee
riously injured.
WOULD
WORK THE PRISONERS
From Thursday's Daily
Sheriff E. P. Stewart has an Idea
that he believes would save the
county a sum of money, furnish ex
ercise for the enforced guests of tho
sheriff and also help out in the jani
tor work around the court house and
jail in the way of cutting grass and
cleaning up the premises. Sheriff
Stewart states that this would
much better for the prisoners at this
time cf the year especially ar.3 keep
them in better health by giving Eieni
pome exercise instead of bein.--coa-
Btanlly confined in the Jail. The la
"bor of the men would prove of ad
vantage to the county and relieve
the janitor at the court house of a
part of the burden of his work.
The prisoners themselves have of
ten asked to be able to get cut and
do some small outdoor taska that
would give them a chance to get
fresh air and exercise and the sher
iff believes that this would be a
mighty good thing for all concerned.
Those who are in jail for small of
fenses are not likely to make their
get away and can be trusted to carry
out the tasks assigned to them.
The matter should be called to
the attention of the county commis
sioners at their next meeting ani
some action secured in the matter.

ONE OF THE BEST
IN A LONG TIME!
Very Large Number of the Residents

and Weather Ideal.
From Thursday's Paily
The ideal summer weather that
prevailed yesterday for the monthly

the bargains through the well plac
ed and arranged advertising, did a
rushing business.
At a number of the business houses
during the afternoon it was impossi
ble almost to get into the stores, so
heavily were they crowded and the
clerks were kept on the rush from
the noon hour on to evening in al
most every store of the city.
This bargain daj crowd seemed
to be snapping up the splendid offer
ings of the merchants in all lines of
trade, clothing. groceries. ladies
ready to wear, dry goods, shoes and
hardware being carried out in large

reports as one of the most interest

covering the necessity of education
of the public along tooth health
knowledge enjoyed. Dr. Cummins
states that the new ideas and
thoughts at the convention pointed
to many changes in the dental prac
tice in the next few years which
would dace this profession on an
even higher plane than it has occu
pied. Greater strees will be laid on
the co-operation of the general pub
lic in watching and preventing many

LAND THE 1926
LEGION CONVEN-
TION FOF
Splendid Esprit de C--rps Puts Platts
rnouth on the Map at Pirtriet
Meeting; in Falls City
From Fridaj's Paily
"Buddies Plattsmouth wants you
in 1S26:"
This was the message broadcast
at Falls City yesterday at the First
Congressional district Legion con
vention and backed up by a brand
of enthusiasm never before equale 1
in local post annals, the mes-ago
met with a wholehearted re-.eption
ca the part of Legionairts from all
over the district, as the only oppos
ing bidder was hopelessly snowed
under on the substitute motion of
fered being called to a vote.
The one big asset in putting
Plattsmouth on the map was the
drum and bugle corps, comprising
some sixteen of the membership. Ar
riving in Falls City at 1 o'clock,
the beys stepped out of their cars
into the parade, and their music was
greeted ty cheers a!! along the line
of march. Accompanying them was
the Plattsmouth delegation, bearing
the post colors and banners further
setting forth our claims to the 192G
convention.
The streets were packed and jam
med, there being an unusually large
number of people there for the dedi
cation of the fine new Richardson
county courthouse, and everywhere
the Plattsmouth message was well
received.
Following the general parade and
pending the commencement of the
dedication ceremonies, the boys ren
dered several numbers, and after the
dedication took over the ball diam
ond between innings of the Falls
City-Schubert game for a parade
around the field that drew forth
generous applause. Later a Platts
mouth parade was staged on Main
street, behind which a number of
the. more friendly delegations fell in
line. Bv evening, Plattsmouth was
the by-word of tne convention and
it appeared certain the vote would
be almost unanimous.
At the supper hour at Stanton's
lake, the Plattsmouth plates were
placed in the hands of every "buddy"
in the mess line.
Then came the general business
session presided over by Department
Adjutant O'Connell, and when "the
time and place" matter was brought
up, two Legionaires and Mr. C. C.
Wescott, president of the Ad club,
delivered the message of welcome to
the convention. Nehawka moved a
substitute motion to take the 1926
convention there, but besides their
own delegation, only a few scatter
ing hands were raised in the large
turnout of Legionaires. Then the
Plattsmouth motion went over with
a bang and after a word of thanks
by Commander Holly, the drum and
bugle corps cut loose again, being
joined by the corps from Tecumseh,
and staging a real demonstration.
Nearly thirty members from the
post here were present at the meet-
ins and in addition several of the
business men went down to see the
proposition put over, and to gain
first-hand information of the mag
nitude of a gathering such as Platts
mouth will be called upon to enter
tain next year.
In addition to speaking on behalf
of our bid for the convention. Father
George Pierce, the local post Chap
lin, offered the invocation at the
opening of the evening session, and
also had one very amusing story told
on him by Adjutant O'Connell.
Falls City put up some real en
tertainment for the Legion guests,
and lived up to their every promise
made at Auburn last year, as Platts
mouth will do. when the convention
comes here next May.
The besetting trouble of the cars
from here was tire trouble and al
most every car making the trip had
from one to three or more "flats"
which served to dampen the ardor
of the occupants, but the 8G-mile run
was made in good time withal, and
the morning sun had not yet broken
into bloom ere the last car was back
safely in the home garage and its
occupants pounding the pillow for
the few hours remaining before the
day's activities would again call
them forth. The real lucky one of
the bunch is Night Officer Clyde
Jackson, who won't have to show
his face on the job until six tonight.
As at all conventions, there was
some imbibing of the stuff prohib
ited by Volstead, but there was a
remarkable absence of rowdyism.
Members of the national guard unit
at Falls City assisted in directing
traffic and preserving order and
handled all difficulties in a manner
that was- productive of results, where
the hard-boiled tactics of less diplo
matic officers might have caused
trouble and much hard feeling. It
was a clean convention, ably man
aged and the post and business men
of Falls City who co-operated in
staging it are entitled to congratu
lations. Adserase your want in the Jour
nal for. results.

figure in this city.
The deatn of Mr. Williams occurred
in Omaha at the home of his daugh

short illness, as he was stricken with
two very s-idden strokes of paralysis
that has fcr several days left him in
critical stu-pe and gave no hopes of
his recovery.
The deceased was nearing his
eightieth year and has resided in
Piatsmouth for more than forty
years, coming here as a young man
and for yenrs was employed as deliv
eryman for the firm of Zuckweiler &

has been gradually failing in health
and after the removal of the daughter
and family to Omaha he has made his

death and share with the family the
grief that his passing has occasioned.
The funeral services will be held
at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon from
the home in Omaha and the body
brought here for interment, the
funeral cortege coming direct from
Omaha to Oak Hill cemetery where

grandchildren.
"BAD ROY'
From Friday's Paily
Last evening the radio listeners
had the p.easure of hearing an ex
cellent program given from WOAW
at Omaha and the Excello quartet
gave several numbers, one of which.
Bad Boy," was dedicated to Fred
P. Busch ofl this city, the well known
manager oi' the Ladies Toggery. All
of the numbers were very fine and
well rendered. Just why this num-
ber in particular was selected to be
given as a tribute to Fred we can-
not understand as the genial mana
ger is far removed from the bad boy
class both by years and actions aa-
well.
