LET CITY JOIN
IN DEDICATION
OFJNFIRMAPiY
Occasion of the Formal Acceptance
Of Nebraska Masonic Home In
firmary September 5.
From rrklay's lai;
The time that will elapse before
the formal acceptance ond dedication
of the new ?125.000 infirmary is now
growing short for the city of Platts
mouth and the community in gen
eral to start getting ready to partici
pate in this important event.
The various Masonic bodies of the
state have joined in the erection of
this vtiy important unit of the fu-
rr crt.-i tr ATucinnif Hnmp and it is
fitting that the city of Plattsmouth,
w here the Home i? located, take for-j
mi'l step" to Fhow its appreciation of;
the honor cf being chosen as the lo- j
cation of the Home.
While the ceremonies will probab
ly largely he confined to the Masonic
fraternity, there are many ways in
which the city can aid in the plans
for the dedication.
Under the plans of the Masonic
Home board, invitations are to be ex
tended to all the various branches of
Masonry in the state to participate
in the dedication ceremonies which
will undoubtedly mean a very large
number will be here, those from
Omaha. Lincoln and other nearby
cilies sending very large delegations
to take part in the ceremonies of the j
dr.y while from all sections of the
state there will probably be some
representation present.
The new building, as those who
have visited the structure well know,
is one of the best arranged and equip
ped buildings of its kind in the state
and one that represents the desire
and wish of the members of the fra
ternity throughout the state that
their sick and ailing brethren be
cared for in comfort and with every
possible aid for their physical ills in
the new infirmary.
The building is a fine up to the
minute forty-bed hospital in which
there has been nothing spared to
make it among the best in the state.
At the session of the chamber of
commerce directors this morning the
matter of the forthcoming dedication
was taken recognition of and a com
mittee of E. H. Wescott and II. A.
Schneider appointed to co-operate on
behalf of the Plattsmouth civic body
in any way possible with the plans
of the Nebraska Masonic Home asso
ciation in properly carrying out the
dedication.

AUTO TUENS OVEE
From Thursday's Daily
Yesterday afternoon while Dave
Wooster. one of the employes at the
Palace Shining parlor, with a young
man. Herman Meisinger. was out
skimming over the highways in the
car of Mr. Meisinger, Dave received
the worst of the damage when the
car turned over.
The car had been cut down and
made into a type somewhat similar to
the racing models and its bright
green body has often attracted the
attention of the passersby on the
street. Yesterday afternoon the boys
decided to try a short run out into the
country and accordingly they were
journeying out the Louisville road
at a rate it is claimed of not over 15
to 17 miles an hour. It was desired to
make a turn and Dave who was at
the w heel turned and the wheels lock
ed with the result that the converted
racer was hurled over as well as the
occupants. Mr. Wooster suffered a
scalp wound some three inches long
and as well had the left shoulder
bruised and strained, fortunately no
broken bones being sustained in the
mix up.
COUNTY BOARD AP
PROVES EXTENSION
QF WORK ON ROAD
Following the Completion of the Pro-
ject Sunning Five Miles West
Union Platte Eoad Next.
From Thursday's Faily
The board of county commissioners
at their session this week voted to
ask federal aid on the Platte bottom
highway, extending from the north
ern city limits to the Platte river,
linking up all the way through Cass
county of the King of Trails highway.
This work will be asked with the
distinct understanding, as offered in
the resolution, that it is to be the
next piece of federal aid road asked
after the five miles on the O street
road from Union to Nehawka. which
has also been petitioned for, is com
pleted. This piece of work lias long been
under fire as the spring and fall rains
and snows made the road very dis
agreeable especially in the low places
and the action of the commissioners
is the first step to complete the road
as far as Cass county is concerned.
The graveling is expected to fol
low very shortly the action of the
federal and state government in com
pleting their grading and general
preparedness of the road for service.
The action of the board of county
commissioners is to be transmitted
by County Clerk George R. Sayles
to the oSce of the state engineer and
will take its place among the other
projects that will be tarried out to
close up the roads that are not re
ceiving federal aid for a part of their
length.
Sarpy and Douglas county are ex
pected to follow at once with plans
for grading and graveling the high
way through their county and which
has been so much urged by the travel
ing public.

tainly a great difference in wet
weather over the former conditions
of the roads after a heavy rain and
that travel i not delayed in the least
now when the gravel is available.
The small section of roadway from
the end of the county graveling on
into the paving in this city has be
come quite slippery, the travelers
state, but this condition is not to be
for long as a graveling district is be
ing created that will care for the
improvement of this part of the road
way and make it as fine a piece of
road as any in the county and give a
hard surfaced and paved highway
from the Otoe county line clear thru
Plattsmouth.
