Horseshoe Pitching Contest and Ball
Games Attract Much Atten
tion at Ford Day.
The visitors at the big Ford d3y
celebration Friday at Murdock were
more than entertained by the sports
program that was made a part of
the features of the entertainment
prqgram and consisted of the big
horseshoe pitching contest between
the shoe hurlers of Cass. Sarpy and
Saunders counties, as well as the
baseball game between Eagle and
Weeping Water.
There were eighteen horseshoe
pitchers entered in the contest from
the three counties and some very fin?
scores were rolled up y the players
which showed that this section can
produce some real championship ma
terial in this sport. The following
were the winners with their scores:
1st Glenn Wagner of Gretna, 9
games, 279 points.
2nd Lawrence Wise, Weeping
Water, 8 games. 263 points.
3rd John Thompson, Ashland. 7
games, 270 points.
4th John Barger, Ashland, 5
games, 226 points.
5th Harry Smith, Ashland, 5
games, 223 points.
6th Andy Wagner, Gretna, 5
games, 209 points.
The remaining twelve pitchers did
not get in on the prizes but their
scores showed that the winners had
heavy opposition, winning many of
their games on but a few points.
Jack Ivereon and George Sayles of
this city were the only local entries,
Iverson making a ve ry good showing
by winning two games and losing
the third by but two points, scoring
a total of 163 points.
The baseball game, which was a
feature of the day, resulted in a vic
tory of Eagle over Weeping Water
by the score of 10 to 4, but in a
hard fought finish by the Weeping
Water players. The game stood 6 to
0 in favor of Eagle until the first
half of the eighth inning when
Weeping Water in a batting rally
made four scores. Eagle came right
back at their foes in the last half of
the eighth and added to their lead
by annexing four more runs, hold
ing their opponents scoreless in the
last frame of the game.

TO REDEDIGATE THE
GALAHAN CHURCH
Newly Constructed Zion Evangelical
Edifice to be Rededicated with
An All-Day Service.
The Zion Evangelical church,
country appointment of Elmwood
circuit, which is three miles south
west of Murdock, known as the Osl
lihan church, 13 nearlng completion.
The Lord willing, this church will
be re-dedicated to the worship of
Triene God on Sunday, September
6th. 192 5. to which services the pub
lic is heartily invited. Rev. F. F. Jor
dan, of Elgin, Illinois, will officiate
at the dedication services.
There will be conducted in con
nection a revival campaign which
commences on Wednesday evening,
September 2nd. under the direction of
Evangelist F. F. Jordan and will con
tinue over Sunday, September 13th.
Rev. C. Jannen. presiding elder of
Lincoln-North district, will also be
with us over Sunday, September 6th,
and render able services.
The Callihan Evangelical church
has rendered very valuable services
for many years in the western part
of Cass county and especially among
the German speaking people in spir
itual things. About seven years ago
they commenced to realize the need
of using the American language, es
pecially in the Sunday school and
Endeavor, and so year by year the
use of the American language has in
creased so that at present practical
ly all the services are conducted in
the American language.
Last November the Sunday school
board realized that to do efficient
work for the youth new equipment
must be added. Suggestions were of
fered and so one thing led to anoth
er until the congregation decided to
rebuild the entire church. Thus im
mediately after the holidays work was
commenced when the old building
was raised 4 i feet and a full base
ment with ten foot ceiling was built.
The foundation is of dark red pressed
brick.
An addition. 12x32 feet, was built
to the north, of which 12x22 makes
the platform and 10x12 a secretary's
room in which there is a stair lead
ing outside as well as into the base
ment. An addition 10x15 feet was
built to the tower, which makes the
main entrance into the basement and
plso a stairway that leads up to the
main hall. The tower was also re
built. A Green's Colonial furnace and a
Kohler electric light plant have been
installed, as well as art glass windows
including four figure windws, "The
Good Shepherd," "Rock of Ages."
' Christ Knocking at the Door" and
"Christ in Gcthsemane." New fur
niture was installed in the main audi
torium, consisting of new pews, pul
pit chairs, communion table and a
Kimball piano. The entire building
was painted on the outside and deco
rated on the inside, making it appear
not as a rebuilt church but as an im
posing new edifice. The total cost of
these improvements is about $9,000.
Across the road lies the cemetery
which also has been made more beau
tiful in that there has been erected
a new fence and columns of pressed
brick at the entry way, making it
more attractive and paying respect
to those of our loved ones who have
jone on before.
The aim of the congregation is that
they may continue to be a blessing to
the community and an honor to the
name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
F. Stock. Fr.. is the superintendent
of the Sunday school; Mrs. Martin
Bornemeier is president of the Wom
an's Missionary society; Walter Mei
erjurgen is president of the Evangel
ical League of Christian Endeavor
and E. H. Sohl of Elmwood is pastor
of this congregation.
It is the hope of the Journal to be
able to print a picture of this build
ing in Thursday's semi-weekly edi
tion. MILLER-FINKLE

daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Mil

FARMERS HOLDING
BACKWHEAT CROP
Remembering Late Rise in the 1924
Price, They Store Grain for
Better Returns Later
Washington, Aug. 27. Instead of
rushing it to market direct from the
threshing machine, American farm
ers are this year storing wheat in
greater quantities than for many
years. Department of Agriculture
statistics show that no extraordinary
wheat shipments are being received
at primary markets. The drop, say
government experts, cannot be as
cribed to the smaller crop, but rth
er to farmers" general belief that
prices will be higher this winter.
Why They're Holding Wheat
Among the reasons for the tendency
to store wheat, three given as of
greatest importance are:
1 The short crop in the United
States. Latest government estimates
indicate that the 1925 crop of spring
and winter wheat will be the small
est since 191". The present esti
mate is 680,000,000 bushels, as com
pared with 870,000,000 bushels last
year. In 1917 the total was 636,
000,000 bushels.
2 The sharp upward tendency
which wheat prices took during the
late autumn and winter of last year.
Many farmers who sold their wheat
during the harvest period of 192 4
saw prices mount 50 and 60 cents a
bushel above the figure they received.
Their desire to avoid a like experi
ence this year is making them reluct
ant to sell.
3 Ease of money conditions makes
it possible for farmers to obtain
bank credit to enable them to carry
their wheat crops. At no time in re
cent history have credit conditions
been easier.
30c Higher Than in 1G24
Reluctance to sell is adhered to in
the face of prices which average 30
cents a bushel above the price of
last August. In late August, 1924,
the Chicago price for wheat fluctu
ated between $1.25 and $1.30 a bush
el a price which brought the farm
ers about $1 a bushel at the farms.
Recently wheat prices at Chicago
have varied from $1.60 to $1.65.
The smaller wheat crop in the
United States is not reflected in
other parts of the world. Early in
dications of the Argentine crop are
that it may be large, though esti
mates may be greatly changed before
harvest some months hence.
Canada is enjoying an excellent
Blue Ribbon Gasoline!
Is a strictly straight run, not a blended product. It
will stand the U. S. government test. We invite com
parison.
Our !Mor and Tractor Oil!
Every drop of our Motor and Tractor oil is refined
from pure Pennsylvania parafine bate crude. Penn
sylvania is acknowledged as the world' finest. With
its high 4Flash' and "Fire" point it will not break
down under heat. We ate anxious to terve you.
