From Tliurfflay's Dfily
The interest in the community
building program of the American
Legion which has as itc goal the se
curing of an auditorium that could
be used for community gatherings,
conventions or isrge public gather
ings, is meeting with a very general
response from the public that is
ost gratifying and while the cam
paign i now reaching the individual
stage and making the work neces
sarily slow, the responses are more
than gratifying to the committee in
charge and indicate the very general
desire of the citizens to see the new
building well under way.
One of the latest aids that the
fund has received was today when
the directors of the chamber of com
merce voted the sura of J100 to the
fund and which will provide a nice
donation to The K'in" -..ist are dailv
pouring into the fund for the new
building. The committee that has charge of
the campaign for the building have
been delighted with the way that
he ladies of the city are getting
back of the movement and the most
enthusiastic boosters that the civic
auditorium has found hf.s been in
the ranks of the ladies of the city.
The members of th W. C. T. U. have
voted the sum of $2i for the use of
'he auditorium and nlPo have a small
collection Pt their meetings that
eoes into the fund and will materi
ally help swel lthe sum total of the

dies haves also boosted -the Legion
project with their donation of $25
to the fund and which represents a
very fine contribtuion from this or
ganization and one that is mot thor
oughly appreciated by the Legion

Such co-operation and aid brings
nearer and near tne realization oi
the hope for a real city auditorium
in the next few months that will be
a credit to the city.

BAIN BEINGS BELIEF
From Friday'8 Dally
The rain that came at an early
hour this morning brought a great
relief to this community and ended
an excessively hot period of several
days in which the temperature here
was at full mid-summer heat. The
hottest place in the 6tate yesterday
as reported, was Fremont with 103.
while Omaha and Plattsmouth, with
9 8 degrees, furnished a hot second.
North Platte was only a few polnt9
behind, with 9 6 in the shade.
The weather man holds the hope
of cloudiness for thi3 section and not
so warm in this part of Nebraska and
