most attractive that has been held
in recent years in the city, the scene
of the banquet being one of the great
est charm and with a glow of colors
that made the banquet hall one of the

the snowy linen and the china and

handsome scene. The nut cups were

color scheme and added their part
in the completion of the decorations
of the room.

HAS A CLOSE CALL
From Friday's Dailv
Yesterday afternoon Donald,
young son of Sheriff and Mrs
the
E.
P. Stewart had a very close call from
a very serious accident at the alley
way on Fourth street between Main
and Vine street. The lad was com
ing south on Fourth street and as
he stepped out into the alleyway
a Ford car driven by Norris Cum
mins was coming east along the alley
about the same time. The car was
close to the boy when he was first
sighted by the driver of the car and
it was impossible to stop the car.
Donald threw up his hand and this
probably saved his life or at leas-t
prevented his serious injury as he
was struck by the car and thrown
backward out of the way of the car.
Had he fallen forward he would cer
tainly have suffered very serious in
jury. The net result of the accident
was that Donald sustained a badly
bruised arm.

Liston Residence Property Purchased
and Will Be Added to Holdings
of the Association.
From Friday's Daily
The Nebraska Masonic Home asso
ciation has made an addition to tlie
land that forms the grounds of H.e
association here and one that will
complete the possibilities of the land
scaping of the grounds that surround
the Home building and the new in
firmary building.
The property that has been pur
chased is the Liston residence and
two lots lying just east of the In
firmary building and which the as
sociation have long desired to com
plete their plans for the final henuti
fications of the grounds and which
will now be made possible. The Lis
ton property has extended into the
ground owned by the association
and made it impossible for the full
realization of the landscape work
but this will now be pushed to com
pletion. The north portion of the
Liston lots may be used as the lo
cation for a large fountain as it is
located slightly lower th;m the other
portion of the Home grounds and
would make an ideal spot for an art
fountain.
The old Vallery residence that has
stood on the east portion of the old
Home grounds near the new infirm- .
ary building has been purchased by
Herman Thomas, Missouri Pacific
agent, and who will have the build
ing removed to a lot that he has
across the street south and to which
site he will have the residence mov
ed as soon as possible.
These changes will add very much
to the attractiveness of the Home
grounds and makes the holdings of
the Masonic Home association a groat
deal more valuable.
