Urea tor need is arising all the time
for books on local work. We find it
iiiH.vsi'ili to purchase- r..l that is
wanted. In one instance the librarian
borrowed books on upholstering from
the Omaha public librarv to supply a
ne .1 for that work.
iwo new books on electrical en

ward Patterson was the victim of a
very painful and annoying accident
that will make it necessary for him
getting around by the way of crutches
fn the next few days.
The Plattsmouth party were rid
ing in the Ford coupe of Gerald Smith
and as the car was loaded to its
capacity. Edward Patterson decided
to ride on the running board of the
car on the return trip from Louis
ville and thereby hangs the story
of the accident. The Plattsmouth
boys were coming home and on the
highway several miles west of the1
city Gerald noticed a car approch-
ing from the direction of Plattsmouth
and he states that he turned over
to the right of the road as far as
possible to pass the car as Patter
son was on the Ion side running
board. The approaching car how
ever came on and crowuea me car
of Smith, grazing the side of the
tenders of the Ford and catching the
foot of Edward and lacerating it
tiuite badly. The car. which tae
local boys state resembled a Dodge
touring did not slacken its speed and
continued on its way the driver ap
parently net realizing that he had
an accident or not caring.
The party drove on to this city and
medical aid was secured for Edward
who was found to be suffering from
a very severe gash on the right ankle
that required some fifteen stitches
to close up and the result of the
accident will be that Edward will
have to propell himself around with
the aid of crutches.
