DOING VERY NICELY
From Wednesday's Daily
The reports from the hospital in
Omaha state that Virgil Perry, who
was operated on there last week for
an attack of appendicitis, has been
rallying very nicely from the effects
of the operation and is now showing
the best of condition and his rally
ing powers has been very pleading to
the members of the family circle and
gives the brightest hopes that he may
soon be able to return home and re
sume his usual activities. During the
illness of Virgil, his brother, Russell
Perry, of Harrlingion, Texas, who has
been here since the death of the fath
er, is remaining to look to the con
duct of the farm.

From Wednesday's Daily
Last evening the members of the
Plattsmouth Woman's club met at
the auditorium of the public library
to start out the new year of work in
the club field and a very large num
ber of the ladies were in attendance.
The president, Mrs. Allen J. Beeson
presided in her usual pleasing man
ner and conducted the routine busi
ness of the club.
One of the main features of the
business session was the election of
the delegates to the state convention
which will meet at Lincoln October
27th to 29th inclusive and the ladies
named as their delegates Mrs. L. L.
Turpin, Mrs. J. F. Gorder and Mrs.
W. R. Holmes while the alternates
selected were Mrs. J. F. Wolff, Mrs.
E. J. Richey and Mjs. R. B. Hayes.
It was decided by the meeting to
hold the next session at the public
lie library on Friday evening, Sep
tember 17th and at which time the
year book work, will be completed
and the report made to the club
meeting with the members getting
lined up on the various events of
the club year.
The work will be conducted along
the departmental lines and with n
great many new features that will
make the work more thorough and
interesting to all of the club mem
bership. There will be no names in
the year book where the members are
not paid in advance for their dues
it was decided at the meeting.
Mrs. Beeson at the close of the
meeting told of the courtesies ex
tended to her at the California state
federation convention as a president
of a visiting club and which gave
her a greater appreciation of this
honor. .
The club is extending an invita
tion to all of the ladies of the city
to join in the membership and if they
have not been approached they can
apply to Mrs. Beeson for the membership.

From Tuesday's Daily
Editor The Daily Journal
Arrived yesterday afternoon, and
glad to be here which is "home" to
me. Appreciated very keenly the fine
boosting I found in your good paper
since I was here last Monday.
Could not help but be wonderfully
impressed with conditions in and
about Plattsmouth, as I made the trip
from Kansas City by day so as to get
a closer view of the surrounding
country. Crops around Plattsmouth
look better than at any point between
here and Kansas City.
While in Kansas City spent 60me
considerable time in the Kansas City
Chamber of Commerce offices, person
ally with Mr. JVM. Guild, president of
that organization, whom I found to be
a former resident of Plattsmouth. Mr.
Guild had only words of praise for
Plattsmouth, and its fine civic spirit.
Also talked with Charles W. Arm
our, president of Armour & Co., at
Kansas City, and he stated Platts
mouth was located in the most pros
perous section of Nebraska, and that
this as a wonderful country thruout
this territory and Plattsmouth is a
splendid city. It is fine to realize
others appreciate what a good place
Plattsmouth is, along with our own
home people.
Had a good visit with my old friend
Mr. Woods, assistant to J. F. Holden,
vice president of the Kansas City
Southern R. It. Mr. Woods stated
their company had been responsible
for many of the Nebraska potatoes be
ing sent to Arkansas for seed, on ac
count of the superiority of the Ne
braska spud.
Mrs. Davis arrived with me and Is
most enthusiastic over this city, and
we are happy and proud to make it
our home. I feel confident I am go
ing to receive the undivided and en
thusiastic support of this entire com
munity, which means a great deal to
me. I want you all to come in and
see me at the Water Works office and
get acquainted.

Indian Chief
An Educator
Caupolioan's Greatest Ambition Has
Been to Elevate His
Race.

Indian race to the intellectual level
of the white man and the lifting of
the white man to the spiritual and
physical level of the Indian," are the
1 words of Chief Caupolican, distin
; guished Chilean Indian, who is de
lighting Orpheum patrons this week
. with his repertoire of songs and bal
lads. In vaudeville, as well as on the
lecture platform. Chief Caupolican has
been seriously engaged in acquaint
ing the American public with the
present conditions of his race in view
of fostering further interest toward
' the education and general develop
ment of the Indian,
i His vigorous personality, his
marked intelligence and his entertain
ing ability have all combined to make
. him a universal stage favorite.
! Before entering vaudeville, Chief
: Caupolican was a Chautauqua lectur
' er. At the present time he is also
very much interested In the organiz
ing of Indian schools In the United
! His particular hobby is golf and
he is naturally a lover of the great
outdoors. He has great athletic
Btrength and his Btature is character
istics of his ancestry. San Francisco

Rev. Gardner
is Greeted by a
Large Audience
Increasing Interest Shown in Christ
ian Church Revival "What We
Need in Church," Subject.
From Wednesday's Daily
Evangelist Nelson Gardner used as
the subject of his sermon last night,
"What We Need in the Church." By
the use of the blackboard he made
daubly clear the message reaching the
minds of his hearers through tne
two avenues of hearing and seeing.
The diagram was a wheel with 12
spokes with Christ as the hub or cen
ter. The evenagelist said: "Chist 1c
the center of the church. The 12
spokes are named as follows:
1. "The church is a divine institu
tion. Matt. 16: 16, IS. Jesus said,
"Upon this rock I will build my
church." His church. It belongs to
no other.
2. A truth inspired church. "We
do not put our trust in men's teach
ing. II Tim. 3: 16, 17. If the Bible
makes one perfect, we need nothing
more.
3. A spiritual church. More spirit
uality is needed in the church. Too
much of the world in the way of
dancing and card playing has been
brought into the church. The class
of neoDle who participate in these
worldly amusements are not soul win
ners. We need more of the spirit of
the apostolic days.
4. A missionary church. Here the
Great Commission was emphasized.
There are people in Nebraska 50
years old who have never heard a
sermon. Nebraska has one county
without a church. Folks there have
gone 75 and 100 miles to church.
5. A Philanthropic church. Some
people claim they have nothing to
give. Christ was poor but he gave
more than any other. When the
church learns to thith there will not
be so much worrk about finances.
6. A progressive church. That does
not mean getting away from God's
truth, but going forward with His
truth.
7. An agressive church. A fight
ing church. Sometimes a church be
comes a hospital instead of an army.
We go backward when we cease fight
ing. Paul said: "I have fought a
good fight." "Onward Christian sold
iers marching as to war," should be
our song.
8. An energetic church. One that
is working.
9. A cheerful church. The man
who knows that his sins are forgiven
has a right to be happy. "The man
worthwhile is the one who can
smile."
rlO. A preserving church. Never
give up.
11. A soul saving church. We are
to win others.
12. A heaven bound church. We
want that none shall be lost.

Competition in Words
One who goes into the market to buy a motor
car today is naturally confused.
He has read the words BEST and GREATEST so
often that they have ceased to be convincing. Where
AIL is best, he reflects, there can BE no best.
Thousand-dollar cars have been described to him
in ten-thousand dollar language. And vice versa.
He finds himself the target in a war of adjec
tives; the helpless victim in a gigantic competi
tion of words.
And so he is forced to rely on chance the advice
of friends or his own limited experience.
Dodge Brothers, Inc., have never participated in
this verbal competition.
They are content with the position they have long
maintained in the far more vital competition of
HONEST VALUE.
They have continued steadily to improve their
product, not only in comfort and beauty, but
BASICALLY beneath the body and hood where
fundamental values lie.
Yet they have not unduly stressed each ' better- '
ment that has marked the steady progress of
their motor car toward a higher perfection.
And when economic conditions or greater; sales
have permitted them to reduce prices without
reducing quality, they have announced the fact
without excessive emphasis.
Unexaggerated truth is not spectacular. But in
the long run, implicit public confidence has been
Dodge Brothers reward, and this they propose to
preserve FOREVER by continuing to build just a
little better than they tell.
