MAKES GREAT IMPROVEMENT
From Wednesday's Dally
The Bekin building at 6th and
Main streets has received a great deal
of Improvement since it was pur
chased by Mr. Bekin, the well known
Omaha capitalist, and not the least
of these is the changes that the own
er has made in the courtyard in the
rear of the building.
For many years this court yard
was one of the eyesores of the bus!
nefs section of the city but such is
not the condition now, as the new
owner has gone after the task of
making a clean up and as the result
that section of the city is a credit to
any other part of the town. Where
before there was a court yard litter
ed with dirt, debris and all kinds
of material and waste matter, there
Is now a large concrete paved court
yard that is clean as a pin and makes
a 1,000 per cent improvement in the
appearance of the building and the
neighborhood.
The real community spirit that
Mr. Bekin has shown in his property
interests here is one that the city
can feel proud of and that- he ha3
become an extensive property owner
here is the source of a great deal of
pleasure.

Where Customers Feel at Home
Telephone No. 14 r Nehawka, Nebr.
ESTABLISHED 183&
A number of the residents of Cass
county have started the very worthy
move to secure a radio set for the
use of the residents of the county
farm near this city that will aid
in making their lives a little more
pleasant and giving them a touch
with the outside world. The aged
and unfortunate people who .make
their home there have little from the
regular routine to make life more
enjoyable and the good people of the
county are getting together in a
move to secure a radio that may aid
in a little pleasantness for them.
The move is one that certainly
will meet with a strong support from
all sections of the county as one of
the most laudible nature and which
should receive the backing of the
big hearted and kindly people of the
county.
It has been arranged that those
wishing to make donations -to the
fund do so by sending their con
tributios to the Nebraska State bank
at Weeping Water and the Platts
mouth State bank at Plattsmouth.
This is something that everyone
should be able to give some small
amount at least and will make a
gift that will be most thoroughly
appreciated by the resident of the
county farm.
