Special Price for One Day Only! Kum in a Get a Lunch FREE! Phone No. 29 Union, Nebr. The ticket sale of "A Race for a .Million" is being pushed to a limit and it is expected that a very good crowd will be in attendance at the high school auditorium on Friday evening, November 12 when the Cen tral Building P. T. A. will present this splendid three act comedy, un der the direction of Mr. L. D. Hiatt. Tickets are 50c and may be pur chased from the various members of the P. T. A. or at the office of Mr. W. G. Davis, secretary of the chamber of commerce. Jt is a play that will be a real treat for you so don't miss it. John Gustin. of Murdock, has just bought three pure-bred Holsteins for his dairy herd. In talking with Mr. Gustin Friday he said: "The farmers are awakening to the importance of high-grade dairy cows on Nebraska farms, where feed is cheaper than any where in America, and alfalfa puts the butter fat in the milk." Councilman Kunsman called at this office. He stated that there is nothing finer than a good spirit of confidence and co-operation between the City Council and the Chamber of Commerce orgaization. Judging from the good work being done on road 75 in the, south limits of the city, this co-operation is being actually demonstrated. Douglas has promised to gravel this road at once. Thank you, Mr. Kunsman. The Ohio State Journal says: "We suppose all our great cities have more or less Detroit in them and there are men right here in our church who are unreservedly for Christianity as long as it doesn't hurt business any." Friday over twenty-five called at the Chamber of Commerce office, in cluding citizens, tourists, "drum mers" and prospective corn shuckers. Mrs. Hogue of Mynard, looking for corn huskers advises: "We certainly are beginning to know out In the country that the Plattsmouth Cham ber of Commerce is working for the farmer's interest." You citizens who want a hospital; a swimming pool; your stores occu pied; your machine shop running; your alfalfa mill operating can se cure these things ultimately through your Chamber of Commerce, if thru your memberships you will give it power to reach out, and start these good things this way. Sometimes a penny has crippled many an institution. The Wheeling Intelligence says: "A hick town is a place where the boot- leeerers never make enough money to get out of the 'criminal' class." A "Doubting Thomas' explained lamely a few days ago he would join the Chamber of Commerce as soon as he saw how it "turned out." All same, turn on the water and put the fire out, AFTER the building is de stroyed. Some vision! I I ItL' I 400 COR& FLAKES i tutu joMrJ ALLBRAN fADVTOfT NEW OATA 3 755? S PEP There surely are 500 citizens in Plattsmouth with enough love and faith in their city to take up its problems in union by co-operating with the Chamber of Commerce? It is said, "If wishes were horses, beg gers would ride." If wishes were dol lars, Plattsmouth wouldn't have any idle7 buildings. Jack: How did you like the foot ball game? Doris: O, they didn't play. Just as they started, one man got the ball and started to run away with it, and they all began to jump on each other. W. G. DAVIS, Secretary. gpAre you a member of the Chamber of Commerce? As soon as the farmers begin to enroll in this body they will be able to comprehend the problems we have. and it is their brains and suggestions we need along with our merchants' and citizens' ideas to keep this from running "amuck." There is always a chance for an honest error, as well as for an honest difference of opinion, in every problem. The thing is to be able to acknowledge the other man's honesty and sincerity in a difference of opinion. Luke Wiles called to have a chat He says there are no mail order cat alogs left in his mail box. Isn't it fine to be loyal to your own mer chant, your city, your own church makes a glow run down one's back One commandment from ten taken from the Humboldt Standard left me by Friend Rea:. (For mail order house buyers): "You shall call on the business people of your own com munity for help and credit if you meet with hard luck or sickness. We don't j know you unless your orders are accompanied by cash." Ata-boy, Friend Robb of the Robb Candy company is a "bear-cat" when it comes to brokering. Suggested he put his talent at work brokering Plattsmouth bread in Nebraska City, Weeping Water. Jjnion, Murray and oiner towns ior' us. nausraoum makes better bread than Omaha, and can deliver it as reasonably. "Bear down" on 'em for us, Robb! A man the other day stated: "Of course the Chamber of Commerce would look after the interests of those who subscribe to it, in prefer ence to those who do not." Wrong! The men who subscribe to this orga nization intend that it stands for "Plattsmouth and Vicinity" not any one group or any clique or any other influences. That is why we need you fellows who haven't subscribed, CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank the many kind friends for their sympathy and as sistance to us in the hour of our sorrow and particularly the members of the Plattsmouth golf club, those who so generously furnished cars and served as pall bearers as well as the friends who sent the beauti ful floral rememberances. Their kindnesses will long be very tender ly remembered. Louis Horsack and Family. Marcelling and hair dressing. Mrs. Luther Pickett, Coates block, Platts mouth.
