Armistice Day
of 1918 Seems
Very Far Away
To Even the Veterans Wto Eper
ienced War's Greatest Thrills
the Day Is Distant.
From Thursday's Dally
The passing of Armistice day
brings Lack to many of the residents
vivid memories of the event eight
years ago that brought to the close
the actual hostilities of the greatest
war of all time, altho in the tide
of time the day to the average citi
zen is far away in the past as the
eight years that have rolled away
since the close of the war have dim
med somewhat the vivid recollection
of the stirring scenes in this nation
as well as in the old world where the
storm of war had touched.
In our nation fortunately there are
few of the lasting marks of the war ,

VERY PLEASANT EVENT
From Friday's Daily
This morning at a very early hour
a charming little lady came to the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Grado
ville on West Main street with the
announcement that henceforth she
was to he a part of the household.
The little lady weighed seven and
one-half pounds and with the moth
er is doing very nicely. The event
now makes a family of three child

Commissioners
to Check Over De
linquent Taxes
Real Estate That Kas Been offered
for Sale and Not Purchased
May Be Taken Over.
From Friday's Pail
The board of cownty commission
ers are planning toftake a step that
will result in clearing the tax list
of a large number of pieces of prop
erty on which there i.Te taxes of sev
eral years standing and when com
pleted the plan should result in re
storing the property to a tax paying
basis.
The law provides that when real
estate is offered three years in suc
cession for sale for delinquent taxes,
the board of county commissioners
may start suit for quieting title to
the property and placing the tit It
to the property in the county. Thry
can then offer the property for cale
at auction and the purchaser receive
a deed that will place them in full
and unchallenged possession of the
property and through the purchase
of the property by new owners it i
hoped to clear them up and place the
property back on the tax rolls to be
an asset instead of a liability.
The commissioners by checking up
property tax each yferr will be able
to keep the taxes cleaned up and
make it possible to secure some re
turn from the taxes that have been
allowed to lapse through the years.
There are a large number of lot?
and small parcels of land in this
city especially that can be cleaned
up in this manner and which it i
hoped will result in cleaning up a
large amount of now useless prop
erty as far as taxation purposes is
concerned.
Queen Marie
Goes Speeding
Through City
Some 600 Persons Gather at the Sta
tion But Fail to Seceure View
of Monarch.
Prom Thursday's Daily
The passing of the special train
over the Burlington conveying Queen
Marie of Rumania, attracted some
COO residents of the city to the Bur
lington passenger station today dur
ing the noon hour but the monarch
of all the Rumainians was not vis
itble to the eye of the Plattsonians
that filled the depot platform and
strung along the lines of the track.
The train was a double header and
was dressed in the Rumanian nation
al colors and the queen's car was
marked by the royal coat of arms of
the queen but this was as close as
the local people came to royalty as
there were none of the party visible.
The large crowd was somewhat
disappointed in not being able to
wave a greeting to the queen but
her majesty showed good judgment
in not appearing where she would
be in competition with so many of
the local queens who have Marie at
least tied for looks.
The royal party so it is stated were
at lunch when passing through the
city and this was one reason why
the party were not on exhabition.
However the thrill was there of a
real queen even if she was as shy
as the queen that is needed to make
"sixty queens" in a good pinochle
hand.
STATE LEVY LOWER
The levy for the taxes for the year
1926 made by the state shows a very
marked decrease from that of last
year according to the notification re-(
ceived from the office of the state
auditorium. The valuation of the!
county is somewhat lower than the!
year 1925, being $56,589,043 for the
year 1925 and for 1926 there was a
valuation of $56,255,044.
The state levy for the year 1925
for Cass county was $132,984.08,
while the levy for this year as shown
by the records in the office of the
county clerk shows $101,259.08, .a
reduction of some $31,000 in the
amount that Cass county will have
to pay over for the state maintain-ance.
D. A. R. Make
Location of Flag
Presentation
Spot Where Ladies cf Piattsmouth
Presented Flag to Co. A.
1st Neb., in 1861.
From Fridays Ialy
The Fontcnelle chapter of the
Daughters of the American Revolu
tion have long been working on the
location of the exact plare where the
ladies of Piattsmouth made their pre
sentation of the flag to Co. A.. First
Nebraska volunte?rs in ISfil and
have finally located the scene of this
important historical event of the
early Nebraska history.
The location of the scene of the
flag presentation has been given at
a number of places over the city by
various old time residents who were
here at the time that the troops were
mustered for service in the civil war.
a number fixing the present site of
Garfield park as the scene of the flag
presentation while others fixed up
on the place now occupied by the
residence of Perry Coffman on Wash
ington avenue, ns the place where
the hirtory making cver.t took p!?.rc
Others have agreed that the flag pre
sentation took place on what is now
known as Wintersteen hill, this be
ing the site given a number of the
elder histories of the state. A short
time ago the ladies of the local I).
A. R. appealed to Hon Francis E.
White of Omaha, who was a lad in
the days of "61, to try and determine
the place where the flag had been
presented and he stated that it was
at the grove of Oak trees that stood
just south of the present little park
way leading to Wintersteen Hill and
this spot has been set as the official
scene of the flag presentation.
The ladies of Piattsmouth in their
determination to do their part in
encouraging their husbands, fathers
and brothers in the great war for the
preservation of the nation made a
beautiful silk flag, the whole being
made by hand work and after the
mustering of the company on June
11, IS CI, the flag was formerly pre
sented to Co. A., the first company
to be raised in the territory of Ne
braska for the purpose of joining in
the fight to save the union. The flag
was given to the company on that
summer day in 1861 by the ladies
amid the most impressive ceremonies
and was accepted on behalf of the
company by Captain Robert R. Liv
ingston, pioneer physician of Nebras
ka and who had largely recruited
the company.
This flag was borne by the com
pany with honor in the war and took
part in some of the most notable bat
tles of the Mississippi valley cam
paigns in the south where the degi
ment was a participant at Shilo and
Fort Donelson and in the upper Mis
sissipfi campaign that opened the
river to the Union armies and was
the most serious blow at the southern
resources that the war hfcd made and
was practically the starting of the
breaking down of the forces of the
south as it divided the south and
held in Union hands their greatest
seaport. New Orleans.
When Co. A., was mustered on
June 11, 1S61 the officers of the
company were: Robert R. Livingston,
captain; A. F. McKinney, first lieu
tenant; N. J. Sharp, second lieuten
ant and John G. Whitlock. first ser
geant.
Later Capt. Livingston rose to tne
rank of Colonel of the regiment and
brigadier general and commander of
the army in Arkansas, while both
Lieut. McKinney and Lieut. Sharp
became captains. In the war cam
paigns Sgt. Whitlock was promoted
to lieutenant and Joseph Johnson be
came first sergeant.
POLICE GIVE VERSION
From Saturday's Dally
The members of the police force
and particularly the members of the
night force have been annoyed by
the complaints made relative to the
large amounts that were charged for
batteries and globes during the past
month and which the council has
supposed were used by the police.
Officer Jackson of the night force
states that while the police hav?
more than the usual amount of use
for the flashlights at night, they have
not been using an unusual number
and part of the cost that the council
had been misled into thinking that
the police were enjoying a wild ex
travagance of globes and batteries
was in fact caused by the purchase
of large bulbs for use in the street
electroliers that happened to be out
of commission and which the police
had replaced.

High School
Operetta Next
Entertainment
Real Treat is Promised in Operetta
"Lelawala," to be Given by
Local High School.
From Friday's Daily
The instructors in charge of the
Indii.n operetta, "Lelawala," are put
ting the choruses and special cast
through some very intense training
in preparation for the big event that
is srhc-c';:led f:r December 16 and 17,
at the Pormele theatre.
Interest on the part of those par
ticipating is very keen and the
coaches who have charge of the train
ing note with considerable pleasure
the splendid co-operation and qual
ity of work being "done.
Costumes for this production will
be furnished by the Theo Lieben &
Son costume bouse of Omaha. Miss
Weyrich and Mrs. Gorder are the
committee on costuming.
The special orchestration has ar
rived and music will be furnished by
an orchestra composed of some of
the best musicians in Piattsmouth.
The stage setting and all dramatic
work is under the direction of Miss
Bosse, head of the Dramatic depart
ment of the High school.
We note with regret the departure
from Piattsmouth of Miss .Helen
Sharp, who had been selected to take
the leading role as "Lelawala," and
who had been carrying this very suc
cessfully. As no young lady in the
High school cared to take this very
difficult role, it was decided to try
to secure the services of some former
Piattsmouth High school girl. A vote
was taken by the cast and Miss Helen
Wescott selected, she having been
prevailed upon to carry this part in
addition to her regular duties at the
Nebraska Wesleyan university. This
makes it possible to present the op
eretta on the scheduled date.

From Friday's Daily
Last evening the members of th
tlir' t rnnnc of tlif Ttnv K-mitS nf
! t h is c ity held a very interesting ni et-
tended by a very large numt-r of
the scouts and a pleasing attendance
of the parents of the boys who com
prise the scout membership.
I . The ceremonies of the investiture
service were held in the gym of the
high school and five members of the
tenderfoot class of the scouts were
advanced in rank, three being ele
vated to second class and two to first
class scouts while seven of th boys
were presented with the merit bad
ges of the organization in recogni
tion of their very pleasing services
that the boys have rendered.
The services were in charge of
Scoutmaster Floyd Flack and the
local executive committee and prov
ed very interesting especially to the
parents as the boys in their impres
sive way carried out the obliiratior"
of the scouts.
Mr. Flack, who has been having
the greatest success in his handling
of the scouts since the commencement
of the school year, was introduced
to the members of the audience and
briefly explained the aim of scouting
and its benefits and also the pleasure
that he has found in working with
the local boys in this line of work.
Mr. Flack has made a very agre.sp.ive
campaign in the interest of the scout
work in the proper development of
the boys of the city who are fortu
nate enough to be members of the
three local troops of the scouts.
The main address of the evening
was by Clyde Heese of Nebraska City,
the new district director of scouting
who is operating in the newly form
ed regional area of Cass, Otoe, Nema
ha nod Richardson counties. This
regional organization provides for
the sustaining work of scouting by a
number of the larger towns and has
prepared a camp at Nebraska City
where the scouts of this area may en
joy their summer outings. In addi
tion the regional work calls for the
maintaining of scout work in the
smaller towns by the erection of a
school of instruction for the promo
